I've finally figured it out. The reason President Obama rammed this crap health care legislation through in defiance of a clear majority of Americans is because he truly believes that the majority is in the minority.

FROM THE AP: IOWA CITY, Iowa – President Barack Obama mocked Republicans' campaign to repeal his new health care law, saying they should "Go for it" and see how well they fare with voters. "Be my guest," Obama said Thursday in the first of many appearances around the country to sell the overhaul to voters before the fall congressional elections. "If they want to have that fight, we can have it. Because I don't believe the American people are going to put the insurance industry back in the driver's seat."

Such apparent smugness…such apparent arrogance…such apparent elitism…such…….stupidity. This is what happens when you live inside a liberal bubble.

Apparently, Mr. Obama doesn't get out much when he's stateside. He missed the three million people who stormed the capital on 9-12. He missed the development of the Tea Party movement, which is now over 20 million strong and growing. He missed all the subsequent nationwide protests to his socialist agenda. He missed how voters threw Martha Coakley under the bus when they elected a republican to the seat vacated by Ted Kennedy in a traditionally blue state…and (yes there's more).  He missed the flood of dissent against his health care legislation in the form of protests, emails, letters, phone calls, faxes, billboards, you name it. And finally, he missed the 11 (some say 10) states now suing the federal government over the unconstitutionality of this legislation, with another 27 states saying they will also block the mandates of the health care bill. Anyway, I don't care what planet you're from. It's hard to fathom this kind of executive and legislative activism in the face of so much dissent. The man and his party are hopelessly out of touch. Hopelessly, stuck in an ivory tower that will soon come crashing down.

Obama is out to lunch as is the democratic majority on the Hill. They think they're doing the will of the people. They really believe that all these objections to their programs are propaganda, trumped up by Fox News. It's just more astroturf. That is why I am relishing the November midterm elections. Here's my prediction: Landslide. The dems will be buried in the midterms. They will be annihilated. They will be utterly swept away in a sea of red…white and blue, that is.

We don't have to guess how the dems will look after November. All you have to do is go back to the 2006 midterms, when the GOP was kicked out of office in favor of another breed of insulated libertines. I can't wait. Keep it up, Obama and congressional dems; Those who don't know their history are destined to repeat it.

UPDATE!!!

It was recently brought to my attention that my estimate of the number of protesters for the 9-12 march on Washington is in error. In my commentary I gave a number of 3 million. Current estimates put the numbers at between 1.5 and 2 million people.  I do apologize for the mistake.
