Although some continue to demonize the TEA [Taxed Enough Already] Party Movement generically {The Education of Ted

Cruz and Karl Rove: Republicans Walked Into Obama's Trap and NBC's Chuck Todd Blasts Cruz, Palin: 'What Planet Are You Guys Living On?!'} and for alleged-racism {MSNBC ANALYST: CONFEDERATE FLAG AT PROTEST 'THREAT' TO OBAMA and Sharpton: Cruz Responsible for Confederate Flag at Million Vet March and Matthews: 'Hatred,' Racism Motivates GOP Opposition To Obama and Politico's Simon: Drown Boehner, Cruz to Save America and Be Careful What You Wish For, David Frum and Carl Bernstein: House Republicans Acting Like Segregationists}, some feel compelled to provide somewhat gratuitous recognition of its potency and relevance {Brit Hume: Tea Party Arose from GOP Establishment Failure to Restrain Government Spending and Douthat Defends the Tea Party}. Economic CONFIDENCE was not RESTORED, for the Chinese downgraded the US CREDIT RATING and China Wants to Dump the Dollar; meanwhile DEBT became UNLIMITED! Politically, amidst a typical political back-and-forth {MCCAIN ON GOHMERT: 'NO INTELLIGENCE' and gohmert-fires-back-on-Syria; McCain-would-be-better-off-having-no-intelligence}, the reflex reaction to GOP-failure {Hannity: Could Be Time for Conservative Third Party and HANNITY, PALIN DISCUSS POSSIBLE THIRD PARTY} must be opposed, for its preferable to reform from within while recognizing the Wall St. vs. Main St. split {Business Frustrated With GOP}. And when Coulter Criticized Liz Cheney, GOP 'Shysters' Responsible For Election Losses, she forgets that Enzi has supported enhanced taxation [via Internet], isnt as muscular on Foreign Policy as desired, and isnt as articulate [planned and spontaneous] as is Liz [who is a star, despite the fishing kerfuffle]. Thus, GOP should capitalize on the fact that ANTI-INCUMBENT SENTIMENT AT RECORD HIGH by injecting populist/libertarian policies. Particularly daunting is the fact that Obama Romneyized the Republicans, even as allies such as the Boston Globe admit Obama Has Failed at Bipartisanship; as noted in an overview {5 Things Lost, 5 Things Won by GOP in Budget/Debt Fight}, BHO has been exposed as venal {e.g., NPR Admits: 'They're Begging Markets to React'}, an approach that now characterizes the Dems {Rep. Tom Price: Dems Content With 'Fiscal Ruin'}. Continuing his bombast, he is trying to shut-out competing commentary {OBAMA: WE NEED TO STOP FOCUSING ON BLOGGERS} as the Immigration/Immunity battle returns; thus, inasmuch as Boehner violated the Hastert Rule, the following reassurance is empty {GOP REP: BOEHNER PROMISED NO CONFERENCE ON SENATE IMMIGRATION BILL}. Media-wise, despite customary SLANT {Media Cover Shutdown Victims over ObamaCare Victims 100:1 and Networks blamed Republicans in 41 stories -- 0 for Dems and 'OBJECTIVE' MEDIA CELEBRATE OBAMA SHUTDOWN VICTORY and CNN: Hearing roar of federal government coming to life and 'Aren't You Embarrassed!?': CNN Anchor Bullies Tea Party Supporter}, viewership continues to support FNC {Shutdown Ratings: CNN Sinks to Third; Fox Dominates and Hasselbeck Lifts 'Fox & Friends' By Double Digits and Nielsen Confirms Megyn Kelly Ratings Surge}. Indeed, it is sad that known-flaws in ObamaCare were left unreported by BHO-acolytes {Ezra Klein Knew ObamaCare Site Had Problems Weeks Before Launch}, have damaged the American Psyche {On ObamaCare and the Rise of Part-Time Employment}, have prompted abandonment by OBAMAs HOMETOWN NEWSPAPER, and have even prompted the NYT's Krugman to Celebrate Finding One ObamaCare Enrollee while a concomitant (and sad) realization emerged within the same entity {NYT: ObamaCare Collapse 'Has Deeply Embarrassed' White House}.

Undeniably, the exchanges are worse than even the critics imagined and the Aetna CEO Predicted ObamaCare IT Failures until 2017. Some readers have queried, Sklaroff, where are you GOING with all these hyperlinks? Why not just sayit-straight! What are you trying to achieve? Who cares about all this documentation? Its TOO MUCH! The goal is to subject ideas/plans being promulgated to scrutiny by those who read these compilations. For example, aggregating the last two blasts, one can surmise that political activism has been sparked, an event that may risk short-term angst among establishment-GOP defendersbut which promises rejuvenation of leadership that heretofore has too-often become closely-aligned with shadow-Dems. What some falsely perceive as inapposite forces [e.g., business/labor] must be exposed [as per efforts of Guzzardi, over the past half-decade], and those who claim to be potential standard-bearers must also be vetted to ensure they do not support Buchanans view of foreign policy [isolation rather than muscular]; the intent is to support those who are sufficiently selfless to recognize the dangers to the Constitution that BHO is implementing, and to ID a leader who will demonstrate the courage exhibited by Cruz.

This is a blessing [50KW broadcast-strength] and a curse [WPHT is the flagship radio station of MLB's Philadelphia Phillies], for pre-emption due to day-games impedes.
