Those who voted President Obama into office allow people to treat him like a punk (I thought punk was softer than “little something that rhymes with switch”). It’s like we set this gentleman up.
The election next month to the Republicans is a referendum on the Obama White House. The governor race in Georgia is about jobs, the port of Savannah, education reform and Obamacare. Remember, the Republicans talked about Obama, his wife, his dead parents and his dog then wanted the White House to support funding for the deepening of the Savannah Port, which means thousands of jobs in this region. Hint: when you are going to need something from someone, you should be somewhat respectful.
Oh, the U.S. Senate race in Georgia is even better. GOP candidate David Perdue has declared that he is running against Barrack Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. If Perdue wins, he could be the deciding seat to control of the Senate and if the Republicans control the Senate and House, Obama will be impeached and could be removed from office. But, all you people who were crying tears of joy when Obama was elected are too busy to early vote.
In the recent Senate candidate debate in Perry, David Perdue and Michelle Nunn both showed that they are senatorial. After Herman Cain and Donald Trump, I get a little leery of confidant private sector guys seeking glory in government. Governing isn’t as easy as it looks. Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson get the same leeriness from the liberal activist side. Hey, any jackass can kick down a barn but it takes a carpenter to build one.
When I was a kid, I was impressed with Sam Nunn’s bumper sticker “a workhorse..not a show horse.” David Perdue should be playing a senator in the movies. He is a tall guy who knows how to wear a denim jacket like a cowboy….collar up, cowboy up. Can he relate to regular people?
Michelle Nunn seems professorial and puts me in the mind of Eleanor Roosevelt. We should remember that she is Sam Nunn’s daughter and when I worked on the Hill, Sam Nunn was a party of one—he had icon status in the game. The idea that she will be a puppet for the White House is silly political theater.
She seems to understand that both parties need adjusting and improvements can only come from Senators working together with their “dear colleagues.” Look, the House of Representatives has always been a rough bunch by design but the Senate is elegant and smooth. There will be nothing smooth about a junior Senator who thinks he is the Marlboro Man and who plans to constantly attack the sitting American president in a disrespectful manner. The next time I disrespect the office of the President will be the first time and I remember Nixon’s last days.
Oh, Mr. Perdue is a smart fellow and if I were he I would be doing just what he is doing. He can’t run against Michelle Nunn in the current climate because the Senate really needs a compassionate mother’s voice from Georgia to balance a delegation full of Dem and GOP dudes with too much macho testosterone coursing in their veins. Actually, Perdue could be a Trojan House. He seems friendly and nice but he just needs the keys to the gate. Nothing is new because I never thought that my congressman Austin Scott would be ghost to my community. But, his visits to certain areas is limited because the GOP doesn’t like it’s folks listening to others.
Bottomline: The Republicans are playing possum with Obama impeachment because they are discipline like that but they want to humiliate this president and his so-called supporters are standing idly around as the drama goes down. Obamacrats might be the real punks but it’s not too late to spoil the haters’ plans.
