If Obama is going to be such a "push over," why did so many serious Republican presidential "heavyweights" decide to sit this one out in favor of 2016?We Need a Second Party
THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN
February 11, 2012
WATCHING the Republican Party struggling to agree on a presidential candidate, one wonders whether the G.O.P. shouldn’t just sit this election out — just give 2012 a pass.
You know how in Scrabble sometimes you look at your seven letters and you’ve got only vowels that spell nothing? What do you do? You go back to the pile. You throw your letters back and hope to pick up better ones to work with. That’s what Republican primary voters seem to be doing. They just keep going back to the pile but still coming up with only vowels that spell nothing .....
Until the G.O.P. stops being radical and returns to being conservative, it won’t provide what the country needs most now — competition — competition with Democrats on the issues that will determine whether we thrive in the 21st century. We need to hear conservative fiscal policies, energy policies, immigration policies and public-private partnership concepts — not radical ones. Would somebody please restore our second party? The country is starved for a grown-up debate.

Did I miss Obama landing on an aircraft carrier in a flight suit, with a banner saying "Mission Accomplished"?
If he were honest, his slogan would be "Sorry I fucked up the hope and change. Let me try again."
Which is it?
Obama can't run on his record or Obama is politicizing killing Osama bin Laden?

I see Arianna Huffington is getting even over his joke at her expense at the dinner the other night.

The message: incumbent Obama is a firewall against a return to the "failed" foreign, social and economic policies of the George W. Bush administration, which are now embodied by presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney.
Getting bin Laden is not a record, it's a factoid. And if that's what he's running on, it's a loser.
But it looks like he's running against George W. Bush. Again.

A "record" always has good and bad items. Obama has a few checks in the "good" column: Killing Bin Laden, following the Bush plan to exit Iraq. Pretty much all of the rest of his record falls in the "bad" column in my opinion....................
