If you do not join the demand for co-dependent compliance – the media will ridicule you.  It has always been thus.    It’s just another angle of Alinsky Tacticians.     There are multiple ways to “Isolate” – “Ridicule” – “Demonize”…..

The destination is the goal.   A sailboat of evil constitution – headed to its home  port of wretched despair – will at times have to use a process of “tacking” left and right, to take advantage of a wind not directly at its rear.   But let that not blind you to the forward progress – toward the home port……

…… Only a fool would think such a manuever intends a change of course.   The destination is unchanged, it just takes a little longer when the Spinnaker is unable to be deployed.

WASHINGTON DC – In the span of one week, President Obama has gone from villifying Republicans in Congress to calling them “principled people who want what’s best for this country.”

Yes, he has wined them and dined them in private, and now his public rhetoric has done an about-face as well.

In his weekly address, Obama explains he’s been “reaching out to Republicans and Democrats to see if we can untangle some of the gridlock.”

“We had an open and honest conversation about critical issues like immigration reform and gun violence, and other areas where we can work together to move this country forward,” he said. “And next week, I’ll attend both the Democratic and Republican party meetings in the Capitol to continue those discussions.”

“…Making progress on these issues won’t be easy,” he said. “In the months ahead, there will be more contentious debate and honest disagreement between principled people who want what’s best for this country. But I still believe that compromise is possible.”

That’s a far cry from his address just last week, when he railed on Republicans for failing to cave in to his demand that revenue be included in a package to avert the sequester cuts and blamed them for the ensuing cuts.  (read more)
