RE :”The best thing the GOP can do at this point is to concentrate on cutting spending and reducing the size of government. Restoring freedom to the citizens should be the underlying message of every issue. “

As long as they dont draw attention away from Obamacare disaster.

Keep in mind Obamacare opened October 1st with only 6 registering,

But Americans didnt hear about its huge failure until mid October after a certain other crisis ended, one creating all the news stories

During the shutdown a WSJ/NBC poll showed Obama up at ~ 49% and it was called bogus, by Nov 1st that same polling group showed him back down ~ 40% and it was cited here by many as had to be true.

Is Bill actually sane to say this?

This is THE day the Obamatics were supposed to reveal how many signed up for the glorious plan.

The buzz is about 1100 per month are signing up-—that means it will take 800 years for the plan to reach the Healthcare Utopia that Boobama dreamed up.

The Dems say that most of the 9 million will log on and sign up at the last minute, whenever that is.
(Its obviously not now LOL)

They’re not dumb people and would know that this will undermine the exchanges and solvency of the program further and faster

They see that implosion of the whole program might be ahead if popular support erodes much more.

Not to mention Dem Senate seats lost.

I think they believe Obama is moving too slowly in damage control. LOL. Dems are fracturing.

Suckup Pelosi raves about Hillary's readiness to be prez---yet, prostrate MSM interviewers never ask what Hillary accomplished as First ‘Lady’, what she accomplished as a Senator, and what she accomplished as SOS. Noteworthy is that Hillary allowed 4 patriotic Americans to be murdered in Benghazi and she helped bring the Middle East to the brink of all-out war.

THIS MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD Then-SoS Hillary and Obama used US military personnel, military equipment and military facilities to overthrow the government of Libya.

SO WHY IS THIS A BELLY LAUGH?

B/c it's really, really odd hearing Hillary and "military raids" in the same sentence. Hillary is a major proponent of "Smart Power"....... or as it is laughingly known: "Democrats winning the foreign policy objectives without firing a shot."

================================================

Behold what "Smart Power" hath wrought: Obama's careening and incomprehensible handling of the Syrian crisis.....doing a Costa Concordia with US ntl security and foreign policy. Obama outed himself as naive, isolated....and outlandishly stupid. Not to forget then-Secy of State Hillary's part in the "Smart Power" debacle.

Democrats' 'Smart Power' Lies in Ruins; Suddenly
Realizing What They Miscalculated About the World:
Everything

National Review | Sept 3, 2013 | Jim Geraghty / FR Posted by kristinn

....... Democrats are suddenly realizing that their foreign policy brain-trust completely misjudged the world.

Being nicer to countries like Russia will not make them nicer to you. The United Nations is not an effective tool for resolving crises. Some foreign leaders are beyond persuasion and diplomacy. There is no “international community” ready to work together to solve problems, and there probably never will be.

You can pin this on Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Susan Rice, but most of all, the buck stops with the president. Those of us who scoffed a bit at a state senator ascending to the presidency within four years on a wave of media hype and adoration are not quite so shocked by this current mess.

We never bought into this notion that getting greater cooperation from our allies, and less hostility from our enemies, was just a matter of giving this crew the wheel and letting them practice, as Hillary Clinton arrogantly declared it, “smart power” (and fronted Time magazine cover).

(These people can’t even label a foreign policy approach without reminding us of how highly they think of themselves.)

They looked out at the world at the end of the Bush years, and didn’t see tough decisions, unsolvable problems, unstable institutions, restless populations, technology enabling the impulse to destabilize existing institutions, evil men hungry for more power, and difficult trade-offs.

No, our problems and challengers were just a matter of the previous hands running U.S. foreign policy not being smart enough. (Excerpt) Read more at nationalreview.com ...

===============================================

OH, BTW, AT THE SAME TIME Smartpowertics, O and HILL, staged military raids in Libya, they gained access to the National Bank of Libya. (No, no paper money there---just solid gold bars. Solid Gold. Not the Chinese tungsten filled bars that flooded the gold market).

This is at best a comedy routine from Clinton, suggesting that a presidential promise be kept.

Guess they can keep their word... which WILL require a change in the law... Clinton might think Obama’s a dictator and can wave his magic wand..

Or they can go the ‘down home’ way dems are using in Texas and just tell people to lie on the forms...

From LINK:

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/363699/truth-about-navigators-john-fund

“..........The events of O’Keefe’s video of a Texas navigator site run by the National Urban League are a familiar sight to viewers of his past efforts exposing Medicaid and voter fraud. Government-paid workers supposedly trained to uphold the law advise clients on how to lie on government forms, evade legal requirements, and ignore proper procedures.

“You lie because your premiums will be higher,” one navigator advises an investigator for O’Keefe’s Project Veritas, who tells the worker he sometimes smokes. “Don’t tell them that. Don’t tell ’em.”

The investigator then poses as a low-income worker at a university who has unreported cash income on the side, worrying about how that might affect his premium subsidies. That’s no problem for a navigator, who says, “Don’t get yourself in trouble by declaring it now.”

“Yeah, it didn’t happen,” another navigator says. One more chimes in: “Never report it.”

Records show that the National Urban League was paid $376,000 by the federal government for its Obamacare outreach in Texas.

O’Keefe’s cameras then visit Enroll America, a nationwide nonprofit group that has launched a multi-state grassroots campaign to help millions of Americans sign up for health coverage. Daniel Clayton of Enroll America says the group is “purely nonprofit. It’s not partisan, non-political.” But when Brian Pendleton of Enroll America is introduced at a speaking engagement, Enroll America is described as “the official group for the DNC [Democratic National Committee].”

Enroll America, O’Keefe reports, appears to be sharing data and working directly with an explicitly political group called Battleground Texas, activities that he notes “are prohibited unless certain conditions are met..........”

Bill and Hillary giving Boobamba advice WRT the biggest SCREWUP in the history of the USA, is a laugh riot.

<><> HillaryCare was shot down by a US court b/c of the secrecy she employed.

<><> Keep in mind---Hillary took over a vaccine program back in the 90's. She and Bill spent billions of tax dollars in an effort to advance her political ambitions.

BUT due to her incompetence (or was it "smart power"?) the vaccine sat in warehouses, past expiration date. Hillary ended up wasting billions of tax dollars.
