Forward, but to where?

Barack Obama's campaign slogan is "Forward". The problem is that forward can be a good direction or a bad direction. If your car is headed forward towards a brick wall, that is a bad direction. If your boat is headed forward towards a waterfall, that is a bad direction. If your platoon is moving forward towards an enemy ambush, that is a bad direction. Barack Obama's forward is a bad direction. It is forward towards government policies that keep poor people enslaved in poverty and reliance on government programs, rather than helping to raise them out of poverty. It is forward towards a middle class that sees fewer and fewer opportunities because of higher taxes and increased regulation. It is forward towards a rich and superrich who will remain fat and happy, like they always do. It is forward towards a health care system that will be more expensive and provide less access. It is forward towards ever increasing indebtedness which will eventually crush the country. There are apparently many people in this country that believe in Barack Obama's forward direction. God help us.
