Thursday nig...Their only hope= <b>Massive</b> voter fraud<br /><br /><i>Thursday night in Charlotte, Barack Obama doubled down on his liberalism, articulating the case for big government, greater regulation, and more spending (which he calls "investing"). He defined a choice that is starkly ideological, courageously embracing the left. We have not seen such positioning since the days of Mike Dukakis and Walter Mondale. And with good reason: the American people are conservative.<br /><br />Asked in a recent poll, "would you rather that government get out of your way or lend you a hand?" Americans voted 54% to 35% for the government to get out of the way. It was odd to watch a president commit political suicide by so brazen and overt an embrace of the 35% and a repudiation of the 54%.<br /><br />While eloquent as he accepted his party's nomination, Obama failed to go after Mitt Romney in his speech and throughout the whole Democratic convention. "The folks in Tampa," "the Republican establishment" and "the conservative Congress" all came in for a thrashing. Mitt Romney was not on the list in both Clinton and Obama's speeches. In fact, his name was hardly mentioned -- an odd occurrence in view of the over $100 million Obama has spent on ads attacking Romney.<br /><br />Overall, tonight left America with the impression that Obama saved GM, killed Bin Laden, and passed ObamaCare (which most of us don't like). What a thin, thin record on which to base a plea for reelection.<br /><br />The result of these two conventions is a decided advantage for Romney.<br /></i><br />-Dick Morrisgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02015936407999495181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-88762556180889279572012-09-09T16:17:19.308-07:002012-09-09T16:17:19.308-07:00President Romney, not 4 more of<a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/The-New-Yorker-July-21-2008.jpg" rel="nofollow">President Romney, not 4 more of</a>gehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02015936407999495181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-30627522540125337912012-09-09T14:40:02.279-07:002012-09-09T14:40:02.279-07:00Off topic,

It's getting to that point of conversion that seems to me to be the real mystery. <br /><br />Certainly, the fact that the left has control of education, the media, Hollywood and the artworld can go a long way to explaining why it can be so hard to see the obvious. <br /><br />I spent the bulk of my life trying to follow the prescriptions for the "good life" laid out by the good people listed above.

Honestly, it baffles me just exactly how I got myself turned back around to the Light.<br /><br />As Blake had it, "the fool who persists in his folly, would become wise". Or if not wise, at least a not quite so deluded.<br /><br />Still, it seems more likely that the fool who persists in his folly is a registered Democrat.

Pure demon projection. Not only does it vilify innocent people, but it trivializes the enormity of racism.<br /><br />It's hard to think of too many liberals of my acquaintance in whom one isn't aware of a darkness inside. Speaking for myself, I definitely imported that darkness, because it's part of the conversion process: instead of turning toward the light, one either rebels against the light or embraces darkness. I think the latter is worse. Fortunately, I never went there.<br /><br />I'm able to talk about these things quite openly with my seven-year old, since he's still slightly closer to heaven than earth. I've asked him to tell me if and when he starts to be aware of the darkness, and to especially let me know if he feels it making a home inside, because that's how the conversion gets underway.<br /><br />Then I'll have to pull out my Raccoon Guide to Do-it-Yourself Exorcism, by Toots Mondello's brother in law, Alf.<br /><br />It's all about the Light, isn't it?<br />Gagdad Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14249005793605006679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-80733029150809654262012-09-08T17:24:04.977-07:002012-09-08T17:24:04.977-07:00Jack, I think that's part of the trouble - peo...Jack, I think that's part of the trouble - people have to first <i>see</i> the insanity, then realize that that's not just the lunatic fringe of leftism, it's pretty much the norm. And of course, if they're getting their news from the lamestream media, that's a truth that is carefully hidden. <br /><br />Thus, otherwise intelligent people will happily proclaim, "Osama Bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive!" without ever questioning the meaning behind those words. Obama is responsible for both, as far as they know; they heard it on the news. Huzzah!<br /><br />You just can't argue with that; either they see what is wrong with the statement and its implications or they think it's a perfect argument for four more years.
