When Freedom Rings

Obama’s bill, or the one he outsourced to the Dems in the House and Senate, is losing ground, and citizens are doing their civic duty, reminding their representatives that they represent the views of the voters.  Senators and Reps can’t find a room without a ringing phone suddenly, and its getting to them.  Public opinion has turned mightily on this bill, and even McCain is firing from both barrels against the President, who still thinks he can turn the world on with his smile.

This is the groundwork for a major defeat, as the CBO is warning against the bill now, and Dianne Feinstein is throwing more brushback pitches at the leader of the free world.

 

“What in my view a stimulus is, is not candidly speaking a tax package,” she said. “I do not believe in this economy tax cuts are simulative… I worry about this economy. The point of this package is to get jobs out to the people. So I reserve the right at the end of the day to vote against a package that does put those jobs out there.”

Ruh roh.  Obama backed a really fat horse to win, and the bettors are seeing the reality of this bill suddenly.  Hope and Change is looking worse for wear recently.  Republicans and the dreaded BlueDog Democrats are the real factor in the Senate at the moment, and the Left is losing ground fast on the yay side.  Wow, the above is a really poorly written paragraph!
The President is going to need a big upset to pull this off suddenly.  Its politics, so its not over, but I wouldn’t be surprised by charges of racism before the weekend is out, or a ploy on old people and Medicaid.  
Sidenote:  This isn’t Obama’s first run-in with backing a plan that makes no sense, even when actual experts say its foolish.  Remember when he said he was for capital-gains’ tax increases, even though its historically shown to REDUCE guvamint revenues?
No?  I got your back.
LOL, he’s in charge of our economy.  Buyer’s remorse, anyone?
