Tortured Politics

I’m not a big fan of fringe blowhards on either side but I have to say it would be a “get your popcorn” moment to see a liberal torture Sean Hannity.

   Wow.. Nice job Obama. Coincidence that Obama has Air Force One flying the same route the terrorist did on 9-11. I wasn’t concerned before about Obama, but now I am. Next we will see him laughing it up Middle Eastern leaders. All the while the media says nothing.

   Really?!?! Do you think Obama had anything to do with the incident? I think he has a few more pressing issues than planning out the flight path of Air Force One when he is not aboard.

   Should he not be laughing it up with Middle Eastern leaders? He seemed to be in jovial discussions with King Abdullah this past week.

   Congratulations Obama on your first 100 days. I thought it would take you years to bring socialism to America. You are even a better President than I thought. You brought Socialism to America in under 100 days. Nationalizing Banks, Government takeing over of businesses. Why can’t we have the same rules as Bush and let companies fail and go bankrupt. I guess if he let the auto industry go bankrupt then the UAW might not back him anymore…. When can we vote to change the constitution to the Socialistic way? I guess we don’t have to because the courts are doing it for us like in Iowa.

   BTW – Olbermann is the biggest idiot on television. He should stick to Sports at least he was good at that. He is the liberal Hannity, except nobody watches him. He can’t even beat out Nancy Grace on CNN. Who cares what he thinks or says he is irrelavent. Here is the latest ratings in case you do not believe me.

   I have seen the ratings and it shouldn’t surprise anyone. If you listen to right wing talk radio or to Fox News or simply have an argument with someone on the right you realize one thing, Conservatives are unable to think for themselves. This is why MSNBC doesn’t do so well. This is why there is no left wing radio hosts. Liberal tend to be deep thinkers and don’t like to be spoon fed their opinions. If Obama has a 69% approval rating or that Republicans now make up 21% of the electorate then you begin to understand things. I am still waiting to have a debate with a right winger who has their own opinions and doesn’t spew out the latest blather from some doofus they heard on their drive home.

   Like the whole Socialism spiel. First off, Bush began the bailouts. That isn’t so far back you don’t remember, is it? Secondly, we learned a lot from the Depression caused by President Jackson’s presidency and the Great Depression. You can’t just stand back and wait for it to work itself out. Saving the auto industries has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with manufacturing. The US produces an ever dwindling amount of goods and a nation that doesn’t manufacture sooner or later finds itself with a hollow economy. Obama is forcing some tough love on the car companies. Let’s hope it works out. By the way, I don’t think the Constitution says anything about fiscal policy. Hell, interstate commerce had to be decided by the Supreme Court in Gibbons v Ogden. The banks are not being taken over by the government. The government is simply putting in place a system of regulations that is long overdue. These first steps are just drastic (and temporary) due to the economic crisis at hand. Don’t forget the national banks used to be controlled by the US federal government. That is where we get the First National bank and later the Second National Bank. It was Jackson in the 1820s who broke up the Second Bank into what were called “Pet Banks”. This ultimately led to a nasty depression. I’m just disappointed Obama is having to clean up the mess created by greedy Wall Streeters and bankers (most of them Republican), otherwise we could have the universal medicine this country so desperately needs.

   So how do your votes for Bush feel these days since they wrecked your party and left Conservatives in a position they haven’t seen since the early 1960s.

   I can proudly say the man I have been waiting for my whole life is now in the White House. I can’t wait to see his press conference on Fox News tonight. What?!? They aren’t showing it? Guess they gotta keep up those killer ratings with their hacks…umm I mean viewers. To hell with the news part…That’s ok, Anderson Cooper will have it on. Now he is fair and balanced and he is 360…that’s a circle right? A circle like an “O”..like in Obama…
