You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you
can’t fool the American public as easily as you can the pro-Obama MSM
media.
A
new Wall Street Journal/NBC poll “finds that by a 55% to 35% margin,
voters are more likely to say Sen. Obama would be the riskier choice. By
2-to-1, voters chose Sen. McCain when asked which candidate would be a better
commander in chief and who has better knowledge and experience to handle being
president.”
It sure warms the cockles of my cold, dead right-wing
heart to finally see evidence that the public ain’t as stupid as Obama
thinks they are.
Even the MSM media seems to be catching on just a wee bit.
The
Washington Post editorializes that Obama was wrong on Iraq and refuses to admit it. “Obama's
account of his strategic vision remains eccentric.”
Well, duh! That qualifies as the understatement of the
century. Ronald Reagan said his “strategic vision” for the Cold War
was simple: “We win, they lose.” And that exactly what he did.
Obama’s “eccentric” vision is “cut and run” and
even as our troops win in Iraq,
he refuses to cut and run from his cut and run strategy. Eccentric is way
understating that position. He’s flip-flopped on everything else, but
refuses to accept victory.
USA Today asks the obvious editorial question: “Why can't
Obama admit the obvious? The surge worked,” and includes this gem: “Even
knowing the outcome, he told
CBS News Tuesday, he
still wouldn't have supported the idea... Why then can't Obama bring himself to
acknowledge the surge worked better than he and other skeptics, including this
page, thought it would? What does that stubbornness say about the kind of
president he'd be?”
USA Today won’t say the obvious, but I will. It says
he will be an unmitigated disaster as a President, Jimmy Carter II, bringing
back the bad ol’ days of a hollow military, staglation with double-digit
interest rates and inflation, lines at the gas pumps and Islamic terrorism on
the rampage.
Karl
Rove lists Obama’s changes: “Sen. Obama has
shifted recently on public financing, free trade, Nafta, welfare reform, the
D.C. gun ban, whether the Iranian Quds Force is a terrorist group, immunity for
telecom companies participating in the Terrorist Surveillance Program, the
status of Jerusalem,
flag lapel pins, and disavowing Rev. Jeremiah Wright. And not only does he
refuse to explain these flip-flops, he acts as if they never occurred.”
In Obamaland, nothing is real unless the Messiah says it’s
real. And if the emperor is wearing no clothes, nobody’s allowed to say
he’s nekkid.
