Weeks ago, I obsessed on a political point: would President Barack Obama mobilize his millions of voters to apply political pressure on Washington to pass his policy initiatives. At that time, the stimulus package was the top item on his agenda, and the White House was not doing much to activate the Obama millions to boost support for the legislation in Congress. As the stimulus fight proceeded, Organizing for America, the spin-off of the Obama presidential campaign, did zap out an email to its list of 13 million and asked those supporters to hold house parties to discuss the recovery package. But discussing something is not quite the same as fighting for it.

Only way to get these Obama voters fired up would be a massive bailout for them to pay their cable bill and get dad out of jail.
Most of them don't know who dad is.
Don’t forget vouchers for ciggs...
Of course he will probably create an Obama brand...
Oh my God...seriously...his base.
They were convinced they were getting big screens and bigger free money checks;

Seriously, his base — all this politics stuff is just putting them to sleep — they are ready for the money and bling from the Gub-ment;

Now why would this be necessary? Aren’t we all told daily how much he is loved and revered?
His bas awakening can only mean ACORN types. This could get really ugly quick. They are all about freebies for their loyalty.
We are looking at a nasty uphill fight.
Awakening. Perfect word. They’ve been sound asleep from the beginning. I do not think he wants them to wake up.
Only a "community organizer" could believe he can rub raw the resentments of the privileged class...dumb shitz.
I was getting ready to prepare a really good dinner.
Now I’m borderline past nausea.
This is indeed the question. And the answer is because he does not have enough votes to pass the legislation. Harry&Nancy are calling for help.
The Blue Dog Demos realize that they are hitched to the Obambi wagon and it is spiraling out of control down a steep hill. They are concluding that Obambi has ruined his Presidency in 7 short weeks and they want off the ride.
But it is too late IMO, the confidence lost since November cannot be easily restored. What we need of course are massive tax holidays and cuts, but this will never happen. The producers are hunkering down, we are seriously spooked and there is not much Obambi can do to unspook the small businessman right now.
I went to a dinner party Saturday night with some friends who were die hard Obambi supporters, they just could not wait for the inauguration. They never mentioned his name ...
There will be another 2.5 million jobs lost by the end of the year. In June when they know the 2nd quarter GDP is tanked they will write every household a check for $5,000 and saddle our kids with another trillion in debt. Watch him rally these losers, the damage is done and little can change it now.

I don’t know what Commie Corn is complaining about. Hasn’t Obama got everything he has hoped for from the Politburo?
Does his base have a 401k, business, job, illness or eat food? If so, they may soon be next to you and me at the Tea Party!!
Oh, the MSM will run video of those protests 24/7 to hope to boost the appearance of support for the Obamamessiah and the Corruptocrats. Hmmmm...I wonder if they will have giant papier-mache puppets of Rush at them....
Unfortunately for them it will have quite the opposite effect. There is nothing like video of a bunch of hippies, “professional students”, “community activists”, race/ethnic warriors and the other dregs from the fever swamps of the “reality-based community” ralllying for their gubmint handouts to really pi** people off. It will be the equivalent of tossing a supertanker full of gasoline on a fire.
The Corruptocrats, the 0bamamesiah and the rest of the ‘reality-based community” are so clueless. It is probably because they know nothing about the people of this country. In fact they are quite afraid of us. They think they are in control, but they are not.
This is what Biden was calling for when he said that Obama would be tested
After the 1st 100 days, I question whether he or the other RATS even have a large base anymore.

Government cheese is not Wagya steak!
Lots of Hussein II’s voters are now collecting unemployment and on food stamps.
- CHANGE -
They got it!
Yep, the Obama tobacco tax starts April Fools Day. Something to point out to the poor people addicted to nicotine.
Whoops, they removed my post! Guess the next time the guys post a bikini babe I’ll have to push abuse!
.
I’m calling the FBI!
Combine racial politics, illegals, vote fraud, and wealth transfers and Baraq is scary close to a permanent majority I’m afraid.
LOL, yeah, it’s a serious issue!
I can recall when it happened to you.......snicker
David Corn is an idiot, IMO!
Wait until these idots who voted for him feel the painnnnnn, because they will feel the pain. At this time he will not be the first black president but the half white president. Spike Lee’s comment that if you have one drop of black blood in your viens that makes you black will not hold true. PREPARE TO RUN THESE GUYS OUT OF TOWN BFORE IT’S TO LATE!
You cant wake up zombies. They are mindless, they have no will of their own, they . . . Here let me let someone you all know and love, Bob Hope explain it better than I can..

True in 1940 - - and much more so today...
Thomas Jefferson warned about taxing our meat in our drink, in our necessities and comforts, in our labors and in our amusements and that the bulk of society is reduced to mere automatons of misery, to have no sensibilities left but for sinning and suffering... And the fore horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in it's train wretchedness and oppression

You got that right! Actually, we are a fight for our lives. If we want to win we have to fight to win.
2,700 of them that worked for Gulfstream in Savannah , GA voted themselves right out of a job. Actually all2,700 of them probably did not vote for obama but a good porporation of them probably did.
Only a "community organizer" could believe he can rub raw the resentments of the privileged class...dumb shitz.
His supporters will never be next to me. I despise them more than I despise obama.
How do you awaken something that spends most of its time in a coma ? You could reanimate it i suppose ?
The essence of war is violence. Moderation in war is imbecility.--Admiral Sir John Arbuthnot Fisher
That pretty much sums it up.
Oh yes, Hussein is about to call his army of Zombie Zero Worshipers out to the streets.
They better not get in my way. I’m not interested in their Cult.
Just like the morons with 0bama and UAW stickers next to their NRA sticker.
Union stupidity has no limits.
.
Wait until card-check and union wages and mega bennies hit - and corporate and SS and Medicare taxes skyrocket
Layoffs and closings and bankruptcies galore as companies either go abroad or shut down forever
All while Hussein II imports more illegal aliens to pump up democrat voter rolls and bankrupt hospitals
- CHANGE - It changed Germany and Cuba
“And there are no indications how Obama and his political strategists intend to use the reactivated millions. But there surely are fights ahead. And it certainly won’t hurt Obama if several million troops are ready when he decides it’s time to call them up.”
Very Hitler like.
I think you are all thinking of the wrong base he motivated his base big time and continues to do so!

It is not the fault of philosophy departments. High school graduates not able to think clearly are probably too old to help. The education system that passes this dead weight on to you is to blame. Thank you, NEA.
When I started college in 1968, Logic (Phl 101?)was a requirement for graduation, for all majors. I enjoyed that class, and couldn't understand why so many classmates had such a hard time with it.
