Obama's wakeup call, but will he answer?
The GOPNation ^ | January 20, 2010 | Bryan Wolfe

What happened in the Bay State had less to do with ideology and more to do with a realization that our nation’s leaders have become tone-deaf at best, and downright enemies of this country that they’ve been given a chance to govern, at worst.

What made President Obama a successful presidential candidate in 2008 was his message of hope, change and an understanding that in America, playing just around the political center was the best place to govern. After all, Candidate Obama promised that in his Washington, both sides would get a seat at the table and compromise would be the order of the day. And, after all of the back-and-forth between Democrats and Republicans going back to the 1990’s, this message certainly was appealing to many Americans.

Unfortunately for the Democrats, and for the nation in general, is a real fact that Obama was not the candidate that he showed himself to be. Instead, what America got was a left-wing nut job that never ran anything whose sole purpose seems to be to recreate this country into a failed socialist state in the mold of Cuba, Venezuela and other leftist embarrassments. In doing so, this president in 365 days has proposed unworkable solutions that do nothing to make us a better country, but rather whose goal is to set us back and cause Americans to fight other Americans.

Massachusetts is still a Democratic-state, but its people seem to have woken up knowing what works and what doesn’t. While average Democrats understand that our nation’s healthcare system needs revised and its uninsured need a lifeline, they also know that bankrupting the nation to do so isn’t right. They also know that laws should be created under the careful eye of the public, and not behind closed doors on Christmas Eve. Finally, they understand that there are enemies of America that want to kill us and as such, those people shouldn’t be given the same rights as American citizens.

And, yes, even in Massachusetts, they understand that the Union worker down the street (or in the same household) shouldn’t be given a sweetheart deal when other Americans are asked to pay forty-percent more in taxes for the same “rights”, just because they work in the private sector.

Perhaps what happened last night was the return of common sense voting by the masses. Of course, whether Washington is listening is another story. And if they are not, November’s mid-terms will make last night look like an appetizer easily forgotten after the meal arrives.

Obama is a fascist. (YES! He passes all the historical tests.)

He will not answer, except to force majeur, like all other fascists of recent history.America has yet to learn that lesson.

I think he will do what he falsely accused the Cambridge police of doing.

Act stupidly.
