The President has sung this song now for months, and we can see the impact it had on the tea bags. The speech should have been......
My fellow Americans. The Tea Party through ignorance and deliberate intent to collapse our government resulted in this nations credit rating lowered for the first time. They hurt this nations economy, and I won't stand for it, and neither should the Republicans who know damn well how much fear and anxiety they can create. It's time to defeat these strutting pricks, I urge Americans of both parties to raise money, back candidates, and run these bastards out, and Democrats should help republicans do it in the primaries.
He should then kick the podium over and yell, And fuck Rick Perry too.
I concur. Sis told me last night that educators in Texas hate Perry.

ReplyDeleteI prefer your speech to the stale air of the President's speech.
I agree with all three of you that that would be very satisfying. Still ...
ReplyDeleteWhat would he accomplish with that, other than to draw the "battle lines" even more indelibly? I'm starting to believe he IS playing some kind of cosmic chess game here. Not just to get reelected (that too, of course) but to carve out a "permanent majority" of people who will turn out to vote for Democrats, even if they have to hold their noses while doing so. Because he is craftily exposing the other side as being totally disastrous for America.
Or anyway, I fucking HOPE so.
Watching Obama tap dance through the minefield is getting old... trying his best not to come off as "the angry black man" so as not to alienate the middle, sucks.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it would be an eye opener if he spoke from the heart, said what we all know to be true, and called these assholes out for wrecking the economy for political gain.
My faith in Obama has been dropping steadily for months. My own fault for being naive enough to trust a politician.
