But now that they are hooked, he is reeling them in to an entirely different — and, for many a frightening — agenda.

So is it the old "bait and switch" technique, or was Obama just "feeding us a line"?

Soon to be a lameduck.

Hell - the Dems are going to demanding the birth certificate.

Just wait until this winter as more states cut social services drastically, unemployment continues upward, and people are freezing their arses off.

When a once-eloquent president now goes off teleprompter, the question is not whether he will say something that is either untruthful or silly, but simply how many times he might do so at one outing.

I want that in Bartlett's Quotations or something.

You elect someone with a paper thin resume, no leadership experience, and (if you actually listen to what he says) he has overt marxist tendencies (paraphrased response to Joe the Plummer, ‘taxes are good because they spread the wealth...’) - yeah, I suppose eventually disappointment (reality) might sink in...

It is a function of trajectory. Most meteoric rises are accompanied by a similar fall from grace. Who is he? where did he come from? no one knows - it was never properly explored. Media’s Fault!

Glibness and cunning. The aforementioned are the only two attributes “The Divine One” possesses.

What went wrong is voters didn’t percieve the economic crisis to be another Great Depression.

Roosevelt had an almost free hand because voters perceived the Great Depression to be a crisis that required extrodinary action. They allowed Roosevelt to “reshape” America and government.

Obama wanted to reshape America and government also. Unfortunatly, American don’t think things are so bad that we need to throw everything out and start over (as Obama seems to be trying to do.) They want our economic problems addressed, not our economy reshaped. They want health care improved, not rebuilt from the ground up.

Obama didn’t get the crisis he was hoping for. That’s what happened.

Nothing is worse for a president than a growing belief among the public that it has been had.

Except perhaps treating the public like they are stupid. Calling us un-American, Nazi's and evil mongers doesn't help either.

Even your run of the mill gun toting bible clinging hick knows it is a lie to say you can provide health insurance to 46M people without increasing the deficit.

The rejection of Obama is more about the deficit than anything else, IMO.

Hanson has an amazing talent for literate rants that hit all the points.

This is over-the-top (because McClellan is such a dolt), but it made me laugh:

"Press Secretary Robert Gibbs makes Scott McClellan sound like a Cicero by comparison."

I don’t think he’s going to go quietly. I just had a truly creepy experience.

I was at a volunteer project when suddenly a group of strangely smiling, somewhat hyper people in their early 30s descended on us. My first thought was that they were Moonies or Hari Krishnas.

But they were worse: it turned out they were a crop of some 30 Americorps volunteers who had been “assigned” to my town and apparently are to be placed in each elementary school classroom. These people are absolute goofballs. They started gushing to us about how “the government” was going to do all these wonderful things and how they had been sent here to “help” us. Then they announced that they had one place left on their “team” and asked a couple of our volunteers if they wanted to “work in the community” and receive a salary for it.

I was stunned. I had no idea these people were fanning out across the country. This is one of the creepiest things I have seen yet. What exactly are they going to do sitting in our elementary school classrooms? Fortunately, I don’t think they can get into our Catholic school (a good argument for sending your kids there).

Even a rather liberal lady I was working with muttered “Hitler Youth” under her breath when they left. We were all very unnerved by this.

And it's too bad there is no other party to exploit this turn of events.
There is no Republican leader to lead the counter-offensive into the shattered front of the Demoncrats.
Just McAine/Schmidt kow-towing to the homosexual lobby, Tom Delay on Dance Fever, Steele looking more clueless every day.
Sara could, but the "Machine" just continues to slap her around.
We're screwed.

If McCain had done his JOB and told the American people who BO really is/was... he might have won the election.

But, we had to play nice.

there’s no there, there.
the left wants the government to run everything but they picked a guy who hasn’t run anything in his life.

The Obama Administration : What Went Wrong

That implies that there was something right with it to begin.

Sixth, there is a growing fear that Obamism is becoming cult-like and Orwellian

Becoming cult-like? Huh? It has been since the beginning...didn't the little symbol tip you off?

Hitler had his own symbol too you know?
