The President's Speech In Kansas Last Week: Idiologically Scary

So President Obama wants to double down on policies and strategies that have been miserable failures? Not good folks. See Heritage's analysis here:

Step back from the political spin for a moment and consider, as objectively as possible, the extent to which his policies have worked. Do we really want him to double down on them in another term? Rhetoric won him his first term. Now it's time for his results (or lack of same) to stand on their merit and be the measuring stick for justifying a second term.

We need action, not flowery smart-sounding speeches. Time to stop blaming other people and take responsibility for one's record, especially when we consider he had FULL control to do anything he wanted his first two years. In fact, he did exactly what he wanted (running over Republican opposition in the process), all the while PROMISING that it would fix the problems we have. We need to think for ourselves whether more of this will be good for us irrespective of how smart President Obama looks and sounds. Results (or lack of same) MATTER!!!

Time to get realistic about the progressive approach to fixing these problems. We let him try. He failed, period!
