Charles Krauthammer: Mitt Romney Best Candidate Against Obama in 2012

Charles Krauthammer and Kristen Powers say that Romney is the best candidate to go against Obama in 2012.  Kristen states that he would be “the best candidate in 2012.”  Note that she didn’t say “the best to go against Obama”, but THE best in 2012.”  She also points out that she feels that he would have a hard time getting out of the primary because of the Evangelicals,”  such a sad shame.  Can it be said then that Evangelicals are to blame for Obama being in the White House today?

Will it be said that Evangelicals will be the reason Obama stays as POTUS for another 4 years if they are successful at keeping Romney out?  What are your thoughts on how we can help Romney overcome this hurdle?

Rush Limbaugh Reads a Letter To President Obama

This letter that Rush Limbaugh reads to Barack Obama reflects the feelings that I had as I watched the State of The Union address.  Thank you Rush for articulating what many of us are feeling after listening to this address, especially when you called the President out for despicably berating the Supreme Court in front of Congress and the American people.

Video: Mitt Romney on ‘Your World With Neil Cavuto’

Mitt lays out a pretty good case for Ben Bernanke here.  He states that Bernanke is not without mistake, but he is afraid Obama would appoint someone far worse.  Neil told Romney he did such a good job he could be a “co-anchor.” As always, Mitt performed very well in this interview.  He didn’t sound at all like a potential campaigner, but as someone who really cares about the country and the direction Obama is taken it.  Let me know your thoughts.

Justice Alito mouths ‘not true’ During State of The Union Address

POLITICO’s Kasie Hunt, who’s in the House chamber, reports that Justice Samuel Alito mouthed the words “not true” when President Barack Obama criticized the Supreme Court’s campaign finance decision.

“Last week, the Supreme Court reversed a century of law to open the floodgates for special interests — including foreign corporations — to spend without limit in our elections,” Obama said. “Well I don’t think American elections should be bankrolled by America’s most powerful interests, or worse, by foreign entities. They should be decided by the American people, and that’s why I’m urging Democrats and Republicans to pass a bill that helps to right this wrong.”

The shot of the black-robed Supreme Court justices, stone-faced, was priceless.

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) stood up behind the justices and clapped vigorously while Alito shook his head and quietly mouthed his discontent.

Schumer and Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md) are trying to find a way to legislate around the Supreme Court decision.

“All you have to do is read the dissent, the four justices who said this will defintely open the floodgates to big corporate special interests. Anybody who thinks that’s not true is out of touch with the American political process.” Van Hollen said.

Van Hollen told POLITICO he expects to unveil the package in the next 10 days to two weeks.

Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) was glad the president called out the Supreme Court.
“He [Alito] deserved to be criticized, if he didn’t like it he can mouth whatever they want,” Weiner said. “These Supreme Court justices sometimes forget that we live in the real world. They got a real world reminder tonight, if you make a boneheaded decision, someone’s going to call you out on it.”

But one conservative legal expert took sides with Alito — at least on the substance of Obama’s comments.

The President’s swipe at the Supreme Court was a breach of decorum, and represents the worst of Washington politics — scapegoating ‘special interest’ bogeymen for all that ails Washington in attempt to silence the diverse range of speakers in our democracy,” said Bradley A. Smith, chairman of the Center for Competitive Politics, in The Corner blog on Nationalreview.com.

State of The Union: Obama Blames Bush, Plays Politics As Usual

State of the Union

Where does one even start in trying to respond to Barack Obama’s highly hypocritical, irresponsible, blame Bush, pander to independent and angry voters, and a veiled attempt to make Republicans look like the ones responsible for not taking care of the middle class speech?

Ahhhh!  Let me just come down for a minute and say that I think that Obama’s far left policies, after campaigning from the center, have so deeply traumatized many who trusted him into office that it doesn’t matter what he says from this point on.  He is in between a rock and a hard spot and the only thing that can save him is doing the right thing for America.  But instead of taking accountability (he did have a passive admission that some of the criticism was merited, although not specific) he blamed Bush nearly the entire time by reminding us that he “inherited a crisis.”

Well, Mr. President, I don’t care how much you try to diffuse the damage you’ve done in the minds of those who so blindly trusted you….you’re not going to talk your way out of this mess.  What happened in Massachusetts was NOT a warning from the people that you and your cronies in Congress better get your act together, as Howard Dean suggested it was with his psychological “jedi mind trick”, rather it was a clear statement from Americans that they are through with you and your party.  All it takes is 1 year of your administration for people to wake up and smell the bull crap coming out of your mouth!

Many of us warned those who lack sound judgment that this, what we are seeing today, would be the outcome of your administration.  We would have joyfully voted for Hillary over you.  And as it has been leaked from some of your top aids that you spend time surfing the web reading articles and opinions peaces written about, which they also said affected your judgment, I hope you are reading this piece you unashamed deceiver of the people.

And how can you take a slap at Republicans for opposing the bill, indicating that THEY are the ones playing politics and suggesting that that is the reason the GOP won in Massachusetts, not because the people actually disagreed  with you trying to shove a health care bill down their throats that they, The People who put you in office, highly opposed??  Do you really think that is what the angry voters who sent you the message in MA wanted to hear Mr. President?  How can you play the saint, making Republicans look like the bad guys, when you wouldn’t keep your promise to make health care a bi-partisan issue?  Don’t you remember all the promises you made on the campaign trail about expounding the health care bill on c-span?

You Pelosi and Reid wouldn’t even open to any Republicans.  Did you notice during your hit piece on Bush that you challenged Republicans to provide you with ideas on health reform, as if they had none?  Have you really been that busy apologizing for America that you were unaware of all the recommendations to take out the public option, take out the kickbacks and favors and to slow down so we could actually understand the full measure of the bill?  No!  In a manner that was very alarming, you tried to ram it through as if there were things in the bill you were afraid we, the American people, would find out about that shouldn’t be in there.  This resulted in a huge loss of trust and a major withdrawal from our emotional bank accounts.  WE DON’T TRUST YOU ANYMORE MR. PRESIDENT!

Some of us never trusted you, based on your own record and background, but many whom you fooled into voting for you in 2008 will not make the same mistake in 2012 -mark my words.

America isn’t in need of a President that shifts with the political winds, she needs one who will stick to his principles regardless of what the polls say.  You’ve sold your soul in that you have not only made bad decisions for America, you have insulted your voters by insinuating that their decision in MA was not based on principle but on anger toward you, which you took as meaning you had to shirk responsibility in an attempt to restore yourself in their eyes.  You judged wrong.  These are the people whom you were supposed to give HOPE to.  Instead, you have given them despair.

Look out for Mitt Romney in 2012.
