The time is ripe for a Republican to articulate a alternative vision, and to do so in a manner that appeals to independents and solid Democrats.

Obamao just gave the rhetorical finger to a CEO conference in DC that centered on taxes.

Yup. And blocking the proposed “cradle to career” education expansion (50% longer federalized education than the current system) would sure be nice.

No one wants to be the first one to smite the Numinous Negro.

Rush has done this, to the lasting benefit of the nation.

Once the first blow lands and lightning doesn’t strike anyone down, the rest will attack freely.

And this is why the thugs of Big Brother have launched a Two Minute Hate campaign against Rush. He can bring down the whole house of cards if he isn't stopped.

But Rush isn’t elected—that’s the difference between him and actual politician Republicans.

I caught it on the radio, he said something like:

“And that will be the rate, you’ll have to (deal with it) and try to make money (at that tax rate)”

He did mention something about maybe lowering the corporate tax rate, not that he would, only that he would look into doing so.

A lot of those who voted for him, are now questioning their decision already!

Afterall, they thought they'd have a mortgage check & car payment in the mail the first week after he was inaugurated! LOL LOL

He’ll make a nice speech, flash a nice smile, and his numbers will go up again.

Years ago, there had been no black major league baseball managers yet. Somebody said, “No problem hiring the first black manager, but I wouldn’t want to be the first one who fired him!”

Close to three-quarters expect that government spending will grow under this administration.

Meaning more than a quarter of Americans polled are TOTALLY clueless.

Americans will exert their will upon their elected officials, the wills of the MAJORITY.*****

I agree with you 4Speed. The true American majority is finally being stirred up by this complete incompetent fool and his cronies who are now terrorizing our lives. It’s high time we put an end to this mess once and for all.

....and the more well off liberals I know are now showing some regret.

They liked all the socialist ideas of the Great “O”, but they didn't think he would really try and do them ALL in his first 100 days. I think they expected the Clinton approach of good speeches and no action.

Now they look at their investments and shake their heads.

Republicans need to quit being so timid. We're not going to stop his insane socialist agenda if we play with kid gloves.

Bears repeating.

Hey Steele: are you listening???

now we just have to get someplace other than FNC to quote a poll from Rasmussen and we start the inevitable destruction of the Obama Invincibility Myth.
