Amen to that!

"The American people have already decided that they generally like Obama the person, and barring a smoking gun, that isn't going to change in the near future, and certainly not by peddling stories based on pure speculation. Focusing on Obama the person rather than on his policies doesn't help stop the march toward socialism, if anything, it accelerates it."
-- Philip Klein, The American Spectator

  1. I am surprised at the attitudes of conservatives about issues like Obama's birth certificate. I would direct you to this:

    http://www.pjtv.com/video/afterburner_with_Bill_Whittle/__the_Media%2c_The_left_and_GOP_Elitists_vs_Sarah_Palin%3A_A_Lesson_on_How_to_Destroy_a_Leader/2235/

    (and why in the heck can't you past these things into the comments? Sheesh. I hope I got it right. If not, google it. Whittle, Palin, destroy leader)

    Review the last five or so years of the GWB administration. Think of the conspiracies: 9/11, the wiretapping, Cheney and the CIA, Cheney and the oil companies, the Plame affair. I have probably left some out.

    The impact? Ongoing damage to Bush and the Republicans.

    Remember the rumors about Palin: an affair with her husband's business partner, Trig, Trig, Trig, her daughters, and on and on.

    The impact? Ongoing damage to Palin and the ticket.

    The fact is, rumors like this have an impact. And too many people who don't think Obama is a Kenyan citizen think that Obama is hiding SOMETHING.

    So why the Whittle video? He concludes with the great example of the Japanese and the Marines. No more mercy. Scortched earth. Destroy your enemy, see him driven before you, and hear the lamentation of his women.

    Time to unleash every weapon and destroy those who seek to destroy us. Otherwise, we are following the same path as our more moderate GOP advisors.

    No thanks.

  2. Obama the person may be a very likeable guy. Trouble is, I knoe many people I like that I would not want to see as President. What's "likeability" got to do with running the country?

  3. Posted by K~Bob:

    Klein is advocating a strategy similar to a team down four scores in the second half playing "prevent" defense.

    One need nor be rude or offensive to engage the opposition at ALL levels. Mr Klein doesn't understand this.

  4. So Stacy, is this post a subtle swipe at my theory that Obama is the pilot of a UFO who married bigfoot with Elvis as his best man? I resent it, I tell you.

    It doesn't matter. I don't like the guy and right now, most Americans, IMHO, are hiding their heads, if not in the sand, then in a painfully contortionist way that involves their anus.

  5. Sorry Scott, I agree with Bill Whittle. We don't have to be as false and dirty as the Left, but we do have to stop pulling our punches. We have to stop self-censoring. McCain wouldn't attack Obama's radical past for fear of being called a "raaaacist."

    As it is now, we're nice and they're vicious. They control both houses of Congress and the White House. It's not too hard to figure out that we need a more effective way to fight the Left and the Dems.
