Did Obama Let the Progressive Cat Out of the Bag?
by SusanAnne HillerPresident Obama traveled to Boston to help stop the bleeding of Martha Coakley’s campaign from several self-inflicted wounds. There are many critiques of the speech, with some pundits saying Obama was flat, uninteresting, and full of the usual drive-by campaign rhetoric that we have all become able to recite ad nauseum.
As most of us are aware, Obama–without his teleprompter–rambles, is at times incoherent, and goes on and on to answer a yes or no question. He needs his teleprompter. It’s not like an addiction need, it’s more like ‘I really need my teleprompter, because I don’t want to say what you don’t want to hear’ type of issue.
Obama and his compliant press have tried to manufacture him as a centrist; however, that cover has been blown as of today.
What was stated in the Coakley cheerleading campaign speech in Boston, I don’t think Obama meant to say. He’s been off the campaign trail for so long, that he’s not on his game; I think the misstatement by Obama was a huge gaffe. At about 4:28 during the speech, Obama states:
“…you will carry on the best progressive, forward-looking values…”
He alluded to Massachusetts’ as being progressive and may have thought he was in good company, but for those watching the speech who are undecided and awakened to the whole progressive agenda, maybe not so much anymore. I’ve seen many speeches, and I have yet to hear Obama use the word progressive. He is very careful to hide his progressive roots from the Independent voters who are so critical. It is also further confirmation to the rest of the country, for those who continue to doubt, that he is indeed a progressive and clearly not a centrist
Finally, could Obama have underestimated the people in Massachusetts? Could they be reclaiming their history as it appears? After all, Massachusetts did fire the shot that was heard around the world.

The hopeandchange agenda bubble is bursting.
Progressive Values??? They don't have values, all they
have is a lust for power.
nah.. it's that the people are now being properly educated on the meaning of 'progressive'.. shrillary proudly proclaimed herself as 'progressive' during the debates.. it sounds so…….. nice….. forward…… positive. i mean – who would be opposed to 'progress'??? like so much of the left – it fits nicely on a bumper sticker, but falls apart after even a cursory examination.
I hope it didn't take Oba-mao to actually say the word " progressive " for you to realize he is a Socialist times 10.
This was a secret before now?
How many times has he let the cat out of the bag?
Repubs let him put it in the bag in the first place…
DTOM!

The mask that hides the serpent's scaly skin fell of for that one moment during his rambling rhetoric. By the time his term is finished, we'll see the horns and the tail but the beast will have no power after this November.
They've screwed up the image of Liberal, so now they're "Progressives". "Progressive" to what? A classless society?
It's a clever public image word. Progressive or Unprogressive? Which sounds better?
It's a crock of shute. LIBERALS.
.
Progressive = liberal = socialist = marxist = defeated economic theory of the 19th-20th century = force & coercion.
They change their name every generation to hide who they really are so they can pretend to be something new.
.
Ah I didn't see your post, we are in agreement here. Great minds type alike.
When you tell the truth you have to remember anything…!
Maybe the Lefties can get that obnoxiously repulsive woman doing Progressive Insurance commercials to come help ol' Marcia? She can give the people some "good follower" discounts or something.
Oh, and…I don't think they can ficticiously register 8 purple bus loads of people by tomorrow…Mu ha ha ha…!
The POTUS not being able to function without his TOTUS ? Hmmm, imagine that. Let's hope that now independents, and everyone else, for that matter, see through the veneer of lies and discern the so-called "progressives" for what they truly are…. hard core marxist/socialists, who will never stop their devious, underhanded quest for nothing less than the disbandment of our Constitution and the subsequent nationalisation of our entire economy. Hopefully we are witnessing an awakening of our nation, and the realisation of "Morning in America', once again. There is a ray of hope in the darkness…………
Remeber the campaign blather about a new direction, fresh faces and ideas and t he American people yearning for Hope & Change? The bait and switch was on when he surrounded himself with stand-by Clintonites and other steady-eddy democrats, not to mention the Thugocracy of Chicago Politics. It was readily apparent then, however, the general public didn't notice. It wasn't until after the Immaculation of Ascent on January 20, 2009 when he infested the White House with radical Communists and Marxists czars that the public began an amazing awakening to who this Joker really is, (he taught Saul Alinsky concepts at the University level, for chrissakes).
It will be up to the same people who fell for this fraud to make the correction in 2012.
I’m sorry, if someone didn’t know that Barry was a progressive before 11/08, they’re to stupid to vote.
"He alluded to Massachusetts’ as being progressive and may have thought he was in good company, but for those watching the speech who are undecided and awakened to the whole progressive agenda, maybe not so much anymore"
Stick a fork in that turkey. He's done. Another Democrat reject, soon the join Jimmah Carter building substandard housing for Habitat for Humanity.
Just wait for the White House press corp to release a statement saying that he really didn't say that and that the tape must have been altered by the republicans radicals.
I've said it before…
The Obama should have been a network newscaster; he can read Anything, appear to Understand the subject thoroughly, (even if he can't understand the contents of a bottle of water), and can sagely impart that Knowledge to the audience…
So, who's got their hand up his, ahem, "backside" and making his mouth move…?
We seriously need to put the effort into uncovering that vampire or vampires, and insuring they are lovingly and properly staked out over a flame-resistant bare patch of ground before the next sunrise…
Yes, indeed, we need to send the Chicago-style thug politics back into the den of iniquity from whence it came…….
Obama is lying cheating stealing pimp for the communist faith. I feel better. Lets' try that again. Obama is a pimp for the environmentalist whako nut case loser of a hoax! One more day of this moron having a lock on the federal government. Coakley can you drive a truck?
No teleprompter of course he let it out of the bag, this guy can't speak w/out it, so when he is speaking like this he says whats really going on. There is clearly some skeletal structure/machine being put in place remember there are no coincidences only illusions of coincidence. Look at how many politicians are still fll steam ahead while being "threatened" by their constituents that they will be voted out, you think they would stop for a minute yet "no no, I know better than you, I know whats best for you" No one is asking WHY they are doing this.
This election has the potential to be outright chaos, ACORN, SEIU, Black Panthers all the obamachine behind it do not be surprised if Coakley wins. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. Remember what happened when Franken won in MN, big question marks went up about how much influence ACORN played. Remember what "Ed" said that he would cheat and vote multiple times if he could….. I see dead people voting tomorrow.

You keep doing the same things over and over again when it comes to dealing with all of this expecting a different outcome!?!? Thats insane!
Your playing their game… STOP and play your game through http://www.savingtherepublic.com Saving the Republic
Does he ever bother listening to the shi% that comes out of his mouth??
Folks ought start paying attention, and watch everything closely. The last megalomaniac in power that went by the name of Hussein, had a scorched earth mentality. The next three years are going to be ugly, very ugly.
By the time this Hussein is finished, Port au Prince Haiti will be "The Shining City on the Hill" and we will be equal to them with the misery index……….
No-Bama let the progressive cat out of the bag a long time ago, even before he was elected. It is just recently that many see him for what he is.
I just realized – everything this guy touches turns to shit.
Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Harare, Zimbabwe, Detroit, Camden, Newark, Harlem, Compton, East St. Louis, Oakland: Not a white Republican within miles, and the future of the USSA.
I agree!
progressive agenda = Commie agenda
It's far worse than that. He WAS on teleprompter. If you look carefully you can see them, especially at 5:10 after he finishes and is standing with Coakley as one of them is retracting down into it's base.
“…you will carry on the best progressive, forward-looking values…”
Values can not come from forward looking, but must come from tradition of what has worked for society in the past.
Maxine Waters did it too.
Hiding your true agenda is the same as lying. And we all know how hard it is to keep up with a lie.
That's why video after video keep coming out of Obama saying one thing while campaigning, and another thing as president.
"A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader." – Samuel Adams to James Warren, February 12, 1779
Have the good people of Massachusetts lost their virtue and are they ready to surrender?
The Progressives just don't get it.
They are trying to slip/cram through every piece of junk progressive legislation that they tried to pass in past but were denied by The People. Every progressive Democrat and Republican involved in this will be purged from our system.
The United States will NOT be ruled by progressives, illegal aliens, democratic socialists, unions, and "community activists" (there is a lot of overlap among those groups).
These people defy the law so, if the government won't enforce the law, and law enforcement continues to abrogate their duties and abet the criminality brought by these groups, it is up to the people to push aside these progressive slackers and enforce the law themselves. Don't get in our way.
Progressives don't get it. In November 2010 and 2012, there are other things they won't get – votes.
Well folks, you asked for it, you got it, and it damn sure ain't a Toyota.
He keeps referring to "the past eight years", and keeps "Blaming Bush". If that is the only friggen thing these Progressive Peckerwoods have in their collective tool kit, they better give it up now. This Militant, Messianic, Mau Mau, Moocha, Mullato ought to move to Port au Prince, and commence his Great Society.
And while on the topic of Bush, Bush needs to call the Dahli Bama, and recuse himself from "being placed back into service". George Bush is too good of a man, to have Obama use him as a tool. Clinton was the first black president, he and barry need to rebuild Haiti. Obama contradicts himself: he blames Bush,then calls on Bush to help him. Bush needs to tell him to stick his Haiti project right up his azz.
[...] From my latest post on Big Government. [...]
He has shown himself to be a pathological liar from day one. Why not just tell the people that he is killing the Health care bill and then do the exact opposite? He obviously has no concern for what the American people want, only his progressive plan to "Fundamentally Transform America" into a communist state. The more he speaks the deeper he digs his own hole.
Me, too.
Comes the dawn….
Glad to see this was noticed and being talked about. I said before Obama's speech that I hoped he would really put his foot in mouth and he didn't let us down.
This was a real "SPREAD THE WEALTH" moment for him.
The Coakley campaign has been a disaster for her and the democrats (progressives) from the start and now Barry jumped in with all four feet. It's a good day to be a conservative.
People were so caught up in the Bush bashing that they didnt notice that Obama was indeed a progressive and frankly, they had no idea what it meant–until now.
Agreed (but be careful not to call someone "too stupid" with a "to".
Gotta hand it to Big Government, I love the photo of Borat at the top of the thread. What is he doing, is that his angry James Earl Jones acting impression?
Hopefully Brown will make the joker a lame duck before 2012…..
Nope, and neither do many other people…Thank God!
You made me about pee myself!
Let's just hope the GOP can get an infusion of like-minded talent that the Tea partiers seem to want. I'm so done with politics as usual!!!
Until Obama explains why he went back on his C-span promise about a more open government, then he should not carry any weight with the American people.
Forget that little D, or, R, in frontt of their names, lets hold all politicians accountable.
Stop the growth of government and vote Brown into the peoples seat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
socialist labor democrat is the correct term
It's the sound of His own voice that he seems to be so impressed with.
BTW, you must be so proud of your son/daughter who is bravely serving this country……..because I know that I am. Please give him/her my thanks and gratitude…..Peace to You and Yours!!
Sunlight is Kryptonite to the beast.
He always likes what he hears.
There is a campaign add he cut several days ago also using that same phrase. Shocking but obviously true, they are no longer hiding their agenda. Obviously liberal has never been the correct terminology b/c to be liberal means accepting, generous. With these dems its "their way or the highway!!!"
Some of us knew who he was long before the election, it's the young indoctrinated [ by Gore & others] that got this commie elected. Now people are beginning to wake up!!! The progressive agenda will be defeated!!! But be careful there are progressives in both parties!!!! Make sure you know who you vote for!!!
I do not care for Progressives. They are arrogant, nasty, petty and self centered. To me they are like spoiled children who haven't yet learned how the world works, but are convinced they are smarter than everyone else. They are unpleasant rather useless people.
StanH, when using to and too, if you can replace the word also in your sentence then you use too. I hate grammar and I know I butcher it all the time.
please no dangerous items in that woman's hands…quick alert the driving public!!!
As soon as Obama went back on his promice to participate in public financing, everyone could see that he has no problem lying to people. Damn the media for giving us this piece of crap.
Progressives always have to tell you they are "forward looking" because when you really look into their policies they are actually pay homage to the past. Regressive is more like it.
Socialism is a failed experiment as is Communism. Progressivism = Both.
Yes, Lorben is correct. Too, to, and two are Homophones that are often misused.
'Too' is a synonym for also, or in addition.
'To' is commonly used as a prepostition, and is used as a direction, or for a recipient. It can also be used as an adverb.
Amen. Progressives are ruthless. They will pretend to be conservative to get a foot in the Republican door. How do you think they have gotten into so many places like Academia, Gov't, Entertainment? They lie and then influence others.
agree…..it will burst sooner than later….when all the Democrats realize he is not a Democrat. Obama is part of the stealth Progressive party, and he is joined by most DemoRats ( also Progressives) in the House and Senate. Pelossolini, Reid, Dodd, Rangel, Frank, Waters, Fienstein, Boxer, et al………….they need to atleast be honest and admit they are all part of the Progressive Party and get elected that way on the ticket. If we are all now considered teabaggers — then they must now admit to all being Progressives!!!!!
The "Joe The Plumber" moment in Ohio was all anyone – anyone above ground – needed to know about where we were headed.
It seems not only did Joe survive he thrived. The exact opposite of what they wanted. In fact it seems everything "they" try is having the opposite affect.
Bada bing.
Brilliant observation.
Garbage In, Garbage Out!!
you forgot megalomaniacs, egomaniacal, obnoxious, condescending, control freaks……..that want to get 51% of the voters to become totally dependant on the government for subsidies, food stamps, healthcare, disability, welfare, sect 8 housing…..etc etc etc etc etc …..then they think they can stay in power forever. KING Obamao.
No. He just reads what's in front of him.
The smartest man in the world is too effing dense to grasp that people aren't buying this "It's all BUSH'S fault" crap anymore. A year later and we're still hearing it… he'll be saying after he's removed from office in 2012…. Bush will be blamed for the absolute FAIL of the Bamster administration.
" words just words"
Don't forget the other parenthesis(!)
What does "progressive" and the "change" he speaks of mean?
In 1954 the House of Representatives Investigations of Tax Free Foundations revealed what now has become "public policy". Tax Free Foundations are exempt from taxes that citizens must pay "so that they may use thier grant making powers to contribute to altering (CHANGEing) life in the U. S. so that it may be merged with the Soviet Union." That is precisely what has been happening.
When a liberal speaks of "progress", that is the goal he is seeking. Incidently, …."the citizen of the U.S.S.R. is entitled to FREE MEDICAL SERVICE". That what Obamacare is all about.
Obama and his minions are full fleged communists and need to be given a permanent change of station to Sing-Sing or Fort Leavenworth for treason against our country. Karl Marx is not the Father of this nation, George Washington is, whether Obama likes it or not. This country was not founded by or for Marxists. This is not thier country.
CL
I agree with your assessment. The Bus-Driver-In-Chief has made a huge left turn in his first year, with more Czars in the White House, his payback to the special interests Pork-u-lis Bill, the Health Care Bill that has exemptions for several different States and all of his union cronies, and his world wide apology tour which as most people have noticed, not made us any safer, but in fact more vulnerable. It appears Martha Coakley will be the latest with tire tracks courtesy of BO. House and Senate Dems should take note because many of them will be be sporting those same tracks this fall.
Hello!!!
Just think America elected Obama too! Nothing he said before he became elected had changed after he became our Marxist Dictator!!! The people who voted for him got what they wanted, a true fundamental change in our government!!!
Please explain momatolya. I want to learn what I did not learn in my brilliant education during the sixities and seventies! <sarc>
I'm a Constitutionalist – I'll call myself a Teabagger when Barney Frank calls himself a cock smoking ass packer!
No doubt about it…he needs TOTUS!
I watched some of Obama's remarks and I could have sworn I did see a teleprompter. Which makes his comments even worse. He is so terribly out of touch with the electorate. He keeps saying things like "the health care plan that the American people want." The health care plan that few want, because the people now know it has nothing to do with health care. It's about controlling yet another facet of our lives so he can bring about the "new world order" his patron, George Soros, envisions. Can't have that folks, unless you flush the economy down the drain, and have life-and-death say so over the voters. Let's pray that we don't have voter fraud in this election by ACORN, the Massachusetts Democratic machine, and/or the SEIU (better known now as the Purple People Beaters).
I could hardly say "blame the media". When I first say Obama speaking at the Convention, I thought he was impressive, but when a new politician shows up, you have to check out his record before voting for him. I voted for Bush both times, but thought Obama might be an old-time Democrat. The more I learned, the less I liked about him. I'm a factory worker with only a High School Diploma. If I could figure it out, anyone could.
Peter Lewis is Progressive Insurance.
It's Soros. No doubt.
Randy12 only used one in his post; I believe they have to come in pairs. But, like you, my education may be outdated. Certainly today's "journalists" often seem to be unconcerned with some of the finer points of punctuation and grammar, which often makes reading news articles very frustrating. Or perhaps editors just don't edit anymore. At any rate, I was lightheartedly continuing the banter begun by Randy.
Progressive Values- Oxymoron, eh? As well as- Progressive Morals, Progressive Ethics, Progressive Principles, etc., etc. Nice post, Cardon
……… Hanzo
Me thinks a "thumpin' is in the works…….
John Adams would be sympathetic to the charity some are trying to show with their support of this particular version of socialized medicine now up on the block, but he would most definitely disapprove of the way it is being muscled through Congress and would be horrified at the King Georges amongst us who believe they can tax us without representing us as we believe they should to fund the damn thing.
His stock rose substantially in my book as I read his biography by David McCollough and learned just how poorly he fit into the salons of Paris. If he were alive today, he would excoriate the bumblers in DC trying to bankrupt the country.
The agenda could be seen, or disclosed by Media . . . but Media looked away.
The teleprompter is Obama's verbal firewall.
I didn't even notice. Lol! Thanks Momatolya! Its to easy to make a mistake especially when we are writing something we are passionate about. ;^)
Thanks Hanzo, I typed the first thing that came to my mind
when I saw his statement…To be honest with you, your's
is much better as you got it all down 100% right-on..
Don't forget them trying to claim to be the "third way".
If voting were a fair process open only to honest and informed citizens, the outcome would be obvious. We will however have a vote that includes substantial numbers of illegal aliens, the woefully ignorant, dead people and felons – the government of MA has been run for years by the minions of the Democrat party – ACORN, SEIU, as if the usual "party hacks" aren't corrupt enough. My guess is that it would take a 2/3 majority "real vote" to overwhelm the corruption, but even that may not suffice. As Stalin said, it matters little who votes, but it matters a lot who counts the votes. Let's hope for a miracle.
1) he never hid his progressive roots. Only the propaganda media sold him as something else and the college education morons weren't able to think beyond the organism they were having voting for a black man.
2) I didn't vote for McCain, I think a very large number of Repubs didn't either. Truth is today, knowing what I know about Obama, if the same election were run I still would not vote for McCain. If the country is going to fail, it's just the matter of speed it will happen. A little slower with Demo-Repubs McCains and Romeny's … well … I'm not voting for a slow death. Let's get it over with.
Even then, it ain't so good. Seriously listen to the pap he spews and it's just gussied up stupidity.
But, then again, he isn't Biden, so . . . there's that.
the sinner,
Patrick
oops forgot to add …
3) It doesn't matter what he said. If it's not reported, it didn't happen. Period. Has everyone forgotten the climate change debacle of a few weeks ago? Maybe this audience hasn't but everyone else did. Why? because the propaganda media refused to report it beyond what they had to. Nothing changes until the media changes. This media is a voluntary, activist, government propaganda machine.
Exacty! Without being told what to say, he is not aware of what he says. I'm surprised he babbles in English…
You's is an excellent post regardless, my friend. Fight the Good Fight !!!

GO GO GO GO GO GO GO SCOTT!
THEIR LIES JUST AIN'T WORKING FOR THE CORRUPT MESSIAH ANY MORE.
I wish there some way to eradicate the left's hijacking of the word "progressive". i think that the majority of voters today have no idea what "progressive" means in political terms. Instead they react as if it is the same word as "positive","forward-thinking" etc.
Can we not explode this word? or think of another more powerful one for we who are against the progressive movement can use? i think it's extremely important to do so.
Do you think that perhaps he would babble on in Arabic? Or perhaps the native language of Kenya? Just sayin'

Let's be real and stop using the code word progressive and call it what it is: communist!
Excellent post, Mjolnir, however, my vote for "hand up his, ahem, 'backside' " would be, at least on a local level, one Rahm Emanuel. Ever notice how he frequently seems to glare at bho while on the sidelines as bho gives a "speech"(pre-fabricated diatribe)? Perhaps rahmmy is trying to help bho out by sending tele-kinetic messages, or perhaps it's subliminal programming, so bho spews forth the proper lib/statist drone. I know, long winded, as usual, can't help it, these guys are too much fun, if it weren't for the fact that they are ruining our country

That cat was out of the bag for people with living braincells a year + before his pittiful election.

When the hippies in the Whitehouse envisioned themselves in power, they never considered how easy it would be for we the people to look into and behind their nefarious deeds. It is a lot harder to fool people when you are in the White House then when you were in poor, desolute Chicago. Intelligent people – independent and conservative – use a lot more discretion when voting for a person than just blindly accepting a person because his skin is (light) black and he can switch off/on the ebonics when he wants. The person must also have character. Hide the weed, barry, the feds are coming.
Why hasn't ObieWon done a flyover of Port-a-Prince yet on AF1? No golf courses?
That's true, BHO is very much a mental midget and he can only be as sentient as the TOTUS will allow him to be

I stand corrected.
I thought I was just being uncharitable. I saw that picture and figured he was thinking " What is wrong with you people I gotta come up here and campaign for Martha? I'm too important to waste my time on you!" And then he proceede to give the audience a Progressive Clinic. Nasty little man he is.
Wait a moment, Jacey… Just across the mountain range in Santo Domingo is a GREAT golf resort….
Casa de Campo. Cant be but a three minute flight for Air Force One….
Soros, Sunstein, Stern, Saul Alynski – these are the ones we know about.
careful- he loves it when you talk dirty…
Susan Hiller and a lot of pundits are blaming Coakley's hopeful defeat to her campaign booboos, but I don't think that is the case.
Sweet Martha is losing because the good folks in Mass. know that she will vote for Obamacare and that Brown specifically stated that he would vote against it.
Independents are not easily swayed away from the Democrat candidate just because she made a few gaffes (i.e., "there are no more…").
In Obama's speech in Boston yesterday, how many times did he mention medical health care reform.
Everyone thought GW had a hard time expressing himself, POTUS without TOTUS = a rambling dictator in chief. Change you can believe in to make your life miserable!!
Progressives like Obama at some point in the last few decades realized that they would have to hide themselves in order to promote their agenda. They thus developed a series of Trojan horse strategies whereby major changes would be undertaken via seemingly moderate – or even conservative – vehicles.
It wasn't supposed to go like this for the president. He was supposed to be smart enough to continue hiding his liberalism even while pushing his FDR Redux agenda. While that strategy still has a chance of succeeding, it will be hampered to the extent that it is exposed in the mainstream media. So far, it has only become evident to a small minority of people who read conservative literature (though, of course, those who suspect all Democrats to be closet socialists never needed to have the agenda exposed).
There's a more troubling question lurking in the background, however: What if the U.S. has actually shifted to a center-left nation, perhaps even far to the left? Is it a foregone conclusion that this proposition is false?
If she can drive a truck, is that wooden bridge still available?
My two comments; ATTENTION ACORN and SEIU members: when filling out dead people's voter cards out in Massachusettes, avoid the name Mary Jo Kopechne. Secondly: I am waiting for Oba-mao to do an Executive Order stating that Democrats vote on Tuesday and Independents/Republicans vote on Wednesday. Then to care it on for all future elections.
God help us if Americans (or "independents") are so stupid they can't see what is clearly standing before then without "it" saying the word "progressive". I think it's those who blindly call themselves "Democrat" or "Liberal" he is hiding from. Those who accept the superficial phony liberal front put on by the media and Hollywood. He wants them to think he is "one of them". Slowly (and hopefully not to late) actions are speaking louder than Obama's demagogic rhetoric and lies. America is slowly waking to the gravity of the mistake they made. I just hope we are able to recover from the damage already done.
Before Obama is allowed to sign on the dotted line, he should have to show proof of identity, a Birth Certificate would be nice, if he has one!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, I forgot the "Progressives" don't believe in the old laws, just those they have written and/or altered!!!! I know I'm crazy for wondering, that's why I'm labeled a truther, ie; Someone seeking truth, unlike the Judges who have had the opportunity to do the same!!!!!!!
"Progressive" is "regressive" as it is by nature "oppressive". They have "values". They value the primitive ways of tribal chief and obedient masses. Guess who they think the chief should be…
Oh, we can only hope.
About 10 PM tomorrow night, the lawn jockey in the White House will have an idea just how pizzed we are.
It can and will happen if the Republican's GET OUT AND VOTE. Not just the Republicans, but lots of Independents and Democrats are voting for SCOTT BROWN! Happy Tuesday to all of America! People from America love it! People from Amerika…just suck it up!
I will be interesting to see who Obama and the MSM are going to blame when Illinois voter's put a Republican in Barry's old seat?
That one is going to be fun on an epic scale…………….
The Liberal leadership of the Democratic Party is seeking to impose a radical Leftist agenda. They have contempt for traditional values and our celebrating the end of them.

I agree, as I was reading this I was left wondering who was suddenly enlightened? We all knew this a very long time ago.
You really want to know what "progressives" are/were? Check out the eugenics movement of the late 19th – early 20th century and there direct influence on Hitler and the holocaust. Woodrow Wilson wanting to create a one-world government. Prohibition?
Now they seek to brainwash children in school so they are unable to think clearly. Think "diversity" and political correctness. They are seeking to eliminate all ideas that don't conform to their ideological perspective. STILL trying for one-world government. And the new prohibition? Tobacco, trans-fats, sweetened drinks or anything else "they" deem to be bad for you (or which you might enjoy) and thus bad for "society". This is just one more manifestation of the collectivist evil of "we're all in this together". If that's true, then it follows that SOMEONE or a COMMITTEE of SOMEONES has to decide, since it was the INDIVIDUALS poor choices that caused the "problem" in the first place.
We are all just dumb! You should be grateful that these people are here to tell us what to believe and how to live our lives. Besides happy, free and prosperous, how can we live without them?
I think MM referred to it as "the full reverse Midas Touch".
<sarc>Get outta here…Really???</sarc> LOL
Little did we all know that an insurance company has been de-sensitizing us all to the term Progressive all these years…?
I believe what James was speaking to is the reality that the media chose to show OB in the best possible light, and show an enormous amount of negative press regarding McCain, which led to masses of people to be swayed. I was hard pressed to find anybody who didn't fall for all the media brainwashing. Check out the record?! I can't understand why anbody finds this so challenging, it takes minimal effort and is worth the time. Too many just park it in front of the MSM night after night and take the information in without question.
There is noting going downtown Detroit, South Central L.A., New Orleans and D.C that isn't going on in Lagos, Nigeria.
All too true
! I have always thought it is stupid to try to "get out the vote" when those who don't really want to vote probably don't have a clue who to vote for and thus just vote for someone who they have been bribed to vote for or for someone who promises them free stuff if elected. If they have nothing to lose and no real love for their country, they don't care if the best person wins. They just want who will give them the most without having to work for it.
I've been watching a lot of movies that were made in the DDR years ago. The characters all have the same mindset as liberals – it has to be good for the Party, and it has to be good for Society. Everyone is equal. The academics were revered. They know what's best.
Liberals are JUST THE SAME right here and right now, in this country. They are multiplying through school indoctrination, etc. They are definitely not multiplying through procreation.
Well, let's say, most of the trolls are like that…My
husband and I disagree about Sarah Palin, I think
she carries too much baggage, and has been
beaten up too much, but he feels differently.
We have our hands full, that's for sure!!..I just
hope people stay active, and don't let their guard
down….Thanks for the reply..
When a friend or new acquaintance self-identifies as "progressive", I always ask them to define "progress".
Whatever they say, I reply with "Really? To me, "progress" means small government, economic and personal liberty, voter photo ID, and gun rights."
Obama is a great conversational hypnotist, that's all. Whenever he says "the status quo" he is culling your mind toward Progressivism. This is how he was able to coral so many Independents. There is a false dichotomy at play with Progressives: either us, or the status quo. So, simply emphasize the negative, and the unardent (for lack of a better word) people will invariably gravitate toward your rhetoric.
So, KNOW what side you are on, and you will not be fooled.
"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries." Winston Churchill
Said it in his MLK speech on Sunday: " But we've put in place tougher rules on lobbying and ethics and transparency — tougher rules than any administration in history. It's not enough, but it's progress. Progress is possible. Don't give up on voting. Don't give up on advocacy. Don't give up on activism. There are too many needs to be met, too much work to be done." http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/remark...
Its time to start filling that hole back in…………..after we throw in all of the "progressive forward looking" idiots.
The Scott Heard 'Round The World. That's my favorite so far
Any others? And remember, keep it clean, kiddies
That is true, although when they speak of values, it's in the typical doublespeak they use so well on a daily basis.A value, as I'm sure you know,is a desireable principle or ideal, and their "values" are neither principled or desireable as ideals
….. Hanzo
It must have been tuff for Obama not to yell out "It's Bush's fault!"
Correctly refer to them as REGRESSIVES!
Hey Martha……………….what's it feel like to know that obammy sank your ship.
Him showing up today for a "shout out" to your constituents only emboldened Scott Browns' camp. ITS OVER………………….you sister, will lose in a landslide.
Word. Don't forget to thank your token black president for handing you arse to Scott Brown……Its all over but the crying. That'll start tomorrow over at the progressive camp when the first ballots start getting counted.
Dead Ted should get practicing rolling-over in his grave…………………he'll be doing back flips by tomorrow night.
Right on the money, my friend. It's marketing and catch phrases that matter most now. "The discussion is over." "Hope and Change." "Have a Coke and a smile."
Obama mentioned his "Progressive friends" at the joint session of Congress on Health Care, to which Pelosi gleamed.
Hey, Progressives. When you close your eyes, we can still see you.
What a crappy endorsement for old Martha from the annoited one! Teleprompter failure gibberish. What really disturbs me is the all the costs to the taxpayers of sending this fool to Massachusetts. Hey everyone. How do you feel about paying for this fiasco too? We pay for his hawking snake oil despite the fact that we have stopped buying it.
Obama is proving himself–or should I say hisseff?–to be the scumbag I knew he was the first time I laid eyes on him. Those associations; that wife!?! This guy a moderate??!!
This was so obviously a case of his radical marxist backers / supporters putting him out front in order to put a 'respectable' face (!!) on their radicalism. Would anyone have voted for Bill Ayers, for Van Jones, or even for Michelle my Belle, for that matter?
He so obviously understood that the soft underbelly of America was its guilt over slavery, and that if he could cloak his Marxism in terms that people thought they understood–"our values" for example–he could take advantage of White Liberal Guilt and fool people into voting for him in order to prove how tolerant and advance they were. As Coulter has described it elsewhere, Obama supporters made the fashion statement of voting for a black guy.
He is the personification of what has been going on in academia and behind the scenes in general. While Reagan was winning the cold war and reviving the American economy, Ayers et al were quietly at work behind the scenes, indoctrinating students about The Decade of Greed, warning them about Nuclear Winter, the ozone hole, CFC's. decrying homelessness and the gap between the rich and poor. They were out agitating on the streets for Acorn. Essentially they were destroying the country from within, all in the name of equality, parity, etc etc.
And they used all of this warm and fuzziness in order to appeal to people's general warmth towards their fellow man. Who likes to see others suffer? Aww, how nice.
Well, now that the responsible people of America are suffering, perhaps they'll wake up to what a scumbag Obama is.
I cannot see or hear him without throwing up in my mouth.
What he meant was "don't give up on voting, vote as many times as you can. Don't give up on advocacy,ACORN is with us at every turn. Don't give up on activism, the SEIU thugs will help all they can". …………. Hanzo
democrat=liberal=progressive=socialist=marxist=communist
Read Coulter's article on Coakley and then look in the mirror and tell your self you are capable of voting for this person.
http://biggovernment.com/2010/01/18/martha-coakle...
What he really meant to say is "the best Marxist values"! Progressive is double speak for Marxism.
Integrity, honor, courage are virtues of true leaders–yet we behold this man‘s and his administration’s insane skullduggery.
The honor of great people and peoples is trodden underfoot along the self-infatuated road of power–without remorse, without regret. Americans, Hawaiians, Illinoisans, Kenyans, Africans, blacks, whites, Hispanics, Asians, Christians, and Muslims have watched this man shame their integrity, cultural history, and historical honor by buying into webs of irreconcilable lies and faulty propositions.
Anyone is a pawn, everything is promised, and ashes will remain.
The man inspires no one and should be removed from office immediately by the few honorable leaders left in Congress.
Just as we thought!! Without his teleprompter he can not talk without giving away his true intentions..
He let the cat out of the bag years with great comments like energy prices will “necessarily skyrocket” with his plan & "Before debating health care, I talked to Andy Stern and SEIU members."
Maybe he's trying honesty for the first time in his life!
It won't be long before Bush polls higher than Obama and people say we were better under him than Bamster. You didn't have to agree with everything he did, but you at least could say you knew where he stood on things. With this jackass, people were completely snowed, and they're waking up quickly to that fact.
I think they're all like they bowl in Special Olympics. We can say that, right? That's OK since The One used it, right?
Don't forget. Who owns Progressive Insurance?
George Soros
Oh I agree, he goes on and on about nothing, quite boring.
Anyone who is clued into lib-talk should have recognized this fool long before he put into practice what he preached, regardless of teleprompter assistance to steer clear of flash point phrases.
He's actually a former member of the Communist Party.
" Progressives" murdered tens of millions of people in the 20th century. Are we to repeat history because of their lust for control?
Isn't it though?
I don't do bumper stickers or I would have one too. Seems to me a lot of folks think the answer to that question is Sarah Palin. I like her, but I am not convinced. Besides, we need to populate the congress with real people first so any Chief Executive will have a real chance.
Not sure which troll you meant, I have encountered a few, as well as some miscreants.
Have you noticed that the Democrats are letting their true colors show – the MSNBC guy who said he would cheat to win the election, the politician who said they would have to count the votes slowly, Obama admitting he pushes the progressive agenda? This is going to make it hard from center Democrats to deny the direction of the party and what is really going on. Will they be smart enough and have enough love for their country to stop voting for these people?
A "progressive" society will not be classless. It will only eliminate the middle class so that there is only the royal rich and the downtrodden poor. To me that is a regressive society as it drives us back to the feudal dark ages.
Just as they attempt to redefine many important words in the English language. "Patriot" now means someone who rallies in liberal protest groups against a republican government official. And every cause is made more worthy as long as the word "justice" is added to it such as "social justice" and "reproductive justice" yet these causes have no link to justice whatsoever. Even in the climate change shout down they label skeptics as climate change "deniers" so as to link them to the term "holocaust deniers" like Muckmud Ackmudanutjob.
