Dick Morris' self-confessed conspiracy theory: Obama "wants his plan to fail...so that he can make the case for bank nationalization and vindicate his dream of a socialist economy"

      I will agree that there is a President who wanted his plans to fail so that it would screw up other things very badly.

      That President is Bush. He wanted to screw up Katrina relief to get many of the minorities out of that city. He wanted to screw up the fight against terrorism so that he could act the way he did. He wanted to screw up forestalling the coming recession to put Obama behind the 8 ball. He wanted to keep the tax cuts on the books to screw up Obama's ability to fix the economy quickly. He wanted to do lots of things to make there be extra work to recover from his excesses.

        I don't think Bush wanted anything to fail. I don't think he really cared one way or another about pretty much anything.

      Wait, I thought Obama IS already implementing a socialist economy, and THAT is why he SHOULD fail? That's what Limbaugh said.

      Now Morris saysthat Obama WANTS to fail? Just like Limbaugh? In which case it means that Limbaugh wants a socialist economy too?

      This is much too confusing. I hope Michael Savage can clarify.

      Wow...does he mean, the same way republicans are jumping on their Katrina failure as proof that government doesn't work and we need to get rid of it?  This is goes in the "projecting much?" category with Karl Rove's complaints about Obama using straw man rhetoric.
