Before he was elected, Obama said that Republicans were bitter people who cling to guns and religion. But after five years he has succeeded in leveling the playing field, and now sees everyone as bitter.
President Barack Obama warned yesterday at a private home in Miami that Democrats “get clobbered” in midterm elections. “The problem is not that the American people disagree with us on the issues. The challenge is, is that our politics in Washington have become so toxic that people just lose faith and finally they just say, you know what, I’m not interested, I’m not going to bother, I’m not going to vote,” Obama told donors.
A great observation. I see some of it happening here in the “People’s Republic”.
Delusion: “The problem is not that the American people disagree with us.”
Look, over there, a banana tree on the lawn of that big white house.
And look over there!! A Democratic party sponsored voter registration drive……. Coming soon to a cemetery near you!!!
During the last election, some local wag was putting big “I VOTED!” stickers on the tombstones.
“…Washington have become so toxic that people just lose faith…
Well Ain’t That the truth!

A few of the headlines about DC
October 14, 2013: 47% Think Neither Political Party Represents the American People
November 08, 2013: 56% Think Their Congressman Likely to Have Sold a Vote
January 08, 2014: 8% Think Congress Doing a Good or Excellent Job
And the latest:
March 21, 2014 Congressional Performance
Incumbents, Beware: Just 29% Think You Deserve Reelection to Congress
Sure sounds like a real vote of NO CONFIDENCE – So throw all the blood sucking parasites OUT.
Hmmmm… Four possible answers and 1% say “excellent.”
I would deduce that 4% of the respondents were just picking answers at random.
Leaves the issue of “Consent of the Governed” in an interesting state doesn’t it?
By the time you get to the elections, it’s too late for that. You have to displace them in the primaries.
BINGO!
That is why the Reboob Rinos absolutely hate the tea party.
Huh??? Did Obama say something? I gave up listening to him within 2 years of him winning the first election. Just looking to vote for someone who has a little integrity to back up what he/she says from the podium; whether that be a moderate Republican or a moderate Democrat.
Obama’s entire policy discussion at present revolves around desperate handouts to his Democrat base and likely Democrat supporters. The survey figures that the Democrats are seeing must be mind blowing to cause the desperation exhibited by Obama and his party in tossing out carrots for potential Dem voters.
Yes, moderation. Moderate raise in spending money we borrow, moderate cronyism, moderate graft, moderate erosion of civil rights, moderate increase in illegal immigration, moderate violations of the constitution, moderate expansion of government. Moderation, I say.
How could I forget Candy, the mother of all moderators?
Moderate carbon tax…
“….”we need” Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. “We need Nancy Pelosi as speaker because folks like Nana over there, cleaning houses, may need her help and she’s going to look out for her. We need Harry Reid staying as Democratic Leader in the Senate because there are kids just like Elijah but who aren’t as lucky to have parents with the resources that Alonzo and Tracy have.”….”
ROTFLMAO! Nana can’t clean houses because US regs did away with that business years ago! (New tax laws and insurance killed the business for a friend of mine way back in the 1980s)
That’s the same Good Old Nancy “we have to pass the bill to see whats in it” Pelosi whose Brother-in-law got mega-bucks of US tax money. (Pelosi is on the Appropriations Committee that is responsible for setting specific expenditures of money by the government of the United States.)

Fried bird anyone?
And it is not just birds. Pilots in Nevada and California are complaining about being blinded by the solar farms. An air traffic controller filed a report after receiving “complaints from pilots,” and added he took a plane ride as a passenger to experience the distraction and agreed with the complaints. (And the eco-nut complain about a simple pipeline??)
Back to the birds and other wild life.
Darn, three links again
Steve please fish my comment out of the air before it gets fried by a solar panel.
Thanks
Obama has succeeded at something. Since he as been elected he has singlehandedly kept the US from being hit by a major hurricane in spite of “climate change”.
How do you know when a politician is lying? His lips are moving.

March 21, 2014 explains:
““Do Democrats really “get clobbered,” as a rule, in midterm elections? They did in 2010 for sure. But in the previous midterm, in 2006, it was Republicans who got clobbered, losing their majorities in both House and Senate. In 2002 and 1998 neither party really got clobbered; Republicans and Democrats, respectively, made gains in those years, but only modest ones. True, Democrats got clobbered in 1994. All told, Democrats have been clobbered in only two of the past five midterm elections.””
Obama’s trying to dodge personal responsibility for what’s about to happen.
