The Administration Flinches

It would seem the administration has flinched. There are the tell-tale signs of blood on the water. Obama has cried "Uncle!"

It's too soon to claim victory in this. Obama is just the president. He let slip his dogs Reid and Pelosi on healthcare months ago, rather than craft his own health reform legislation. Now it's time to see what these two dogs will do.

Obama's not stupid. Neither are his handlers. They all see his plummeting poll numbers and they are all rightly concerned. And they all can see that the so-called "public option" is at the heart of his fall from grace. He hears what the public is saying...
"Reform healthcare? Fine. Reform away... but don't take over healthcare like you've taken over the auto industry and the banks. Don't ruin our healthcare like you've ruined social security."

I haven't been more proud of the American people than I am now. I thought they were all dead, uncaring, and beaten to their core. I have been proven wrong, and I'm not ashamed to say it. The Left has been impotent in their spin, and unable to answer their critics with anything resembling an honest argument. They have resorted to calling us 'angry mobs,' 'brownshirts,' and 'nazis.' They have lied about the protests and the protesters. And they have lost.

Now for the bad news.

It doesn't end here. Diligence is our holding pattern, because this is one plane than can never land... one ship that can never dock. The Left has lost this battle, but they will never give up trying. And remember, we still have to wait to see what Reid and Pelosi will do. The Senate may well try to push their version through by simple majority. It would be a colossal mistake if they did, but there it is.

Nancy Pelosi, grand debutante of the Socialist Ball and constitutional dilettante, will continue to utter inanities and outright falsehoods, and she will still be supported by a Left that has lost all semblance of objectivity-- to say nothing of sensibility. They will believe and repeat her lies and inanities, and we who have won this round will smile knowingly... take a pause... and begin again to make her look every bit as much the fool as she makes herself to be each time she opens her mouth.

Obama. He may not be toast, but he's certainly dark around the edges [no pun intended, you racists!]. But one thing's for certain, he's not going to live this one down ANYTIME soon. He took his party for a merry ride on a train that couldn't ride. Now they're all walking. And the funny this is, many of these pedestrians would have us believe they're walking by design.

This is where Obama's arrogance has brought the Democrat party.

And you know what? I'm fine with that.

  1. Give us time, Eric. One victory at a time. We got them to shut down their stupid little snitch line. We got them to back off on the public option.

    Little victories. Savor them. Eventually they will add up.

    Hopefully it will end with Obama's impeachment and conviction.

Your First Amendment right to free speech is a privilege and comes with a measure of responsibility. You have the right to exercise that responsibility here but we reserve the right to inform you when you've used that right irresponsibly.

We are benevolent dictators in this regard. Enjoy.
