I have stated this all along... professionally produced shutdown signs, all printed -not rapidly on an office copier - but on full-fledged signage -
But you see - Emperor Obama owns the media. He owns the now near majority slug-government-dependent voter population. He KNOWS that any shutdown and pain felt by anyone WILL be squarely blamed on the Republicans. Obama has committed numerous very much impeachable offenses - and has never been prosecuted by CONgress... So he KNOWS he can act with impunity.
Dictator by any other name is still a dictator.
My conspiracy sneakosope has been spinning like a top since ‘96. I’m used to it anymore.
“But you see - Emperor Obama owns the media.”
And yet he owns low poll numbers.
The bulk of the signs I saw, at least for the first few days of the shutdown, looked like they were printed on 8.5 x 11 paper. Later they became more “official” looking.
He may have low poll numbers, but the job of the media is to eliminate the competition, and they do a very good job of that.
“...the shutdown was planned to hurt as many people as possible - it may have backfired.....”
Yeah, he pulled out all the stops and now the GOP [Groveling Old Party] will notice how it kind of flopped. They only dipped their toes in the water with this shutdown, and I bet the water felt good. I HOPE this emboldens them rather than them talking themselves into jumping at shadows.
The signs, however, are no evidence at all. The US Government is extremely well-fixed for printing equipment (and everything else). Those signs could have easily been designed, printed and distributed in less than a week. Tens of thousands.
Even a civilian can easily obtain signs like that, very rapidly. Have a look, for example, at OvernightPrints.com
“He may have low poll numbers, but the job of the media is to eliminate the competition, and they do a very good job of that.”
They need the assistance of RNC consultants who need to prove that they are far more clever than basic conservatism. You don’t get the big bucks as a consultant by quoting the plain truth. You need to prove that you are very so much clever. That’s what defeated us — belway consultants, not the old media. And half of those consultants are closet leftists regardless.
The aluminum signs appeared at the Lee’s Ferry entrance to Glenn Canyon National Rec area on the first day. Marble canyon is in the middle of nowhere in arizona
In his victory speech this morning Obama managed to blame all the economic woes on the shutdown. Jobs were lost. Mortgages were denied. Employers did not hire. Buyers did not buy. Our debt problems were made worse.
Of course it was! There’s probably a purchase order for a few gross of white flags to send over to the RNC too.
It will be interesting to see if we even have an election in 2016..........
Ho, you're turning into a one trick pony.
Yes.
And when the first nuke conveniently blows an American city off the map, it will have been planned in the White House.
Lol. It will be interesting to see if there’s slections in 2014.
That signage quickly appeared is not evidence of advance planning. All the federal departments and agencies however, could anticipate the shutdown weeks in advance. And they dutifully and properly prepared for it. And yes, the White House and all Democratic Party politicians are served positively by the shutdown, as the middle American will tend to blame the Republicans. And yes, the White House and Harry Reid deliberately and consciously acted to see the shut down happen...... But none of this is conspiracy. It is open fact. And the appearance of signage on day 1 isn’t evidence of conspiracy.
I think the point is this is like a chess game. Freedom lost this time AGAIN Was it planned? yes of course it was. They do tests to see how the public will react all the time
I hear you. I used to think I was just imaginative. Now I think I'm psychic. (half-kidding)
