| 70. Great Pics. But How About Today??? |
|
Bush and his supporters had numerous pro war rallies which manufactured a right wing consensus. Today, the far right continues to have many anti-Obama rallies which continue to convince people tha their side has the truth.
But, in contrast with your photos, where are the pro-Obama rallies today?
When are the Democrats going to use the same tactics employed by the reichsters? When are we going to see rallies where people carry placards which say,
''THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA FOR CREATING NEARLY FIVE MILLION JOBS''
''THANK YOU FOR STOPPING OUR COMBAT ROLE IN IRAQ''
''THANK YOU FOR ENDING THE REPUBLICAN CREATED RECESSION''
''THANK YOU FOR RESTORING THE GOOD IMAGE THE USA ENJOYS WORLD WIDE''
''THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS TO BRING PEACE AND JUSTICE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD''
''THANK YOU FOR MAKING THE TAX SYSTEM MORE EQUITABLE''
I have not seen so much as one rally where people openly praise the president for his success. Not one. Yet, we see plenty of right wing malcontents naking up stories that the USA is worse off under Obama. So why don't the Democrats stopped sitting on their hands and swing back with the truth?
If the Dems continue their policy of passivity and fear of Republican lies, expect a big right wing victory in November. Like it or not, this will be the inevitable consequence of the party's policy of continued passivity.
