...Barack Obama's record to date shows that the total disability of his Presidency, to the extent that he spends the next three years as a de facto lame duck, would be the right thing for the United States. Those who agree should send the unified message that Barack Obama does not command what the Chinese call the Mandate of Heaven, and that his health care "reforms" or his "climate change" agenda will end the career of any Senator (e.g. Olympia Snowe) or Member of Congress who supports these things.
...The State Department's recent decision to pull funding from Freedom House, an impartial watchdog organization that reports on human rights abuses around the world, is only the latest in a long litany of reasons why Barack Obama does not deserve the Mandate of Heaven (or the "Aspect of Respectability" as described in Gordon R. Dickson's None but Man).
"Climate change" is really a cover story for the ignorant masses, an excuse for these corporate special interests to enrich themselves in the manner of medieval indulgence sellers (e.g. through the sale of "carbon credits," today's equivalent of medieval indulgences). Perhaps Barry and his enablers will create another Inquisition to prosecute "heretics" who express disbelief in global warming as a problem that merits the destruction of the American economy (except for the favored indulgence-sellers); this was pretty much the racket that the medieval church used to line its pockets at the expense of the peasantry. The American working person who is the backbone of the Democratic Party is the new peasant, and Kirsten Gillibrand has made that very clear in her letter to the Wall Street Journal.

2010.....2010.....2010
The best thing we can do with Obamao is turn him out to the golf field pasture early. It’s where he obviously wants to go, and where he will do the least damage. He is much too dangerous to have hanging around the White House.
Maybe he should play 36 holes a day. Or even 72...
Good idea !
I am afraid that the people of Maine are not bright enough nor creative enough to dump their Republi-fraud Senators for truly conservative ones.
I wish there was a way to have a ‘vote of no confidence.’
“I wish there was a way to have a ‘vote of no confidence.’”
I’ve been thinking the same thing. The Founding Fathers must have had a reason for setting the term at four years, but at present, this is a weakness in our political system. We can’t get rid of this guy without serious disruption until 2012.
“We can’t get rid of this guy without serious disruption until 2012.”
We don’t have to. We just make it clear that anybody who votes on his side on either health care “reform” or cap and trade will be out of office in 2010 (all Representatives) or as soon as possible (Senate). I will call Senator Specter’s office and tell him that, if he votes with Obama on either issue, I will make a Toomey for Senate bumper sticker and put it on my car right now—I can do that at CafePress.
I’m doing my part to throw sand in the gears of government. My hope is that we can slow thing down and minimize damage to our nation between now and the 2010 elections. God willing, after 2010 we can intensify legislative resistance and after 2012 begin serious repairs. I’m calling, protesting, selectively supporting candidates, and talking to my fellow citizens. I’m also praying for a miracle.
Specter’s office is on my cell phone. They hear from me every couple of days, as do Casey and Schwartz.
