1) I don't think they're afraid at all. I think a few months ago they concluded they would pass health non-care whether or not 80% of the public was against it, in hopes of a) starting the goodies rolling before too many were voted out, and b) building a doomsday machine that couldn't be undone. Oh, the GOP might elect a bunch of people in 2010---but not the 100 CONSERVATIVES needed to repeal this mess.

2) Second, you have to understand that they would only be "afraid" if they REALLY were getting good information about the size of the opposition and the depth of the anger. But they aren't. ABC said 60,000. That's not even an OSU football game. It doesn't matter if the numbers were really two million, what matters is that Pelosi/Reid/Obama's staffers tell them repeatedly that these are a few kooks, and then they hear on MSNBC about the "tea-baggers" and laugh, and that's it.

Folks, you've got to get a little realistic here---not downplaying the size or significance of these movements at all---but in Maoist China, ALL the government advisors told Mao the "Great Leap Forward" was a success, and they staged massive phony shows of strange new genetically-bred crops, of wheat so big children could sit on it (it was a table underneath), of "surpluses" that the peasants had to leave on the side of the road (guarded by the military until the moment Mao passed by).

We are very much in danger of this situation. It's not JUST that Obama and his ilk are predisposed to ignoring stuff like this, but their "commanders in the field" are NOT giving Herr Hitler accurate information.

Agreed. Obama is making an equal but opposite mistake from what Hitler made. Hitler had good commanders in the field who gave him good info but he chose to ignore it. Obama has yes men who tell him only what he wants to hear and cracks are beginning to show.

I am afraid you are 100% correct! And this administration is going to pass this monster distracting us with the “numbers” attending the Tea Party Protest, and we’re falling for it!

Thanks for your analysis and comments!

Just as Obama has obscured his past, he obscures the future. He won't spell out the details of his vision for the country. This is VERY susupicious. Why hide your plans if you truely believe in them? The obvious conclusion is that he has sinister motives, just as you say.

They know... and their staffers know... and they do not depend on the media... they only USE the media... for they know the media is a lying division of their own propaganda machine... they are afraid and they know the truth... they are the ones instructing the media to tell lies about this... but they cannot lie away the anger in America and Americans will revolt if pushed. Do you truly think that fact does NOT scare them? Oh... they are scared to death.

There are differences between what happened in China and what is happening here. Just to mention a few
1)We have a history of freedom and individualism they never had.
2)We have guiding documents (under threat in Public education)
3)We have the second amendment and plenty of ammunition and...
4) In God we trust....

Obama and his minions will be defeated in November 2010.

I’m sure Louis the XVI’s, and King George’s advisors did the same thing, look what happened there.
