America is Not a 50/50 Nation

Don’t be fooled by polls or other ‘ratings’ that show Obama still receiving 42%-44% approval among the American people. If 65%-70% of the American people support the Arizona immigration law—and polls consistently show that they do—65%-70% of the American people do not approve of Obama. Talking-head gibberish ‘explanations’ about the nuances involved in disagreeing on one issue while still supporting Obama overall are just that, gibberish. Americans’ approval of the Arizona law is not passive or lukewarm, and it is not narrow. It is a ‘damn right!” and “it’s about time!” feeling that covers many more topics than just border security, and it is absolutely a proxy for Americans’ increasing rejection of Obama and everything he is doing. As we've written extensively, the Arizona immigration law has crystallized for more and more people a basic question about who in the world is this President?

So don’t believe the next elitist who rolls out the standard lament about intractable problems and impossible-to-find solutions in a 50/50 nation. This is nothing but a liberal tactic designed to douse the fire of conservatism that is sweeping the country, and get spineless D.C. Republicans to return to ‘bipartisan’, reach-across-the-aisle accommodation to the leftist agenda. We aren’t a 50/50 nation; in fact, we’re approaching a 70/30 nation, which may actually be more unified than at any time since World War II. And it is a unity built around confidence in the core rightness of the ideals captured in America’s founding documents—a confidence deeply shared by most Americans without regard to party affiliation.

There’s a major, and for Obama, very ominous, implication in all this: a 70/30 nation has within itself the power to remove this fraudulent administration, including the President. The House and Senate will bow to the will of the people eventually. The people are making their will known in record numbers using an unprecedented number of methods, but the tsunami of American opinion that would like to see this fraudulent President removed from office NOW hasn’t yet penetrated the Beltway’s mesmerized state of thought.

Congressmen and Senators who return to home districts and states know full well how angry their constituents have become over an out-of-control, unaccountable government pursuing an agenda that was never made clear to the voters, much less endorsed. The insular D.C. media has so far been able to dilute Congress’ resolve to act in accordance with the wishes of the people. Democrat Party loyalty is still holding (though hanging by a thread), and that has been enough to keep Obama propped up. But Obama’s actions on so many fronts have been so far out of step with the American spirit and way of life that we believe the party loyalty thread is about ready to snap. When it does, the undiluted power of the 70/30 reality will materialize in a hurry, and Obama will face hostility and opposition on a scale he doesn’t comprehend and will not be able to defeat or deflect.

The leftists think they can hold it all together with a combination of orchestrated public appearances and message control and coordination among the Pravda media. But this page from the playbook of the past is not enough anymore. Truth has a way of breaking through these schemes, and lies have a way of collapsing on themselves and those who spread them.

Obama and his cabal have lied about their ‘laser-like’ focus on jobs; they have lied about their commitment to fiscal/budgetary responsibility and lower taxes; they have lied about their commitment to transparency in law-making; they have lied about their foreign and domestic alliances and sympathies; they have lied about their response to the oil spill; they have lied about the Arizona immigration law. And that’s not even close to a complete list.

This regime really is, in its entirety, an imposition on America—an excessive and uncalled for burden that America did not seek and does not want. Americans want the regime removed from office. They will make this known in elections of course, but we think they will demand more, and sooner. The 70% have had enough, and Washington, D.C., is very close to getting the message. When Democrat Party loyalty finally snaps—and we think it will happen in the next 2-3 months as more and more Democrat office holders see themselves about to get sent packing in November—the entire political dynamic could turn radically against Obama and the whole regime.

Can’t happen soon enough. We are not a 50/50 nation, and we need to stop accepting the paralysis that comes from the bogus belief that we are. Americans are united as never before in their desire for a return to the America of the founding, and they can make it happen sooner than any politician or pundit believes possible.
