When the history of Barack Obama's one-term presidency is written, August 2009 will be remembered as the turning point.
It was then that thousands of ordinary citizens began to rise up against a health care bill being forced through Congress. And it was then that the Obama administration declared war, through its union proxies, against the American people.
Obama had been elected to fix the economy. But Democrats had planned for years to use the first year of the next "progressive" presidency to push universal health care, according to the plan written in federal prison by convicted fraudster and Democrat strategist Robert Creamer. That plan declared: "To win we must not just generate understanding, but emotion — fear, revulsion, anger, disgust."
The Democrats followed that plan to the letter and vowed to pass ObamaCare — then known as H.R. 3200 — before that summer's end. But when they dispatched members of Congress to town hall meetings to sell Obama's policy, they met unprecedented outrage — not just protests, but the simple, searing questions of their constituents: "Why should we pay for abortions?" "Does the legislation cover illegal immigrants?" "Have you even read the bill?"
Some of the opposition was organized by Tea Party groups that had sprung up in the wake of President Obama's massive stimulus in February 2009. But much of it was spontaneous. Then-House Speaker (now Minority Leader) Nancy Pelosi called the protests "un-American" and falsely accused Tea Party members of carrying swastikas. That made the public even more indignant.....

Who do we have running that you really want to vote for? I have nobody. What a pathetic field.
I’d be happier if he didn’t finish his first term.
Breitbart is a true patriot. We will not be silenced!
Since it was the american people who voted for this guy and all of the other socialists, or you might say America spoilers in the first place, i do not see it getting better but only worse. Americans wanted a Government tit to suck on so now what we get is a police state.
The only rich people will be in Government and the rest of us will be eating rice and too busy trying to follow rules and regulations to even know we have been had.

I lean toward the constitution party but i think if we vote for any one except a republican Obama will be in again.
Not worried about that...he has nowhere to run. There’ll always be a Secret Service detail present to “protect” him. So unless he is going to have someone take out his SS detail so he can seek asylum in Mugabeland, he’ll be reachable.
Oh well i will vote and vote to win but truly i would rather not have to hold my nose while doing so.
I love Breitbart and thought the beginning of the piece was good, but he drifts off at the end on a vendetta against some nobody at Media Doesn’t Matter. He doesn’t wrap up how Obummer is so damaged from ‘09 that he will be a one termer. The piece is titled how he lost the 2012 election in ‘09, not about a bunch of ineffectual Commie union thugs.
I predict the Obama minions will remove the “p” keys from all the keyboards in a show of disrespect for the incoming president-elect.
Compare this to another post saying that Barry is sure to win in 2012.
“thousands of ordinary citizens began to rise up against a health care bill”
I think you mean astroturf automatons built in Dick Cheney’s (not so) secret, Murdoch/Koch Bros.-financed, underground Shadow Government lab.
Now, wait a minute, what if its....
Oh, right. 'P' or 'P' are the only likely choices.
Yep. She could have stopped it in committee if I recall correctly.
Steyn says Obama’s next gig is King of the World. Over at the UN
Yes that is correct.
I contend that if you really want to distill it down to one single tippingpoint, obamao’s momentum actually turned south when he said the Cambridge Police “acted stupidly”.
lol... yup. You got it.
I figured he was running for Antichrist.
