**** you horowitz!

I call it the Obama Reality Syndrome.
Understanding BamBam is not difficult if you understand the Left. To the extent that the left is divided on a whole host of sub-issues and paranoias BamBam will be thwarted in a lot of what he would like to accomplish. What is accomplished will be decay of the nation, at a somewhat slower rate. To the extent that the left unites itself behind him it is not possible to underestimate the damage he will do to this nation.
Likewise, to the extent that Republicans stand fast on conservative principle (a difficult task, it seems) the congressional Democrats will remain scared and hesitant to give BamBam complete support. As Republican rinos cave to their own leftism, so support for BamBam will grow.
Life will then, as they say, “happen”, and even the Democrats will bemoan the result.
The half-life of some of the ‘60’s drugs are still running through your brain cells, Horowitz.
Someone got to him
I didn’t expect Obama to come out wearing a workers cap singing The Internationale with the ex-Soviet flag in the background. But look at his actions since elected. Obama campaigned on stepping up activity in Afghanistan. He couldn’t back down from that and retain any credibility with the defense sector. However can anyone doubt he is the most leftist president in history in just a brief two months? Dave is really giving Obama the benefit of the doubt. I don’t think there’s much doubt left.
(putting my flame retardant underwear on...just a moment).
David Horowitz is right. (ducking...) I yell at my TV on an hourly basis. If my doctor knew I watched as much TV news as I do, he would probably advise me to stop to prevent my blood pressure from killing me (wait, maybe that is the secret socialist strategy for Rush Limbaugh....hmmmm)
But when we oppose Obama - and we will - we need to do it based on real fact, real principles and real conservative ideology. He is, as the military calls it, a target rich environment.
We don’t need to point out that his wife looks like a bulldog or that his ears would only fit somebody with a head as large as keith olbermann.
We need to oppose him based on his socialist policies. We need to oppose him on the things which will help us get back Congress and eventually win back the White House. The media will take everything we say out of context. Despite the fact that the Left is far, far, far, far, far, far, far more vicious, noxious, vitriolic or ad hominem than anything you find on the Right, the MSM will pick out a handful of quotes to attempt to balance out the entire Lefty echo chamber. And we will all be painted as Obama-haters just like we did in the 90s when the last Elvis of the DNC was in office.
Mostly this is a suggestion for the political class in the GOP and the punditocracy (not us out here in the grassroots). But realize that everything we say is going to be twisted and turned into something racial or hateful.
Let our opposition be principled, insightful, funny and absolutely CONSERVATIVE.
(okay, let ‘er rip, guys)
KMA David. He’s a Communist hell bent on destroying this country. Drink some more Kool Aid
But he takes it too far. He's lost his bite.
Most presidents are "centrist and sober" most of the time.
That may be true of Obama much of the time, but such a pedestrian characterization doesn't capture the specific features of Obama's personality and presidency.
Obambi is a threat, but we have to remain rational.
