Barack Obama Divider: America’s Culture War Begins

A tweaked-out poster on a left-wing website wrote the following today:

Barack Hussein Obama.. the GREATEST PRESIDENT since FDR.

Nancy Patricia D’Alesandro Pelosi.. the GREATEST Speaker of the House since Sam Rayburn.

… & this is ONLY the BEGINNING, folks!

Within a few months.. there WILL be a PUBLIC OPTION.

Within a few years.. there WILL be SINGLE PAYER.

Yes

We

DID!!!

I think the hyper-partisan poster on the hyper-partisan website speaks for many of ObamaCare’s supporters.  Passage today would mark the beginning of a push for single payer.

Whatever the outcome today, real battle lines are being drawn over this country’s future.  Americans will soon most likely have to choose sides.  Shame on all of us for letting this country get so polarized.

Barack Obama ran on the promise of being a post-partisan President.   It was a campaign promise designed to lure in independents.  It worked.

Democrats are counting on the public “moving on” once the vote is cast today.  I fear that won’t be possible this time.  The left is obsessed with control, the rest of us just want to be left alone to deal with our affairs.

Nowhere in history has it been pleasant when those two dynamics clashed.  Nowhere.

    Races are won by turnout. You can be damn guaranteed the Democrats are filling up buses and mini-vans suitable now to get their seniors to the polls, they’re on the cellphone rousting authorities personnel and union members, and they’re making positive their dead have their vote counted much too. They’re not lying along.
