No because you are clueless arrogant moron.

Instead of posting ignorant diatribes at everyone spend more time learning even the most basic facts about how your system of Government works.

The political ignorance you display here is about total.

You are utterly clueless how legislation is enacted and what role the current President has played in pushing for utterly disastrous policies like Obamacare, Stimulus, Tarp2 etc etc etc

“Rebutting myself”

Don’t you have to butt yourself before you can re-butt yourself?

I realize I’m asking for trouble pinging most of you with this, but your honest and harsh reproach of the garbage I posted yesterday led me to see the flaws in my presentation and I wanted to include you in the development of my train of thought.

I deserved every bit of animosity I deserved from my craptastic attempt to address this topic, and because I was distraught at the accurate assessment of my previous approach, I decided to try to clarify and repair the damage I had done.

“Don’t JUST blame Obama, defeat him.” Perhaps that statement alone is sufficient, but I’m long winded. As always, thanks for the brutal honesty.

In my opinion, the following quote from the last blog entry was where everything started to go south:

“My fellow Americans, I am blaming you. Everything we have today is your fault. It is my fault. It is our fault.”

Sorry, but that is where you lost me. I will take no blame for the election of Obama. None. I have done nothing by either an act of commission or omission that is responsible for bringing Obama upon us.

If your main point was truly: “Stop Blaming Obama,” then you would have done well by focusing on the machine that brought him to power and the ignorance of the populace.

However, your main point was that it’s our fault, and you were (and are) acting under the assumption that we’re not doing anything and that we have to start opposing Obama.

That doesn’t sit well with us, some of whom are literally sticking our necks out to inform a populace about the danger our Republic faces. It wasn’t enough for me to flame you, but it did make me angry.

Americans love a winner, and they eventually hate a whiner. The informed don’t like being lumped in with the uninformed. We also don’t like being complained to about our supposed complaining.

Inspiring leaders operate under the premise that “You’ve done well, now let’s do even better!” Identify the problem, and then identify the solution in a non-condescending way. You will do much better in the future.
