#1 IMO 2010 US Elex will PALE in comparison to 2012-2020 iff IRAN, RADIC ISLAM + MILTERRS declare they not only possess Nukes-WMDS, BUT MORE IMPOR THREATEN TO USE SAME AGZ US-WEST + ALLIED.

To wit,

E.g. WMF > PUTIN: RUSSIA IN 2009 CONFISCATED 50,000 TONS OF TERROR-USABLE EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS AND FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS FROM RUSSIA'S AIRPORTS. INTERNATIONAL SMUGGLING IN SUPPORT OF TERRORISM IS A SERIOUS, WORSENING THREAT TO RUSSIA.

and

SAME > CHINA > CHINESE THINK-TANK: INTERNATIONAL NUCLEAR, ARMS SMUGGLING IS RUNNING RAMPANT AND MOSTLY UN-CONTROLLED. THE THREAT OF NUCLEAR TERRORISM, RADICLAISM IS VERY REAL.

* PAKISTANI DEFENCE FORUM > [Inter-Service-Agency = USDOD] US ANALYST: "JOINTNESS" A THREAT IN BEATING CHINA.

#2 And then theres

WMF > RUSSIAN COMMENTATOR: RISE OF CHINA WILL INEVITABLE LEAD TO HOSTILE COMPETITION AGZ RUSSIA RESULTING IN SINO-RUSSIAN GEOPOL, MILITARY CONFRONTATION, POTENTIAL MIL INVASION OF RUSSIA BY CHINA. PLA COULD INAVDE RUSSIA, KAZAKHISTAN [read, Central Asia former SSRS, + MONGOLIA.

#3 Proof that this is true can be found in this week's Newsweek magazine cover, which has declared that the recession is over and the economy is roaring, when it's obvious that that isn't the case.

Look at the rumpswabbery of now Bloomberg-owned Businees Week magazine which is in full tongue bath mode when it comes to Obama and the Dems.

There'a a reason for these early forays into declaring that everything is wonderful - that reason is to propagandize as many people as possible to the notion that all is well, the wellness is the result of Obama and congressional Democrats, and that Dem is the way to vote in November.

I didn't think that the MSM would go into this full lie mode this early - I figured it would start late July or so. The fact that they feel the need to do so so early tells me that things are way, way worse for the Dems than it even looks from the outside.

#4 I didn't think that the MSM would go into this full lie mode this early

MSM has been in full lie mode for a long time. Had they done their job of just reporting rather than propaganda, BO never would have been elected. MSM is going into "double-down" full lie mode now. The American people don't believe their blather and lies anymore. As is said People don't need a weatherman to tell which way the wind blows.

#5 Democrats will cut their losses as much as possible in 2010 by relying on the spectacle of the leftist media. The real focus of the left is to regain control for 2012 and beyond. They will continue to demonize the right while playing the "victim" in an attempt to win over Independents; their hope being to keep the White House and regain position in Congress. They will continue to blame Bush and the Republicans for our problems; especially if we get control of either house of Congress. The job of the current administration will be to hold off any attempts to reverse sweeping changes that have angered and energized voters long enough for the left to change the narrative (or for the people to lose interest). I fear that, barring any major international incident, this may work; it has in the past. The far left plays chess very well; they look ahead several election cycles. We would be wise to do the same; 2010 has to be our opening move, not a play for the King.

#6 A v-shaped recovery may not happen, but just in case it points out the need for conservatives to focus on government spending, the deficit, and the scandals in Washington, and not just the economy. Bambi's cheerleaders in the MSM will be relentless in trumpeting any slight improvement in the economy as the most wondrous thing ever, so the Pubs had better have the right focus.

#7 News has 484,000 new claims for unemployment last week.

After a year and a half, where are Obama's 3-4 million new jobs?

#8 Yup, so much for the rosy recovery predicted by Newsweak. The communists need to be thrown out of government. There is a big, big, big repair job needed in order to re-set the system to the Constitution.

#9 There is a big, big, big repair job needed in order to re-set the system to the Constitution.

Don't leave it to the Rethuglicons to do it alone. We, the people, need to stay on their a$$es 24/7 to do exactly that - restore the government to the limited role it is given in the Constitution. That won't be easy, and will take a tremendous amount of pressure from the people. Anything less, however, will be an open door for more gimmicks that allow congresscritters to buy votes with our money.
