WHY DEFEAT MEANS VICTORY!

As we approach the US Mid Terms tomorrow, and judgement is about to be cast on The One, the BBC seems to have gone almost hysterical as it adopts denial mode and nowhere was this more evident than here on BBC Radio with an “interview” with Thomas Mann of the leftist pro-Democrat Brookings Institute. Go to 1hours17mins and have yourself a laugh. First question “Is it Obama’s fault that so many Americans are disappointed in him”? Answer No! -and then it just gets worse, totally surreal. Tomorrow means little, Obama can win in 2012, we need more stimulus! You could NOT make this one-sided dross up. I know Seamus McKee the BBC interviewer and he should be ashamed of himself for participating in this overt damage limitation exercise on behalf of Obama’s cheer-leaders in the rancid local BBC.

    Well it seems al beeb is setting itself up for bitter disappointment tomorrow IF the elections go the way everyone has been predicting they will be going.

    I really cant wait for Wednesday morning and watching al been trying to pick the pieces up, telling people it never saw the humiliation dumped on Barry The Magnificent coming!

    Of course, if the elections dont go to plan then we will never hear the end of the Messiah’s awesomeness!

    Lets hope things work out how they are supposed to work out and that the massive election fraud being carried out by the Democrats useful fools doesnt steal too many seats away!

    Other BBC lines ready for use;

    But O’Donnell *insert blatant witch reference* lost in Delaware.

    Incumbants always lose big in mid-terms, see Clinton 1994 and Reagan in 1982.

    Obama still likely to win in 2012.

    A mixed night for Republicans as they don’t win the senate.

    Democrats couldn’t enthuse the base, but they’ll be back in 2012.

    The success of National Healthcare wasn’t promoted enough!

    Republicans played on fears of immigration.

    ad nauseum

      I would add that Obama will claim that the poor deluded Americans simply don’t understand things properly yet.

      And then he will fly off to Indonesia.   (Shame he never stayed there in the first place.)

    We can but hope these excuses are needed. If they are it could well mark the beginning of the fightback against those who have tried to force their unreal vision of the world upon us.
    I have always been confident that reality will assert itself in the end.
    A victory in the US will hearten us all.

    Desparate.

    BBC Breakfast interviewed Bonnie Greer this morning. Phrases used were “bad mid-terms are usual but Presidents rally”, lots of “Obama unpopularity due to economic situation he inherited”. He was “change desperately needed”. Bill Turball wades in with “Obama is unlucky.”

    The TEA party got quickly dismissed as 19th century thinking. And so on. This was a full on defence of Obama as President with no disguise

      Yes but the difference was Clinton moved to the centre in US politics, Barry can’t do that, it’s not in his ‘Muslim’ genes.

      Bonnie Greer?  They just had to find a black person to ram home that racial angle.  I haven’t even voted yet this morning and I’m already a racist again, I guess.

        Yes. The sooner you accept that obvious truth, David, the sooner you can start to heal.

        Maybe in one of those re-education camps that the POTUS’ good chum (Shhhhhhh !!) Bill Ayers was proposing. The ones with the unfortunate quantities of death for unbelievers already factored in.

    I watched a programme on BBC2 yesterday, Brillo was wandering around the US taking every opportunity to bash the Tea Party.
    Lumping in racist organisations, reminding the viewer constantly that xxxx was once an alcoholic and just putting little digs in everywhere. It really was a lesson in bias.
    Brillo pointed out that there are opinionated news channels in the US – the manner in which he showed their bias, he showed the BBC’s perfectly.
    I feel that as we have a new Government here and there could be a major upset in the US, the BBC have thrown caution to the wind and no longer even bother to be subtle, they obviously think the public is with them.

    All true (and wasn’t James Naughtie’s vile, pompous and inelegant song of praise to the Obamamessiah nauseating?), but we should remember…

    Nobody cares what the BBC says or thinks. Nobody trusts it. Most people regard it as a leftist, self-serving racket run by a privileged class that is just below politicians in the hate stakes..

    All that remains to do is kill the licence tax…. and sooner or later, that will happen.

    Alas,  we can never have a real citizen revolution here,  the main parties have an armlock on things – and we have no real oportunity to challenge the incumbents of these parties.  The real message of the election in the US is that citizens like David Preiser have told BOTH parties – “Enough already!!!”.  Republican candidates have been forced back to the straight and narrow on economic and fiscal policy – or if their record has been egregious they have been supplanted in the primaries.

    My MP is Zac Goldsmith.  An eco-extremist. Yes,  I could vote Liberal to get him out – but that is just as bad,  I really could not stand Susan Kramer or – even worse – the previous Liberal around here, Jenny Tonge.   No other party had or has a realistic chance in this constituency.  So my choice is to have a Liberal – or a Liberal dressed up as a Tory.  There is no oportunity for anyone to stand against Zac Goldsmith, or his ilk, in a Tory primary.

    In this extended interview in the US from Powerline,  Dan Hannan argues that it is the primaries that still leave the US populace with real power to get rid of apparatchiks in their own party.

    ……………….

    My hope against hope is that Christine O’Donnell wins in Delaware.  It would be the ultimate triumph of the citizenry against the party machines.   This woman whom the BBC derides as a total kook comes across to me as a fairly serious and straightforward young woman with the correct set of views on POLICY and duty to listen to the electorate.  As Palin might say – with a “servant’s heart”.  She booked a final-days set of extended ads on a local TV station – guess what,  the station failed to run it as planned.  But the result has been that many more people have tuned on on the net to watch it.

    And if O’Donnell does not win – at least Joe Miller in Alaska looks as if he might well beat the “hereditary” Murkowsky.  A key Senate race that the BBC has largely ignored.  Much easier to smear ODonnell,  of course.

    • David Preiser (USA) says:

      There is a possibilty in Britain to force change in your political parties from the bottom up, but only if you can get rid of the ability of Party leadership to parachute someone in to a safe seat and select the potential candidates.  In the US, anyone who gets enough signatures can get on a ballot and join the contest for the nomination of one Party or another, and leadership has no say in the matter.

      Forget about O’Donnell.  There are a number of better examples of the potential victory of citizens over elite rulers out there, from Arizona to Nevada to Colorado to Florida.  Not that you’d know about any of that from BBC reporting.

        David,  I agree that O’Donnell should not be the focus.  Or rather – the obsession at the BBC.   But I would dearly love to see her win – if only to spite the BBC !

        I fear there is NIL chance of reform in the UK to allow the citizenry to choose directly who their constituency party nominee should be.  The whole damn system is locked down solid. 

        For example – I imagine most UKIP candidates are more truly Tory than the Tories they fight against.  But they have nil chance of supplanting the pseudo-Tories in a Tory primary for each constituency.  The parties here prattle on about electoral reform,  but that would be the only reform that really mattered,  that would really start to return a semblance of power to “We, the People”.

          Sure, if she ends up being Republican Senator No. 61, I’ll laugh as loudly as anyone else.  But she’s only running against a seat formerly held by Biden, and not against an actual long-term mandarin, so I don’t see her as any kind of benchmark or anything of the sort.

          Rubio, Angle, Miller, West, Snyder (for Michigan Governor), and Corbett (for Pennsylvania Governor) would be more meaningful.  Or even the Republican African-American woman running for Congress in Tennessee, Charlotte Bergmann.

    One of the features in US politics these past couple of years has been the vile and ignorant attacks on women candidates as women.  It started with the sliming of Palin – and the BBC was up to its neck in it then,  is still up to its neck in it with O’Donnell especially.  

    When it suits – the BBC is “feminist” – indeed over-the-top with extreme feminism.  But in the case of Republican women candidates,  the BBC is down there in the gutter.

    Just how much does it cost to send a really ignorant, USA hating beeboid to “report” on America?  There’s Mardell, Ghattas, Naughtie, all vying with one another for the title of most foolish one.  Americans would laugh themselves silly to see and hear such utter crap.

      Well, this is the second-most important election in human history, so no expense is spared.  I think I’ve counted 10 separate Beeboids doing on-air reports, and that’s not including Andrew Neil’s jaunt.  And they’re all telling the same story.  Agenda?  What agenda?

      They all live here and most are paid by BBC Worldwide.  It’s only when the BBC flies over the legions for special events that it comes out of the license fee.  I’m trying to get a headcount today.

      Not including the staff already stationed here, I’ve counted seven other Beeboids here for the election, and that’s not including Andrew Neil’s own special report.

        David

        See my post on the other thread where you gave ful details of the US operation.

        BBC Worldwide makes its money selling programmes made in the UK – and paid for by us.  All its profits ought to be remitted back to the BBC – to keep the licence fee down.

        But no – they’d prefer to set up their stupid US channel which makes nil profit,  draining funds from BBC Worldwide and therefore from us.
