Senator Gregg

-
Senator Gregg, a Republican from NH, who accepted then declined President Obama's appointment to Secretary of Commerce, as a guest on State of the Nation on Sunday and declared that the Obama Budget would Bankrupt the Nation. Does Senator Gregg realize that the Nation was Bankrupt by the Republican Economic Policies, the unwarranted invasion of TWO sovereign nations, and the deregulation of the Financial, Investment, and Insurance Industries by the Republicans since 1981.

Senator Gregg bowed out of being the Commence Secretary after the Republican Leadership made disparaging comments about Republicans who joined the Obama Administration and by right-wing ideologues who have talk radio shows. Now Senator Gregg is spitting out the rhetoric that these right-wing radio hosts spew daily. When President Clinton left office the Nation had a surplus and a growing economy, with the population rising through the economic classes at a rate never before seen in the History of America. Within one year of taking office the policies of George W. Bush and The Republican Congress turned a National Surplus into a National Deficit. Senator Gregg is disillusioned if he thinks the Obama Administration is the cause of the current mess.

Most World Economists agree that the way to stimulate an economy as ravaged as the U.S. Economy has become is for the Central Government to spend money on massive infrastructure projects that will immediately create jobs, cause demand for goods and services, and keep money flowing into the hands of consumers every week. What is Senator Gregg's proposal, to maintain the policies of tax cuts for the rich, deregulate and eliminate government oversight, policies that have proven themselves to be failures by their implementation over the last eight years.

Senator Gregg claimed on State of the Union that the Obama Budget will Bankrupt the Nation. New Flash for Senator Gregg, The Nation is already Bankrupt, it was led into receivership under the policies of George W. Bush and The Republican Party in conjunction with Military Excursions, Corporate deregulation, and non-existent oversight. Senator Gregg can not see that this economy is already in ruins and that the right course is for the Federal Government to become the spender of last resort.

The Greatness of The USA

The Greatness of the U.S.A. is in the founding documents of the Nation. The United States of America Founding Fathers were products of the age of Enlightenment. As students of the Age of Enlightenment the Founders of the United States were liberal intellectuals who had a high ideal of the structure of the Government that they wanted to form. The Founding Documents were constructed by men who had a vision for the future and an understanding of the past. Using the tools of the Age of Reason and The Age of Enlightenment the Founders were able to construct documents that would remain dynamic and changeable while still maintaining a foundation that would be constant. The Founders were influenced by the French Document the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen in writing the Declaration of the United States of America. After declaring that Men and Citizens were entitled to the Natural Rights bestowed through life, the Founders laid the Foundation of how the new Government would...

President-Elect Obama

-
It is so refreshing to see a man who acts and speaks like a President at a Press Conference, for that matter even seeing the President at a Press Conference. It seems like President-Elect Obama has already given more Press Conferences that G.W.Bush did for his entire eight years, not that that is a bad thing because just watching G. W. Bush at a Press Conference was usually an embarrassment to the Nation. President-Elect Obama is not only at ease with the Press, he is polite, informative and direct. I can't even remember the last President we had that made a Press Conference an interesting event to watch, I guess Kennedy. At least President-Elect Obama feels it necessary to reassure the American People that he recognizes the serious financial situation that this Administration has put the Nation in, and that he is fully aware of the consequences and is assembling a team of advisers to delve into the issues on day one. Remember all the rhetoric from the Republican Presidential Candi...

First Happy 4th of July, a day to commemorate the founding of a new ideal in governance. A day that should remind us of the Revolutionary values of this Nation. many of the Founding Fathers warned in their writings that in order for this experiment to succeed the People must always be willing to engage in Revolutionary Change to protect Freedom and Liberty. So High Above will no longer be published on a daily basis but on an as warranted basis, which may mean once a week or even twice a day as the situation warrants. Over the coming weeks So High Above will catch up on the Obama accomplishments and failures, the Democrats inaction, Governor Sanford, the Republicans in hiding, where did the money go, Senator Al Fraken, Govern...
