IN CASE YOU ONLY WATCH GRUBERS ON MSNBC (lowest rated station): Last November the American voters overwhelmingly rejected the idiot named obama, and MANDATED the Republicans to stop him IMMEDIATELY. It was a landslide election. Happy Days are here in another week.

The Kenyan Chimp spoke the truth once in 2014. He said the mid-term elections were all about his policies. Yes they were, Little Nitwit, yes they were... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote of the year Power Line by Scott Johnson Among the year-end lists compiled this year I have yet to see one that captures the quote of the year. Confining consideration to active politicians, I think that President Obama walks away with the honors this year. Against all the odds in the run-up to the midterm elections in November, Obama said something useful and, even more improbably, something true (video below). In his speech at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management on October 2<span style="font-size:1.3em;"> — a speech larded with misleading factoids and excuses and falsehoods touting his record on the economy (including Obamacare) at Castroite length (White House text here) — Obama said: “Now, I am not on the ballot this fall. Michelle is pretty happy about that. But make no mistake: These policies are on the ballot — every single one of them.” </span> With his approval substantially underwater, Obama thus reminded the voters in the sixth year of his presidency that this was their last chance to express their disapproval of him. What were Obama and his strategists thinking? Obama’s statement undermined the campaigns of Democratic Senate candidates including Mark Pryor, Kay Hagan, and Alison Lundergan Grimes, each of whom ardently advocated the proposition that the midterm elections were not about Obama or his policies.<span style="font-size:1.3em;">Obama stepped forward to step on their theme and proclaim: It’s all about me! </span>
