#1 OUCH!

I gotta check with this guy and see if he's any good at picking horses too.

#2 From the article:

"The IDIOTS who not only voted for the Messiah, but also worked their sorry asses-off to promote his Lordship, are now left holding the bag.

Here are two things they will NEVER do:

1 They will NEVER admit to making a blunder out of all proportion by electing a snake-oil salesman with no positive social history or management experience of any kind.

2 They will NEVER take responsibility for the curse theyve imposed upon the immediate and long-term future of their country.

In essence, the people responsible for putting this horror-show in power are in themselves responsible for every cataclysmic decision he makes and the consequences thereof."

This guy nails it. One of the most distinguishing characteristics of the left, particularly the NPR-listening ruling elite wannabes, is that they never, ever admit when they make a mistake, no matter how obvious it might be that that is precisely what they have done. Obama could set fire to a building full of second graders, the event could be captured on film and broadcast to the world, and most Obama voters would either deny that it had happened or spend the rest of their lives developing the most twisted and circular "logic" to explain how it was a really great thing he did, and they were NEVER wrong to vote for him.

To that type of insecure person, the allure of calling yourself a leftist is that those in charge on that side give permission to anyone to go through life thinking that they are perfect beings who never make mistakes simply if they ascribe to the agenda. The best example of this is the "it would work, if only the right people were in charge" socialists. They never question themselves or their failures of their agenda, because they lack the courage or mental tools or intellectual stamina to do so, and their "movement" gives them permission to be that way.

#3 Being a lefty (in love with yourself) means never having to say sorry.

#4 Maybe, if Americas first Emperor would stay home more and travel less, and work a little bit instead of being on television just about everyday, or forget about his Wednesday Date Nights with his Amazon Wife, or stop running to papered Town Hall Meetings, perhaps he would have a little bit of time to do the work of the nation.

how amazingly spot on...

not gonna happen, take himself out of the spotlight where he can adore himself and work? never! that would be so droll. besides work is for the little people.

#5 It won't take 6 months until the people figure this guy out and realize how horrible a mistake they've made.

Not all of the people. Not nearly all.
