Seems Obama can make them swoooooon but they remember Limbaugh.
You go, Guy!
Rick Tucker writing for TownHall.com says Obama’s address to Congress accrued kudos for a day. Front pages applauded his audacious plans. By the weekend Barak was old news and lining garbage cans. Rush on the other hand mouthed four words that are still lighting fires and making headlines.
The words, part if a diatribe decrying socialist plans for America, were that Rush wanted “Barack Obama to fail. ” They were clearly and easily understood by people who understand context. That’s really all that matters. People do understand what Limbaugh meant. Some people just can’t stand that Limbaugh puts such a memorable stamp on it.
How can the American people get a do-over? This is not the time for an impeachment proof Congress! Don’t tell me the pre-election crowd on the Left is still in la-la-land. They have homes and mortgages, college funds and grocery bills, don’t they? They have consciences, don’t they? Will they really be content with bread lines and government hand outs?
Since President Obama (that’s hard for me to say) has been in office he has done nothing to indicate that he loves this country as we know it. Is raising taxes on small businesses when it is small businesses that fuel the imagination and the entrepreneurial vision of America, truly in our best interest. Is Obama’s hand in the pocket of those companies that have worked and produced our economical growth any better than unscrupulous CEO’s plundering our dreams. Is raising the capital gains tax the end-all and be-all of his vision for America. I think 95% of the American people are beginning to get the picture; in place of promised tax cuts, and it’s $13 dollars a week.
When Obama gets through with America our charitable institutions will be needed more than ever but drained and stretched beyond their limits, thanks to putting punitive limits on tax breaks. America is charitable but if our money is owed the government coffer where will these heavenly pennies come from.
Obama, the community organizer, is proving to be no more than that. What can a golden tongue do to feed and fuel the nation. His charisma simply blinds you to the fact that we are a rather big and unwieldy “community” that needs more than an amateur at the helm. America needs our oil companies and power plants operating at the top of their game in this time of competitive pressure from China and other growing nations. This may not be a good time to cap carbon and punish success.
Growing government is not the kind of job growth America needs. The money in the pockets of the wealthy is best put to work not out to pasture. Crashing the stock market and taking it from their pockets to line those of government isn’t putting it in your pocket. Do you really want to fill out a government form and wait for approval when you want to go to a doctor or build an American dream of your own?
Just maybe your dream for America and Obama’s aren’t the same dream. His dream, call it what you may, is based on an ideology that has been tried and failed. It’s not life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
“Hey it’s amateur hour at our darkest moment!”
Cramer: President Obama has caused “the greatest wealth destruction I have seen by a president.”
“A young kid took me aside. He said I was right when I said ‘we’ve elected a Leninist’.”
Neely Tucker writes in the Washington Post: “Science is closing in on humanoids and their seedy necessity to lie about almost everything, but don’t worry. We’ve had tens of thousands of years of practice at it, and until you stick your head inside a machine that plays with the protons in your brain so that it can film the neurons firing in your pre-frontal cortex, you can probably get away with it.”
Tucker quotes Maureen O’Sullivan, a professor of psychology at the University of San Francisco, who says, as most of us would, “I want things to be nice.” And this is the problem, she notes: Things are often not nice, and yet people who should know better ignore or look past the unpleasantness of the facts to see a happier version of reality to keep things, you know, nice.”
I say, all this sounds like the state of the nation, swallowing lie after lie, looking for sunshine on a cloudy day.
From the Anchoress for a laugh here’s some of our politicians and then this:
These are days that pull me in directions I don’t want to go. My day starts with prayer and reflection. That sets a tone I want to preserve. You probably know how things go from there. The world tries to be the boss of me.
The best I can come up with as an image to sustain my wholeness is that of an oil lamp, full and lit, sitting on a stand. The world changes around it, winds blow, it’s light burns brightly at times; at other times it’s flame flickers and it needs it’s wick lengthened or trimmed; depending. What I see is that there’s no confusion about it’s being. It is not the world and it is not the turmoil. It is a light on a lamp stand. If it could feel, it might feel threatened, inflamed, dampened. The reality is, it remains a lamp on a stand with one reason for being.
So here I sit on my stand (pc at hand), resolute and responsive to the day, unconquered and unyielding. Whether darkness prevails around me, in some small way, does depend on me and others like me.
So everybody, how about it? In chorus now! “This little light of mine…..”
Lest we forget. Thanks to the Anchoress and the Rainmaker this outside of time debate speaks not only for itself but it pulls back the veil on Obama. BTW \”apocalypse\” is the word associated with pulling back the veil.
Be Holy!
