That will come after he and his people take over the airwaves for their dicatatorial crap. Kind of like 1984 and other books of the mid-1900s.

I guess none of your friends attended Rev. Wright's church like Obama did.

Oh, I thought he was a Muslim who paled around with terrorists? Which one is it?

Barack Obama spoke with 5 networks on Sunday to promote his nationalized health care plan. Ug. Now Letterman. Wasn't it last week he was speaking to the students.

So how many times has he appeared on TV now? How many times has he appeared on the cover of Time, Newsweek, Rolling Stone? I wait with baited breathe for another Obama poster.

The media blitz, the iconography associated with Obama and the subversion of the NEA by the WH, is reminiscent of how the Soviets were able to advance their agenda when it contained little substance and lots of rhetric.

All these appearances are grossly unfair to Chris Mathews - his last "tingle" was dangerously close to the 4 hour mark.

And the beauty of his blitzkreig?

Through all the talking points, show after show, with the same old rhetoric, the ONE highlight that gets played over and over again, is his argument with the definition of a tax.

You couldn't ask for anything better than that.

Even the media couldn't let that one pass.

He just increased the disbelief in his rhetoric the way no one else could have.

So did Letterman ask any important questions?

[sanrene]

Of course not - did you really expect him to?

Asked by Letterman about the wisdom of the war in Iraq, Mr. Obama said, "because Saddam Hussein is not there, that's a good thing."

VERY IMPORTANTY NUANCE: Mr. Obama added, however, that "that given the enormous stakes we had in Afghanistan, we should have finished the job there."

To me, that sounds like he is securing defeat in afghanistan ASAP... and framing it to sound like Bush lost the war.

I would not waste the electricity on Letterman so I guess I didn't get to see the POTUS.
