Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

I don't think you know what the "Laffer Curve" describes.

Bozo the Clown economics?

No. Something d-o-o economics...voodoo economics.

Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

Personal courage is not a requirement to be president, but you gotta give "the one" credit for standing up to dangerous Jan Brewer the way he did. What an inspiration. What a leader. What a yutz.

And Obama's chief poodle at CBS, Bob Schieffer, pronounces himself "appalled" at the exchange between Brewer and POTUS. No word on his opinion of a network trying to kneecap a president with forged documents a few days before an election. Bob, we promise to keep Jan away from you. Because she'd kick YOUR a*s too.

So wait, you're saying the economy causes rain?

I knew I should have paid more attention freshman year.

Rainmaker.

Rainmaker is a fictional superhero from the `Gen 13' comic series who has the superpowers of altering the weather and the movement of water with her thoughts. She also has a natural aptitude for combat tactics.

The usually peace-seeking activist was revealed as a lesbian in the second issue of the ongoing series.

I love that Jan Brewer stuff, no one has ever disagreed with a sitting president before, especially a women
 
Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

Why has the media never mentioned it? If he's black, racism would explain why he's a failure.

Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

This is a recent analysis by the examiner that combines all available state polls (and includes late probable changes back to their historic voting such as Michigan and S Carolina). It assumes the best Republican in each state (which is Romney 90% of the time). IMO it shows just how close it appears with a change by Ohio and North Carolina to the GOP gives the election to them.

I'm always amused by analysis like this (and this is not directed at you major). I'm assuming based on selective polling in head to head matchups plus some other tweaks it has Obama's re-election campaign basically coming down to Ohio and North Carolina. Ohhhhhhh some would say, that's pretty dicey as NC probably goes back to the GOP next election. Pundits like Rothenberg and Cook often fall for this.

The problem is its based on Barack Obama not facing Romney nor Gingrich in the general election, but Republican Jesus. Republican Jesus basically is a hybrid of Gingrich's appeal down South with Romney's Northeast moderation with a touch of Reagan thrown in. Republican Jesus will suffer no dip in appeal despite a $1B ad campaign against HIM in the general election. HE will also run strong in diverse places like New England (NH), the New South (VA & NC), Florida, the Industrial Midwest (OH, IN, PA) and the Southwest as Hispanics tend to be big fans of Jesus. Oh, and HE will also ace the debates and suffer no ill effect from the worst rated Congress in history.

Look, if Gingrich is the nominee he basically gives you the McCain results and nothing more. If its Romney he struggles to hold onto the South as a portion of Evangelicals will not vote for a Mormon any more than they'd vote for Scientologist. That's not going to matter in Texas but it will in Florida. He also needs to go into Ohio and tell people that closing down their factories and shipping jobs overseas is good for them. If Romney wins the nomination, its not going to be because of his likeability (net unfavorable rating in several polls) nor his ability to unite the base. It will basically be because he outspent his rivals like 10 to 1. That advantage won't exist in November even when counting Super Pac money.
 
Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

Pat Buchanan weighs in on US Foreign Policy:

Who Commissioned Us to Remake the World? » Patrick J. Buchanan - Official Website
http://buchanan.org/blog/who-commissioned-us-to-remake-the-world-4994
January 28, 2012
By Patrick J. Buchanan

U.S. Ambassador Michael McFaul, Obama’s man in Moscow, who just took up his post, has received a rude reception. And understandably so.

In 1992, McFaul was the representative in Russia of the National Democratic Institute, a U.S. government-funded agency whose mission is to promote democracy abroad.

The NDI has been tied to color-coded or Orange revolutions such as those that dethroned regimes in Serbia, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan, Georgia and Lebanon. The project miscarried in Belarus.

The NDI is one of several agencies, dating to the 1980s, that were set up to subvert communist regimes. With the end of the Cold War, however, these agencies were not decommissioned, but recommissioned to serve as something of an American Comintern.

Where the old Comintern of Lenin sought to instigate communist revolutions across the West and its empires, post-Cold War America decided to promote democratic revolutions to remake the world in the image of late 20th century America.

In 2002, McFaul wrote a book: “Russia’s Unfinished Revolution.”

Vladimir Putin’s men are not unreasonably asking if he was sent to Moscow to finish that revolution. Putin has already accused Hillary Clinton of flashing the signal for street demonstrations to begin — to protest Russia’s December’s elections.

Nor is it surprising the Putin’s people are suspicious of McFaul, who added to his problems by meeting with anti-Putin dissidents the day after he presented his credentials.

McFaul says this is part of his “dual-track engagement” with Russian society. Before leaving for Moscow, he told NPR’s “Morning Edition”: “We’re not going to get into the business of dictating (Russia’s) path (to democracy). … We’re just going to support what we like to call ‘universal values’ — not American values, not Western values, universal values.”

But what, exactly, are these “universal values”?

And who are we to impose them on other nations? Did Divine Providence assign us this mission? Who do we Americans think we are?

After all, we do not even agree ourselves on what is moral and immoral, good and evil. Indeed, our own deep disagreements on what is moral and what is not are at the root of the culture wars tearing this country apart.

In America, women have a constitutional right to an abortion. Scores of millions have availed themselves of that right since Roe v. Wade. Yet traditionalists of many faiths — Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Orthodox and Jewish — reject any such woman’s right and regard it as a moral abomination.

Do homosexuals have a right to cohabit, form civil unions and marry?

In a few American states, yes; in others, no. But try to impose those values on nations of the Muslim and Third Worlds, where homosexuality is a moral outrage and even a capital offense, and our ambassadors will find themselves in physical peril.

Does McFaul believe democracy is a universally superior system of government? Yet our own founding fathers detested one-man, one-vote democracy. Democracy does not even get a mention in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights or the Federalist Papers.

The author of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson, believed society should be ruled by a “natural aristocracy” of “virtue and talent.”

If the promotion of democracy is a mission of our diplomats, are we to subvert the monarchies of Morocco, Jordan, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia?

When we see how democracy empowered the Muslim Brotherhood and Salafis in Egypt, Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, does it even make sense to insist that it be embraced by nations where the populations are pervasively anti-American?

What is the universally right stand on capital punishment — the Rick Perry position in Texas or the Andrew Cuomo position in New York?

In the United States, all religions — Santeria, Wicca, Islam, Christianity — are to be treated equally and all kept out of the public square and the pubic schools. In a Muslim world that contains a fifth of mankind, Islam is the one true faith. Rival faiths have few or no rights.

Are we going to push the Islamic world to treat all religions equally?

We celebrate religious, racial and ethnic diversity. The Chinese, who persecute Uighurs, Tibetans, Christians and Falun Gong, detest that diversity and fear it will tear their country apart.

We believe in freedom of speech and the press.

Yet, in France, if you deny the Turks committed genocide against the Armenians in 1915, you are guilty of a crime, while in Turkey if you affirm that the Turks committed genocide, you have committed a crime. Should U.S. diplomats battle for repeal of both laws? Or mind our own business?

If America wishes to lead the world, let us do it by example, as we once did, not by hectoring every nation on earth to adopt the American way, which as of now, does not seem to be working all that well for Americans.

McFaul should stick to his diplomatic duties.

Jefferson had it right, “We wish not to meddle with the internal affairs of any country.”
 
Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

I really do hope they try. Sure fire way to confirm what the public suspects...congressional GOP is strictly obstructionist.
Everybody who can understand this already understands it. If they try the same 29% who are always the problem will think it's legitimate, and another 15% or so will look up briefly from American Stuffers, see the (R) after the sponsor's name, and be for it.

You and the rest of the libs are just so superior. At least you think you are. Some might call that arrogance. Such a pity "stupid" people can vote, eh?

It sure is, but there's nothing to be done about that. However for a good laugh could you please detail for us what impeachable offenses you think Obama has committed....
