My Twit is Better Than Your Twit: Obama and the Politics of Stupidity

America is fed up and getting ready to do something about it. Come November second, control of both houses of congress may revert to adult control for the first time since... well, the first time in a very long time.

Congress has been mishandled by profiteers, loony tunes, leftists and lunatics for decades and voters are about to set it right. Look out below, the bottom is coming into sight and the free fall is faster then you think.

As the Obama-nator falls, so fall the leftists.

New Polls Showcase Obama’s Freefall

New opinion polls Tuesday made painful reading for President Barack Obama’s Democrats, cementing conventional wisdom that they face a pounding by Republicans in November’s congressional elections.

The surveys, published after the traditional campaign kick-off date of the Labor Day weekend, suggest voters have soured on Obama, see him as too liberal and are increasingly pessimistic about the sluggish economic recovery.

At a time of high unemployment and economic pain, it appears that the cocktail of hope and change that powered Obama to the presidency has drained away and that a short era of Democratic political dominance may be closing.

Yet the polls also suggest that despite its anger at incumbent Democrats, the public has little genuine affection for Republicans, opening possible lines of attack for the White House as it seeks to limit the damage.

A Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll shows Republicans have a yawning 49 percent to 40 percent advantage among likely voters, which would probably be enough for them to grab back control of the House of Representatives.

What Do The Tea Parties Want?

Basically, they want choice.

http://oregonmag.com/

it might be a choice about whether or not the U.S. Government should run multi-trillion-dollar deficits.

Or does or doesn't spend your money rehabilitating minarets (mosque architectural components) in nations who harbor terrorists who want to kill every Jew in Israel.

Or, if you are a Catholic, whether or not your government uses your money to pay for "free" abortions under the auspices of a socialized medicine program.

It's quite simple, actually. Conservatives and Libertarians want freedom.

Liberals (progressives) want to own everything and everybody, like a medievil monarch. The word "progressive" means "change," and implies change in a "forward" direction. Change to what, you ask? You'd like to know just what a progressive means by forward? Well a different U.S. Constitution, for a start. For example, they would like to have a nation which practices massive redistribution of income. Taking from those who earn a living, then giving the money to those who don't.

The government would be the "agent" here, taking a commission for transferring the funds.
