red states rule

Talk about the height of arrogance
snip
I guarantee it's going to be a close election because the economy is not where it wants to be and even though I believe all the choices we've made have been the right ones, we're still going through difficult circumstances. That means people who may be sympathetic to my point of view still kind of feel like, yeah, but it still hasn't gotten done yet. This is going to be a close election and a very important one for the American people. The thing I hope the most is that everyone is going to be paying close attention to the debate that takes place because it could determine not just what happens over the next four years, but what'll happen over the next 20 or 30 years.

Remember the outrage from the left and liberal media when Pres Bush said he could not think of mistake he made in his first term?
Here are some of the choices Obama has made that have turned out to be wrong. The list is VERY long
The choice to appoint multiple tax cheats (http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-4908247-503544.html) to your cabinet, including your current Treasury Secretary?
The choice to keep insisting on (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/09/20/ap/politics/main20109066.shtml) closing the Guantanamo Bay detention facility, even though the public opposes this prospect -- which was repeatedly blocked by a Democratic Congress?
The choice to throw a lavish birthday party (http://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2011/08/05/unreal_the_obama_conga) for yourself, replete with a barefoot Conga line through the White House, as the threat of a national credit downgrade cast a shadow over the country.
The choice to file a lawsuit (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/07/06/justice-department-file-suit-arizona-early-tuesday/) against Arizona's law that authorizes state and local officials to help the federal government fulfill its woefully unfulfilled responsibilities -- and that your Attorney General admitted he'd never read (http://www.politico.com/blogs/joshgerstein/0510/Holder_hasnt_read_Ariz_immigration_bill.html), even as he publicly denounced it.
The choice to include two provisions -- 1099 reform (http://thehill.com/blogs/healthwatch/taxes-and-fees/156171-obama-lifts-1099-business-reporting-burden) and the CLASS Act (http://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2011/10/17/incoherence_obama_issues_veto_threat_on_class_act_ repeal) -- in your unpopular healthcare bill that are so unaffordable and unworkable that your own administration has since abandoned them.
The choice of your Justice Department to file a lawsuit (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVonk_OqEUU) to overturn a small North Carolina town's democratically-enacted decision to eliminate party identifications from municipal election ballots, arguing that African-Americans need "D" and "R" labels to determine whom to support.
The choice to sell your failed $800 Billion "stimulus" package as a means to spur "shovel ready" projects -- projects you later joked (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVonk_OqEUU) weren't quite so shovel ready after all.
The choice to appoint a self-described "Communist" who signed a 9/11 Truther petition (http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2009/09/controversial-obama-administration-official-denies-being-part-of-911-truther-movement-apologizes-for/) as your "Green Jobs Czar."
The choice to bow to union demands and cancel a successful inner-city school choice program (http://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2011/03/30/house_to_vote_on_dc_school_vouchers_program_today_-_update_bill_passes), despite its soaring graduation rates, improved reading scores, cost effectiveness, and overwhelming parental satisfaction.
The choice to alienate our greatest ally -- Great Britain -- by rudely disposing of (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/barackobama/4623148/Barack-Obama-sends-bust-of-Winston-Churchill-on-its-way-back-to-Britain.html) a Winston Churchill bust, bestowing the Queen with an iPod filled with your own speeches (http://hotair.com/archives/2009/04/01/confirmed-queens-ipod-includes-obamas-speeches/), giving the former Prime Minister a gift that literally did not work (http://articles.nydailynews.com/2009-03-06/news/17918273_1_mr-obama-prime-minister-brown-michelle-obama) on his own soil, and signaling neutrality (http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/tobyyoung/100027397/et-tu-barack-america-betrays-britain-in-her-hour-of-need/)over the Falkland Islands.
