We need a Guy just like Cain,No More Ivy League Snobs,I would like to try good old common sense.Like someone who can run a Pizza Joint
If Obama has discredited the MSM, Green Power, the Ivy League, Keynsian economics and soft diplomacy, if his legacy will subject future candidates to greater scrutiny, then ultimately his (hopefully one) term will have been worth enduring.
I can’t say Hanson missed much of the story that has played out over the last 3 years.
The two points I would have added was he personally resurrected the dead....the GOP. Secondly, without the help of anyone he’s in the process of destroying the best military in the world.
Actually, he created the TEA party. The GOP was/is complicit in Obama's actions and will suffer the same fate. The TEA party will replace the RINO party.
This catastrophie was highly visible and predictable many MONTHS before the ‘08 election.
Many, many commentators and pundits predicted essentally what has happened, both in detail and generally.
Go back and find the Sotoro boosters—AND FOREVER IGNORE AND PILLORY their writings, thoughts and recommendations.
Start with McCain.
I’m so grateful that Dr. Hanson is on our side.
Thank you for posting this.
Similar to what he did for gun sales.
During the 2008 campaign, my son made an interesting observation - that Obama was the political equivalent of a Rorschach test (ink blot test.) People looked at him and saw what they wanted to see. They bought the vacuous "Hope and Change" mantra - forgetting that "change" can be bad as well as good. Sadly, we cannot get the Buffoon in Chief out of office fast enough.
Sadly, I think we are in for a very dismal future. We don't have a national will to do what it takes to get our national addiction to government spending under control. The debt load is crushing us and we don't have the will to "eat our peas" and make the required changes. Diverging exponential functions (gov't spending over time compared to wages/tax revenue over time) are a recipe for disaster. There is no credible solution proposed by either party. The results will not be pretty...
An interesting aspect of this story is the role of the media. The normally “inquisitive” mainstream media fails to find anything interesting in Obama’s past, his associations, his record or even his family. Solyndra does not interest them. His illegal alien relatives are boring and not worthy of a story. His change of stance on Gitmo and Iraq are ignored. They ignore the irony of the contrast between the Nobel Peace Prize and the attacks on Libya and the escalation in Afghanistan. The failure of the stimulus and the expansion of the debt go without comment. I could go on for hours...
” Barack Obama taught us that — and a lot more besides.”
Barack Obama has taught me nothing and has surprised me not at all.
McCain played the part of the opponant to the harlem globetrotters. Bet they struck a deal somewhere.
One hopes that enough voters actually recognize all those points.
The problem is Obama thought they wanted KENYAN economics. So that's what he's been doing the past 3 years...
This article is bunk. What it says may be true in essence, but in practicality, this extra scrutiny and higher standards will still only apply to Republicans in general, and Conservatives specifically.
Your average person is still gets a majority of their information from a biased MSM. Their views are shaped by the lies that are fed to them on a daily; nay hourly basis. Even if they have a deep seated nagging that something is not right, telling them the truth only confuses them. In their confusion, it’s easier to turn on American Idol, or Dancing With The Stars rather than seek clarification. Their choice will be solidified within the last week of Oct. based on what the MSM has told them is true.
Obama will not be in office Jan. 21, 2013. He’s such an utter failure that only the most die hard kool-aid drinker can delude themselves into thinking otherwise. What will be in place is the liberal mindset that created the mess we are in now. We won’t have a truly conservative president, who seeks to truly restore the Constitutionality of our government. Our rights will still be under attack. The criminal activity that has taken place at the highest levels will still go unpunished. We will still be bombarded, daily, by retarded liberals spouting their mindless pap.
The country will still be headed down the road to ultimate ruin; just maybe at a slower pace than before. The best one can hope for is that they have prepared themselves thoroughly for the coming fall
I disagree with #2. It assumes the MSM cares about being consistent and ethical. If the GOP nominee has any blank spots on his resume they will be all over it. Without shame.
