Yes his skit was interesting and it is drawing much attention. People will want to see what it is all about and below is what they will hear. Clint Eastwood style, he says it like it is
We — we own this country. We — we own it.
It is not you owning it, and not politicians owning it. Politicians are employees of ours.*And — so — they are just going to come around and beg for votes every few years. It is the same old deal. But I just think it is important that you realize , that you’re the best in the world. Whether you are a Democrat or Republican or whether you’re libertarian or whatever, you are the best. And we should not ever forget that.
And when somebody does not do the job, we got to let them go.
Republican house has sent bills (pleural) to the Democratic Senate which has refused to consider. Not sure how much clearer it could be!
Have they been successful in cutting spending? Yes, or no?
No, they have failed.
Do they have an excuse? Yes, they do.
Has Obama been successful in fixing the economy?
No, he has not.
Does he have an excuse? Yes, he has the same excuse as the Republican House.
It is not complicated.
Failure is failure, and excuses are for losers. When you send bills to Senate which are designed to fail, it makes it even worse, because basically you are just playing games at other people's expense.

Okay, I get it. It's the Democratic Senate that that are the obstructionists.. Thanks for clearing that up.

Yes, them too. Both chambers do nothing but obstruct and sabotage everyone else. It's pathetic. Mcconnell actually blurted it out loud: their #1 priority is to make Obama fail. The welfare of the Nation can take a back seat when these people play their pathetic power games.

So please do, keep spreading it.
Thank you Clint Eastwood for coming.
Now we get to see the Ken and Barbie crowd. I have to check to see who is speaking, I am sure it will be just democratic talking points and not much to talk about.
The Republicans never saidd one word about accepting any responsibility for failed policies. They think that everyone is stupid enough not to see the elephants in the room and to believe that 2000-2008 never happened.
They do not discuss foreign policy, climate change, growing poverty, failing infrastructure, social issues, etc. and with very good reason. These issues would entail mentioning the killing of bin Laden, science, policies that favor the rich and the fact that our infrastructure is crumbling, but it might put people to work if we begin fixing it.

You misread this. Most of us know what complete a-holes the GOP has been through the toughest economic times of our lives. If you think we are going to turn on Obama and give those d-bags the prize, you are wearing your magic underwear too tight.
Jonathan Martin in Politico has identified what he thinks is a subtle shift in the RYAN/romney attack, introduced at the RNC.
Instead of hammering Obama, which only works with the base, they will express how DISAPPOINTED they are in Obama, and try to peel off independents, who have proved to be immune to the "Obama is a Kenyan Socialist" crapola, and are stubbornly hanging tough for Obama in the polls:
It goes like this: "Gee, ya know what? We were ALL inspired by Obama. Hell, some of us even VOTED for him. We hoped and prayed he would succeed, for the sake of the nation. But, Obama failed to live up to his promise. It's OK to make a change"
That RYAN/romney are advocating a "change" back to the policies that got us into this mess? Never mind that!
That RYAN/Romney are IGNORING the actual history, that the GOP opposed and thwarted Obama with all their might from Day One? Never mind that either!!!
That it is dishonest, disingenuous, and insidious??? Never mind!!!
The sad part is, Martin thinks it just might work!
Yep.
The GOP "strategy" in a nutshell:
"Our answer for this horrible lingering recession brought on by deregulation, tax cuts, and trickle-down is to reinstate deregulation, tax cuts, and trickle-down."
