In 2008 the American public, angry at the fake Conservatism and Neo-Wilsonian Foreign policy of Bush, voted in Barack Hussein Obama. He had coattails and brought in a heavily Leftist Congress. Conservatism was pronounced dead since it was thought Bush destroyed the brand. However, Obama and his Tranzi minions overestimated their mandate. They thought Americans had embraced their Totalitarian agenda of control. As they proceeded to apologize for America’s action to our enemies, give Constitutional rights to Islamo-Imperialists, give $700 Billion in borrowed money to special interest, attempt to impose a Eugenics based healthcare system, do the bidding of Wall Street at the expense of Main Street and turn on our allies, the American people have had enough. They did not vote for this radical change and are now having buyer’s remorse.
(Jan. 20) – It doesn’t take a rocket scientist or a pollster to know that Americans are not happy with Washington. The honeymoon that greeted President Obama a year ago today has degenerated into hypercriticism, deep anxiety and downright anger.
That may sound more like a high-profile Hollywood divorce than a political analysis, yet in some ways that’s exactly what Americans are going through right now. Make no mistake: Americans were giddy about getting rid of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, but they are clearly suffering from buyer’s remorse a year later.
The seeds of Obama’s current political dilemma were sown the day of his inauguration. The expectations heaped on his shoulders were clearly impossible to sustain, and there was little effort by his administration to dampen the “hope” that had propelled him from first-term senator to first African-American president. And when those expectations weren’t met, someone had to be held accountable.
Read the rest.
Frank Luntz is correct in his analysis. Americans don’t want Progressivism and it’s concept of elitist control over society. They didn’t expect Obama would turn out to be the Neo-Maoist Radical that he is. In response, Americans are rediscovering, as Speranza wrote in this great post, real authentic Libertarian- Conservatism. A philosophy based on individual liberty, economic freedoms, small government and traditional Judeo-Christian culture. Americans want a foreign policy based on defending our interest and allies, not building Democracy in Muslim countries or subverting our foreign policy to Transnationalist institutions. In other words, Americans are returning to our roots based on Liberty and National self interest.
What has occurred is that in 2006/2008 Americans have rejected Neo-Wilsonian Compassionate Conservatism. Now Americans in 2010 and hopefully 2012 will reject Transnationalist Totalitarian Progressivism. Both these ideologies belong in the annals of history and America will be better off without them.
