>You can read the mea culpa of the New York Times David Brooks (a moderate) in which he is “forced to confront the reality that Barack Obama is not who we thought he was.”

Brooks is a “moderate” where?

There will be no economic recovery until Obozo is out of office.

Polls still show the President has strong popularity among the general U.S. population

What a croc ... on inauguration day his rating on Rasmussen was:

44% Strongly Approve 16% Strongly Disapprove

today it was

38% Strongly Approve 32% Strongly Disapprove

He's dropping like a stone.

David Brooks is the New York Times' version of a Republican, hence the term 'moderate.'

But you are quite correct: while he may not be a "hard core doctrinaire liberal," he certainly isn't anything approaching a conservative, and seems to spend most of his time criticizing conservatives.

Is that "Obama" plus "Mao"? I hadn't seen that before!

I don't know whether he's said anything positive or not: I've been waiting for him to either say something true or at least say something smart.

I've grown tired of waiting.

What the Republicans desperately need to be doing right now is four things. The first is to stand in the way of the Obama disaster as much as they can. But just as important:

1) Ask themselves the BIG question: “If we were in charge, what would we be doing?”

2) Then come up with an answer, with pitch in from every major Republican player. A formulated plan. A big one. A text book sized agenda of what the Republicans would do if they were in power, right now, and just as strong as the Democrats are.

3) Then bring in Wall Street. The top economists around. The best and the brightest. And give them one directive:

“Tear it up!”

Tell them to tear up the Republican plan with axes, chainsaws, fire, whatever. Tear it up one side and down the other, and tell the Republicans how WRONG they are with THEIR economic plan.

My point is to do it NOW. Come up with a strategic plan NOW, and troubleshoot it NOW. When they are out of power.

It’s a secret, so don’t blab to the Democrats. But when the Democrats screw up horribly and go up in a sheet of flame politically in two years, the Republicans have to be waiting and ready to ACT.

Don’t wait until Republicans are back in power to formulate and test a plan. That is a recipe for failure. DO IT NOW. Get your act together.

That is a VERY good idea. I would love to see Repubs do it.

Kind of like the Contract with America.

On the contrary Mr. Brooks, for those of us who get our information from conservative talk radio, One Big A$$ Mistake America is PRECISELY who we thought he was.

Well, Nancy Pelosi's sarcastic rhetort was, "Does the pope support killing babies?"

And then was ever so surprised when she found out he actually didn't.

Of course Obama and Obamanomics are the reason this is happening.

5) Internally censure every RINO and require they vote with their leadership or face losing all R $.
