BLAX News: Eugene Robinson - "Obama Please Feed Us Some 'Stretch Goals In Our Struggle On Your Behalf' Via An Unrealistic Jobs Program To Sell And If It Fails We Can Blame The Tea Party

Washington Post - Eugene Robinson: On jobs, time to be bold

Please read the article above by the Washington Posts' Eugene Robinson.   Can you find a voice that is distinct from that of "Vicarious Living Though Obama"?

Mr Robinson asks the President to "surprise us" with an UNREALISTIC and UNREASONABLE jobs program.

Now keep in mind that Mr Robinson receives his pay check by telling the masses how UNREALISTIC and UNREASONABLE Conservative Republican public policies are.  In a first, Robinson asks Obama to submit a plan with these attributes.  Instead of swatting the plan down Robinson promises to market it for Obama and not charge the Administration the standard ad rates for the Post.

From The Article

Obama can quite likely win by convincing voters that even if they’re unhappy with his economic policies, the nation is better off sticking with him — because any of the Republican candidates is likely to make things much worse.


This line of argument has the benefit of being true. Does Mitt Romney have anything to offer except the warmed-over policies of tax cuts and deregulation that landed us in this mess? How will Rick Perry explain his view that Social Security is an unconstitutional Ponzi scheme? Can Ron Paul convince Americans to carry satchels of gold dust to the mall? Does Michele Bachmann have an economic program at all?

In my humble analysis it appears that Mr Robinson is asking for Obama to roll out a marketing program that is as vacuous as "Hope & Change".  After all Robinson was a part of the forces that "Made Us Believe In It".

Per the clip from the article above - Mr Robinson executes the expert task of "KEEP YOUR ENEMY ON TRIAL SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE AN INDICTMENT AGAINST YOUR FRIENDS".

Does Mr Robinson see the irony of first suggesting that Obama - who has been in office for more than 2.5 years - to throw out an UNREALISTIC and UNREASONABLE jobs plan but he then looks to his common Republican enemies with Obama and demands that they produce a REAL jobs program.

Until the Black community sees that the "Jedi Mind Trick" that Mr Robinson displays in this article is the same scheme that allowed the "Black Racial Services Machine" to "FAIL UPWARD" into the position of power that they presently have over our communities.

Thus - Black Americans are still catching "Economic Pneumonia".   Perhaps Mr Robinson has some snake oil that we can take for a cure?
