Democrats in Congress passed laws that people of certain ancestry were not human either. That made no difference to the facts. Evil is as evil does. Lies are the prime tool of evil.

Hate is too. Preaching class hatred isn't math, it's evil. Period, barry.

This is huge! David Brooks from the New York Times has had it with Obama. It resonates because Matt Taibbi immediately attacked him today in Rolling Stone.

Obama Rejects Obamaism
By DAVID BROOKS
Published: September 19, 2011

I’m a sap, a specific kind of sap. I’m an Obama Sap.

When the president said the unemployed couldn’t wait 14 more months for help and we had to do something right away, I believed him. When administration officials called around saying that the possibility of a double-dip recession was horrifyingly real and that it would be irresponsible not to come up with a package that could pass right away, I believed them.

I liked Obama’s payroll tax cut ideas and urged Republicans to play along. But of course I’m a sap. When the president unveiled the second half of his stimulus it became clear that this package has nothing to do with helping people right away or averting a double dip. This is a campaign marker, not a jobs bill.

It recycles ideas that couldn’t get passed even when Democrats controlled Congress. In his remarks Monday the president didn’t try to win Republicans to even some parts of his measures. He repeated the populist cries that fire up liberals but are designed to enrage moderates and conservatives.

He claimed we can afford future Medicare costs if we raise taxes on the rich. He repeated the old half-truth about millionaires not paying as much in taxes as their secretaries. (In reality, the top 10 percent of earners pay nearly 70 percent of all income taxes, according to the I.R.S. People in the richest 1 percent pay 31 percent of their income to the federal government while the average worker pays less than 14 percent, according to the Congressional Budget Office.)

This wasn’t a speech to get something done. This was the sort of speech that sounded better when Ted Kennedy was delivering it. The result is that we will get neither short-term stimulus nor long-term debt reduction anytime soon, and I’m a sap for thinking it was possible.

Yes, I’m a sap. I believed Obama when he said he wanted to move beyond the stale ideological debates that have paralyzed this country. I always believe that Obama is on the verge of breaking out of the conventional categories and embracing one of the many bipartisan reform packages that are floating around.

But remember, I’m a sap. The White House has clearly decided that in a town of intransigent Republicans and mean ideologues, it has to be mean and intransigent too. The president was stung by the liberal charge that he was outmaneuvered during the debt-ceiling fight. So the White House has moved away from the Reasonable Man approach or the centrist Clinton approach.

It has gone back, as an appreciative Ezra Klein of The Washington Post conceded, to politics as usual. The president is sounding like the Al Gore for President campaign, but without the earth tones. Tax increases for the rich! Protect entitlements! People versus the powerful! I was hoping the president would give a cynical nation something unconventional, but, as you know, I’m a sap.

Being a sap, I still believe that the president’s soul would like to do something about the country’s structural problems. I keep thinking he’s a few weeks away from proposing serious tax reform and entitlement reform. But each time he gets close, he rips the football away. He whispered about seriously reforming Medicare but then opted for changes that are worthy but small. He talks about fundamental tax reform, but I keep forgetting that he has promised never to raise taxes on people in the bottom 98 percent of the income scale.

That means when he talks about raising revenue, which he is right to do, he can’t really talk about anything substantive. He can’t tax gasoline. He can’t tax consumption. He can’t do a comprehensive tax reform. He has to restrict his tax policy changes to the top 2 percent, and to get any real revenue he’s got to hit them in every which way. We’re not going to simplify the tax code, but by God Obama’s going to raise taxes on rich people who give to charity! We’ve got to do something to reduce the awful philanthropy surplus plaguing this country!

The president believes the press corps imposes a false equivalency on American politics. We assign equal blame to both parties for the dysfunctional politics when in reality the Republicans are more rigid and extreme. There’s a lot of truth to that, but at least Republicans respect Americans enough to tell us what they really think. The White House gives moderates little morsels of hope, and then rips them from our mouths. To be an Obama admirer is to toggle from being uplifted to feeling used.

The White House has decided to wage the campaign as fighting liberals. I guess I understand the choice, but I still believe in the governing style Obama talked about in 2008. I may be the last one. I’m a sap.

Thanks Hoot. Yeah, I remember the crude thumbhole stocks all the Ak's were wearing. And an 11 round .22 magazine is also an "assault weapon" by Clinton Lie Law standards.

Great technique. Give an object a scary name, ban scary name, give next object scary name, repeat. Worthy of Stalin. Read their book. ( steal it ) Here's the new web site. The "exploit a crippled guy to gain power with extra buzzwords" dot org. http://www.bradycampaign.org/

Bad laws give unexpected results.
700cc bikes became big when the HD 750cc+ tariff came. After it expired, the classic 3/4 Litre size was almost dead. 600's ruled. Where's the 750 class?

"If you love me, help me pass this bill."
First, that's a severe psych disorder you got there. Second, you haven't actually written a bill yet, so this whole thing is a dishonest campaign scam. Third, you use hate as a weapon, and therefore prove yourself an evil &%^#$@, simply awaiting more murders in your name to be one of the greats your appointed staff loves so much. Like Mao. Or Che.

I confess to a bit of enjoyment watching hard core democrats, folks like Check Schumer, racing to get as far away from this guy as they can . . . .

Totally clueless on the most basic economics and then, when even folks like the NY Times and other liberal media outlets, start "fact checking" his silly "Buffet Tax" it turns out about everything he and Warren said was patently inaccurate.

It's like watching a blindfolded kid swing at a piñata.

Remember Afghanistan? The "right war" per our current Prez? The one he sent a surge to, then announced the time we were pulling the troops out? You Know, the time tested tactic for utter failure, where you tell the enemy when they can take over?

Hey, barry! Let me help you with the domestic situation. Announce your withdraw from D.C. in Jan. 2013. I'm sure the results will be much better than RPG attacks on your HQ there. Much better.

The number of libs showing up to act as yea-sayers . . is falling like a rock as "Mr. Transparency" threatens to assert Executive Privilege with regard to his correspondence with Solyndra in the days leading up to them carting off (check out the chronology . . they didn't "borrow" this, they stole it) $535,000,000 of taxpayer funds.

There's also that nagging question of subrogating the feds when the law prohibits it.

Keep an eye on Rahm.

Obama is an ideological prisoner of his own making as he is incapable of change like President Clinton was. Obama gives transparency a new unintended name where his lies are transparent for all but the faithful to see. If we are lucky, his intransigence will lead to his downfall and Independents will restore America back to a Right of center nation.

Solyndragate is one step closer to the Obama Crime Syndicate now that the Solyndra CEO and CFO plan on pleading the Fifth in the upcoming Congressional hearing this Friday. Pissing off Congress is something one should never do. They will circle the wagons and drag the Solyndra Affair deep into the main election cycle. Is LightSquare right behind?

Rahm indicted, Holder fired, Obama impeached.

Now that would be a Major League triple play. Is "I am not a crook" or an "October suprise" far behind?

The book ( which I have not seen, or read, just heard the book tour on the more rabid talking head radio shows ) about Barack's coke use ( as he has admitted ) and gay affair with a traveler, ( which he has not commented on ) I personally discount as BS. At least an attempt to make money by a dishonorable fellow.

Not that it would surprise me if he were, in fact, bi. There is some indication of childhood abuse by one of his mentors in his biography. ( or, ghost written autobiography if you prefer )

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Marshall_Davis

Of course, the old media does not care if Barack Obama has a history of close relations with communists and racists. They dan't care that his appointees may love Mao, or Lenin, either.

I also don't give a darn. ( about current sex scandals...if consensual ) If there is a sex scandal reported in The Globe, I really don't buy it, since they have insisted for years that GWB and Condi Rice were lovers. Not likely. If its The Inquirer... they are pretty darn good on politician sex scandals, and might be worth a read.

I find that politicians sometimes believe their own BS and think they are free from mortal ethics. ( this is bi-partisan ) When you through in a more than healthy dose of Narcissist... affairs are common.
