It is absolutely hilarious the uniform reactions I’m hearing from the Republican punditry. It’s almost like hearing a talking wind-up doll, pull the string and listen to some pissed off Rightie Wightie loud mouth regurgitate a line on how Obama failed to reach the lower class White vote. It usually comes out sounding something like this:

“While Obama’s speech was very ELOQUENT, he failed to change the minds of middle-class White people.”

Nothing TOO shocking, however let’s examine this a little closer.

Firstly, even the compliment is designed to be an insult. After the infamous Joe Biden debacle, in which Biden called Obama “articulate,” it became widely known to White Righties that African-American men see such comments as an attempt to put them in a second-class bracket (oh he speaks so well… for a black guy). By the way, articulate is the third word for eloquent in the thesaurus, This is not apples and oranges, especially since Republicans are so obsessive about semantics.

Secondly… Where do they get off thinking they know what middle and working class people are thinking?! Most of these Right-Wing Pundicrats have never suffered a day in their …

The degradation of the Presidential race may have finally bottomed out. While the media, eager to prove that it’s being “tough” on Obama, pounced on some remarks Obama’s pastor Rev. Wright made recently, the clever and daring politician fired back with a speech as daring as John F. Kennedy’s famous speech on religion in 1960, and, much to the surprise of many, he succeeded.

While Hillary Clinton managed to avoid addressing the fiery and naïve remarks made by campaign aide and former Vice Presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro, Obama attacked this issue head on. While it seems fairly irrelevant to me that Obama’s Pastor got angry at White America nearly 20 years ago, it was wise of the Illinois Senator to take swift and decisive action, as opposed to the slow and divisive tactic Hillary Clinton choose on her gender/race issue.

The decision to make a speech however, is only half the battle. Who could forget Romney’s speech on religion earlier this year that failed to energize his campaign? Romney could not reconcile his Mormon faith to the millions of evangelical voters and his momentum stalled, …

There is an uneasy tension in the air today. Anxiety, discomfort, even panic is on the minds of many, from the largest, most powerful financial houses right down to the lowliest blue collar family. It is a feeling that this great machine of ours, this United States of America, is perhaps on the verge of a total breakdown. From financial markets to the Presidential Race, times are tough.

Exaggeration? Well you tell me. The other day an NPR financial analyst sketched out a scenario where the American Dollar plunges out of control, thereby causing a meltdown in virtually ALL world markets. He stressed that the scenario was unlikely, however it was plausible. You know things are bad when the media begins to talk about the possibility of complete disaster! 6 months ago, no one dared say we were in a recession, 3 months ago, it was the “R-word” today it is reality, with even the likes of Greenspan and Bernanke using the word regularly. Even ol’ Bush claimed we weren’t in a recession last week, today admitted that the economy “is going through tough times”. UH OH! If …

As time passes, I am becoming increasingly convinced that Wall St. is not located in the bustling lower Manhattan financial district. I now believe that Wall St. is located in an exotic and happy place where candy cane light posts lead the way to the fantastic chocolate and marshmallow palace, a mere 2 miles walk from the realm of reality. What’s worse, ladies and gentleman, is that Wall St. appears to not represent the interests of the American People as well.

Today Ben “Edward II” Bernanke, our all knowing and all seeing Federal Reserve Chairman, announced a plan to inject liquidity into financial markets through a complex and intricate loaning plan, which will give capital to ailing financial markets. In addition they are playing with temporary reciprocal currency arrangements, which is an overly intelligent way of saying their playing around with loan agreements to other countries to make investment more enticing. You know, it’s about time they made temporary reciprocal currency arrangements more accessible to foreign nations, I sure know it will make my life better.

Forbes magazine is calling the Fed Chair “Super Ben” and Wall St., much to no …
