“Unless things change and Obama can run on accomplishments, he will have to kill Romney,” said a prominent Democratic strategist aligned with the White House.
Kinder and gentler nation.
This is what a Liberati means when they say we have to control discourse. They mean everyone except them.
I’m not so much shocked at the irony, I’m shocked anyone is shocked.
Yawn — ever hear of Lee Atwater or Karl Rove? Ever hear of the GOP deciding they needed to destroy Obama in 2008? Of course Democratic strategists will sometimes say this — and Republicans say the same thing about their opponents. And even when it becomes public they do it anyway because it works. Note too what campaign they were studying: how Rove and Bush destroyed John Kerry personally when it was clear the country was willing to vote Bush out. It worked.

Whoa Nellie!
I resonate with ya. The point isn’t that campaigns use martial illustrations in allegory. The point is that Liberati the nation over hammered the Right after the shootings in Arizona.
And now….well, business as usual.
“prominent Democratic strategist aligned with the White House” translates to “third tier consultant whose company has done ads for either the 2008 campaign or some initiative”. He made the comment to some politico hack. And you’re comparing it to a graphic prepared and published by SarahPAC.
I still think there’s no place for that type of language in politics, but you’re comparing pretty different things. And for some reason you’re imputing the language to the president? Or something? Why is Obama up there?
And you’re comparing it to a graphic prepared and published by SarahPAC.
Well, kinda.
The graphic done by SarahPAC was really done by the Democrats in 2006. And before that, I’m sure many many organizations, both left and right, used the term targeting. So, to be fair, I’m comparing it to all of it.
And for some reason you’re imputing the language to the president? Or something? Why is Obama up there?
Because the President was the one with the ba’jingas to stand in front of a nation and lecture us on language that we ALL knew was being blamed on the right for that shooting. He KNOWS how that language is used; hell, he used it himself in Philly when he referenced knives, fights and guns.
My point is this: The Left acts all a flutter when the Right uses language that they feel is too rough. But when the Left uses it, it’s done in some sort of way that implies some allegorical nonsense.
Anyone remember articles like this one ?

It sure didn’t take the hypocrats long to go violent. I sure hope that nothing happens to any GOP candidates because President Obama and Co will be held responsible .
More nuggets from the beginning of the Obama administration . Does anyone wonder why no one listens to Obama anymore ? When everything you say is BS, eventually even your hardcore Obama Zombies stop listening .
Two years ago Democrats bragged that the Stimulus had ” saved or created 150,000 American jobs “. In that summer it would ” save or create ” 6,00,000 more jobs . And the Obama recovery plan would ” save or create three to four million jobs over the next two years. ”
How can President Obama control the argument when nobody cares about what he says? The man has devalued his word the same way Bernanke has defaced our currency .
