Obama's Great Race to Change America
RealClearPolitics ^ | August 6, 2009 | Victor Davis Hanson

Why does President Obama want to implement all at once radical changes in American foreign policy, environmental policy, education, health care and the tax code?

The answer is easy: If he does not achieve these initiatives soon, he never will.

Almost none of Obama's proposed policies any longer enjoy majority support among voters -- and many of them were not clearly outlined to voters during the campaign.

Current polls show more Americans are against than in favor of his version of health-care reform. Nearly seven in 10 are wary of government takeovers of the economy, like the bank and car bailouts. Over half do not want more borrowing and higher deficits.

It is already too late. This emperor is naked and the world knows it. The only ones who still believe are the die hard lefties...

Discourage the diehard lefties. Point out that Putin has much more chiseled pecs.

America is bigger than this tyrant-bozo, we shall be victorious.

That is exactly my concern. He is pushing us to commit something that will give him grounds to suspend the Constitution, declare martial law and send in the troops.

When the troops and police refuse to fire on us, then he will turn for help to Hugo, Fidel and the others. Then it will become very, very interesting, but leave the USA open to external attack.

Show me something to be optimistic about

Well, only 550,000 people lost their jobs last week instead of the projected 580,000. According to Obama &Co. that is good news! And, more good news! An additional 69,000 are now benefiting from government unemployment programs rather than being exploited by the greedy capitalist system! That's good news!

From what I know he has virtually no support amongst the Armed Forces.

“When the troops and police refuse to fire on us, then he will turn for help to Hugo, Fidel and the others.”

When that happens Obozo and the Democrats are dead people because the military & police will begin arresting & rounding them up. Then the real fun begins when these goons are turned over to the people for prosecution and punishment.
