But the "magic", as with so many of these trends, is not in the speaker, it's in the audience...
Can anyone remember one line from that speech???
The liberal media also lost big on Wednesday night.
Many of the 65 million watching saw for the first time that Barack Obama is nothing more than a media creation, a myth, an illusion. It will take time, but many will begin to blame the liberal media for selling them this bill-of-goods.
Will the liberal media realize they’ve been caught red-handed? They’ve cared not a whit about credibility, but they do care about their relevance. The question becomes then, will they realize they’ve lost that too. My guess is they won’t, as this should have been shown to them by their monumental shellacking during the 2010 mid-term elections.
A good talk—I contend that he learned very little from his time as President—he is and was, unable to get the finer nuance of the Job—Its not about hoops to hurtle as it is leadership—He lacks it. We have the job of bus driver for the nation to a 13 year old hot dog—who said he was a great driver—but only had a learner’s permit.
A very good article, thanks for posting.
A key tenet to conservatism is the belief in natural law, and to understand natural law is to compare things to things around them.
It is a conservative’s way to understand and buttress the view that slavery is wrong, by comparing. If one compares a man to a piano, it is clear that a man is not a piano, and vice versa. Compare a man to a giraffe or a monkey and one comes to the same conclusion. Likewise, when one looks at a black man standing next to a white man, it is clear beyond any doubt that they are both men. So to look at any object of property and a man, it is an ineluctable conclusion that a man cannot be property.
When I read this article, it was clear this type of thought process was at play by the author. If one can place a competent person next to an incompetent person (and see their capacity for competence clearly as if they were being seen as visually as the stripes on a zebra) then it is clear that one of them did not belong in the same grouping as the other.
I am not a huge fan of Mitt Romney, but I will give him his due here, in spades. By all accounts, he was better prepared to deal with all of the subjects discussed from a simply a base level of knowledge about them (he knew more about them without even having prepared or crammed for them) and spent the time and effort to sharpen and prepare himself by elevating his knowledge level and adjusting his focus on the context and presentation of those subjects.
As someone who has lived under Mitt Romney as governor, I can say that my comment about having a better foundation on the subjects in question is well founded. I have listened to him speak extemporaneously without notes or a teleprompter, and he can present his views without contradicting himself or making a simple factual in his first sentence or paragraph. That is something most liberals do constantly. Biden does it naturally because he is a bozo, and Obama does it whenever he speaks without a teleprompter because his basic grasp of truth, reality and the situations they spawn is a mile wide and a nanometer deep.
One has only to touch that shallow river to immediately understand there is no foundation. And that is what happened at the debate. Everyone who watched (I did not) saw the finger poke into that shallow body of water called “Obama’s Competence” and hit bottom at the point of touching the surface.
Please add me to this ping list. It was excellent
Very well put...post of the day!
A compliment from FrankR is a compliment indeed! Thank you...
It was so much easier, in 2008, for the fraud that is Obama to predict how great life would be under his leadership, than it is for him, in 2012, to explain why his predictions didn’t exactly come true.
"He's an a$$h0i3"
Good article bump.
Very well written and insightful.
“Can anyone remember one line from that speech???”
No, but I remember Hussein screwing up the Oath of Office. That was clear foreshadowing of what the next four years would be like.
Thus began the Reign of Incompetent Terror.
*Whew!* This guy can write, that’s for sure!
Great stuff, thanks for sharing!
You got it, Californian. You are now on the ping list.
The world will little note, but it’s not what your country can do for you because Eleanor hates war, can you hear me now?
Thank you for your very instructive comments.
