I feel sorry for the left. If they hated Bush HALF as much as I hate Obama – they must have really suffered.

I don’t like to use the word ‘hate’ but it’s an appropriate word to describe what I feel. I was thinking that I should pray about it, but doesn’t God hate evil?

Oh wait, I’m not God. I’ll go pray now…

Bandow --

No one is surprised Republicans are favored for an off year election when Democrats control Congress and the White House.

Off year elections almost always favor the party out of power.

What Republicans don't want to hear -- as usual -- is history and basic political science.

So...tell us.

Liberal Reader| 3.17.10 @ 9:49PM

Java

I did tell you. Historically -- for these past several decades -- the minority party makes tremendous gains in off year elections.

Americans like to check majorities. We check conservatives when they're in power and we check liberals when they're in power.

If Republicans don't make significant gains in Congress next November it will be a very big surprise to anyone who knows anything about electoral politics in this country.

Not by 10 points, not by a longshot. That's a lot.

Nice try, though, Drew, er, I mean Liberal Reader, but you can't put lipstick on that pig!
Sooooeeeeee!

What did you think of Bret Baier's interview with Obama today? Things got a little testy there; Baier roughed him up pretty good, I thought. Obama's not used to that.

I liked the House minority leaders comments this morning on C-SPAN1.. He said that Obama has been telling Reps that he has summoned to the White House that this is all about his presidency and his chances for reelection... the Minority Leader said... "Mr. President this is NOT about you it is about the American People and what they want, and they don;'t want this particular health care bill."... I will vote every damn democrat in florida out that I can and will stump for the betty boop is she ran against the one's that can't. If Congress won't listen to the people then the people will make them listen by voting them out.

Liberal Reader, you really don't get it do you? most of the country as in an overwhelming majority dislike having democratic reps completely ignore the constituents that elected them. So what will you liberals do when you are paying higher taxes and getting less? You really have not answered the question... you just repeated yourself, like a broken record..

Indeed. Remember when LR predicted the recent MA election? Surprise to many, but not to him. Nothing remarkable to see here. Pay no attnention to even MSM polls going negative on Osama. Pay no attention to Dems in blue districts declining to run again because they know they are hanging themsleves with Healthcare rope (though they remain sure of Osama's promise of taxpayer funded 'virgins' in the next life) Staggering intellect. Truly staggering. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for lowering yourself to spend time here enlightening everyone. Really, the definition of altruism. You are a Saint, or whatever the secular equivalent is...a Gore, maybe?

Opine
Truly what the Dems nor the RHINOs nor the Leftist nor the TRIumerate running the Oval Office want to even contemplate, let alone hear, is an aroused USA Electorate.
WE the PEOPLE, founded on OUR Bill of Rights, grounded in Faith, Hope, Charity, are PI.... and we mean to re exert OUR G.. given rights to set this USA on a decent, honorable, non corruptible course.
WE WILL PREVAIL
Semper Fi

To Liberal reader: " Have nice day".

To others : What is important to me is to ask why the Socialist democrat Party leadership are so tone deaf--or are they ?

This is what scares me: First is election fraud including all kings of huliganism,ballot stuffing and you name it on on the SD Party's part.
Second, will BHO " deem" that there is only one party and one leader ? Strong imagination--not so fast. But even so, I believe many more voters than the SD Party want to know do follow more and more what is going on in Washington and as it continues this drama behind closed door, imaginations run wild. About what ? Deal making,bones breaking what ever it takes. The people are paying attention and have pretty good idea of what is happening. That is what is going on.

Not To Know:

I've tried to understand the Democrats and their willingness
to place Americans in slavery using debt. One day the truth
will show that the Progressive Left used convertible value
to secure the vote of Democrats, e.g., bribes.

Missy| 3.18.10 @ 10:19PM

I think it's more sinister than that--democrats are using the Cloward-Piven strategy to take over our Republic.

Google Cloward-Piven.

Glenn Beck aired an ill-gotten audio of a progressives mtg where Sen Charles Schumer talks about "looking at the Bill of Rights" for an overhaul! Unbelievable: some of these people are truly traitors to their people and country!
