Obama's chump "change"

By Matt Barber

"So much for that whole "hopey-changey" thing; cute while it lasted, but the American people — like Bernie Madoff investors — now realize they've been duped. "Change" for the mere sake of change is simply chump change. The seismic political shift that occurred in Massachusetts Tuesday night can't be overstated. Obama's Marxist, secular-humanist agenda — shared by Pelosi, Reid and the rest of the elitist, Eurocentric left — just ain't gonna fly in the good ole' USA. Not even in liberal Massachusetts. (I'm a right-wing "redneck," you say? Well, tough tea party!)

The delicious irony is that this senate contest between Republican victor Scott Brown and Democrat Martha Coakley was for the late Ted Kennedy's seat ("the people's seat"). Old Teddy's baby, of course, was socialized medicine, and Brown's election may well force both Teddy's and Obama's signature issue off the duo's Faux-topian "bridge to nowhere." (Let's call it "Mary Jo's revenge.")

Those of us who prayed for a miracle to derail this ObamaCare monstrosity — passage of which seemed a foregone conclusion just weeks ago — have witnessed, along with the rest of the world, perhaps the greatest political upset in American history. It's just that: a miracle. (God really does have a sense of humor, doesn't he?) Now, to Scott Brown: Many social conservatives (of which I'm one) have complained that the senator-elect is woefully flawed on social issues — particularly abortion. This is true."
