Obama’s astroturf organization: Organizing for America is now encountering issues in pushing the Totalitarian Progressive agenda. They are encountering resistance from the Right and internal disagreements. This is a good development as for the last 6 years the progressives have been the most organized and effective political movement.
Reporting from Washington — To win the White House, Barack Obama and his political team built a vast grass-roots network of supporters and volunteers that came to be considered one of the most valuable assets in American politics. Their ambition after the election was to reshape the network, with its trained organizers and 13 million e-mail addresses, into a ground-level force to push the new president’s policy goals.
But now, entering a crucial congressional recess month in which Obama’s healthcare plan faces stiffened opposition, some members of the network say that the group is still figuring out how to operate. Some also say their work has been slowed by tensions over tactics, disenchantment among some core supporters and an effective GOP resistance.
Read the rest.
I hope that Conservative/Libertarians/Populists keep the pressure up. These fake organizations, like Obama’s Organizing for America, can’t deal with the fact that many Americans don’t support their agenda. Totalitarian movements, when confronted, tend to collapse when they are resisted. The Progressive Machine is encountering their first challenge and they can’t deal with it.
