fortunate guy president respond time
Man, is that guy fortunate! Fortunate to be able to be president at a time when he CAN respond without violating his principles.
years president agendas
Presidents generally do what they are good at in their first four years, then spend their second term responding to the agendas imposed upon them by events.
presidential political firsts
The typical presidential staff resents the vice-president even more than they do the first lady.
cutting president groups
When Obama's economic advisers - a greater group of schlemiels would be hard to find - warn that failure to raise the limit will trigger default and horrific consequences for the global economy, Republicans should reply that if this is so, tell it to your president and get him to approve the spending cuts along with the debt-limit increase.
political president campaigns
The greater informational levels of the voters, their decreasing inhibitions in expressing disagreement, and their greater preference for Jeffersonian direct involvement, all make the need for a 'permanent campaign' to sell a president's policies all the more crucial.
war average president
President Lyndon Johnson's administration was known for his War on Poverty. President Obama's will become notable for his War on Prosperity. We're speaking, of course, of Obama's plans to hike income taxes on the most wealthy 2 or 3 percent of the nation. He's not just raising the top rate to 39.6 percent; he's also disallowing about one-third of top earner's deductions, whether for state and local taxes, charitable contributions or mortgage interest. This is an effective hike in their taxes by an average of about 20 percent.

advance agenda aim bush candidate choose divide impunity incredibly kerry listen people questions striking taking united virtually voters whenever
In an incredibly striking contrast, Bush voters are united on virtually all the questions that divide the Kerry vote. So, Bush can advance his agenda with impunity while taking aim at Kerry voters who are antagonized by their candidate whenever he has to choose a position. If Kerry can get people to listen and think, Bush is toast.
ideas political voters
There is literally no such thing as an idea that cannot be expressed well and articulately to today's voters in thirty seconds.
politics misguided worst
More and more, the Democrats are not merely inconsistent, wrong and/or misguided - they are the worst of all possible things you can be in Washington: irrelevant.
political agendas sides
Yes' is a far more potent word than 'no' in American politics. By adopting the positions which animate the political agenda for the other side, one can disarm them and leave them sputtering with nothing to say.
I love Karl Rove. He elected Bush.
art mean sacrifice
Washington is a mean town where human sacrifice has been raised to an art form.
communication thinking views
Anybody who thinks that getting a communication from a voter in your district is spam - that guy is pork. Roast pork unless he changes his point of view.
