Delusional At the White House

Well, they can drive-on with this bill, if they want to, but they are gonna regret it big time come November.  What happened last night, will happen all over the country.

You know when both the wonder twins are together so that they can lock rings… you know they are into some heavy duty damage control. I don’t think they really are this stupid. But, they think that we are. Or at least that enough of us are.

Obrager has to make everything about himself.  commenting on the brown victory he said “the same forces that swept brown into office swept me into offic”  Everything has to come around to him.  I HATE this creep.

Obama was elected mostly on Bush dissention. Brown was elected on Obama dissention. Is that the same thing or the opposite? 

I heard a guest on talk radio compare Presidnt Clinton and President Obama. He said that Clinton learned how to work with the opposition as a governor to get things accomplished and he also had to work with in the state’s budget. When the mid lerm elections increased the republicans in Congress, Clinton used his experience as a govenor to get things accomplished, he adjusted. Obama does not have the expereince of working with the opposition and reaching a compromise to get things accomplished nor has Obama ever had to work with in a budget. The guest thought that Obama will not adjust because he does not have that in his background to teach him that sometimes it’s neccesary to do that to get things accomplished.

 ”Yeah, I’m sure this legislation will improve with age.”

Yeah, it’s a fine whine being served up by Reid.

Panic! Sheer panic! Axelroid stuttered through the whole clip. The minute Obama received word that Brown won the election, he turned to Axelroid and said: Gee boss, I thought you told me that we’d be able to run the United States the same way we ran Chicago. What are we gonna do now boss?!!

That could be. Rahm is a rat and Oblockhead’s ship of state is listing so some scurrying is definitely in order.

It`s not the health in the bill that Obama wants. It`s the control.

“reminds me of the dogged, doctrinaire delusional behavior of Dick Cheney, ”

Considering the population of the US, you’d think we’d get some better heads together to run the country than the losers we continually get sadddled with. These idiots have two things in common: invincible ignorance and invincible arrogance.

Yeah, that’s what I want in leaders. Sarcasm off.

Right on.  Just because I oppose Obamacare (and Obama) doesn’t mean I now love Bush/Cheney.  If Republicans don’t get the picture, also, they are going to lose big-time. I hope more Patriots and Independents, and Tea Party members start running for public office especially at the Federal level.

Hey Retired, can  I get some of that Melange, I have a yearning to be completely out of touch with my physical self.

What I wonder is why we keep electing presidents with deep-seated psychological problems.  Obama’s mother basically abandoned him as a child and so did his non-existent father; Bush grew up in a dysfunctional, cold household where they barely had time to tell him his sister had died before going to play golf for the day; Clinton obviously has deep seated psychological issues outpicturing as sexual addiction; Bush senior was the cold-hearted parent of Bush jr….on and on and on.  This is one reason I would like to see Sarah Palin as pres: she has a large, warm, “normal” family.  It would be nice to have someone psychologically healthy running our country.

Looked like buyers remorse to me.

The scary answer is that they are easier to manipulate and control than people who is psychologically fit.

Sounds like Yosemite Sam.

Puma.for.Life,

The way our elections are administered and the secrecy involved (no checks and balances, transparency or public counts where a citizen can actually see each vote counted (and we’re not talking about a machine counting the ballot as “public”), we really don’t know if our elections are legitimate or not.

In the case of Scott Brown, the people were so energized and angry and were out in public expressing it loud and clear, plus it was only one state with only two candidates on the ballot, cominbed with all the media focus on the election, it was next to impossible for any “election shenaigans” to take place.

This was one time I believe the people really did choose the winner! 

We must have transparency and public counting of the votes, if we really want to take back the only power citizens have to hold politicians accountable.  Many of us are fighting for election reform that brings back hand counts, at the precinct on election night with no relocation of the ballots from the precinct either in the back room or to another location for counting.  No, right there at the precinct in front of citizen and party observsers and post the results.

We can do this.

And that’s the interesting thing, Puma.for.Life because when I listen to the Tea Party people, I don’t hear unconditional Republican love.  Yet, I’ve heard the conservative talk show people insinuate that the movement is automatically theirs.  In fact, I heard both Dan Quale and Michael Steele talk about how the Republicans needed a strategy to “co-op” the movement into the Republican fold.

Somehow, I don’t think that’s going to sit well with people.  “Co-op” isn’t a very attractive word.  It’s right up there with hijack.

“Psychologically healthy” people don’t want the job, it’s a huge responsibility with a very long work day, if done properly. The problem with the last president and this one is that they were lazy about the office work. I understand that Obama strolls over to his overheated Oval Office at about ten am. Bush wasn’t much better. The two presidents seem to spend more time exercising than working. Bill Clinton, on the other hand, started his day at 6 am and was still in the office when his staff staggered home exhausted at midnight. The man was a workhorse. I can forgive a lot of a man who can do that job and love it that much. Clinton thrived on the hard work, Obama and Bush, not so much.

Let’s all remember that Barack Obama is a phoney created, in part, by brilliant idiot on the left have of the video Larry posted.  Remember the 2002 anti-war speech that was actually recorded in 2007 at a sound studio, merged with old footage and had the words 2002 Rally superimposed over an image of Obama talking in the park.  That particular anti-war rally was held downtown Chicago in front of the Federal building and Obama was not invited.  His name was not even mentioned by the papers in the reports covering the rally.  They can claim they are going to remake his focus or his image all they want.  That’s what they did in the beginning and they believe we will just keep falling for it.  Next thing you know they will tell us he is a middle aged white woman who went to community college and we will just eat it up.

I’m a puma for life too–waiting for Hillary.

David Axelrod did say one thing that was partly true; it is Robert Gibbs fault as much as anyone else’s in the administration.  Robert Gibbs has been an a class arrogant piece of nothing since day one – he totally helped in making the voters angry.

David Brooks’ analysis was spot-on.

This is because no “normal” well – adjusted person would put themselves through the cr** that is required of modern day pols. Not one.

I’m pushing healthcare also, right over the cliff and the morons can go chasing after it.

felzarte,

Hillary would be president today if the primary election was not “fixed” by the party leaders.  Talk about election fraud and breaking election rules and DNC rules to make certain he was the nominee.

Hillary was the people’s choice, but the party leaders controlled the elections process.  That’s why candidates who fight for the people will not be elected.

If the American people don’t come to terms with the reality about our elections and stop fooling themselves that they reflect the will of the people, we will lose the best and the brightest every time and be stuck with a puppet who works for the power elite.

That and the deals he made before he got in with Andy Stern and George Soros.  He is probably scared to death what happens to him when his political godfathers don’t have their needs met!

Obama and co. will press on with Health Care.  We’ll just have to see if all the Dems remain loyal and willing to commit political suicide!

I agree with everything you said.  That is why I hope that Reid, Schumer, Pelosi and all those who stabbed Hillary in the back will have their comeuppance.  It began in Massachusetts, then on to Nevada, Calif with Boxer.

Maybe he is or maybe he isn’t running for Mayor of Chi-go

Yes, a little humble pie and perhaps a reality check for the Lightbringer.  Maybe it wasn’t all about you, Barack, and was about Bush fatigue and an alternative that was less sexy.

Oh, I feel good today!

Jeezus!  That made me cry.  seriously.  Bill Clinton is my favorite!  I would have liked to see if Hillary could have replaced him as my favorite.  All we have are lost years since the Clintons.  Stagnant, if not backward movement!!!

Hillary may rise again. Especially after last night.   I have been reading Game Change and I am finding it quite interesting that Obama at least had the good sense to really respect and admire her.  Maybe enough to have her swoop in and save his sorry ass.

Honestly, I never thought Obama had those qualities.

oops, Gibbs, but then again Gobbs works, too! 

Yes Ferd, but sadly funny.

Breathtaking!! Raising the Debt limit by another $1.9 Trillion.

We need to get rid of Scumer(sic) in NY, too.

LOL–Well Diana, I guess you don’t feel that love pouring out of the Oval Office and engulfing all of us regardless of race, creed, or political affiliation–”He’s got the whole world in his hands,” and his hair is turning gray fretting about how to “make things better for all of us,” and the worry wrinkles are beginning to crease his noble brow, and . . .

Nope.  I don’t feel the love either.  I thought maybe I was just being insensitive.

You’d like to see Thee One do some house cleaning?  But that’s what Hillary is for–to take care of the nasty chores and the heavy lifting.  Thank God for the people of Haiti that she’s on the job.

Don’t know if I’m doing this properly or not.
Flashback: How Did Bill Clinton Respond to Voter Revolt of 1994?

felizarte,

We will be fortunate if the kind of election that just occurred in MA will happen in Nevada and CA.  But my big concern is for these other races, the dems will use the secret vote counting process to do some vote manipulation to ensure a dem victory.

You must not make the mistake in believing that elections are not subject to major manipulation and that it can be done without detection.  If this is possible, you can’t depend on your vote being counted as cast. 

Even if we are lucky enough to take out Reid and Pelosi, WE STILL MUST CHANGE THE PRESENT ELECTIONS PROCESS!

I think the American public has a strong feeling that nobody is at the wheel. That the Captain has abandoned ship and left the crew to drown.

The sheer idiocy of continuing to promote a bill that that the majority of the people are against is lunacy. Heck Bill Clinton lost on healthcare. But he was smart enough to know when to back off.

The phone call I received today said Congress was standing up against Big Pharma.  Funny, there was no mention of negotiated drug prices. Or taking out the cuts to Medicare and Tricare (screw those vets young and old send ‘em off to wars/die). They claim all preconditions will be covered and even the unemployed will get healthcare. You mean the unemployed you actually count? Or will you keep them on unemployment rolls indefintely if they stop looking for/can’t find jobs?

Really? So why then do I see health insurance companies running ads about coverage and “the low cost” of buying healthcare plans?

Why did Barney Franks suddenly announce that there are not enough votes in Congress to pass this bill? CYA anyone?

So all will be free and no one, including taxpayers, will have to pay for any of this? That bridge in Brooklyn is looking mighty fine about now.

The loyalty of senior Democrats goes just so far. Anthony Weiner – an ardent supporter of Obamacare - is the best barometer and he gets it and wants to stay a step back from the abyss.

I think Congress has seen that Obama is an empty suit with no credibility with voters. So why should they risk their political future by supporting him on a high risk issue? 

Or, they think they need 1.5 trillion and think… gee 1.9 doesn’t sound like much more than 1.5 does… slush fund. fuel up the jets. party time.

Did you see who was applauding in the background when President Clinton stated that true health reform was needed so people didn’t lose their insurance when they got sick and that he wanted to work with ALL of them, step by step to get this done.  It was Newt.  I am no fan of Newt’s personal behavior, but he certainly had a smile on his face (not a smirk) during this part of the speech.  May I also say that Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D was passed by the Republicans.  It is not perfect, but it certainly is a step in the right direction.  Before anyone shouts out that I am a right-winger, I absolutely am NOT!

Obama will go down as the worst president (aka Usurper) ever next to Jimmy (CRA) Carter.  Stagflation, here we comme.

Chester Arthur is proud.

Ready to lead on day 366!!

I don’t think Obama is lazy, not at all. He gave over the stimulus bill and health care “reform” to Pelosi and Reid simply because he is still voting “present”. Look at his personal approval ratings, and you will see that his abdication of responsibilty was simply a way to focus any fallout of his policies on others. He uses people without shame or remorse, and the brilliant Dems in Congress, blinded by the “power” given to them, fell for it hook, line and sinker. It’s all about him, always has been, always will be.  

Axelhole and Gibbsy are America’s version of Baghdad Bob -

“No, we don’t have any problems!
No, everyone is happy!
This has nothing to do with Healthcare!
This is not a referendum on President Obama – of course not!
The people are mad at the REPUBLICANS for being obstructionists!
Move along, nothing to see here!
No, there are no tea parties ANYWHERE!”

Yes, I believe the prevailing message last week at the Tea Parties was Throw The Bastards Out…and that meant all of them.  Vote the incumbents who have contributed to this mess out of office…from the top down.

Today China announced it’s cutting back on lending by 22%, so if the administration can’t borrow the 1.9Trillion I guess the 55% of us who still pay federal taxes can just pony up. This isn’t just about “control”, although that’s a big part of it, it’s primarily about wealth redistribution. It’s all these guys think about: reducing the middle class to rubble & then they act shocked when the push back comes. This so called Health Care Reform bill stinks! Taking benefits from Senior’s Medicare & veteran’s TriCare to ante up to Big Insurance doesn’t get it. Maybe that’s what Soros calls “mixed economy.” They want to create a giant welfare state, that’s why they keep importing as much international poverty as they can. The poor, the ones they claim they want to help, are already on Medicaid. This is a farce. If our country were a corporation or an individual it would have already filed for bankruptcy. Maybe it’s time the government seriously consider bankruptcy. Frankly I find it preferable to some Weimar Republicanesque scheme that entails leveraging all so called private property.

Rahm is in an “undisclosed location” ? How predictable.

Oh the good ship Minnow, what wave swamped your bow?

Agreed.  But he surely did.

Isn’t it sad that anyone has to “fear” saying a good word about something the Republicans have done. There are as many well-meaning decent Republicans in this country as there are well-meaning decent Democrats. Unfortunately most of them don’t get elected to public office.

Hating on each other give the evil rat bastards in both parties the chance to play us for fools. That’s why I’m a devout Independent. I don’t trust either party, I vote for people based on what they’ve done not what they say and I don’t like nor will I vote for “entrenched” pols that think the office they hold is “their” seat.

If we scare the buzzards enough they might actually start to listen to us. Although I suspect nothing would make this White House do more than pay lip service to listening. Because even when they say they are listening, they just don’t hear.

Babs,

You’re absolutely right!  However, I also believe obama handed off legislation to the Congress because, unlike Hillary who does her homework and learned how things worked in Congres, he’s never really learned how to write legislation because he was always so busy running the next higher office. 

Hillary warned us that obama was dillusional:

I agree, these WH guys are more Marie Antoinettish with each passing day.

As are some of our local pols. Arlen Specter was on the radio last night. He was debating Michelle Bachman. Actually in his mind it was a debate. What listeners across the Philly metro heard was an offensive, abusive, condescending diatribe against a female legislator. Talk about clueless. Talk about tone-deaf. The man clearly showed signs of senility, but still that’s no excuse for his behavior. He tried the same shit with Laura Ingraham.

Specter is truly living up to his name. At the moment he is a ghost of his former powerful senatorial self, haunting the halls of the Senate building until we Pennsylvanians GET HIM THE HELL OUTTA HERE!

(in the immortal words of Ben Nelson’s pizza shop constituent)

I’m at work now, If I can get a sound file of that interview, I will post a link. Everyone needs to hear the sound of desperation, colored by overt misogyny.

Breaking News….

Howard Dean is not supporting Obama any longer……. Finally the netnuts King is sober.

These guys should be called “Clue and Less”. 

I have not heard anything remotely plus about Perry but longhorn politics escapes me since the great Ann Richards left the scene.  I thought Perry was a right wing nut case?

I vote for “lazy”, he had seven years in the Illinois legislature to learn how to write legislation and he never bothered to do it. Instead he claimed credit for other peoples’ work. That says “lazy” to me.

if i hear obama blame bush for the mess he “inherited” one more time im going to puke.  he didnt “inherit’ it.  he wanted it.  he fought for it. he lied and cheated to get it.  now that he has it, he doesnt know what to do with it.  much as i hated bush, at least he didnt blame clinton for his failures. its been his for a year now and he has only himself to blame.  if he cant stand the heat, he needs to step down and let someone else take over who knows what they’re doing. this empty suit sure doesnt. he was in it for one reason only, his legacy.  well he’s got it. “THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER”

Though the above video was approriate for this thread.  Not meant to relate to anyone’s specific post.

It oughta be a law then whenever billions or trillions are written about the zeros must be used. 100,000,000,000 vs. 100 billion and 100,000,000,000,000 instead of 100 trillion.  That way people can get some idea of how much this really is. 

Now ..now Larry… You know as well as I do that to be delusional you first have to have a vision…. This WH’s vision is more like a nightmare which most shrinks will tell you are delusional in the first place…..

Where are they going to drill? The surveyed amounts in the Gulf and ANWR represent 4 or 5 years supply for the U.S.. That is if we could tap it all tomorrow. They estimate that it would take around 25 years to extract it all in ANWR.
