Obama V: For Vendetta

Re: Obama V: For Vendetta

This guy makes Pat Buchanan look like Barney Frank. :cool:

When the guys at my work hear about this, they'll be more likely to vote for him, not less.

Last I heard he was leading by about 20 points. His opponent is nearly invisible in NoVa, and this is the only part of VA where he has a hope of building up votes. I'd say you're looking at the next Governor.
 
Re: Obama V: For Vendetta

For the sake of responsible t-shirt sloganing, the actual quote: "We hear of the conversion of water into wine at the marriage in Cana as of a miracle. But this conversion is, through the goodness of God, made every day before our eyes. Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards; there it enters the roots of the vines, to be changed into wine; a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy."
But, like so many others it's a little more awkward when quoted accurately.

One of the main reasons to hang around here in the cafe is to garner further knowledge from all the high priced education others have obtained. This is one of those times. However, I like the Cliff Notes version better. Mostly because I like Beer a lot more than wine. ;)

Granted Deeds was nominated to be the outsider candidate and not the typical NoVa Dem, but he still needs to actually get votes there to win.

Not following this race too closely, but perhaps waiting until late October might be in order here. Recall Sen. Allen's campaign imploded over one ill made comment at a campaign rally. Its almost always an advantage to be a statewide officeholder running against someone representing just a portion of the electorate. However, in terms of the governor's races this year, it seems the GOP candidates have done well to fly under the radar a little as the election approaches. That's easy to do in the summer when the only people paying attention are activists, but its a little harder to pull off going into the last month of the campaign. I have no idea how well or ill this affects his campaign, but the guy seems to have some pretty extreme positions, even by social conservative standards.

Geoffrey P. Hunt blogs at American Thinker that "Obama is on track to have the most spectacularly failed presidency since Woodrow Wilson."

It's not so much that he's a phony, knows nothing about economics, is historically illiterate, and woefully small minded for the size of the task-- all contributory of course. It's that he's not one of us. And whatever he is, his profile is fuzzy and devoid of content, like a cardboard cutout made from delaminated corrugated paper. Moreover, he doesn't command our respect and is unable to appeal to our own common sense. His notions of right and wrong are repugnant and how things work just don't add up. They are not existential. His descriptions of the world we live in don't make sense and don't correspond with our experience.

Of course, he goes on to say that Bush's problem was he was too uncomfortable with conservatives and that Obama may loathe Americans, so I'm having difficulty giving any credence to his analysis.

It's September of the first year, folks, still a long time to go, things could swing wildly either way due to events we can't foresee, so let's not get too ahead of ourselves.

Of 14 major polls on realclearpolitics.com, I count the 13 other polls that approve of Obama more than they disaprove. That makes Rasmussen and mookie's post as outliers.

GW misunderstood and Nixon redeemed? It shows the danger of letting the crazies back in charge.

The common theme between these two posts...is that the media on the right is too bias to be trusted with facts.

And the media on the left (aka the MSM) is so biased it wouldn't know a fact if it came up and kicked them in the cojones. :eek: :rolleyes:

Webb ran a very smart race (with a lot of high profile out of state support and money). Deeds seems like he's running out of the cop car with the megaphone from the Blues Brothers.

I had hopes for Deeds at the beginning -- the state is gradually becoming less rural, more educated and more affluent and is certainly going to be blue in the future. McDonnell ran against Deeds once before for a lower office and only won by, literally, a couple hundred votes. But this time around it's been all one way so far. Red Virginians are out for blood after blowing the state in the POTUS race (that genuinely shocked them -- not just to lose to a liberal but a black liberal, talk about an ice cold wake up call!). Blue Virginians are still smugly celebrating sweeping all the important elections and are laurel-sitting. Also all sitting gov parties are vulnerable during a recession -- lots of states are going to flip.

But it doesn't help that the Dem campaign so far has been invisible.
 
Re: Obama V: For Vendetta

So I hear they had a pro secession rally in Texas recently where two people who plan to run for governor talked about how they hate the American Flag and Texas should leave...can I be the first wave goodbye? I would love for them to leave and see what happens when the Republic of Texas fails. I mean think of the impact on their college sports teams alone ;)
 
Re: Obama V: For Vendetta

Texas, Alaska and Quebec should form a "Most Annoying People in the Western Hemisphere" republic. It would actually have substantial land area and natural resources. Rick Perry, Sarah Palin and Pauline Marois could mud-wrestle for Head of State, the official title of which would of course be Homecoming Queen.

Can we have, as a counterpoint, VT, CA, and ONT? For every nutjob on the right, there is one on the left. They provide the entertainment to the Mark Twains and Will Rogers of this world.
 
Re: Obama V: For Vendetta

I want one of the Secessionist candidates to win and the first time they need help with something and come with their hat in hand I want Obama (or whoever) to make them go hold a press conference, drape themselves in the Stars and Stripes and BEG in front of the nation not only for forgiveness but whatever it is they need from the government. That state is so friggin stupid and arrogant it is downright dangerous!

To be fair, if you were going to have a Most Annoying People republic, the capital would have to be Boston. ;)

I was trying to be deliberately not left or right (PQ is about as left as you'll get west of Paris) when creating the MAP. It's not the politics of Alaskans and Texans that's so irritating, it's that bogus working class hero all hat no cattle Robert W. Service BS persona.

Frankly I'm surprised. How did Rasmussen find 30% of the people in its poll who actually liked Obama? I think his polling methodology is getting a little lax - usually he has Obama starting off in negative numbers. :D
