That is the single biggest take away line from the Jon Stewart / President Obama appearance on comedy central:

“You ran on very high rhetoric, hope and change, and the Democrats this year seem to be running on, ‘Please baby, one more chance’,’’ Mr. Stewart said at one point. At another, he asked the president if he was now running on “Yes we can, with certain conditions.’’

Mr. Obama replied, “I think I would say, ‘Yes we can, but –“

Yes we can BUT!

With a slick sales pitch you can get people to go to a new restaurant, but if the food stinks, it doesn’t matter how you sell it they’re not coming back.

When even the NYT can’t spin this positive you know the game is up.

Pelosi’s problem is that she and the democrats get ALL the credit for what they have done…

…it’s just that the voters don’t like it and never liked it.

The pledge of allegiance story out of Illinois is interesting in that it reminded me of something that was said at the Marty Lamb / Jim McGovern debate two weeks ago.

Well we didn’t have the pledge of allegiance there was no American flag to me that was the major thing. That’s what Democrats, Republicans, Independents that what we all stand for is that flag, and that’s very dear to me so I was very hurt by that more than anything. It pretty much set a bad tone for me…

Apparently the league of woman voters would disagree, I find that interesting.

But even more interesting is this at the Huff Po

A Featured Article at HuffPo & NO COMMENTS & CLOSED COMMENTS

The Huffpo community is a large one, how it that there were no comments on a featured post before they were closed?

The answer is simple 10 days before an election the Liberal Huff post doesn’t dare allow its members to speak their mind on the pledge of allegiance in any forum where the American People might see it.

It will take more than closing comments to stop the big red wave.

Let me remind the ignorant at Mediate that anyone who has actually paid attention knows and can see that the Impeach Obama

Kesha Rogers DEMOCRATIC PARTY NOMINEE for congress in Texas 22nd district

signs with the Hitler Mustaches that you constantly see are held by the Lyndon LaRouche people who are not Tea Party people, they are in fact Democrats.

May I also point out that one of those LaRouche Democrats Kesha Rogers is actually the Democratic party nominee for congress in Tx-22?

This story has been covered by blogs such as Big Government and I Hate the Media ,but for some reason Mediaite the MSM, Bill Maher et/all have no use for it.

However AOL NEWS did talk to her and she had this to say:

9) In 50 words or less, what’s the first thing the new Congress should do to improve the economy?

Use the 25th Amendment to remove Obama from office, for mental incompetency. Then, reinstate FDR’s 1933 Glass-Steagall act, to end Wall Street bailouts. Invest trillions in physical infrastructure and productive jobs, especially in NASA, terraforming the biosphere, nuclear power and maglev rail. Revive the culture of the American Classical tradition.

10) In 50 words or less, what’s the biggest threat facing the country today?

Hyperinflation. The world banking system is hopelessly bankrupt, and simply printing bailout money will make our banks collapse. This is already happening. This policy will send the world into a dark age, and if not stopped with global Glass-Steagall type measures, will wipe out whole nations and cultures.

Let’s just remind you…this is the DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE for congress in Tx-22. (the republican office holder is 1st term congressman Pete Olson btw)

Maybe it’s just me but I think that a black woman calling for the removal of President Obama from office representing the Democratic Party in a congressional election would seem like an interesting story to me.

But Rob Reiner (who is a great comic and director) finds comfort in their Nazi fantasies, that way when they lose to the Big Red Wave, it won’t be because the American people rejected them, it will be due to the forces of Evil!
