Thought Stalled
You’d think this would embarrass the lefties, when our Lord Chimpy in his Simian Greatness shows their leaders to be shallow, unimaginative charlatans and their followers, ultimately, gullible saps, by playing with the shiny object of a message that has them so entranced. Think Progress indeed:
Bush: If I ran for President, I’d be an ‘agent of change.’
In an interview with NBC aired today, President Bush dismissed the notion that presidential candidates’ messages of “change” are a rebuke of his presidency. Bush said he would do the same right now if he were one of them:Q: Do you see this message of change as anything other than a rejection of your presidency?
BUSH: No, listen. If you’re running for office, you can’t run for office and not say ‘I am an agent of change.’ It’s just American politics. If I were running for office at this point, I’d be saying, ‘Vote for me. I’m gonna be an agent of change.’
(Pongid vid didn’t copy, but you’ll find it at the “Lancelot” link above … ha ha ha, sorry, couldn’t resist)
UPDATE: Tim Grieve notes that Bush 41 thought differently than his son. At the Republican National Convention in 1988, George H.W. Bush said:
Now, after two great terms, a switch will be made. But when you have to change horses in midstream, doesn’t it make sense to switch to one who’s going the same way?
Partisan politics, a monkey puzzle inducing simian-like rage, derision among higher primates of the left (see TP comments). All that progressive thinking must be taxing. Ha ha … sorry, I’m cracking myself up.

What the left don’t get is that all politicians make pie-in-the-sky promises to get elected. The trick is to figure out which of those promises are doable, and which ones the politician will actually try to accomplish.

But Rebecca, with just a modicum of thought, one might, just might, notice the contradictions involved in these promises. When Hillary seeks $70 billion to “stimulate” the economy, which means that she is taking investment capital away from those who actually produce the wealth being taxed, and then promises this money to the poor and other “victims,” she is offering a contradiction. No one says anything. The media just shows pictures of Hillary with lots of “adorable” little illegal aliens, and other blah, blah, blah.
I don’t know who’s more worthless: the politicians or the media who follow them to “report” to us.
(As usual, Jules, you are exempt from any grousing about media types. If more were like you, perhaps we wouldn’t be in quite such bad shape. Kiss kiss.)
