Well I must say hope is in the air again. For the last few months I was starting to suspect that President Obama was a coward or worse, a turn coat. But all of that changed after watching him courageously go to the Republican Retreat in Maryland to debate, and he destroyed the Republicans and their talking points. It was like watching a skilled professor lecture and at times chastise a classroom of dishonest and disobedient students.
President Obama didn't show anger, he didn't loose his cool, he remained presidential and he just beat the republicans down with the facts. He showed that he was knowledgeable on all the subjects and issues. Obama destroyed all of the republicans ideas and talking points with the facts.
The republicans fucked up by inviting Obama to their retreat to speak and debate, thinking they could embarrass the president and get him to say something that they could run campaign ads against for the 2010 congressional campaigns. They were 'feeling themselves', over confident I guess because of the Scott Brown victory in Massachusetts and the recent gubernatorial victories in New Jersey and Virginia.
But what the republicans forget is that they don't have any new ideas, they don't have any plans for the 21st century. They only have old stale talking points. They are still running on Reaganomics that has proven to be a flawed and discredited economic plan.
If you haven't seen the debate you really need to watch it, it's over an hour long but it will be an hour well spent.
