Obama's Domestic Agenda On the Ropes...Or From Messiah to Hack by January

To be fair, I predicted Obama would be viewed as a hack within a 100 days once. So, maybe, I am not the best person to predict this. That said, in front of our eyes, President Obama's entire agenda is nearing disintegration. A couple days back, negotiations between top Democrats broke down over cap and trade. The situation was characterized as going back to the drawing board.

Cap and trade always had a dubious chance of passing. It's not something that just about any Republican would ever support. It would also not enjoy support of any legislator in any state or district that relied on any form of energy that would be adversely affected by its imposition. As such coal states, agriculture states, and any state that relies on oil, would be furtive ground for opposition to the legislation. So far, it passed through the Energy and Commerce Committee in the House

Even if he becomes a hack by January, he will still be capable of destroying this country in view of the many rats in Congress that still support him.

not really. If he can’t pass anything now, how will he pass anything when his popularity is weaker.

I think it should read Or From Messiah to Hack since January

Nothing will change the fact that he IS a hack and has always been a hack. It's just getting more difficult to hide as time goes on.

“I think it should read Or From Messiah to Hack since January”
He was a Hack when he was a community organizer, he was a Hack when he won the nomination, he's still a Hack. The problem is that he has the media adoration and a nation full of dumb masses that are too lazy and ignorant to deserve to vote for what's for dinner. He's done nothing since the election but pay off the special interests that bought him into office. Same story as every other DemonRAT politician. If Obama and the DemonRATs received the same daily assassination from the media that every Republican gets, they couldn't get elected to dog catcher. The DemonRATs daily mantra is character assassination and demonizing of everyone and everything that stands in their way. They are unchallenged on the veracity and on the ethics of their diatribes. Any peep of criticism or opposition is met with howls of scorn and talk of racism and more character assassination. DemonRATs are playground bullies and loudmouth ignorant sluts, in the appropriate cases. They need a good smack-down, but that would be sinking to their level. Still, it conjures up a pleasant mental image.

I predicted that Obama, aka Moron-in-Chief, will be forced to resign by the end of 2010 for gross incompetence.

Cap & Trade will increase everyone’s utility bill by 50%. This alone will enable the GOP to take back congress in 2010.
