Day: April 19, 2011

Silver-tongued, not tongue-tied. A team player on the world stage, not a lone cowboy. A man who’d put a stop to reckless Bush policies at home and abroad. In short, Barack Obama represented Change.

Well, that was then. Now, on one major policy after another, President Barack Obama seems to be morphing into George W. Bush.

On the nation’s finances, the man who once ripped Bush as a failed leader for seeking to raise the nation’s debt ceiling now wants to do it himself.

On terrorism, he criticized Bush for sending suspected terrorists to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and denying them access to U.S. civilian courts. Now he says he’ll do the same.

On taxes, he called the Bush-era tax cuts for the wealthy wrong, and lately began calling again to end them. But in December he signed a deal with Republicans to extend them for two years, and recently he called the entire tax cut package good for the country.

The Waterfront Restaurant is pleased to announce that this tax year it has paid more in U.S. taxes then General Electric.

We are absolutely delighted to be successful enough to be able to contribute to the United States defense and welfare and understand how in these difficult times a company like General Electric could be unable to contribute.

So when you mail in that check today, think of those corporations that are less fortunate then you are and how much they would like to help but just can’t.

The Waterfront, serving meals, employing locals, using the local bank and paying our fair share for over 32 years.
