Except Brat gave an interview the day after his primary win...and pretty much blew it. He's an economic prof and he couldn't give a well-thought out anwer -- or indeed any answer -- to a question about minimum wage.
He isn't toast yet...but he's starting to look a little stale.

Obama is supposed to be a Constitutional Scholar and he still gives poor answers on constitutional issues.
Brat had just won one of the biggest upsets in political history, he wanted to celebrate.

Am no lover nor defender of Obama, but as a "constitutional scholar" he called both DOMA and the ACA mandate correctly. Ok, even a stopped clock is correct twice a day, but still on two of the largest issues before the SCOTUS of this administration indeed the nation's history Obama's "side" prevailed.
Will grant you that both aforementioned decisions came as "5-4" decisions which means in future when either issue is taken up again (and they will) things can go either way.

Roberts found it constitutional for reasons Obama said it wasn't. Most things never get to the court unfortunately. Like killing American citizens without due process.

Obama and the Democrats/liberals pushing the ACA *said* it wasn't a tax but few could do so with a straight face. Again anyone with an ounce of legal education knew exactly what the mandate was, a tax. If it wasn't the thing wouldn't have stood a snowball's in hell chance of passing constitutional muster.
This president *says* lots of things that he obviously doesn't mean and or whatever He "said" he was against SSM and look how long that lasted.
Bundy said they were better off as slaves. And I'm sure Obama has ancestors who were slaves, just not slaves in the United States.
More likely slave dealers and sellers. Slaves were actually caught by other Africans and sold to the Muslim Arabs --- Obama's Kenyan family was wealthy and Muslim.

No he didn't and you never watched it.

You never watched the interview. Your answer was based on one thing only, just because someone said. Lemming mentality. Talk about stale.
All I know is that if you take the long run graph over 200 years of the wage rate it cannot differ from your nations productivity. You can't make up wage rates. You have to raise productivity then the wage rate follows. You cannot artificially make up wage rates they have to relate to productivity.
Someone on another site said that Eric Cantor's loss to Mr. Brat is the equivalent of tossing out Darth Vader for Jar-Jar Binks.
I think that pretty much nails it.
Your tabloid post says nothing about policy because you have have nothing to fall back on except the failed policies of Obama. It's always about policy

O.K. so we at least agree that he isn't very good at telling the truth.

The problem is that Obama knowingly deceived the American people to pull a fast one, insisting the Obamacare penalty wasn't a tax, but full well knowing it was unconstitutional unless it actually is a tax.
If he thought Obamacare was so great and believed in it so much, why not just tell the truth about it from the beginning and let the people decide if they want to pay more taxes for it?
