The opt out plan proposed by Democrats will cause turmoil inside States with Republican governorships, argues Andrew Sullivan. The premise is that states where Republicans govern will be opted out and the constituents will want to know why they cant get for “free” what democrat states are getting.

While it may be right to oppose this health care takeover altogether, once it passes (and it eventually will), state leaders will be faced with angry citizens who will feel cheated for not getting benefits that others are getting, especially knowing that they are paying for it anyway.

The crux of Sullivan’s point is that Republican leaders will be screwed and that’s precisely why the Opt Out plan is being pushed by the Obama Adminstration.

It’s hard to argue otherwise.

It’s becoming a daily sound bite 10 months into the Obama Presidency “We’re cleaning up Bush’s mess”. To be sure, this adminstration and it’s followers have issued a war on Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and Drudge – and less harsh criticism towards 3rd world maniacs and terrorists.

Today Rahm Emanuel said that the war in Afghanistan is adrift because of Bush, and this adminstration is “asking the questions that have never been asked on the civilian side, the political side, the military side and the strategic side.” No examples of were given.

Whenever a poltical person or team is in trouble and have no solution, phrases like “we are asking the tough questions”, are thrown out there as if somehow that in itself is an answer, and never are examples of these extraordinarily brilliant questions ever given.
(The only “tough” questions out there are being supplied by Fox News it seems.)

It is correct that President Obama repeatedly embraced the Afghanistan war as necessary. While it may be a very legitimate debate to question his indecisiveness and which strategy is best moving forward, it is beyond debate that the President has put Health Care first and foremost on his list of priorities since inauguration day. (Health care never polls at the top of the American people’s concerns. Joblessness and the economy are first, then the two wars.)

Lastly, it’s distasteful and beneath the office of the President to blame everything on the predecessor, it’s always been somewhat of an unspoken tradition – a sign of respect and manners. This President cannot help himself from blaming his predecessor on each and every issue he has yet to come close to fixing. “Cleaning up the Bush mess” isnt an answer Mr President, and is not an excuse for your poor performance with the economy, the war on terror, transparency, bipartisanship, or foreign policy.

While WorldNetDaily and Drudge focus their headlines on Obama’s team admitting they try to manipulate the media nd what reporter’s cover (let’s face it, all politicians try to spin the media), the bigger elephant in the room is Communication Director Dunnn’s proclamation of admiration for one of the most brutal leaders in world history - Chinese communist Mao Tse-tung.

Hat tip to Fox once again for reporting stories that the alphabet news channels refuse to cover:

Hanging political protestors and gays (along with anyone committing a behavior crime) in Iran continues, and many here will not understand that an Iran with nuclear capabilities leaves the US with no options to pressure the regime on mass-scale human rights abuses. The same is true of North Korea.

It’s sad that we have a leftist adminstration who adamantly believes giving thugs space at the table of the civilized world is going to work. It never has, it never will. Thugs prey on the weak and do not honor contracts as has been witnessed for decades – why Obama inists on his current path can only be viewed as an intentional weakening of the USA.

It’s worth noting his near-absence of flowery speeches on human rights abuses, as his apology tour of the US continues…..

Yahoo’s own news page speaks volumes on the Obama’s lack of insight into the war on terror:
(Or one must honestly admit he does know and is purposefully giving the Taliban terrorists power in goverment)

Bungler in Chief or Traitor ?  You decide.

It never seems to dawn on political leaders or their “advisors”, that we dont want spin.  We want results, especially when it comes to our military and winning wars.

Snippet from the Telegraph:
“An adviser to the administration said: People aren’t sure whether McChrystal is being naïve or an upstart. To my mind he doesn’t seem ready for this Washington hard-ball and is just speaking his mind too plainly.”

This is the mindset a little more than half our population voted for  and at least 40% will blindly support no matter bad things become.
