Reason #12564 Why Obama Is A 1 Term President

If President Obama wants to win re-election, he has to be perceived that he actually cares about the middle class.  Right now, all Obama is trying to do is shove his values down the throats of the American people.
Obama is coming to Vegas and Boulder City and is going to show off the solar panels of Boulder City.  Well, What Obama and the media are leaving out is the failure of a solar panel plant, leaving Boulder City with a $3,000,000 budget deficit.
Sol Bio is a green energy in Boulder City, NV. Well, it is name only and maybe a web site. Well, they have about 2,200 acres in Boulder City and they owe about $3 million in lease payments to the City of Boulder City. Well, that's a huge chunk out of their $22.7 million budget.
From the Las Vegas Sun: Boulder City is still waiting for a $3 million lease payment, more than six months late, from a renewable energy firm that planned to build a solar panel plant in the Eldorado Valley.
City Manager Vicki Mayes had added an item to the agenda for Tuesday’s city council meeting to discuss a guarantee by Advanced Energy Innovations, Inc., to take over the lease from SolBio Energy for the 2,200-acre piece of land and pay the balance. But she withdrew it at the meeting’s outset.
The unpaid bill has left a $3 million hole in Boulder City’s $22.7 million budget for the 2011 fiscal year, which began in July. The $2 billion project was approved in December 2009, and SolBio planned to break ground in early 2010.
Mayes announced three phases of freezes and cuts at the city council’s Aug. 24 meeting to address the gap if the revenue doesn’t come. She confirmed Tuesday that the city had implemented the first phase on Sept. 1: a freeze on capital spending and a freeze on hiring vacant positions, such as an empty police sergeant slot.

Obama doesn't want lower gas prices because that is against his policies of green energy, support of public transportation and trains, and the use of alternative energy sources.  He wants to force his policies on us, even though the majority of Americans are against his policies.
Now, presidents can do little to lower or raise gas prices, but the public believes they do.  Certainly, liberals believed George Bush could influence gas prices, but they are quiet when it comes to Obama.
But now that gas is at $4 a gallon and rising, which causes other food and non food items prices to rise, people are going to be voting with their wallets and this will make Obama a 1 term president.
It's the economy, stupid, as Bill Clinton loved to say and it is true.
