Obama and his Progressive Machine cohorts have tried to radically change America. This is the reason behind the fall in his poll numbers. The worse is they seem to try to shove this Progressive agenda all at once to prevent analysis.This is method used in Totalitarian regimes and Americans are turned off by it.
President Barack Obama’s answer to composer Stephen Sondheim’s question would be “yes”, were he the sort who readily admits error — which he most definitely is not.
We are six months into the Obama reign, and he did have a good thing going until very recently. He pushed through what voters thought was a stimulus bill. He held numerous press conferences at which an adoring media allowed him to display his rhetorical skills — no mumbling George W Bush, he. He toured the world, to the applause of adoring masses from London to Paris to Cairo. He tackled perceived global warming by urging Congress to pass a cap-and-trade bill aimed at showing he could lead the way to a cooler, greener world. He bailed out General Motors and Chrysler, rewarding the United Auto Workers for delivering key states to him in last year’s election.
Then he did what Sondheim warned of — he “wanted too much” — and Congress went into recess without passing the president’s so-called reform of the nation’s healthcare industry, a $1 trillion (£600 billion) restructuring that would turn effective control of one-sixth of the American economy over to government bureaucrats. Too many congressmen learnt that almost 90% of Americans are satisfied with their healthcare, that a majority of voters think the deficit is already the nation’s biggest worry, and that 42% of Americans think the Obama plan is a bad idea, and only 36% that it is a good idea (22% have no opinion).
Read the rest.
This is what Progressives do, they overwhelm their opponents. However Americans are realizing what is going on and are starting to resists. However be careful, when Totalitarian movements feel threatened, it gets ugly.
