If you were expecting something new from President Obama’s speech last night, disappointment abounds. After over six months of hawking nationalized health care, a day of televised interviews broadcast from the White House on a major broadcast network, prime time news conferences, over two dozen speeches around the country and now an address to a joint session of Congress, is it possible that the President actually thinks the American people don’t understand that Democrats want the government to run our health care system?
The President said last night he supports the “government option” — he called it a means to an end — and that’s something the American people fully understand, but not in the way he intended.

(Thanks, but no thanks, Mr Prez. Tell you what, though, in the spirit of bi-partisanship, you drink it first and we’ll see how that goes, ok?)

Fascinating! More Proof of NObama's Radicalism!
Ausonius (Diary) Thursday, September 10th at 10:22AM EST (link)The proof that NObama is indeed a monomanic and arrogant ideologue grows almost every day.
With members of his own party defecting after listening to their constituents, who apparently are not racist neo-Nazis representing a tiny minority, he remains The Prophet blinded with The Vision of a Promised Land which the American Hebrews, wandering in the desert with dust in their eyes, cannot see.
They just need to trust in him, and all will be well!
God save us from such an atheistic prophet!

bk (Diary) Thursday, September 10th at 10:32AM EST (link)about what a slap in the face it was to the many thousands of people who attended town halls that the President never acknowledged them, other than to say that everything that came from the other side was a lie.
I don’t expect his speech would have won any of them over.
