What happens now?

Now that Obama is going around the country "spiking the football" about bin laden, what is next? What should he be focusing on? Jobs, school, the economy, the national debt? How about all of the above. The government that we have elected has failed to do its job and the only people that it is hurting is the average American citizen. $4 for a gallon of gas. Are you serious? We have oil in this country, probably enough to last us for a long while. If the government would allow us to drill in our country like the middle east countries do we would once again be the richest country on the planet. This would also cut the fundings of the terrorist signifcantly. Why does the government not want this to occur? Because through lobbyists and other ways, the members of the government are profitting from these prices. Democrats and Republicans alike are to share the blame. It is not just Obama's administration, it has been going on for a long time. The average government offical isn't in politics to make a change or difference in OUr country. They just look out for there own best interest; making their personel bank accounts larger and get relected so they can continue to do so. I think that the American people need to wake up and elect people who will actually do what they say and make a positive change for the USA! One thing we can do to reduce the debt for instance: Stop fighting other peoples wars. Unless of course we can profit from it by taking their oil supplies or make them pay for the war themselves. We should also cut all foreign funding, why are we giving Pakistan billions of dollars every year? Just so they can fund terrorists. Yes, I agree that we should have gone after the people responsible for the 9/11 attacks, but not just the group, also all of the countries that are allowing these men to reside in. We need to elect people that can see these points clearly and are not blinded by money and greed. If we are going to war with a country like Iraq and we bomb the hell out of it, why are we, the taxpayers, the ones who have to pay to rebuild it? I say let them rebuild there own country. No one helped us out after the civil war in our country. Why should we get involved in others civil wars. Let them fight and stand up for themselves. Save our text money on more important issues such as National Security, more defense systems, better schools, keeping jobs here, and infastructure. Things need to change, and Obama has not lived up to his promise of change for the last two and a half years, so I think it is time for another change at the top.
