		<description>mik - &quot;I hope things don’t end up being leftist or right. nobody has time for that now. that’s just distraction.&quot;

  Aside from sounding nigh well insane given the division lefties have spent eight years working hard to create, your laughable comment is immaterial.  The Obama Hussein broom that’s supposed to sweep clean is going to sweep away everything, even the goodies the left is counting on.  By the time he’s done, he’ll be lucky to have three people he can call his posse, much less a nation following him. 

   Although I never thought I’d agree with it, Savage was right when he said lefties are actually insane.  They depend on the machine continuing to work in order to rebuild the machine to their liking, but they just destroyed the only leverage they had over the machine.  If it keeps on going this way into the spring of the coming year, Congress Critters will need bales of currency beside their desks just to buy a cup of coffee with.  Under those circumstances, things aren’t going to go the way the numbskulls among us are counting on.  It’s not your Grand Daddy’s country full of trusting souls anymore.  After eight years of spreading distrust of government, these idiots think they can rely on people to support, yes, the government.   I think the response to the coming mess is going to be more typically American than the Euro-envy lefties understand, magnified by ten if one or more large terror incidents occur after Obama Hussein “reboots” our relations around the world.

  The last time the complete idiots had a real, “game changer” in office he was such an idiot that he let Congress shift all of the blame onto him.  This time, Obama Hussein isn’t that stupid by a long shot.  He’s got the new media and the means to control the airwaves.  Congress, at best, has rapidly bankrupting newspapers and their own good name.  No contest.  Congress can’t hide from the consequences of their own actions this time.  Before Obama Hussein is finished with his first term, the vast majority of Americans will have decided that they never want an incumbent to be able to run for re-election again, no matter what the national office.  

  So, it&#039;s a great future ahead.  The first time in a century that the US actually has a chance to return to being the US rather than the half-European, half-American, mess the elites have molded it into.  We&#039;ll get it fixed; it&#039;s just going to be a lot tougher and more painful than most Americans understand.  It’s also going to be more typically American than the lefties are ready for, but that’s a good thing.  They’re prepared for the last war, not the one they declared.

  Have a nice day</description>

RE: This &#039;Fight&#039;

If he IS choosing his &#039;fights&#039; carefully....

....why is he ignoring the one about his lack of a bona fide birth certificate?

		<description>&quot;That might not be New Politics, but it is very smart politics.&quot;

It is also duplicitous, dishonest, calculating, self-serving, and two-faced.

When other politicians break promises and go back on their word, they are called liars. When Obama does the same things its &quot;pragmatic&quot; and &quot;smart.&quot;

Obama is a liar, and those who voted for him thinking they were going to get &quot;transformative changed&quot; were duped. He isn&#039;t going to change squat. Moreover, he never planned to!</description>

		<description>In the approach to WW2 in Britain our Prime Miniter back then, Neville Chamberlain had a policy of choosing his fights carefully. It later became known as &quot;appeasement.&quot;

Obama is not President yet (not even President elect until Dec 15 as I understand the process) but he is already finding the con man&#039;s art of telling people what they want to hear will not enough to govern the world&#039;s most powerful nation.

Given BO&#039;s utter cluelessness about the plight of car industry and the extent of global financial collapse I think that excellent satirist PJ O&#039;Rourke was bang on when he asked in this blog a couple of weeks ago if it was &quot;Too soon to talk about a failed Obama presidency just because he is not yet President.&quot;</description>

		<description>mk writs:

&lt;i&gt;&quot;Picking your battles are easy when you don’t actually have to fight.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

mk, excellent sentiments! This one is getting framed and going up on my wall. 

The tenor of commentary from the right has been one of [justifiable] relief that he is not turning into a left-wing bomb thrower, almost showering him with pre-electionesque hosannahs. But, after the MSM honeymoon is over and someone points out that the king, in fact, is sans garb, then we&#039;ll see how he stands up. 

Image can only levitate so far; I&#039;m betting Carter II.</description>

		<description>all obama has to do is work on healthcare, jobs, and the economy and he should be good. those things should be his priority. all the other things....doesn&#039;t he have employees to work on them?

I hope things don&#039;t end up being leftist or right. nobody has time for that now. that&#039;s just distraction.</description>

		<description>Great comments everybody.

I don&#039;t think Barack&#039;s ideology will ever get in the way of his own self interest. 

Is this bad or good? Search me. 

Productive worker, though, adds an unsettling thought to the mix; the idea that Obama and his crew are corrupt. If that&#039;s true, all optimistic bets I have on this administration are off. 

In a real crisis, I don&#039;t want corruption to be part of the equation. Greed, pride, confidence, arrogance, intelligence, fear, stubbornness, lack of experience, ambition, untruthfulness are all personality aspects of Obama I can live with.

But the corruption aspect bothers me.</description>

		<description>Bull shite.  He hasn&#039;t picked any battles.  He&#039;s acting like king of the world and the news media is letting him.  He hasn&#039;t fought any battles because he hasn&#039;t had to.

The rubber will meet the road when he&#039;s President and Israel bombs Iran.  Or another brutal terrorist attack happens.

		<description>The classic strategy for a politician who doesn&#039;t want to be held to his promises is to make something else his defining issue, something that will keep enough of his followers happy that they won&#039;t turn on him.  Socialized medicine is just the ticket.  And the key to making it work is to give it another name, a name which stresses all the wonderful things people want to get without explaining that you are slowly sawing the wings off the airplane to get them.</description>
