Mr. Obama has made up his mind. The voters did not reject him or his policies on Tuesday. They just rejected the economy. Never mind that it is his policies that have made things worse.
We’ve heard this now since last Wednesday. Mr. Obama has taken it as his mantra that “it’s the economy stupid” and also that people are too stupid to understand what awesome things he has been doing for them.
More significantly, Mr. Obama has taken to repeating that he was just responding to a crisis. He thinks there was no “overreach” just a “perception” of an overreach.
It was, therefore, the message not the policy.
Let’s be clear here — this is the administration with the internal mantra of “never let a crisis go to waste.”
Mr. Obama may believe he was just responding to a crisis, but much of what he did was not part of the crisis. Bailing out and expanding unions was not part of the crisis. Propping up Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac was not part of the crisis — heck, they caused the crisis.
Attacking American job creators with language harsher than that used to attack Al Qaeda, Iran, and North Korea was not part of the crisis.
And, most obviously, taking over the American health care system was not part of the crisis. That was part of not letting the crisis go to waste.
For two years now, the Democrats have told us that Barack Obama is the best communicator since God first said “Let there be light.”
Today, they and Mr. Obama himself, would have you believe was a communications problem, not a policy repudiation.
According to Tuesday’s exit polls, a majority of Americans blame Wall Street Bankers for causing the economic collapse. It looks like they got Barack Obama’s message. The problem for Barack Obama is that those people voted overwhelmingly for the Republicans.

billwhit1357 Monday, November 8th at 6:05AM EDT (link)Obama has his head so far up his rectum he can’t see a peep of light! He is the Most Worthless Excuse of a Leader and Human that I have ever seen! The Good Change we need is to be rid of this Idiot! I would not trust Obama or his wife with any of my eight grandkids, not for five minutes! He has no Honor or Integrity and is the biggest Narcissist I have ever had the misfortune to know! 2012 can’t get here too soon! It will be a glorious day for America when this Clown is History!

tex41lb Monday, November 8th at 3:19PM EDT (link)Being an adovocate of free trade is becoming a difficult position to hold.
For decades we have watched our manufacturing capabilites go overseas, assuming trade will come here in kind. The result so far is an increasing dependence on our technical and financial services for balance in trade.
Now we are sending our technical and service jobs elsewhere.

“We thought that if we shaped a bill that wasn’t that different from bills that had previously been introduced by Republicans, including a Republican Governor in Massachusetts who’s now running for president, we would be able to find some common ground there. And we just couldn’t,” Obama said.
________
The problem with the statement is during the months leading up to the vote, we said the MA plan doesn’t work. it stinks. Its a drain on resources. We couldn’t have made it any plainer. Don’t blame the voters when you don’t listen to what we’re saying.
We eschew bad ideas no matter who comes up with them.

bus2dc Monday, November 8th at 9:34AM EDT (link)…was one word: “NO” .
Below is the C-Span video link. Watch a reporter ask (38:48 – 39:27) if perhaps Obama thought now HIS policies were moving the country “in Reverse”? Obama addresses another question and then attempts to minimize his “car in the ditch” theory (42:00) — and the reporter specifically asks Obama again if HIS direction might be the wrong one for America —- and Obama responds with a firm “NO”.
What else did we need to hear? DID the reporter even hear it? Where’s the coverage? Because “NO” was the only word that mattered. His policies are not going anywhere until we can remove the pen from his hand and him from the White House.

I give this man no benefit of the doubt. None.
IronDioPriest (Diary) Monday, November 8th at 9:47AM EDT (link)He knows full well that voters rejected his policies. He knows full well that “poor messaging” is not to blame. He knows full well that voters understand the “message” loud and clear, and that they properly interpret the message as he and his ilk giving the middle finger to the American people. He knows full well that his use of the economic crisis runs 180º contrary to solving the crisis in the minds of the American people.
He doesn’t care what people want. He is focused. He has his eye on the ball. The electorate threw him an inconvenient “shellackin”, but his ideology is firmly entrenched.
It’s going to take more than an election to derail this man. He has malevolent intentions against the constitution and the American people, and he has the Presidency. This election notwithstanding, he’s getting the results he desires. Tearing down this country and replacing it with a Socialist state is the fulfillment of his life’s ambition and purpose.

For Obama and company, the arrogance has only begun
fpete13527 (Diary) Monday, November 8th at 10:02AM EDT (link)For Obama it is clear that it is the American people that are the problem and that he made practically no mistakes.
However, he does see that he needs to make some enhancements. Even though he planned the economic chaos, and knew the Democratic Party would lose seats, he is excited about the way forward and he has lots of plans. He will tell the Democratic Congress that they will need to make more sacrifices and that they should prepare for another reduction to one quarter their size by 2012. For the Democratic Party, this will be the price to pay to follow “the chosen one.” The Democratic Party will gladly follow and obey willingly.
The Democratic Party will happily lose more seats because they are 100% aligned with Obama. The current Democrats in Congress are almost all members of the Socialist Party anyway, so what’s the big deal. Obama owns most of the media. He can continue to get them to lie for him in the name of their true goal – Socialism on the road to Communism and Sharia Law. It is one big happy Dem/Comm. family.
Barry sees that he made some other mistakes too. He did not have enough Communist Czars and programs in place in his cabinet. He now sees that he needs to get more felons, Communists, and Sharia enhancers back in the cabinet. He also sees that he needs a whole lot more judicial activists undermining the Constitution and he needs more additions to the Black Panther voter intimidation fund-raising committee. He will also enhance programs to insure that illegals vote, fictitious people vote, Unions are paid through tax dollars to vote, and military overseas will NOT vote.
Barry is also clear that he didn’t do enough speeches on television. He know now that he needs to crank up the teleprompters and speeches. Instead of ten speeches per day, he will now speak twenty five times a day. He sees now that he just wasn’t talking enough and that was the problem.
I can just hear the first new speech now:
———
Four score and seven Alinskys ago, Karl Marx created a beautiful dream. We will pursue that dream here in the U.S. against the evil that America has become. We will further destroy the value of the dollar while increasing the destruction of all private business and industry. Meanwhile I will continue to monetize the debt and inject billions of dollars of bailout money to the Unions so they can give it right back to me in donations via extorted votes.
We will increase taxes on anyone earning over $250K. This is where all the jobs are being created from – and that must stop. Tax dollars must go to fund ACORN, Fannie, Freddie, and Tides Foundation. We will also continue to insure that absolutely NO support goes to private business. The true economy builders for the society are Union bosses (especially SEIU, NEA, AFL-CIO) and Trial Lawyer Lobbies. They will continue to get the majority of all tax money.
————-
Michelle is getting the teleprompters ready now. When they get back from vacation number fifty, it will be fifty five hours of televisions conferences on Karl Marx then off on more vacations. The next three vacations will be spent with good friends – Hugo Chavez, Mahmud Ahmadinejad, and Kim Jung Il. Michelle will be getting the dancing shoes on as we speak. All those counties have new dances.

I'm sorry for being a dope
4deucemortar Monday, November 8th at 1:48PM EDT (link)Obama reponse to a 60-Minutes question:
“I couldn’t get the kind of cooperation from Republicans that I had hoped for,” he said. “And that was costly, partly because it created the kind of partisanship and bickering that really turn people off.”
And as proof of this great Obama wisdom we only have to look at the Election results of last week to se that US voters rejected both parties in their anger over “partisanship and bickering”.
Wait a minute? You mean voters did NOT reject BOTH parties – and they actually voted in favor of GOP candidates in the Senate, House, governor races AND state legislatures in almost historic proportions?
I’m sorry for being one of the few idiots left who still believes what Obama says….

Calling on Americans “to punish the enemy” when the enemy is other Americans, putting Republicans “in the back seat”, passing major legislation “so we can then know what’s in it”, referring to those to choose to offer dissent as “racists and bigots”, supporting a mosque near ground zero, leaving our borders unprotected, refusing foreign help during the oil spill, saying “the war is lost” while we still have American troops dying on foreign soil, letting the pending tax cuts expire, tax carbon emissions even though global warming (man-made) is a joke, take away secret ballots for union elections, stifle dissenting media by legislation designed to shut down talk-radio and spending $787 billion dollars of money we don’t have on an economic stimulus that has not worked !
OK, where in the hell in this list is a single “good idea”? There are none! Liberals govern with identity politics, censorship, spin, smoke and mirrors, distortions and corruption! They arrogantly ignore the will of the majority and remain dismissive even after they got their butts kicked! And unless they are stopped, they will BANKRUPT this great nation both econpmically and morally!

This outlook has been popular on both extremes of the ideological spectrum, even if they disagree on what the group wants to do. Left-wingers accuse the Bilderberg group of conspiring to impose capitalist domination,[21] while some right-wing groups such as the John Birch Society have accused the group of conspiring to impose a world government and planned economy.Obama’s India trip really an Emergency Bilderberger Meeting ?THE COMMADER //////// .Is Barack Obama pushing forward dangerous policies that are bringing the United States closer to a socialist dictatorship.

3. Is it really true that the recent global financial collapse was engineered by the Bilderberg Group. Why was their 2010 annual meeting held in Greece?
4. Bilderberger influence,president George W. Bush says he was “blindsided” by the financial crisis that shadowed his final months in office, but adds that the Democratic-controlled Congress shares some of the blame. -
Now that the agenda for global government and a centralized world economic system is public and out in the open, the importance of the Bilderberg Group’s annual conference rests on grooming political candidates. The lion’s share of Bilderberg’s 2010 agenda has already been announced by its members weeks before – it will revolve around a potential military strike on Iran as well as the future collapse of the euro.
