     Lately we hear a great deal from Mr. Obama promoting what he calls giving every American a fair share but how fair is it? Is it really an attempt to help his political allies over their opponents? The unions have certainly benefitted from Mr. Obama's initiatives in order to keep union dues flowing into Democratic campaign coffers. The Democrats added 25 billion to help auto makers in President Bush's original 750 billion bailout request. Obama later loaned GM and Chrysler billions to keep these industries afloat at the expense of dealerships and bond holders. He continued to prime the pump with " Cash for Clunkers ", and a $7,500 tax credit for such hybrids as the Chevy Volt which costs around $45,000 and is as popular as a Yugo. As if this union favoritism wasn't enough, he stacked the deck on the National labor Relations Board with union cronies and filed suit against Boeing for wanting to open a non-union plant in Georgia.

    Where was the fair share for legal Americans looking for work when Obama filed suit against Arizona and other states for trying to uphold the nation's immigration laws? Where was the fair share for Americans working in the oil and gas industries when Obama loaned billions to campaign bundlers for bankrupt green energy companies such as Solyndra and Sun Power, blocked Keystone Pipeline jobs, and delayed resumption of drilling in the Gulf of Mexico while loaning billions to Brazil to drill off their coast? Where was the fair share for America's energy consumers as we watch gasoline prices rise and the cost of transported goods rise while new EPA regulations close coal fired plants and our nation's trade deficit rose by over 250 billion a year in oil and gas related products? Where was the fair share for America's seniors when Obama raided an already unsustainable medicare program of 500 billion in order to pay for a new deficit producing program called Obamacare which also gave exemptions to his union allies. Where was the fair share for tax paying Americans, their children, and grand-children when Obama raised the national debt by 4-5 trillion in 3 years without any spending cuts and to the point that the interest on the national debt for 2011 was 454 billion ( almost 1/2 a trillion )?

     The truth is Obama's fair share is nothing but a crass attempt to reward his friends in order to get re-elected without any regard to the nation's best interests.
