Scary..

But hay... I am a guy who has ...

Michale.....

Speaking of grounds for impeachment...
http://www.chris11962.com/blog/files/fd671a397fcd35a9423d7933ca729544-41.html

My guess is that the Republicans, for the good of the country, would investigate the possibilities of "Pre-Impeachment"...

:D

Michale.....

"President Pelosi"... :D

Thanks for the chill. How many days in the Oval Office before articles of impeachment would be drawn up? I say roughly nine. Possibly ten, but that's pushing it.

The 2 scariest words in the human language.

"President Pelosi"... :D

Meanwhile, have we all seen this rather explosive little item?

http://www.chris11962.com/blog/files/b26468d00ac1e36f5f4b6544e4000712-16.html

I am outraged that I am not outraged by that..

So much for the claim that Media isn't in the bag for Obama.

Michale.....

Same with Pelosi. I think she's just starting to "get" that her speakership is in jeopardy and couldn't be more shocked and amazed.

For people who are supposed to be so intellectual, they're not terribly bright, from where I'm sitting. They're kinda clueless, in fact.

His mind is skewed in such a manner that he thinks that everyone simply HAS to understand and accept what he is doing.

He doesn't realize that his thinking is fundamentally flawed.

Therefore, Obama simply assumes that everyone else MUST be wrong and will eventually "get it"...

Obama is in for a rude awakening...

Michale.....

Ya know...

Unemployment benefits wouldn't be such a big deal if the Obama Administration had concentrated on JOBS instead of CrapCare....

Once again, we see the shortsightedness of the administration coming home to roost..

Michale.....

I don't think the Republicans are gonna get the Senate, though. I just don't feel it in my bones. I think they're gonna take the House (please, with the grace of God; just so I don't have to listen to Nancy Pelosi anymore). The Senate? That's a tough row to hoe.

:D

Ya'all just have to realize that, if the Democrats DO lose both the House and the Senate, I will become COMPLETELY insufferable, right?? :D

At least, MORE insufferable than I already am... :D

Michale.....

I REALLY hate to toot my own horn....

But......

Beeep Beeeep Beeeep :D

Michale.....

Few do, with all the Breitbart bashing that goes on.
'D

"By far, the most alarming numbers this poll presents for President Barack Obama are the reelection figures; against a generic Republican candidate, he loses by 5 points, 37-42. In general, when an incumbent's reelect numbers fall below 50 percent, it's a sign of trouble to come — and Obama's inability to break even 40 percent may be the most telling indicator to come out of these data." http://tinyurl.com/25pz8tb

I stand corrected.. :D

Michale.....

I'll say it for the 18th-millionth time: Two people in this administration have got to go, immediately if not sooner: Gibbs and Holder.

Actually, it was an Associated Foreign Press (AFP) article. Poor Breibart is so misunderstood. LOL. His news articles are all from various newspapers and newswires (similar to Drudge's setup). It's a really good site for getting a day's worth of news really quickly.

Considering this is the guy who let the media decide whether or not the Arizona law was "bad", I have my doubts...

Remember?? Holder criticized the law for weeks and then admitted he hadn't read it. He was just going by media reports.

Michale.....

LOL. Yet it continues to be referred to as a "victory." Every time I hear that, I wonder what the spin is gonna be after it constitutionally crashes and burns in the U.S. Supreme Court.

Speaking of which, did you hear? The mandate is back to being a tax: "When Congress required most Americans to obtain health insurance or pay a penalty, Democrats denied that they were creating a new tax. But in court, the Obama administration and its allies now defend the requirement as an exercise of the government’s “power to lay and collect taxes.” http://tinyurl.com/3yj5c3n

Meanwhile, are we sure Holder actually went to law school? What does levying a tax have to do with mandating that American citizens purchase a product from the private sector? Miss the point much, Eric?

Of course, I'm still a cockeyed optimist, too ... after all is said and done.

Yea, politically speaking, I was the same about 2 years ago..

Obama cured me of that. :(

By the way, Michale ... the comments attached to that link you provided are quite ill-informed, not surprisingly. That's me trying to be nice.

Yea, it's Breitbart.. About par for the course. :D

CB,

LOL. Biden understands the trouble they're in. He didn't even want to touch HCR, knowing that socializing health care was not gonna fly with the American people. And when it passed — or was rammed through, I should say — experienced inside-the-beltwayers knew they were going to pay a hot political price. And they know payday's a-comin' in November.LOL.

Yea, it's actually quite funny in a sad sort of way..

CrapCare is the Democrat's only real "achievement" to date.

But they can't trumpet it, they can't yell it from they rooftops, they can't even TALK about it and try to explain it, because they know 75% of Americans hate it.

The DP's biggest achievement can't be talked about because Americans hate it.

Howz THAT for being hoisted by their own petard?? :D

Michale.....

Vice President Biden has always been an optimistic sort. But, I think he's largely right about the outcome of the midterm elections.

Of course, I'm still a cockeyed optimist, too ... after all is said and done.

I am certain that Democrats are deluding themselves into thinking everything that is happening in the here and now will fade by Election Day..

With apologies to Liz :D here is a perfect example of what I meant...

Vice President Joe Biden brushed aside suggestions on Sunday that Democrats will suffer big losses in November midterm elections, vowing that Barack Obama's governing party will "shock the heck out of everybody."
Speaking on the ABC News program "This Week," Biden dismissed prevailing wisdom that Democrats, 17 months into Obama's transformative residency in the White House, would suffer a drubbing at the hands of salivating Republicans.

The vice president said he believes the Obama administration will get credit from voters for helping guide the economy out of recession and passing key legislation on health care and financial reform.

Michale.....

Well, it may not be THE point, but it certainly is A point. :D

Look, everyone knows that the American public has the attention span of a (how did CW put it??) mosquito on crack...

I am certain that Democrats are deluding themselves into thinking everything that is happening in the here and now will fade by Election Day..

But what they can't (or more accurately, WON'T) comprehend is that there is NOTHING good coming down the pipe.

About the only thing that can save Democrats this November is First Contact..

And I bet that Obama will screw THAT up as well... :D

Michale.....

I don't think that's the point. I think it's a "damage done" problem the Dems have, which they can't undo. Because the "damage" is the constant power-grabbing that's gone on for the past year and a half: nationalizing this; socializing that; expanding Big Brother's power to the point where they've now awarded themselves the ability to seize financial institutions. Cuba, anyone?

That's what has the majority of Americans so angry. This is why "55% of Likely Voters find 'Socialist' an accurate label of Obama" (and, by extension, the Dems who've instituted said socialistic laws and powerful new government agencies and unelected czars, etc.)

That's not something the Dems are going to be able to "fix" on the campaign trail. No amount of "explaining things a little better" is going to appease Americans who feel like they woke up one morning to discover themselves living under the equivalent of a Fidel Castro regime.

I have been saying that for half a year now. :D Nice ta have official confirmation. :D

"Republicans wrecked the American economy, and Democrats are busy cleaning up the mess they left behind.

Oh come on.. Dems have been in power for nearly 4 years now...

There comes a time when Democrats need to face up to their responsibility in this mess..

Always passing the buck and blaming others is why Democrats are going to be booted out in November.

Ink,

That isn't oil washing up on Alabama's sugar-white beaches. It's the putrefaction of a conservatism that has died of deregulation fever.

And yet it's all but assured that Dems will lose their House majority and their Senate majority is now becoming more and more at risk..

Doesn't sound like conservatism is as on the verge of death as you might think.. :D

CB,

I don't think that's it, Chris. I think congressional Republicans are saying no because their constituents are telling them to say no. Plain and simple.

Which is why the GOP will be swept back into power.. They may govern ham-handedly and make plenty of mistakes but at least they actually LISTEN to the American people.

Let's face the facts, people.. Democrats are going to have their heads handed to them in November.

There is nothing promising on the horizon that will help Democrats and there are plenty of "coming attractions" that are going to show exactly why this batch of Democrats we have in power now are incapable of leading..

Terrorist attack, racial investigations, more and higher unemployment are just a few of the reasons why, in the here and now, Democrats in government are an endangered species...

Michale.....

I hate to break it to you, but Obama's doing all the same things Bush did. Only worse. 'D

I don't think that's it, Chris. I think congressional Republicans are saying no because their constituents are telling them to say no. Plain and simple.

I think the lack of public interest has much to do with it. Only I think the MSM (and Dems, in general) are reading that "lack of interest" wrong. I don't think it's a lack of interest; it feels more, to me, like the quiet before the storm, i.e., folks are all done screaming. Now they're just waiting.

To whom? That is the question and the big, big problem for Dems. It's not like the Indies suddenly left over something or other in the Wall St. Reform legislation, and now the Dems have to go cajole them back. They left a good long time ago. Last February, only 21% of likely voters (roughly the percentage of liberals/progressives in the country, you'll notice) felt that the government was operating with their consent. As of yesterday, it's 23%, with 60% contending that the government does not have the consent of the people.

Then there's this:

75% Are Angry At Government’s Current Policies

Voters are madder than ever at the current policies of the federal government.

Just 19% now say they’re not very or not at all angry at the government’s policies, down eight points from the previous survey and down 11 from September. That 19% includes only eight percent (8%) who say they’re not angry at all and 11% who are not very angry...."

Granted, they're angry at both parties, but having only two to choose from, they're leaning very much to the right. Check out this nightmare:

Trust on Issues
Voters Still Trust GOP More on Most Key Issues
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/mood_of_america/trust_on_issues

Unless "education" suddenly becomes the primary concern of voters over the next four months, I think Dems are gonna get their heads handed to them in a big way.

ROFL! I heard about that!!! The first thing I thought was, one of the Framers must not be too happy. Hahaha.
