Recall an ominous passage in his otherwise joyous election-night speech: "The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even in one term." Maybe the tone was suggested by one of Obama's economic advisers like Jason Furman or Austan Goolsbee.

No, no, these words were obviously suggested by John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King.

"All this will not be finished in the first 100 days. Nor will it be finished in the first 1,000 days, nor in the life of this Administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin." - JFK

"I just want to do God's will. And he's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land! I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land." - MLK

I think Joe “Kinnock” Biden might be ghost writing his stuff...

“Nope, sorry you are wrong. The media influenced PEOPLE elected him. You have your opinion, I have mine.”

That’s fine. You prove the adage; giving power to a person or an enterprise that is a proven failure is naive. Which is why I referred to you as Junior. I hope it is your youth that has you in thrall to these ink stained morons and not your intellect.

“Democrats in Congress were tossed out in 1994.”

Exactly. Look for that to repeat in four years and for the same reasons. Obama can NOT handle this situation and his “brain trust” seems to be largely those who have already failed...ready to repeat their miserable failures again. Our task is not to repeat ours once we regain the upper hand again. And that WILL happen.

And I hope you have the ability to understand that your assessment is yours not mine. You are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine. It's probably a sign of intelligence when you can accept the fact several people can each interpret a single event differently. But then I am sure you are smart enough to understand that, right?

Have a nice night and let's just drop the subject and quit wasting each other's time.

No. That’s how insightful you were...you have no point

I'm sure not long ago you were convinced Obama had no chance in the general election either.

A positive lady. Her personality is the perfect antidote to the rigid formality that pervades within the Republican Party, and gets us slaughtered among younger voters and minorities. She gives the Republicans the same thrill factor, that “kick”, that Obama gave the Democrats.

No, that's why the Messiah is going to name her to the USSC ... so she won't be able to run in 2012.
