Of course they’re not responsible; they’re Demorats. They’re only victims. From The Hill:

Senate Democratic leaders on Thursday blamed Capitol Hill media for setting an August deadline for health reform and Republicans for blocking the bill’s progress.

Reid said reporters created a fictitious deadline of a successful vote by the August recess, and downplayed the fact that the chamber won’t meet that mark.

“That is a deadline that you created,” Reid told a group of about 75 reporters. “It’s not like we don’t have a product. Significant progress has been made … The mere fact that this wasn’t done by last Friday or by five o’clock doesn’t mean we’re not going to get a quality product.”

Oh, please. What a load of unmitigated crap. Mr Obama wanted everything yesterday, everything rammed down immediately, so that The People would be stunned by a flurry of action and wouldn’t recognize or realize what was happening until too terribly late.

That course of action, unfortunately for them, hasn’t worked out well due to Conservatives rallying in the form of blogs, various internet groups, sites, magazines and — gulp! — Conservative talk radio. The public is becoming better educated on both ObamaKare and Cap-N-Tax.

So, when Epic Fail looms, what do the Demorats do?

Oh yes, that’s right, they kick their very own sycophantic and craven boot-licking media to the curb.

American Press: are you starting to get a Clue yet?

No. Probably not.

You can only keep so much pressure on for so long a time.

Then you begin to implode. From The Hill:

I wouldn’t necessarily disagree. And it absolutely breaks my damned black little heart to read and hear of Demorats beginning to eat themselves.

Plus, uh, Our Hero continues to trend downwards. Imagine that. Go figure.

Poor Barry:

Hand me my hankie, will you?

ObamaKare isn’t a “given” — yet.

There’s still time to fight and the Demorats are taking other paths and realizing the ramdown isn’t quite working to their liking.

Why? YOU.

You’ve gone to sign the petition at FreeOurHealthcare.com.

You’ve also Called Congress — at (202) 224-3121.

You’ve stood up and made your views known. Blogs, the internet and that horrible Right Wing Radio.

So what do you suspect the coming focus will be once more?

You’ve got it: revisiting the so-called “Fairness Doctrine.”

Just you wait. I can hear it now. . .

In conclusion, let’s also revisit the Ten Top Tenets of Liberalism:

P.S.

I’m still here, but I’ve got no computer at work where I can show up early and conduct research and publish posts. My schedule also changed again and, quite frankly, I’m unsure where I’m going from week to week. My apologies to all my readers, also, for so few visits to your own wonderful blogs. I’ve still no idea when my own personal dust may settle.

Could things be getting a tad chillier nationally for Our Hero? From a presidential tracking poll:

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows that 30% of the nation’s voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-nine percent (39%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -9. (see trends).

Furthermore, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) had the temerity to publicly rebuke Our Hero and release more figures regarding ObamaKare. From Politico:

For the second time this month, congressional budget analysts have dealt a blow to the Democrat’s health reform efforts, this time by saying a plan touted by the White House as crucial to paying for the bill would actually save almost no money over 10 years.

Mr Obama’s policies and bills need to be gutted like a fish. And America is playing for ALL the proverbial marbles up front. If Conservatives can stop Mr Obama damned near in his tracks and foul up his agenda, if we can stymie ObamaKare and Cap-N-Tax, then we may actually have a chance of saving this nation. Yes, there will STILL be massive debt from TARP and Porkulus bills — but at least can can stop the steamroller from continuing on.

Perhaps the pendulum is midswing and thinking of coming back. . . ?
