I agree with everything he just said, there. In 2008, most Americans were not knowingly voting for Socialism. People did not believe that an actual Socialist was running for President of the United States, and the MSM did little to nothing to dissuade them from their hopey/changey misconceptions.
People are slowly waking up…but is it too late? Congress is on the verge of passing a health care bill that is being designed to be impossible to repeal. Those of us who had resigned ourselves to an ObamaCare fait accompli, this year, could at least, at one time, hang our hopes on the possibility that some of the worst provisions or even the entire bill could be repealed if Republicans took over Congress in 2010. We were depending on them to run on that notion, in fact. Harry Reid, drunk with power, has created a rule binding future sessions of Congress to a supermajority to overrule the rationing board, and the Independent Medical Advisory Board.
The rumor is that Obama is putting off health care bill until February so he can focus on jobs. The real reason is because he can read the writing on the wall, which is that the House is not going for the Senate version, and he’s gonna have a protracted battle on his hands, which he doesn’t want leading up to his big State of the Union Speech. And we all know how important speeches are to Obama. He can’t trumpet that B+ rating he gave himself with all that fighting going on.
This is a case where Obama’s dithering is welcome, and to be encouraged. Remember, 2010 is an election year, and the health care bill is wildly unpopular. Dither away, Obama.

“People did not believe that an actual Socialist was running for President of the United States…”
Yet one was. Many Americans had access to the necessary facts to realize it, too. Those persons chose not to believe that Barack Hussein Obama, supposed Muslim apostate, Marxist, and friend to terrorists and America-bashers, is what the evidence says he is and has always been.
Many other Americans accepted what the Legacy Media told them about “Obama the Lightworker,” who sent thrills up journalists’ legs. As implausible as it all was, it seemed more palatable than the notion that an ACORNite “community organizer,” an outspoken critic of the Constitution who’d never held a productive job in his life and believes in wealth redistribution through government action, was about to take the reins of the greatest country on Earth.
Then there were the rest of us: too few to halt Juggernaut’s carriage, especially given the busy little elves smoothing its path with massive vote fraud and voter intimidation.
The pattern of American electoral politics to come has been set by the Obamunist ascendancy. It can only be changed by radical action, which will demand great effort and no small degree of risk. Is it likely that those efforts will be undertaken? Is it likely that those risks will be accepted?
No, I don’t think so, either.

By the time Ovomit gives his hate of the union speach, the libtards in the house and senate will not clap once for any of the crap he’s pushed for. They will be in fear of their home constituents seeing them clap in support. Throughout the speach, one will be able to hear crickets in the background.

in 2008 people voted for nothing, hoping it would be whatever it was they wished for.
In 2008 we proved that the voting public consisted of children who once saw the Bozo show, and decided they could juggle machete’s.
Idiots.
