Why aren’t you mad as hell yet, America?
What will it take?
At home, unemployment is stuck above 8 percent. Twenty-three million are out of work. Millions of others have given up looking for jobs.
One American in six is on food stamps. Small businesses are terrified of Obamacare.
The economy ran out of gas four years ago, and the president still thinks that the only way to get it going again is to fill up the tank with trillions of dollars of debt and make successful people pay for the tow truck.
Overseas, we have a dead ambassador and three other dead Americans in Libya. Dozens of our embassies are being threatened by mobs.
Iran is building a nuke. Syria is mired in a bloody civil war. Egypt’s new democracy is turning against us. And our Middle East policy — if that’s what it can be called — is based on apologies and weakness.
Meanwhile, what does President “Eye Candy” do this week? He goes before the United Nations and can’t bring himself to even mention the words “Islamic extremists.” He’s still blaming the attack on our Libyan embassy on a stupid film.
As the Middle East burns, Obama says he didn’t have time to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu or other world leaders in New York City. Yet, he had plenty of time to do the Letterman show and drop in to see Whoopi and the gals at “The View.”
How much worse does it have to get before a majority of the American people wake up, throw open their windows, and scream “We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take this crap anymore?”
In the movie “Network,” news anchor Howard Beale said that people first had to get mad before things would change.
So let’s get mad, America, and change presidents. There are fewer than 1,000 hours between now and the election that can save us from four more years of Obamamisery.
Mitt Romney is the change we need — and the only chance we have. But in their perverse way of thinking, the Obama Gang wants the American people to believe Romney is a bad guy for creating wealth and being a successful businessman.
Americans are supposed to be angry with Romney for paying “only” 14 percent in taxes or reducing his federal tax bite by giving $4 million to charity in 2011.
But there’s no reason for the American people to be mad at Mitt. He’s a good guy, a great American, and he’s eminently qualified to repair the damage Obama has done to the country.
But if Mitt’s going to win, he’s got to have a Ronald Reagan moment.
My father turned his fortunes around in the 1980 New Hampshire primary after the moderator of a scheduled debate in Nashua ordered his microphone to be turned off.
My father’s angry response — “I’m paying for this microphone, Mr. Green” — became a symbolic act that established his image, showed his strong character, and led to a landslide win that knocked George H.W. Bush out of the presidential race.
Mitt Romney needs to have his own “Nashua Moment” — and have it soon. A perfect time for it to happen would be next week (Wednesday, Oct. 3) in front of 50 or 60 million people during the first presidential debate.
Mitt needs to show us how angry he is at what Obama has done to America. He needs to show us he’s “mad as hell” and can’t take it for another four years.
Come on, Mitt — get as mad as the rest of us.

Must you post this on EVERY website?
it is getting a little sickening
Have you read it yet or are just tired of seeing the their post. It's a good read!
I am mad as hell, not only at the stupid duped people that voted this lying imposter into office, but also at the media, and the lack of action by the supreme court, the congress and military for there failure to enforce the constitution of this country. So what good does it do to yell out the window or shout that I am not going to take it any more when the people who are in position to actually do something about this refuse to do so. Yes Romney needs to stand up and inform the public at every opportunity that he is not going to take the lies and slander any more, but the only way I think that he can accomplish that is to buy time on the networks that are slandering him and talk straight to the American people in a manner that cannot be edited or cut short.
How do we as Conservative Voters get the message to Mitt Romney, "THAT WE ARE MAD AS HELL", and want him to be too, in his debate with Obama, Quit Pulling Punches, Call a Spade a Spade, Let Obama know that we all know he is a Usurper of the Constitution, Not A "Natural Born Citizen" of These United States of America, That he is a Traitor, A Thief, A Lier, A Dictator, Communist, Marxist, Radical Islamist, WHO'S ONLY PURPOSE IN LIFE IS TO DESTROY THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND HER ALLY ISRAEL.
Ask the Republican leadership where they are………I have been madd as hell since March of 2009.
Mike is right it is time to get mad and quit pussy footing around Obutthole.The time is right for Romney to show his tough side and go for Obungholes throat.If he he has any dirt on Oblameo it's time to bring it on.
