O’Reilly And Krauthammer Agree:
Obama’s Long-Term Goal Is The
Destruction Of The Republican Party

Mediaite, by Josh Feldman

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/16/2013 12:23:20 PM

President Obama has had a complicated history working with congressional Republicans, but is part of his agenda the ultimate failure of his political opposition? That was what both Bill O’Reilly and Charles Krauthammer contended tonight, with O’Reilly attributing it more to a cultural shift in the United States, while Krauthammer argued Obama’s advantage is more a consequence of winning an election. (Snip) O’Reilly said that Obama is far more interested in scoring political points by damaging the GOP than solving the nation’s problems. Krauthammer argued that has been his modus operandi for the past few years, particularly

O´Reilly and Krauthammer are correct.

Remember the quote from "Chicago Bob" that I´ve posted over and over:

"I was in a meeting after Obama got elected and I was told by the Democratic officials in that meeting that we were gonna get billions of dollars that was gonna come down the pike, our way, and what we were to do with it was, we were supposed to build a…

"We are gonna build an army of Democratic patronage jobs…. gonna completely freeze up the Republicans forever and ever…"

Perhaps that is not a bad thing. The Republican party has been adrift, undefined and imploding very slowly on it´s own. Better and stronger still might be whatever arises from it´s ashes.

Rush said this awhile ago, and I must agree with these 2. If Mr. o continues to destroy the GOP, then we end up with one party rule. Does one party not ring a bell with any of the no-information voters (Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Chavez, etc.). Is that what Americans want, the tyranny of one party rule?

They almost have it. NerØbama seeks to discredit and destroy conservatism. Many among the GOP elite are complicit, and are part of the problem. The GOP (aka "Democrat lite") needs to yield political ground to a new conservative party.

First, Republicans in Congress need to realize this isn´t 10 or 30 years ago.

Second, they need to realize Democrats aren´t your friend across-the-aisle.

Third, Obama, and most elected democrats are liberals (or Progressives).

Most people aren´t liberal, so start painting all the problems on liberal policies and schemes.
(the ACLU prevented that mother from involuntarily committing her son in Massachussets)
(the Sierra club is preventing exploration and development of our natural resources which is driving up the costs on the middle class)

Fourth, do not expect Democrats in Congress, or the White House, to "come around". They have an agenda.

Fifth, only 21% identify as liberal, but 43% identify as Conservative.
(clearly 79% of the population don´t support the liberal/progressive/democrat schemes)

In a speech that addressed youth violence in Chicago, First Lady Michelle Obama compared herself to Hadiya Pendleton, a 15-year-old girl murdered soon after attending President Obama´s Second Inauguration. "Hadiya Pendleton was me, and I was her," said the first lady. "Thousands of children in this city live in neighborhoods where a funeral for a teenager is considered unfortunate, but not unusual; where wandering onto the wrong block or even just standing on your own front porch can mean putting yourself at risk," Michelle Obama told the Chicago crowd, according to a transcript provided by the White House.

Left-wing magazine Mother Jones made news this week with a report based on a secret recording of a Feb. 2 meeting of Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell with campaign strategists. Federal and state law prohibits publication of information acquired through secret recording, but a 2001 Supreme Court ruling gives publishers like Mother Jones a get-out-of-jail-free card. But whoever taped the private conversation can’t wiggle off the hook so easily. Whoever bugged the meeting room or secretly placed a recording device will be in serious legal trouble — unless he or she was one of the strategists.

A Michigan high school canceled a speech by former Sen. Rick Santorum after teachers became outraged over his opposition to gay marriage and threatened to stage protests and a possible work stoppage. Santorum had been invited to deliver a upcoming speech on leadership by the Young Americans for Freedom chapter at Gross Pointe South High School. But the speech was canceled on Monday after the school district’s superintendent heard from angry teachers. “It’s a sad day when liberal educators are allowed to influence young minds – extending free speech rights only to those who share their liberal views,” Santorum said

After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

President Obama´s push to pass stricter gun control laws will cost Democrats in the 2014 midterm elections, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said Wednesday. "I think the president has shown he is willing to demagogue an issue and that it is ultimately going to backfire," Cruz said in an interview on Laura Ingraham´s radio show. Cruz´s comments come as Congress debates passing a set of gun control measures meant to reduce gun violence and prevent shooting massacres similar to the one at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

During Barack Obama´s presidency there have been 32 background checks for gun purchases every minute. Since February of 2009, the first full month of Obama´s presidency, there have been 70,291,049 background checks for gun purchases, according to data released by the FBI. Using February 1, 2009 as our starting date, and March 31, 2013 as our end date, (the latest data from the FBI) Obama has been president for 1,520 days. That equates to 36,480 hours, or 2,188,800 minutes. Divide the 70,291,049 background checks by 2,188,800 minutes and you get approximately 32 checks for gun purchases every minute!

As he rolls out his fiscal 2014 budget on Wednesday, a new survey finds that Americans haven’t felt this confident about President Obama’s handling of the economy since his first year in office. The Gallup poll, which sampled more than 1,000 Americans, found that 57 percent say they have a “great deal or a fair amount of confidence” in Mr. Obama to do the right thing on the economy. That’s up from just 50 percent last year and hasn’t been this high since it hit 71 percent in 2008. Trust in congressional Republicans, on the other hand, remains low.

Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.
