Afterburner with Bill Whittle: Merchants of Despair

Who is responsible for the current economic malaise? If you ask Bill Whittle, it's Obama's pals like David Axelrod, Harry Reid and Tim Geithner, some of the many Merchants of Despair. These merchants are costing taxpayers trillions and creating deep national divides based on class and race. Will the despair continue for another four years? Find out.

Of all the editorial comments I've seen about the Obama administration, this one sums things up better than I can remember.

Maybe some of those who voted for Obama the first time, or are saying they are disinterested now would think differently if they took 7 minutes to view this commentary.

Bill Whittle is a superstar. His commentaries (and this is the third one I have seen) have been out of the park spot on.

It is the last several sentences I find most disturbing and difficult to deal with.

I usually skip vids (preferring to read); however, I watched this one.

I like it so much that I'll be sending the URL around to some friends (some of whom are Dems and Indies, and could benefit from Whittle's "perspective".)

"It is the last several sentences I find most disturbing and difficult to deal with."

Grabbed my attention, too - Now, the question is, "What are we going to do about seeking out those 30 Million conservatives and urging them to step up and help save the union?"

[Baynative]

"I usually skip vids (preferring to read)"

Likewise. If there had been text, I'd have included it. But your mention of sharing this with dems and indies is what I am hoping to instigate. I've passed it on quite a bit.

Wow! Who is this guy? He has a very good camera presence and voice and a fantastic delivery! i’m sharing this on every social media I’m on!

[Seaplaner]

Whittle included a lot, but if there is a do-over, he might consider adding the campaign-finance sucker-punch LIE (that Obama would limit campaign funding to federal matching funds) that goaded McCain into using the reduced resources, while Obama chose to abandon his faked promise and take campaign money from his pals.

Also, one might mention of the disgraceful and embarrassingly juvenile (and physiologically-revealing) "Office of the President-Elect" that should have told every Obama voter that they were tragically mistaken.

Finally (and if this was in the vid, I missed it) what about Mister Obama's excoriating the Supremes? And, completely baring his contempt for our fine Constitution?

(I guess that one can only squeeze so much into seven minutes of remarkable reportage)

"...i’m sharing this"

Thank you, sincerely!

More Whittle is always a good thing.

[familyop]

It started in the early ‘70s, and political speech in general has been most despised for some time.

[MHGinTN]

‘Thirty million conservatives eligible to vote but don’t ...’ and with that fact we see why milt rominy is being selected by the GOPe and why the We The People Republic is ending as we watch.

[Gritty]

This was a hard hitting commentary and spot on! (look for Bill Whittle’s taxes to be audited)

It is the first one I saw last year. It is excellent.
