Obama tells activists 'change is hard,' in video message to Netroots Nation
The Hill ^ | June 10, 2012 | Meghashyam Mali

President Obama taped a surprise video message for activists attending the progressive Netroots Nation conference, telling them that "change is hard, but we've seen it's possible."

"Change is also doubling down on clean energy and enacting historic fuel efficiency standards, changing our entire trajectory after decades of inaction," Obama continues.

"Change is the fact that for the first time in history you don't have to hide who you love to serve the country," he adds, referencing the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."

"At this make or break moment for the middle class, we face our most important fight yet..."

I certainly agree this IS a "make or break moment" -- not just for the middle class, but for the nation.

Just wait until his second term...

America defeated Communism in Russia. Now we need to defeat Communism right here at home.

Another article on the same subject:

Obama makes his case to supporters at progressive conference

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/06/10/obama-makes-his-case-to-supporters-at-progressive-conference/

“Organizers describe the conference as a “giant family reunion for the left,” and his remarks could be seen as an attempt to rekindle the excitement of any grassroots supporters whose flames have dampened given the realities of governing in Washington, D.C. “

This election will be decided by the turnout of the two sides.

Next January, when these people exit the White House, we'll look back at the four years of Obama and plead temporary insanity.

This election will be decided by the turnout of the two sides.

Think a moment, Innovative, do you really want the Left to turn out

the illegal alien vote;
the dead vote;
the multiple negro vote;
the stupid vote;
the vote-early-vote-often-college-brat vote;
have UN watchers observing the votes;
have Black Panthers guarding the votes; and
have Soros-paid Spaniards counting the votes?

Because all of those things will happen.

You are absolutely right, the left will turn out even their pet parakeets and all the dead voters.

That is why it is critically important that our side stop sulking, and focus on defeating Obama, and the only way to do that IS by getting out, holding their noses, if needed, and vote for Romney, to stop Obama.

The American Revolution was about change ... for freedom.

Obama's "change" means a degeneration of freedom: more laws, more controls ... less freedom.
