With the pick of Democratic Thug Rahm Emanuel, to by his White House Enforcer (er, Chief of Staff) Obama is already – and not surprisingly – showing that his administration will be run as far to the left as possible, and if you don’t like it?
F-K you!
“The selection of Rahm Emanuel means that at least Obama is not going to take the path of least aggression. Taking an operation, the DCCC, which had mostly just handed a small amount of discretionary money to a handful of locally selected candidates, Emanuel created a political machine in the 2006 elections that was in many ways the real precursor of the famed Obama campaign. Emanuel found candidates no one had even heard of, called them every day on his cell phone, guided them in every detail of their campaigns, sent skilled people to help them plan their campaigns hounded them to raise their own campaign funds and cut them off mercilessly if they did not. The story of Emanuel and the campaign of 2006 is the subject of a book by Naftali Bendavid suitably entitled The Thumpin. It is almost unthinkable that Emanuel would have agreed to set aside his ambition to become speaker of the House of Representatives to preside over a staff that just picks bureaucrats who pass a smell test.
His appointment all but announces that Obama will try to pass some real progressive legislation in the first year.”
So let’s dispense from this silly crap coming from conservatives that maybe Obama will be “alright” after all. He won’t, we won’t and the country will suffer for it. This is war, it’s time to get to work to make sure that Obama is a one termer without anyone to fill his shoes.

1thanks for the warning. I keep hearing that half the American people are frightened now Obam’s machine a is in power. I beleive it is for good reason. The only compensation is that those who voted for him are going to suffer along with those of us who didn’t.

2Mac,
I’ve heard some normally rather conservative people saying they are “optimistic” about an Obama administration. I consider myself a moderate, independent voter, not a conservative, but I don’t feel so persuaded by Obama. Sometimes I wonder if he’s using hypnosis, as some people have suggested.
Obama looks and acts like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. What he says in public and what he plans with his close allies, people like Rahm (or other less visible allies), could be entirely different things.
He has very little record of actually running anything, and yet the voters have entrusted him to run the entire country.
It’s good to know there are some bloggers around who are helping to warn people about what may be in Obama’s untold plans. Now is the time to organize and be prepared to block any extreme or even just “boneheaded” maneuvers by the Obama administration.
I am hopeful that Obama is the moderate he says he is, but we can’t rely on hope alone (especially of the Obama variety) to assure us that he won’t betray the voters’ trust.
Thanks for helping organize and thanks for remaining vigilant when others are being lulled into complacency.
