That assumes anybody is paying attention to this. Few people are even aware that questions have arisen about Obama’s birthplace.

There simply is too much going on. As Glenn Beck noted recently, a typical Alinsky tactic is to “overwhelm the system” by moving along multiple political fronts. We thus have Obama movement on the environment, health care, the economy, free speech/fairness doctrine, nuclear proliferation at the same time. The opposition cannot “freeze” any of these issues and target it — and so cannot effectively oppose what appears to be overwhelming political momentum. In that tidal wave of movement, the BC issue is a drop.

Thus, there is no critical mass (in raw numbers) nor an influential lobby (i.e., “movers and shakers”) for the Obama legitimacy issue. MAJ Cook is not Joe the Plumber — he does not have that kind of exposure or salience. Obama and his acolytes will destroy Cook, and only a few will know that the man ever existed.

One thing for sure is people are noticing they have no jobs and no money.

At least Bret Baier, Special Report, mentioned it on his show yesterday. We'll see if he follows up today.

In the military it's referred to as getting inside the enemy's decision cycle. It's very, very effective. In a political arena, extraordinarily so.

After the Dear Leader took office my first impression was that they were incompetent amateurs. I formed that opinion by looking at the illogical nature of individual proposals. The story isn't in the details - it's in the mass of details. My first impression was very, very wrong.
