Say, Is This Occupy Crowd Hurting The Dear Leader?

I do believe that the "Occupiers" are actually hurting the reelection chances of their God, the Dear Leader, President Obama.
And Jim Geraghty over at National Review has an outstanding take on why the unwashed sloths are not helping the Dear Leader, President Obama.
How then will Team Dear Leader be able to continue the meme that the economy is improving? Sure, you're still unemployed, but that is going to change soon. Yada, yada, yada.
Mr. Geraghty points out that the overriding reason the Dear Leader, President Obama, was elected in the first place was because in 2008, the economy sucked. The TARP bailout, which then Sen. Messiah Barack voted for, the stock market tanking. Yeah, things were really bad.
Now three-plus years later and, surprise! Surprise! Surprise!
The economy still sucks. And in many ways it is worse now than in 2008.
Here is the important paragraph in Mr. Geraghty's quick-hit analysis:

But maybe we’ve been missing another ripple effect from the protests, and more broadly, the “We Are the 99 Percent” argument showcasing tales of economic woe: In this environment, it makes it all but impossible for Obama or any other Democrat to argue that the economy is in recovery and that better times are just over the horizon. Obama’s election was heavily driven by the sudden onset of economic hard times; now he cannot really argue that we have recovered (at least not in a way most Americans can feel) and he can’t argue that a real recovery is just around the corner.

Exactly.
And the more that his "allies" continue to rail about the terrors of modern life in the Dear Leader's America (while being careful to blame anyone else), the more people will actually realize something.
Hey, maybe this economic suckage is the Dear Leader, President Obama's fault.
Of course not the "Occupiers". No, they will cut him a little break.
But this will highlight why most Americans, not quite 99%, but definitely more than 50%, will say it is time for a change in 2012.
As Mr. Geraghty points out, how will the Dear Leader, President Obama, try to run on "It's morning in America" if say unemployment is at or around nine percent? If the national debt and federal deficit are beyond our reach to curtail and or end? You will not hear from anyone on Team Dear Leader as the infamous question, “Are you better off now than you were four years ago?”
Because there is no way that we will be able to say so.
If that is the end result of the "Occupiers", the defeat of their God, the Dear Leader, President Obama, then they should not be anywhere near the halls of power. Evah!

I see the current administration instituting some outlandish dramatic short-term fix which makes headlines and bring BO one step closer to sainthood, just in time for the election season of course. After that, all hell breaks loose again. Now he's doing his best to buy off all the disaffected underwater homeowners haha!
