Who Elected These Guys?

August 1st, 2011

The answer has been clear for months. From The American Audacity:

"We didn't vote in 2010 and we felt good teaching our President and party a lesson. We will pay for this Tea Party revolution for decades to come. We gave the GOP and Tea Party full control of the US House and the majority of the State legislatures and governorships. Now the GOP can force their Voter ID disenfranchisement laws and supply side economics down our throats with a serving of cultural warrior demagoguery as a desert. We have no one to blame but ourselves for our own lack of participation in electing our brand of government in 2010. As for the President, the professional left opposition left him out to dry in 2010 and now they want him to kowtow to them on his knees. Fat Chance of that in the near future."

The same liberal Americans who refused to vote are pushing for the "14th Amendment Solution." Forget the fact that that would lead to months of protracted legal wrangling and a guaranteed impeachment of the President by the House. This may in fact be what this "crisis' has been about all along. Others from this bunch are actively promoting a primary challenge to Obama in 2012. The Kennedy challenge against Carter very nearly ensured the election of Reagan, but who cares.

It's long past time for the American Left to take some more responsibility for the current disaster.
