    Even as he (Obama) continues his free-fall slide down the slopes of popularity, he is preparing for round number ?? [you name the number] in an attempt to get this unpopular health-care bill passed, again.

    Either he doesn't care that ALL the polls are pointing him toward being a one-term president, or, he knows something that those of us looking closely at this bill and his presidency have yet to grasp!?!

    What if Obama is holding a "pure straight flush" when it comes to passing of the health-care bill? If he were to pull this victory out-of-the-hat, so to speak, he would truly seal his legacy in the annuls of US History, and be the first president to beat-a-dead-horse to the finish line.

    This last minute political victory would more than likely assure Obama an elusive second-term; while at the same time slamming the door shut on the current Conservative popularity surge, and their push to regain the majority of Legislative seats in 2010...

    Is there still a spark of hope within Obama's mindset when it comes to the health-care bill, or, is he ready to fall on the sword, as he prepares to commit political suicide with this last ditch effort to get the bill through both the House and Senate?!

    You tell me... what do you see coming out of his last ditch effort to televise the bill proceedings?

    If Obama plans to show America that he and his party are willing to listen and negotiate with the GOP, and if the GOP continues to stonewall the President and his party, I believe that the tides of public opinion and popularity could provide enough momentum to push the pendulum back toward the Democrats camp.

    The real issue is this: , IMHO, Obama doesn't have to win this new round of health-care talks and negotiations. All he has to do is show that he was willing to do what he was accused of not doing [televising the proceedings and allowing input from the GOP], and if the GOP ends up defeating this bill, Obama could still come out the victor by showing America [on television] that the negativity of the GOP was the problem all along.

    The upcoming talks to revive and pass the near-death health-care bill will determine if Obama can pull out of his "downhill slide" and cross the finish line, a winner.

    Take a look at the article on Obama's popularity slide. It should be of concern to this president, but, as I said, a last minute victory, could change this poll in a heart-beat.

    Hey Paul, I thought you were gone for a while? Nice to see you here still.

    I just watched Coral Ridge Hour and they were presenting Obama's connections and what that meant for America. Tonight they spoke about Saul Alinkski. He was the radical socialist that heavily influenced Obama. Obama even taught his material in college. His biggest work was "Rules for Radicals" in which he teaches his followers how to win political battles using very nasty tactics. You will never guess who Alinski dedicated his book to?

    Lucifer

    Yes that is what was reported on this show and they even presented the introduction of the book where it was recorded in print.

    So we not only have flesh and blood (Obama) but we also have to wrestle against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

    We need to be in prayer everyday for our country.:thumbsup:

    ==The Dems have been trying to push this for I don't know how many years. They know that they have a short window of time in which they can push this through. That window closes in November and they know it. That is why this thing has been, and continues to be, rushed. That is why there is all the "panic" talk, trying to link healthcare to the national deficit which has actually been created by greedy and power hungry politicians in both parties. These people are dishonest and they no longer care who knows. It is all out in the open now. They are desperate to push their big government agenda and far too many Americans are following them like sheep following a wolf. The question is, where is that wolf leading the sheep? I think we all know. It is time for all Americans to wake up and see how the politicians in DC have messed up our country. Then we need to fire every last one of them, Democrat and Republican, and elect real public servants who will go to Washington and actually work for the people.


    ==It is far, far too early to start talking about Obama being a one or two term President. History, even recent history, clearly shows us how unpredictable this is. He could be re-elected with a landslide or he could lose Jimmy Carter style. At this point it is impossible to say which it will be. These polls are meaningless and nothing but more media manipulation. Getting everyone sturred up so they can sell their story.


    ==What do I see coming out of this? Nothing. My understanding is that President Obama and the Democrats already have a plan ready. The rest is show. Just more manipulation by our political leaders and the media.

    You Get a Resounding...

    A M E N !!!

    As I wrote, in a second post the other day, I haven't had the right timing to go on my book leave. It will happen, but, there are still a few health issues holding me in limbo. Just too many doctor appointments [still]. Must wait for the apointments to slow down, so I have the time to snuggle up to my Lap Top and just write...

    Thanks for your precious thoughts and prayers, my brother.
