I would not go as far as to call those who twice put him in the White House Americans. Haters of America, yes, but they, in my opinion, are not Americans.

“I know, because I won both of them.”

I don't think anyone was more surprised than obammy at his re-election.

Not everyone under 30 voted for Obama.

I am extremely disappointed in the America that gave us (him) twice

Then direct your disappointment to those that manipulate the outcome of the Republican selection process. I'm extremely disappointed that the alternatives were McCain, then Romney. And I'm extremely disappointed in people elected to go to DC this time who campaigned on our principles and now treat constitutional conservatives as the enemy.

It'll happen again if someone like Cruz doesn't overwhelm the process.

Stolen election with phony vote counting.

Yes.....absolutely....crooked elections on the part of the Dhimmicrats ....but not enough to change the 2 zer0 victories...unlike like the Kennedy Nixon or Bush Gore race that were razor thin margins. Zer0's elections were not that close.... the real fault was a combination of poor republican candidates and a motivated black electorate who never voted before....and sob sisters who felt that it behooved them to let the poor black man be president for a change.

Maybe, but did they really need to steal the elections when our choices were McCain and Romney?

But *HE* didn't win anything. Who won those elections for him was the New York/Los Angeles Liberal Democrat Union member media who control information flow to the public.

*THAT* is who "won" (I think what they did is a form of cheating) the "election."

Obama is an idiot. Without someone else doing the work for him, he's got nothing.

I have heard alcoholics say that alcohol robbed me of everything. A wiser one, farther into recovery corrects that with "I gave all my stuff away."

Big difference.

It has been hard for me to accept what some propose...that the Repubs do not want to win. But, I am coming around.

They would rather lose to the democRats than win with a conservative candidate.

In other words, they oppose conservatives more than they oppose democRats.

What a Smug little A Hole. Of course he won.

But notice, that the Republicans provoked that Luser outburst from the First Catamite Urkel-Wannabe, and exposed his character to the watching nation, by goading him to go outside his Teleprompter oratory.

Very good move by Boner et al.

They get what they want from their having won office, by running what amounts to an extortion or "protection" business in Washington, where they hire out as "in-office" lobbyists carrying briefs for this one and that one. They protect, say, the National Association of Manufacturers, they work on their issues, and they take their money. Lots and lots of money, with (in the old days) millions left over in campaign funds that they could take with them.

Now they have to give it to the parties, but they still get to roll in it while they're in office and jetting out to Samoa to look at urgent social problems (yeah, right).

Hi, Liz, nice post.

However, RiNO's are seeking out and banding together with 'Rat caucuses (or remnants of caucuses, as in Texas) to form a governing block of votes to control the State's agenda in spite of the majorities and the votes. This is true in Texas, where the speaker of the Texas house is a liberal RiNO most of whose support comes from the 'Rats.

It would be interesting to know, if your data-mining source is driven to pursue even more insight, if this arrangement is common among States that have elected strongly- or more-conservative Republican majorities.

I ask because I see the hand of Karl Rove and his NWO bosses in our Texas predicament. The speakership didn't just fall on this speaker: he led an insurrection against the former, conservative speaker with the help of the liberal 'Rats (but I repeat myself) to roll the majority. Somehow I think someone whispered in his ear..... And I should add that New England Old Money Yankees have had a habit of doing this for the last 75 years or so, planting cuckoo eggs on us to get Yankee results from Texas congressmen.

The Texas lege is now 2:1 Republican, but the RiNO' s and social liberals control the agenda.

Isn't the media always telling us Americans hate angry petulant politicians?

I couldn't help but remember this as I listen to their delighted squeals as they reported this soundbite today.

What a little b*tch Obama is.

I don't know how anyone could manage to stifle a chuckle when Obama said what he did about campaigning.

It was either a defacto admission that he has been led by political considerations only all these years, or that what he intends to do from here forward will be intrinsically against what the American voter wants.

Most likely it was both. And it said so on his teleprompter - someone wrote those words. Unbelievable. Or not.

Important to remember---what Karl Rove, Boehner, McConnell and RINOS think is decidely irrelevant.

The MOST IMPORTANT THING is what we, the people, think.

You can bet the RINO types are shivering in their boots---they KNOW the midterm voters that dumped the party of Obama are watching and waiting.

......and will turn on them....if they start acting like the party of Obama.

It was so obvious that this was a calculated set up ... “I have no more campaigns to fun” followed by what CLEARLY was a deliberately long pause while he waited for the VERY predictable reaction (a smattering of sarcastic applause) to which he delivered his prepared (even if not in the script) comeback.
