I get a daily report from Scott Rasmussen--he's very full of himself but seems to do a good job. "Here's today's report.

Among other goodness, such as Mr. Obama's down 19% in people who strongly dislike him, and I am sure I was only counted once, damn it, over people who like him a good deal.

The most telling sentence though is this:

Sixty-seven percent (67%) of the Political Class believes the nation is heading in the right direction. Eighty-four percent (84%) of Mainstream voters disagree and say the nation has gotten off on the wrong track.

This in two sentence tells us that we are held hostage by a political class who has nothing but contempt for us, our property, and our values.

This is the 84% of the people also believe that we are governed entirely against our consent, and that the political class doesn't care about us, which it blatantly doesn't.

The true war is not the one in Iraq or Afghanistan, nor the problem in Iran. The problem is our political class. No matter how many IEDs the mad mullahs fire at us in the Middle East, no matter now many nukes that madman in Iran has, we are utterly helpless, and America is neutered as a force for stability in the world, by our political class, who hold in contempt the values that make America the nation that the world wants to come to.

I know who the enemy is. As do 84% of normal Americans.
