Break from the folly


Thanks to vacations and funerals, the reckless pace of hard-left social engineering has slowed to a crawl in the past few weeks.
But something very significant occurred over the summer. Raised voices from the third of Americans who worship Obama and the third who can’t stand his politics have awoken the middle third. The herd has picked up the scent. No longer is Obama the post-partisan, post-racial, cool guy who represents hope and change. He’s been exposed as just another platitudinous power grabber.
The left has overreached. They have shown their hand. Government health care and manmade global warming never were about lowering costs and fixing things that need attention; they have always been about central government control. And the vast majority of Americans hate the notion of Washington judging them, overtaxing them and interfering in their lives.
And maybe the best part of the summer break has been that the mainstream media no longer directs what we see and hear. Radio, Internet and ordinary people speaking up in public have worked around the filters.
Enjoy the break, because the folly will restart soon enough.
