The Second Most Hated Person By the Left

Hey folks,

Obama really stepped in it this time. I caught this Friday night when I popped in. This is really interesting. I have been asked a couple of times, who I thought the NEW Dems, the LWL, hated OTHER than Bush. That’s easy I said, Reagan. Then I saw this, and THIS confirms it.

According to the AP - Rivals blast Obama's praise for Reagan By NEDRA PICKLER, Associated Press Writer1 hour, 1 minute ago

John Edwards and Hillary Rodham Clinton criticized Barack Obama's praise of the Republican Party and Ronald Reagan — an anathema for many Democrats, particularly union members considered crucial to winning Nevada's Democratic caucuses Saturday.

What was he thinking? Do you think this is one of the reasons he just lost to Clinton?

Obama responded by suggesting Clinton would be a president whose plans change with the politics of the moment — one of his most direct critiques of the New York senator yet.

ABSOLUTELY! Go get her Barack

The intensity reflects what polls suggest could be a tight contest Saturday as Nevada plays its most prominent role ever in a presidential nominating campaign. Nevada was granted a coveted spot right after Iowa and New Hampshire in an attempt to bring more racial and geographic diversity into the selection.

Which will not bode well for Hillary.

The novelty means there isn't a reliable way to determine who is likely to turn out at caucuses across the state. In addition, nine caucuses are to be held in casinos for the first time to allow shift workers to participate on a busy holiday weekend — making the result even more unpredictable.

It actually is ALWAYS unpredictable. The “experts” haven’t got any right yet. {Smile}

Obama got a boost when he won the endorsement of the Culinary Workers Union that represents 60,000 housekeepers, bartenders, waiters and other employees on the Las Vegas Strip. Then a judge dismissed an attempt to eliminate the casino caucus sites. But Clinton still holds an edge in most polls.

Who’s polls? I bet you the “experts” will get it wrong again. They were right.

Edwards, his chances for the presidency diminished by losses to Obama in Iowa and Clinton in New Hampshire, did not run television ads in the state and did not plan to stay in Nevada to wait for results. His schedule Friday had him leaving to campaign in Oklahoma, Missouri and Georgia, among the more than 20 states that vote on Super Tuesday, Feb. 5.

Edwards questioned Obama's commitment to labor in his final appeal to Nevada voters — a rally with about 100 of his precinct captains in Las Vegas.

"Ronald Reagan, the man who busted unions, the man who did everything in his power to destroy the organized labor movement, the man who created a tax structure that favored the richest Americans against middle class and working families, ... we know that Ronald Reagan is not an example of change for a presidential candidate running in the Democratic Party," Edwards said.

{Laughing} What a bunch of unadulterated bunk. Reagan was one of the greatest Presidents in history. Most recognize it, do not now, nor will they EVER accept this attempt to rewrite history in the LWL version.

Reagan also "was destructive to the environment by removing a lot of the regulation that existed," Edwards added in a later telephone interview with The Associated Press. "I would never use Ronald Reagan as an example of change."

It worked. All of it. The economy thrived. Once you stop bowing the Liberal nut cases that do not care about anything but their self importance, fact-less, and truth-less, agendas, things get done. Imagine that.

Obama told the Reno Gazette-Journal editorial board Monday that "Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not. He put us on a fundamentally different path because the country was ready for it," Obama said.

WOW! That is two times I have to give Barack a kudos. He is RIGHT. That is what they hate about it. He is right.

"I think it's fair to say that the Republicans were the party of ideas for a pretty long chunk of time there over the last 10 to 15 years in the sense that they were challenging conventional wisdom," Obama told the newspaper.

On Friday in Las Vegas, Clinton, responded, "That's not the way I remember the last ten to fifteen years." She said she didn't consider it a better idea to privatize Social Security, eliminate the minimum wage, undercut health benefits, shut down the government or drive the country into debt. "I think we know what needs to be done in America. And I think we're ready to do it. I'm ready to lead on day one."

To Socialism. This is why they hate people like Reagan. This is why they hate ANY Conservative. It’s simple folks, Conservatism IS the answer to Socialism and Tyranny.

Obama questioned her claim while campaigning at the University of Nevada Reno. "Senator Clinton has said she is ready to lead from day one, but it's important on day one to get it right, whether you're talking about war or you're talking about economic proposals."

When did Obama become a Republican?

Obama said Clinton recently joined his call for a tax rebate. When she initially announced her economic stimulus plan last week, she said she would consider a tax rebate in the future if the economy worsened.

"This is a larger point that has to be made," he said. "It is easy to be for policies that help working families when it's popular on the campaign trail, but the American people don't want a president whose plans change with the politics of the moment."

The Clinton campaign said there were reports of voter intimidation and confusion among Culinary Union members who support Clinton. Some union members thought the union's endorsement of Obama meant they wouldn't be allowed to caucus for Clinton, while others feared retaliation if they chose to caucus for Clinton, Clinton aides said.

{Sigh} Here we go again. Both gave their vision. The CU listened. They Chose Obama. But that cannot happen. It cannot be Hillary’s message. She KNOWS what is best for you and you will accept it. It cannot POSSIBLY be anything to do with her. She is perfect and you will just accept it. If you do not, then there was something wrong with YOU. You were intimidated, someone cheated, something went wrong, it’s a conspiracy This is getting old fast.

"I'm afraid some people may feel that they can't come or they shouldn't come or can't support the candidate of their choice." Clinton herself said during a campaign appearance Friday in Elko, in northeast Nevada. "We know there are some unions in the south who are telling people who to caucus for and if they're not going to caucus for who they choose, don't come at all. I don't think that's right."

Do you have any PROOF of this? Never mind, I know you aren’t going to prove it. You can’t.

OK, do not misunderstand me folks. I’m having fun with this one, no doubt about it, but Obama is just a Liberal as Clinton. I haven’t drank the cool aid. I still would not vote for him. But he WAS on fire and he WAS telling the truth. They just can’t handle,,,never mind, too easy.


But apparently, the people of Nevada hate Reagan more than they do Racists comments.
