Happy Anniversary, Obama!

And how better to celebrate it than with Scott Brown's win!

Too bad Obama's sore about it...but, hey, that's what happens when you hit your 1st anniversary - it means the Honeymoon ended awhile ago! I wouldn't be pleased either if it meant the end of the thing (healthcare) that I've staked my whole Presidency on. Kind of confused why he's surprised though... Well, then again, this was the same guy who was surprised by the Tea Party people protesting taxes and the increasing size of government.

Other liberals seem to be sore about it as well. Poor Barney Frank can't play with the big boys, so it's time to change the rules of the filibuster. Odd how he didn't seem to have a problem when the liberals had their 60 member supermajority...

John Kerry had his feathers ruffled over "bullying and threats" and "intimidation tactics". Does anyone really listen to this guy anymore?

Even Keith Olbermann had words of love for Scott Brown. Correct me if I'm wrong, Mr Olbermann, but isn't that "hate speech"? You'd be among the first to call for a conservative talk show host to step down if they had said the exact same thing about about a liberal candidate.

The liberal facebookers were also a bit steemed:
"Last night it was reported that the GOP has a good shot at getting the seat up in Mass. tonight and breaking the fillabuster(sp). Related, the average stock for the healthcare companies shot up today. Makes you realize who REALLY wins..."

Those who REALLY won due to Scott Brown's senate race:

People who work hard to pay for things important to them, like health care.
People who don't think they need health care and don't want to be forced to buy it.
People who don't think health care is a "right".
People who deserve more actual transparency in government.
People who don't want lifelong governmental control forced down their throats.


I hope this is a wake-up call for those in Washington running again in 2010. This race was supposed to be a shoe-in for the Democrat. Don't know about you, but I can't wait for 2010 if this is a sign of what is coming next.

Welcome back Hazaa. I've missed your posts. You're so right about who won last night, ordinary Americans who want government off their backs. I can barely wait for November and a replay of last night across the country.

Thank you. :)

And I couldn't agree more.
