If you have a failure in policies, do not have a platform to run on because President Obama and his administration are no longer connecting with the people, what do you do? As a radical, you follow the Obama/Alinisky Philosophy of Attack, Distract and Dig Dirt.
That playbook today is in a panic mode with specious claims, as Obama advocates, with a 55 % disapproval rating, said over the weekend, “We need you fired up; you can defy the conventional wisdom.”
Obama implored supporters, assuming he has the same number he had when he was elected with promises he didn’t keep, to turn out and vote in the same numbers they did when he was elected president two years ago, trying to buttress a democratic controlled congress which is in trouble following Obama’s failed policies. Many who fear being thrown under the bus are seeking the support of former President Clinton than Obama.
But even those that once were Obama supporters, are asking why?
Because the stimulus program provided jobs with an unemployment rate of more than 20% across this country? Because he brought back the Real Estate market and resolved the problems of the banks, foreclosures, and the liberal support of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, with the democratic philosophy that everyone should have a home whether they can afford it or not? The auto industry bailout, which benefited unions, and the roller coaster ride of the economy since he was in office? Or, the spending of this administration, taking us into a $1.3 trillion dollar debt? Now with all of this on one’s plate we haven’t talked about Cap & Trade, or the bailout of Wall Street, while duplicitously attacking the bandits, but allowing Corporate bonuses the likes of which they didn’t see in the good times? And, how about the non-winning attitude of the Afghanistan War – let’s get out at any price? Now his premier piece of legislation, which will prove to be Obama’s folly, is health care reform – failing before it got out of the gate?
Oh, there’s more on his plate, because Obama has only been in office 2 years. He is pleading the public to allow him to complete his mission, which most Americans are opposed to.
So what is left for Obama to help his Dems?
Attack, distract and dig up dirt, an Alinisky philosophy and classic Chicago politics.
And this is what happened over the weekend.
He wants his followers to once again say, ‘Yes we can.’
Instead of running on his failed policies he is delivering an impotent plea. He said the election on Nov. 2 is ” a contest between our deep[est hopes and our deepest fears”
” And the other side is playing on fear. That’s what they do.”
He again turned to attacks on millions of dollars in campaign ads run by independent groups that do not under law have to disclose their donors, referred to special interests as an “empire.” But where is the disclosure of Obama’s campaign funding – we’ve been waiting for this for two years.
He referred to the special interests as an”empire.”
I find it difficult to comprehend why Obama is not running on his achievements cited in this column – you know, the one’s with the question marks. Obama is not running for office – his colleagues are scampering off a sinking ship like a rats while he tries to salvage control of congress. Most running for office don’t want his help.
There is a serious character flaw of Democrats – despite their specious attacks they don’t even read the bills they pass. The leader of the House, Nancy Pelosi promised us a Halloween treat in health care reform, but had no idea whether the treat was a trick or treat.
You see the Dems have nothing to talk about which puts them in an attack mode.
The level of arrogance coming out of the White House is just short of Napoleonic.
There is a clear disdain for the electorate.
I can’t help but ask the question as to why the electorate, in Obama’s mind was so rational two years ago, but are irrational today?
It is difficult for Obama to understand why immigration with assimilation is the way to integrate; and immigration without assimilation leads to anarchy.
How come Germany recognizes this?
Obama is not fighting a war in Afghanistan, he is fighting a war domestically.
As a Marxist and radical, Obama sees an enemy that must be eliminated in the United States and they are the ‘haves’ who ‘opress’ and rule the ‘have nots.’
Obama’s policies are not what our founding fathers had in mind. Nor is drifting away from the constitution what most Americans have in mind.
As we have often said in this column, Obama doesn’t say what he means and doesn’t mean what he says. He only delivers a message he would hope you accept for our future. And it is time that those that were conned by Obama’s rhetoric realize that all along he was about redistribution of wealth, destruction of capitalism, the loss of real estate values, jobs and the destruction of the finest nation on earth, with an altruistic goal of world order and a title to which he would like to ascend.
