I'll admit it. I join with Rush in hoping beyond hope that Obama's efforts to institute socialism fail... and fail miserably.
The hue and cry... the wailing and gnashing of teeth over Rush's remarks... and Rahm the Slam's amateurish efforts to capitalize on those remarks all cover up the fact of the matter.
And that fact is this:
For almost the entirety of his Administration, democrats hoped and prayed that Mr. Bush would fail.
Starting with Clinton communications guru James Carville, who, moments before he heard news of the terrorist attacks on September 11, told a group of reporters "I certainly hope he doesn't succeed."
"We rush into these focus groups with these doubts that people have about him, and I'm wanting them to turn against him," Greenberg admitted.This stands as the rank hypocrisy of the left... a senior Clintonista hoping that Bush would fail, whose remarks were buried at his request by an overtly leftist media... and this nonsensical double standard and effort by the fringe leftists that Obama has surrounded himself with to find a straw man they can beat the hell out of in the midst of their rampant insecurity.The pollster added with a chuckle of disbelief: "They don't want him to fail. I mean, they think it matters if the president of the United States fails."
Flashback: Carville Wanted Bush to Fail The press never reported that Democratic strategist James Carville said he wanted President Bush to fail before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. But a feeding frenzy ensued when radio host Rush Limbaugh recently said he wanted President Obama to fail.

Carville was joined by Democratic pollster Stanley Greenberg, who seemed encouraged by a survey he had just completed that revealed public misgivings about the newly minted president.
"We rush into these focus groups with these doubts that people have about him, and I'm wanting them to turn against him," Greenberg admitted.
The pollster added with a chuckle of disbelief: "They don't want him to fail. I mean, they think it matters if the president of the United States fails."
Minutes later, as news of the terrorist attacks reached the hotel conference room where the Democrats were having breakfast with the reporters, Carville announced: "Disregard everything we just said! This changes everything!"
The press followed Carville's orders, never reporting his or Greenberg's desire for Bush to fail. The omission was understandable at first, as reporters were consumed with chronicling the new war on terror. But months and even years later, the mainstream media chose to never resurrect those controversial sentiments, voiced by the Democratic Party's top strategists, that Bush should fail.
Funny thing was that just after the events of 9/11, Carville changed his tune. He realized that the world had changed in an instant and that strong wartime leadership would be needed.
ReplyDeleteIn time of war, we need a warrior. In time of peace, we need a peacemaker.
When do we need a socialist?

I honestly can't think of ANY time when failed policies of the past would serve us well... and socialism is REAL close to the top of that list!
