Cynapse, I wonder if Obama is moving this way in response to Pelosi’s thinly veiled power grab?

I don’t think his attempts to say all the protests are organized by groups etc will help him. What about all those protests in front of AIG homes, the buses of protestors brought in by Acorn. His people are calling all those that went to the townhalls etc on their own dime and anger liars. Great way to get votes. November 2010 will be interesting. If he loses the House and the Senate, will he try for a second term, or be kicked out of his first one.

VDH remains optimistic that Obamamania, much like our Trudeaumania 4 decades ago, will wither and die simply because utopianism can’t possibly work in a complex society of 300 million people.

He and his elitist cronies are attempting to take over the American economy by nationalizing 16% of GDP through ObamaCare and also through his cap and trade “theft”. These policies are so extreme they thankfully are recognized as such and will be non starters.

For example, cap-and-trade would really destroy the economy. The USA and the West, is dependant upon low cost energy, whereas China and India rely on low cost labour but are using more and more energy. Any emission tax levy weakens America. Moreover, any effort we make would be swallowed up in a week or two of India and Chinese emissions.

Charles Krauthammer says “China is starting a coal fired plant every week on average, and that is just throwing all that CO2 into the atmosphere, of which our reductions would be negligible. It would simply end up as a great transfer of wealth out of the West into the third world on a scale never seen. But it’s a religion. So they are impervious to empirical evidence.”

Obama’s greatest weakness is his refusal to budge on the healthcare issue. If he were really a bridge-builder, he’d be in conference with the Medical industry and the GOP -all of whom have at least admitted that their “Rolex Healthcare” system needs fixing- to hammer out a more market-friendly and American-friendly solution. Instead, he’s strong-armed his foes and blindly taken up the cause for whoever is actually planning this change (which is obviously not him, based on failed attempts to answer basic questions).
