Obama will be a president who campaigns for his next term from day one of his first term. He is already preparing for the next election, and will take whatever actions necessary to facilitate his victory in 2012. The entire four years of this presidency will be gathered under the principles of campaigning not of governing. To govern implies obedience to the constitution and the Bill of Rights. Obama has already made clear, in radio address and other venues that the constitution is flawed. Governance is a regulative function, not a constituting function. Obama wants to constitute a new America, not govern the America that is given to him. Change in a negative sense means getting rid of all the things that prevent America from fulfilling its constitution as given by the Founding fathers. Change in the Obama plan is in its positive sense -the ‘constitution’ of a whole other rulebook. Crisis is the perfect way as Rahm observes when he publicly said that under stress and in crisis people will agree to all kinds of things they’d never agree to otherwise. THe simple fact is there is no time for Obama to both get us to do things we would never do otherwise AND, at the same time, do the numbers as listed in this article. It is not an accident or simply a symptom of a bumbling inexperieneced new president that we are looking at. Obama could do all the things stated above. He is doing something else, the logic of which we should examine, and this ‘something else’ will make perfect sense once we figure out what exactly he is doing, that is, once we realize he is not fixing the economy: instead he is constituting a whole new world.

“This is exciting. We should elect more stealth candidates to find out what they will do as president.”

LOL! This will ultimately boil down to a single question: which side will the military join when “the troubles” come?

Mongoose, you are right on the money on each count. I have done some extensive research and can verify everything you’ve said. I just want to add for the sake of those who believe Pelosi is pulling one over one BO [poor prez] couldn’t be farther from the truth. Both Pelosi and BO are working the plan together… the stimulus is intentional so that in 2010 they have reason to put away with capitalism and bring in communism. Partly because the stimulus is actually a bailout. BO owes ACORN some money for all the hard work they put out there to deceive the youth into voting for BO [that was 66% youth]. BO owes international companies for fronting him the cash to TAKE OVER the White House – that’s right, I said TAKE OVER, and for buying out the mainstream media to cover only BO and not the republican side. He also owes special interest organizations like the MoveOn.org and the gay movements for blocking bloggers from getting the truth out to the public via net. There is much more going on than what most people really know. DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE ON THE WEB. KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON.

Tertium:We ARE being run by idiots;and those who voted for The Affirmative Action messiah,exemplify, the cultural degeneracy,and political ignorance,and hysteria that began in the 60s. We are now a third world nation run by corrupt politicians and left-wing plutocrats,empowered by the votes of hysterical cretins. It’s over.

Jimmy Carter II so far. I want him to succeed, not with his programs, but we don’t need the world to perceive we are run by weaklings.

What a crappy week indeed – Republicans are painted as the party of do-nothings (while it’s true that Obama is not as popular as two weeks ago, go look to see how Republicans are faring), Kissenger praises Obama, Russia takes a fresh look, the stimulus bill is headed for passage, the tax-vetting problems – while embarrassing, were certainly forgotten in the wake of horrific unemployment numbers – which only drove Obama’s key message that crises is inherent, The Muslim world praises Obama (which makes the Zionistas squirm, but everyone else kinda pleased), Lilly Ledbetter signed (again, republicans hate women’s rights – most others will be pleased) – oh, and this out from Gallup THIS MORNING:

“The American public gives President Barack Obama a strong 67% approval rating for the way in which he is handling the government’s efforts to pass an economic stimulus bill, while the Democrats and, in particular, the Republicans in Congress receive much lower approval ratings of 48% and 31%, respectively…The data in particular show the sharp divide between the public’s views of how Obama has handled efforts to pass a stimulus bill and its views of how the Republicans have handled this — a divide that quantitatively produces a 36-point approval gap.”

So J-Rube – perhaps Obama will be calling you for MORE great advice…

NOT!

#115 vivo:

“Neither, just showing the statistics. Yes, statistics can be misleading. But they are a starting point.”

It’s the “destination” someone has in mind from that “starting point” that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

The Administration has usurped control of the Census from the Commerce Department, so if they’ve a mind to, they can fudge the census numbers to ensure that their political allies get a disproportionate share of the next reapportionment of Congressional representation.

If this Congress passes this “Fairness Doctrine”, this will effectively end any realistic chance of broadcasting any opposing views that point out what is going to happen when the Congresses of 2011-2020 are installed.

Boy…y’know, if Bush had tried floating these two pieces of legislation, the core of those who support the fellow who claims he was born in Hawaii would have had a collective aneurysm.

I don’t know why I should be surprised, a President who refuses to definitively put to rest questions about whether he is Constitutionally qualified to hold the office wants an illegitimate and bogus Congress to play with.

The reassertion of State Sovereignty now percolating through the various legislatures should give any Federal officeholder very deep misgivings.

It could be interpreted as the first step toward another series of Secessions…

“This has to be the height of wishful thinking and rationalization.”

No, it’s a truth NOBODY wants to admit.

Besides, all the criticism has been super -amplified. Wait a couple of months and the new “crisis” will be splattered all over the media.

Remember, tweak, tweak, tweak.

“vivo
“Offering illegal aliens an easy path to citizenship”

What’s wrong with that?

Because ILLEGAL is the operative word here. You clearly expose your very dangerous position on all things with this statement.”

No, the operative clause is “easy path to citizenship”. Many illegals are hard working people contributing to society. They want to stay here. As long as they don’t break any other law, they are welcome.
