As the saying goes: “Our ancestors would have been shooting by now.”
Mittens seems to be silent about it. He could speak for you but I am not so sure its a good idea. Obama might use it as a trap and we are too close to election day taking chances.
Prediction: Obviously Obama knows the heat is on. Therefore, in order to avoid any questions and, in order to show his “caring side,” he will sequester himself in the White House for the next week in his feeble attempt to lower the rise of the oceans during the Sandy Scenario. That way he will be seen (by some) as being “presidential” and at the same time avoid the truth for another eight days.
Don’t we mock DU for their countless and endless “The day that changed everything.”?
This is the same thing.
I have no idea what will wake people up anymore and I can’t even guess. It just seems to me what is going to be the break in the dam at this point is going to be something so seemingly trivial and inconsequential that it just becomes a situation of enough being enough.
The only thing that makes me say that is heretofore none of the big stuff that should matter seems to matter to people.
True, this is not the time to be taking unnecessary risks in the campaign. We’re too close to throwing the bum out to risk letting him back in.
But the bigger question is: what repercussions will there be AFTER the election, or more accurately, after Inauguration Day?
Sadly, we’ve seen countless examples of just how spineless the GOP truly is. I’d be willing to bet that Romney & Co. will want to “play nice” and “reach across the aisle” in their first few months. That means it is highly unlikely there will ever be trials held and proper punishments dispensed. More’s the pity.
The biggest problem facing Republicans and conservatives is the leftist MSM oligopoly. Once America’s media has returned to a more politically balanced state, will Americans get the news and information needed to make informed decisions about their future.
The way to bust up this oligopoly is to bring back the Federal Communications Commission’s ownership rules that were in place in the 1970s, but updated to take into account changes in technology.
Simply put, if someone owns a broadcast medium under FCC regulation, the FCC can limit what other media they can own.
Right now, the “big six” media corporations in America own or effectively control TV and radio broadcasting; movies, TV, radio, music and live content production; newspapers and magazine and book publishing, large parts of the Internet, vast libraries of copyrighted media content, and other segments of the American media.
So the FCC can say that if they own or control some kind of broadcasting, they must divest their ownership and control of most of its other media. The easiest way to do this is to split into two or more different corporations.
Judging by the volumes of junk mail I get from dead tree media organs begging me to subscribe, I think they have already heard us.
Calling for mass demonstrations has the problem that Shakespeare pointed out if one tries to call up spirits: “Why, so can I, or so can any man; But will they come when you do call for them?”
