“...he thinks it’s headed for a “train wreck” because of bumbling implementation.”
The O’care bill is crap because that is that way that Baucus wrote it! At least he didn’t blame GOP “obstruction.”
I believe that at the secret White House meeting this week the inevitable 100% increase in premiums for the peeps was revealed.
He was chosen as the central idol; the focus of a sort of santeria voodoo cult. He is Evita Peron. Hugo Chavez. None of his followers is willing to connect the dots that trail from the top ... down from a man who impresses me as not actually running anything. He is just trotted out to read statements from the teleprompter array that surrounds him at every public appearance. It is a cult.
Now, in his last two years, even those appearances appear contrived, wooden. There is not a scintilla of human emotion in his inane remarks about the Boston Massacre.
There is an even greater downside to this cult of personality into which you, I, and many another FReeper is in danger of falling. That is, we are focused too much on him. That, I am convinced is by design. While we bitch and moan about him, Team Obama, that is 'The Brains of the Outfit,' keep consolidating power. They WANT chaos and disarray, and they have gotten it.
After this catastrophic event I am convinced more than ever ... and I don't particularly care if we electy Daffy Duck to do it ... we must sweep Congress in '14. Let's concentrate on finding Republican, Tea Party, and Conservative candidates and hammer the SOBs into shape until they listen. And just BTW, why exactly cannot Boehner be dumped now?
