The Flakey Instant Potato People ~ By John Kubicek

I don't know, maybe this column will take much more cerebral energy to comprehend than what I would normally write. Perhaps I am going the way of Glenn Beck, and asking people to study and think. But, if there is anything I can say that would be in any way positive these days, this would be it. You'll just have to actually think about what I'm saying today. Stay studious, and contemplate on this profound revelation.

The timeliness of the agenda being accomplished seems to be the big deal of the day. Why do you think that there was a “deadline” put on getting the health care reform through, even if by hook or crook? There was a reason why they wanted to jam the bill through, bypassing normal procedures to do so. It has to be for one of two (or both) reasons: 1) The Obama administration is bent on getting instant gratification, or 2) The Obama administration knows that their political base expects immediate results.

There is a good reason why I feel that President Obama could be a one term president.

It is not just because of his far left agenda.

Actually, it will be for a reason that very few people will understand, especially those in the left-wing state-controlled media. Hopefully, though, even those with a liberal bias will be able to grasp what I will explain today.

There should be no question about the demographics of Obama’s largest base of voters. We’re talking about age in this case. I can assure you that race, gender, or relationship orientation do not enter into my hypothesis. No, this rationalization deals completely with the generational expectations that we see in society today.

What I am positing today doesn’t include scientific research backing me up, though I suppose that I could probably request another wasteful grant to do a study with stimulus money. However, to be truthful, this is one of those cases where it only takes common sense to figure this out.

Society in general, but specifically the younger generations, expect immediate gratification. Let’s just take a quick look at some examples: The FAST FOOD industry, microwave-oven-ready meals, ATM machines, the internet, email… All examples of how everything in our lives revolves around how quickly things need to happen to be able to fit into our busy schedules. This is the no-brainer part of my theory.

The part of my theory that extends into politics, regarding immediate gratification, may be a little more difficult to elucidate. So, in order to make my point with clarity, let me start out with a simple example. Just yesterday, the University of Iowa announced that the coach of the Iowa men’s basketball team would be replaced.

While some of the sports pundits would say that it was because his coaching style didn’t attract crowds to the arena – boring and dull doesn’t sell tickets – others are saying that it was the horrendous win-loss record accumulated in the last three years since Todd Lichliter replaced Steve Alford. Coach Lichliter was given a mere three years to turn around a program that has had success in the past. Lichliter was hired for the reasons of hope and change. Players and fans were seeking something better than what we saw with Steve Alford as the head coach. Instead, things got drastically worse.

And to expand on the example just given, Coach Todd Lichliter was given just three years to accomplish what the fans and university was expecting. But, not only did attendance drop off to all new lows, the program actually deteriorated to the point where Iowa had the most losses ever in one season in his third year at the helm. Totally unacceptable to Hawkeye fans, to be sure. Believe me, fans expect quick results, and sometimes unrealistic. Fortunately for Iowa football coach Kirk Ferentz, everything went as planned. His program struggled in his first two years, but then began to take shape in his third year, and he has had great success ever since. Kind of reminds me of the eight years of the Ronald Reagan presidency.

When a presidential candidate promises hope and change, and the masses elect him in the hopes of change, that person must perform to expectations. But how soon?

'Generation Zero' and its impact on America ~ By Jerome Corsi

Jerome Corsi writes about the new documentary, "Generation Zero," produced by Citizens United head David N. Bossie and writer/director Stephen K. Bannon.

In writing "The Obama Nation," I have to agree with "Generation Zero"'s indictment of President Obama as a far-left radical trained as a community organizer in the Saul Alinsky model.


But in writing "America for Sale," I would argue that Bossie and Bannon fail to appreciate how globalism and "new world order" free-trade politics of both the Republican and Democratic parties have shaped much of today's economics, regardless of whether the White House is controlled by the political left or the political right.

"Generation Zero," a new documentary produced by Citizens United head David N. Bossie and writer/director Stephen K. Bannon presents a compelling indictment of runaway federal budgets under President Barack Obama.

As such, "Generation Zero" will become an important statement dedicated to expressing the core concerns of the millions of independent voters and middle-class Americans participating in the rapidly emerging tea-party movement.

"Generation Zero" is Bossie and Bannon's name for the now retiring baby boomers who were born into unprecedented prosperity made possible by the economic sacrifices of their Depression-era grandparents and the valor of their World War II-generation parents.

The documentary attributes the U.S. fiscal meltdown to undisciplined baby boomers coming to maturity and gaining power.

In the 1950s, parents determined that their children would be sheltered from the economic hardships of the 1930s and the wartime sacrifices of the 1940s; their offspring were coddled growing up in a childhood of Beaver Cleaver suburbs.

"Turning on" and "dropping out," the Woodstock generation rebelled, turning against traditional American values and embracing instead the anti-American anger of the far-left.

Internalizing Saul Alinsky's call to use Machiavellian principles that the "end justifies the means," a long list of far-left activists since the 1960s, culminating in Barack Obama, preached social justice in their bald pursuit of political power.

The unrelenting goal of the Alinsky-coached political left is to redistribute wealth from America's "haves" to the "have-nots" in a conviction that America is a racist nation that produces a social inequality only reversible by an attack on capitalism itself.

The inevitable result, Bossie and Bannon argue, was the creation of an ever-expanding government-funded welfare state Americans can no longer afford.

Now with Barack Obama in the White House, Bossie and Bannon argue, "Generation Zero" has added control of the White House to the political left's already achieved control of the mainstream media and academia.

By passing health-care reform, the Obama White House is determined to explore the final socialist frontier of socialized medicine as a necessary step, regardless of the cost.
