Obama Plans to Lay Out 'Specific Agenda' for 2nd Term (a more positive message on the way)
Yahoo! News ^ | 7/31/12 | Devin Dwyer | ABC OTUS News

President Obama hinted Monday evening that his re-election campaign will transition to a more positive and forward-looking message by the end of next month and into the fall.

Obama told a group of high-dollar donors at a New York City fundraiser that he intends to spend "a lot of time talking about the specific agenda that I intend to pursue in the second term."

Obama has faced criticism from some members of his party and key constituencies for not laying out clearly enough what his priorities will be if he's re-elected. He has also taken heat for running a predominantly negative, anti-Romney TV ad campaign in battleground states.

"This phase of the campaign I think you're seeing a lot of negative ads and a lot of contrast ads, although when people start saying how terrible it is I just have to remind them to take a look at what Jefferson and Adams had to say about each other, and democracy has always been pretty rough and pretty messy," Obama said.

A 2nd Term for Obama or a 4th for the Clintons and a party of radicals bent on 'democracy'?

The specifics of any Obama program don’t interest me. He is a fan of big, authoritarian leftist government, which I oppose.

I reckun O is working closely with the rest of the Big Gubamint heads and his Cabinet.
It must be in secret. Yeah, that's it, secret.

Then again, some have admitted how distant he is..
how uninvolved he is in legislation, to the extent of 'zero' .. zippo, nada.

1. America as you've known it will disappear.

2. All property lines will be erased.

3. The dollar will become worthless.

Is that specific enough?

Whatever the “message” is it will be a pack of lies. He cannot reveal his true intentions. He would never get elected if he told the truth.

Doesn’t matter what he says ... what he means is “Death to the Great Satan”.

What he SAYS he’ll do in a second term won’t be half as bad as what he’ll actually do.

IOW, his agenda to redistribute Other People's Money to his favored tools.

Even the most positive message that Obama could project still turns out to be strongly negative. More borrowing, accelerated spending, and total tone deafness in regards to the REAL wealth generators in this country. Just more of the last three-and-a-half years, only now pumped up on steroids.

And with WAY more attitude.

More Yahoo propaganda for the administration. Yahoo is one of the most politicized sites on the Internet.

He’s taken over 3.5 years to come up with an agenda. What is all this damage he has been doing, just Obama being Obama? No thanks! The only thing worse than a fool is a fool with a foolish plan.

Obama promised during his last campaign that he would be a uniter

So, now in the 15th and almost last quarter of his tenure he's finally getting around to it?

Hope, blame, hope more.
