Indies are susceptable to propaganda.
They remind me of the people that only go to church on Christmas and Easter.
Perhaps a few reminders of that 9.4% unemployment figure would be in order.
WTH is the matter with these people? If Bush had these unemployment numbers, agitprop media would’ve been screaming for his head in more shrill terms than they already were.
The economy will be what sinks him or not in next years elections. What he is doing now is simple, he decided to copy what Clinton did and just take a popular sentiment position on everything but his core policy issues to keep from losing his base.
He isn’t going to be a leader now that he lost the house and doesn’t have Nanci to carry his water there for him, he is going to be a candidate for the next two years and bend in the wind for the swing voters.
I see this as Politico of the Leftist bent joining in on the current kickoff of the Obama disinformation campaign for reelection in 2012.
If we look about almost all directions we can see a massive startup of the machine that is going to inundate us with OBS for almost two years. This article is part of that startup IMO.
Politico got that direct from sacred mouth of the Holy Creator of Crop Circles.
Obama is up to 52% approval in Rasmussen, and even higher in some other polls.
Many people here mistakenly believed there was some nationwide “revolution” taking place against the left and big government. The truth is, there is no “revolution”. Conservative grassroots are asserting themselves via the Tea Party and pushing the GOP to the right, but the country as a whole has in no way rejected the social welfare state.
The minute the new Republican House tries to cut much of anything, the usual howls of protest will come from the media and the majority of the public will direct their ire at Republicans for trying to “starve kids”, “steal old people’s social security”, etc. We’ve seen this before in 94’95’ and were about to see it again.
Things will have to get much, much worse before the sheeple in this country realize the nanny state is unaffordable and always fails. It could still be a very long time before the masses even begin to accept this.
We’re Independent and Proud.
And we’re not fence sitters.
We’re Old School American.
IF so, which I highly doubt, they are dumb
