> I hope the Republicans know what to do with the power
> that is coming their way...

Given all the opportunities I’ve seen them throw away - 1981, 1995, 2001, 2005 - I have to doubt it.

Unless there is some NEW and SMART and UNCOMPROMISINGLY PRINCIPLED leadership in the GOP, they will just do what they always do. “Reach across the aisle” ... “bipartisanship” ... yada yada yada ... with the end result being we have less freedom and the DemoncRAT communist agenda continues to move forward.

"The consensus was similar in an afternoon panel discussion on the decline of the American middle class. “He said jobs were going to be his No. 1 priority—there’s a huge disconnect between Washington and what’s going on out in the country,” nominal Obama supporter Arianna Huffington said. "

Or, through the translator: "Daaaaaahling. I sense, when some of the leetle peeple are around, that a tahrget is beink placed on my back. Eeen fact, my freinds feel the same, like we are the nobles facing the rest of the country in France in 1789...."

What I don't hear from these people is, I was wrong and I made a mistake. Until then, they will happily remain idiots, fooling themselves into believing they couldn't deduce this earlier, and ready to vote for the next charlatan that tickles their ego....

The “smart people” are always the last to know.

The higher the eeducation the less common sense.

Elgibility lawyer in coma:

On July 6th, 2010, an ‘unopposed motion for extension to file opening brief’ was filed in the Keyes/Barnett v Obama lawsuit now in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in California. Appellants’ seek an extension until August 12th, 2010 to file the opening brief in the Keyes/Barnett v Obama appeal. The original schedule to file was June 28th, 2010. Previously, the Court granted Appellants’ an extension until July 12th, 2010, but due to serious complications from back surgery Attorney Gary Kreep is unable to meet that date. The motion was filed by Attorney Christopher P. Tucker. Below is an excerpt, regarding Attorney Kreep, from the motion filed yesterday, July 6th, 2010. The full motion embedded below excerpt.

I have never seen an egg with a nose like hers!

Belay that, I saw one once when it was just hatching and the beak was sticking out. You may be right...

And...November means nothing to Obama.

Quite true. Michele Bachmann has reported that Obama, at a meeting with members of Congress shortly before his inauguration, stated quite clearly that enacting his agenda his more important to him than having a second term.

The Elite Turn Against Obama

The author gives them too much credit. This was nothing more than a therapy session to reason away their apparent cognitive dissonance. A circle jerk for the elites. They have learned nothing aside from burying their own incompetence efficiently. Makes them even more dangerous in my opinion. The guilt is still there, only there's more baggage attached to it and ready to be tweaked by the next Obama...

In a way, the folks attending this cerebral conclave pairing the Aspen Institute think tank with the Atlantic Monthly magazine might even be seen as President Obama’s natural base.

Cerebral? This was a conclave of idiots. Their savior was a false prophet.

And anybody with a 9th grade education in the realn world saw it coming. So, how "smart" are these "experts"?

"..this cerebral conclave..."

Not sure how you can classify as cerebral, that which lacks as it's foundation, the perception of the obvious.

Amazing how some are still not laying blame on Obama but his team-If James Brolin thought the conference was “Mind Blowing” I wonder what words he would utter if he knew that all the policys Obama and his team are implementing are for the purposeful destruction of the United States. I think he will pass out

Strutting peacocks with not enough sense to have seen the trouble coming in early 2008.

If I hear HARVARD referred to again, with the implication that a degree from that factory is to be worshiped, I’m gonna PUKE.

Obama has surrounded himself with Harvard-oides, assuming the “little people” are impressed with his appointments. He, himself, was “sent” there and subsidized-—again, in the hopes the “little people” would be impressed.

Harvard-oides are the type that don’t know enough to come in out of the rain. I know—I have a sister who went to harvard...she voted for the offal in the white house.

(...and from such people turn away!...2 Tim. 3:1-5)

She and I have little to say to each other these days. Sadly, I don’t miss her stories about standing out in the rain.

Yeah, the great sage of economics, Arianna Huffington says it’s Obama’s economic team. Can no one on the left just come out and say it’s Obama’s fault?

Actually that’s more of a positive than a negative.

I think even the hard core Left is seeing that the country is falling apart economically and is scared to death. Now they want to support the American economy so that their standard of living won’t diminish.

LOVE your tagline. I’ve been telling people for a year that, “The President of the USA is actually George Soros.”
