I am guardedly optimistic about our future. I don’t expect anything like my financial plan to get implemented, but the mere fact that options exist prevents the imposition of an either/or scenario in the event of severe financial trouble. This reduces the options of the power elite who no doubt do largely influence events, if to a smaller degree than they would like, and to a lesser degree than the more conspiratorially minded assume.
I like to cook, and have made some good Hollandaise sauces, and some bad ones. If you heat things too quickly, the eggs curdle and the sauce breaks. Once it has broken, it is practically impossible to get it back to the status quo ante.
Whoever these power brokers actually are, they tried to do too much with Barack Obama. The man is a walking farce, a third rate intellect, with the moral compass of a Chicago gangster. He is no Mussollini or Lenin, or Hitler, all of whom–whatever else you say about them–were talented, cunning men. It is not enough and never has been enough to be whispering words in his ear. We are being “led” by a cardboard cutout with a speaker behind it.
People see this. It can’t be hidden. You can’t justify $125 billion in monthly borrowing. You can’t pass landscape altering bills, which will effect the lives of nearly every American, without reading the damn thing.
Obama is through. More than that, what he represents is through. The little lies, the “Communism by the drink” of the Democrats is just not playing in Peoria any more. Most Americans are wide awake and hopping mad, and this sentiment is only being inflamed by Obama’s continued efforts to insult our intelligence. He doesn’t get this, but he has never gotten much of anything.
More generally, the strategists, so used to lying with skill, have been slow coming to the realization that things really are different this time. This is not the Reagan Revolution. The fight this time is existential, and the prize this time the continued viability of the American experiment. We are going to the right, hard, and this motion will have the power of tsunami. 2010 was just the start. Everywhere I go I see post after post after post of informed outrage, of people making cases that were few and far between just 3 years ago. I often felt lonely then, but now I go many places and find I have nothing to add. This is a wonderful thing.
We do not need to revert to the Middle Ages to survive. This was, is and will always be nothing but a thinly veiled exercise in sadism, of psychological distortion, and moral depravity.
