On Which Side of the Fence Do You Stand?

Compare and Contrast 

There is a growing difference between the two major political parties.   This difference has intensified under the illegitimate Biden Administration, Democratic governors and mayors. Though far from perfect, the Republicans are generally not as bad as Democrats.

The following is a collection of political quips updated and revised for 2022. According to Snopes, “Which Side of the Fence? …originally circulated on the Internet at least as far back as March of 2011 … We don’t know who the original author was…” 

If a Republican doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one.  If a Democrat doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

If a Republican is a vegetarian, she doesn’t eat meat. If a Democrat is a vegetarian, she wants all meat products banned.

If a Republican believes human life begins at fertilization, he wants to see all abortion abolished. A Democrat justifies the killing of the unborn by denying he or she is a unique person in the earliest state of development.

If a Republican is a homosexual, he quietly leads his life. If a Democrat is a homosexual, he demands legislated respect, rights, and special privileges.

If a Republican is down-and-out, she thinks about how to better her situation.  If a Democrat is down-and-out, she wonders who is going to take care of her. 

If a Republican doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels.  A Democrat demands that those they don’t like to be shut down.

If a Republican sends his children to a public school, he expects his kids to learn how to think, to read, to write, and do arithmetic. If a Democrats sends his children to public school, he accepts his kids learning what to think, namely Marxist ideology, Critical Race Theory (CRT), the Lesbian, Homosexual, Bisexual, and Transgender (LHBT) agenda, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), and Comprehensive Sex Ed (CSE).

If a Republican doesn’t like the climate she is living in, she moves. If a Democrat doesn’t like the climate she is living in, she blames global warming or global cooling, whichever is in vogue at the time.

If a Republican is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church. A Democrat non-believer wants any mention of God and religion banned.

If a Republican decides she needs healthcare, she goes about shopping for it. If a Democrat decides she needs healthcare, she demands that the rest of us pay for hers.

If a Republican reads this, he’ll blog it and/or post it on social media so all can have a good laugh.  A Democrat will delete it or ignore it because he’s “bewildered because the truth is out, and he still doesn’t get it.”

Marks of Marxism on America



In an article, "Bloody century, compliments of Marxism," by Ed Vitagliano in the AFA Journal (Jan./Feb. 2021) is a quote by C. Bradley Thompson.  Thompson said in a 2012 speech, “Nothing in the long span of human history comes close to the tyranny, terror, and mass genocide caused by Marxism in power – nothing.”

Later in the article Vitagliano writes that Thompson identified how the Marxists/communists advanced their revolutionary ambitions, in other words, the communist’s dirty laundry list of weapons or tactics used:

·                “Collectivism,

·                One-party rule,

·                Man-made famine,

·                Secret police,

·                Arrests,

·                Propaganda,

·                Censorship,

·                Ethnic cleansing,

·                Purges,

·                Show trials,

·                Reeducation camps,

·                Gulags,

·                Firing squads, and

·                Killing fields,

-  All of these defined life under communism.”

So, let’s look at this list and see if it parallels what we are seeing in America today, especially since the January 20th inauguration of the illegitimate President Joe Biden.

Collectivism

The rejection of individual freedom and liberty in favor of the group.  Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines collectivism as, “a political or economic theory advocating collective control especially over production and distribution...” Biden’s Executive Orders that:

n    Directs the attorney general not to renew federal contracts with private prisons.

n    Cancels the Keystone XL pipeline and directs agencies to review and reverse more than 100 Trump actions on the environment. [This would deal a severe blow to the energy industry.]

One-party rule

Prior to the election Democrats said that if they gained control of the U.S. House and Senate, they would seek to make Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico states giving the Democrats 4 new Senators assuring one-party rule. They also talked about eliminating the filibuster allowing to enact laws with only 51 Senator votes and not 2/3 of the Senate concurrence would be needed to enact their agenda items. Throw in open borders, increased in illegal immigration, amnesty, continued voter and election fraud and you have the makings of a permanent one-party tyranny.

Secret police (the Deep State)

There is great suspicion that the CIA, FBI and NSA are all Deep State players working against the national interests of America and working for globalist interests instead. The following Biden E.O.s demonstrate Deep State control using our compromised law enforcement and other governmental agencies:

n    Elevates climate change as an essential element of US foreign policy and national security and kicks off development of a new emissions reduction target, which will be announced by April 22

n    A presidential directive to restore America’sD leadership, support the international
pandemic response effort, promote resilience for future threats and advance global health security and the Global Health Security Agenda

n    Stops the United States’ withdrawal from the World Health Organization, with Dr. Anthony Fauci becoming the head of the delegation to the WHO

n    Rejoins the Paris climate accord, a process that will take 30 days

Arrests

The FBI has virtually ignored the violence and criminal behavior of BLM and Antifa the past year including recently in Oregon and Washington and has wholeheartedly un-proportionately targeting the few hundred protestors (“rioters,” “insurgents”) on January 6th. They, the Administration and the Democrats in Congress, in conjunction with the mainstream media and the social media oligarchs have attempted to label the hundreds of thousands of peaceful persons in D.C. to air their grievances and support the President – as well as any supporter or voter of President Trump – as domestic terrorists.

Propaganda

Much of what we get from the mainstream media is biased and is very much slanted Leftward. Political correctness, anti-Conservative, anti-Christian, anti-Life and pro-sexual deficiency are all dominant themes.

Censorship

As seen recently with the banning of a sitting President and conservative, Christian, and conservative voices by social media oligarchs. Social media has taken advantage of its privilege of being treated neutral platforms, while acting like Pravda, immune from lawsuits. See this article, “How social media censorship ‘silences’ conservative thoughts.”

Ethnic cleansing

While the Leftists, Democrats and their sycophants in the media tout, condone, and otherwise wholeheartedly support radical domestic terrorist organizations such as Antifa and Black Lives Matter, they approve of the overwhelming genocide of black babies. We will see future Biden E.O.s that expand abortion.  One of Biden’s E.O.s reflects this, which:

n    Rescinds the “Mexico City Policy,” a ban on US government funding for foreign nonprofits that perform or promote abortions

Purges

Some in Congress are calling for the removal of anyone who has a differing opinion of that of the Leftists in power. Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz should be kicked out of the Senate for their support of President Trump and their gall of calling for investigations of the unfair and unfree 2020 Election. Hawley and Cruz are not the only ones. Really any strong supporter of President Trump or anyone who dares question the validity of the 2020 Election is a ripe target for the cancel culture. See the article, Democrat Senator “Manchin: Removing Hawley, Cruz with 14th Amendment 'should be a consideration

Show trials

The two impeachments are political, period. They are unsubstantiated. They are nothing more than political theater with the purpose to damage, silence, and minimize Mr. Trump’s future political ambition and his influence on his loyal base.

Re-education camps

Some on the Left have even called for the need to send President Trump supporters and their children to reeducation centers to de-program them and to follow the party line. See the article, “Leftist suggest re-education camps, firing squads, banning talk radio to deprogram 75 million Trump Supporters.”

Conclusion

Regrettably, America is headed in a wrong direction. Many now in government have more in common with globalists and Marxists than they do with patriotic Americans.

One of the first things We the People need to do is to demand election reform to prevent another unfair and unfree election. Second, we must be diligent in purging Congress of those people who no longer represent us.  We need to primary RINOs and replace as many of them and Democrats has possible asap. Hopefully, we will still have a country in 2 or 4 years.

What Democrats Want, Day 86, Countdown to Oblivion? Terrorism – Part 2


As of today, there are 86 days until the most consequential election in American history. This is what they say about many past elections, but this is really it. For if the Democrats seize power – control of the U.S. House, the U.S. Senate and the Presidency – and doing it by hook or by crook (the justifies the means, you know) America as we know it will be forever changed. America envisioned and created by the Founding Fathers will disappear into the shadows of history.

The ungodly secular-humanists/Marxists slow march through America’s institutions over the last 100 years or so will have reached a crescendo – fulfilling Mr. Obama’s fundamental transformation of America. Never again will the demonic Democratic Party relinquish its grip on political power and control of the masses.

Envision with me what a Socialist Democratic Party, takeover, a bloodless coup, a regime change, would look like. This is the first of a series of daily articles leading up to the 2020 General Election scheduled for November 3, 2020.

In yesterday’s post we discussed terrorism in the world. Two primary sources of terrorist is Islamic Jihadists and Marxist Revolutionaries.  In recent time radical Islamists have be more visible and bolder in their actions. Look at how they are acting all over the continent of Africa, especially Nigeria, where Christians are being persecuted regularly. The Marxist revolution are just as wicked, yet they are more subtle and subversive, yet as dangerous and damaging.

In America we are experience the reverse of what is happening in the rest of the world. The Marxist are more visible and bolder, while the Islamic terrorists are for the most part laying low and waiting for the best opportunity to strike.

Terrorism in the Homeland

Seattle and Washington State
Portland and Oregon
Chicago and Illinois 
New York and New York State

These above-named cities and states are but a few of the places were Marxist revolutionaries are wreaking havoc. These Marxists are leading and subverting the so-called peaceful George Floyd protests. The protesters turned rioters are for the most part young people trained in American institutions of higher learning by Marxist professors to fault-find and reject the principles and values of our Founders and those patriots who have followed for decades after them.

These snowflakes are “useful idiots” of the American Marxist Revolution. The George Soros backed revolutionaries are using blacks, who think that Antifa and the BLM organization are fighting for them. The mostly white snowflakes and the inner-city minorities are being stirred up, funded, and used to destroy symbols of American Heroes and History. They are being provided ammunition and “reasons” to burn, vandalize and loot property, to assault and even kill innocents. They also resist and harass law enforcement.

These cities have become fertile ground for a Marxist revolution. What do all these major American cities have in common? Democratic lack of leadership pervades these cities since before and after the Floyd incident. Democrats have been in power in most cases in these large metropolitan cities for years, for decades. These Democrat "leaders" have done virtually nothing to uplift the minority population, keeping them subservient to and dependent on the Democratic Party, as  their slave masters. 

Mayors and Governors mostly in Blue States and even in some Red States like Ohio have taken a hands-off approach against the agitators legitimizing the criminal terroristic rioting, vandalism, physical assault, deaths of innocents. They did not back their own police forces. They told them to stand back, to stand down and let the rioters have their way. 

In my mind these city and state leaders are themselves domestic terrorists and should be indicted and prosecuted and imprisoned or at least impeached. They are willing participants with the two-fold objective of the criminal riotous terrorists One objective is to support the Marxist revolution taking place. The Marxist Revolutionaries’ goal is to accomplish what Barack Obama attempted to do, to fundamentally transformation of America into a communist dictatorship. The second objective is do all they can to damage the re-election chances of President Trump and thereby usher in the Revolution “legally.”

Likewise, #NeverTrumper Republicans, Independents, and members of the Deep State inside and outside of government are either foolish, willful, or ignorant partners in the Marxist movement to overthrow our constitutional republic.

Funding and Supporters of the Marxist Revolution

The ACLU, SPLC, #FakeNews Media, Open Society (George Soros) are the legal, public relations and funding arms of the Marxist revolutionaries and the communistic Democratic Party.

Democrat Solutions to Domestic Terror

The communistic Democratic Party is itself a domestic terrorist group as well as being sympathetic to Marxist ideology and revolution. The Democrat “solution is to Ignore or to support it. Why else would they seek to defund, disband, or disparage local, state and federal law enforcement authorities?

If the communistic Democratic Party wins both Houses of Congress and the White House in November, you can expect the following ‘solutions’ to feed domestic terrorism including:

·        Free tuition so Marxist professors can continue to indoctrinate more students

·        Blame President Trump, Christians, and conservatives for this countries and Democrat shortcomings and failures

·        Allow and encourage the destruction of more symbols of American history, good and bad

·        Employ policies that further destroy or hurt the natural family (biological male father, biological female mother with biological or adoptive children)

·        To allow the sexual revolution to further evolve making pedophilia, polyamory and bestiality all acceptable behaviors.

All of this will usher in a new America made in the image of Marx, Stalin and Mao.

What Democrats Want, Day 88, Countdown to Oblivion? Devaluing the Vote


As of today, there are 88 days until the most consequential election in American history. This is what they say about many past elections, but this is really it. For if the Democrats seize power – control of the U.S. House, the U.S. Senate and the Presidency – and doing it by hook or by crook (the justifies the means, you know) America as we know it will be forever changed. America envisioned and created by the Founding Fathers will disappear into the shadows of history.

The ungodly secular-humanists/Marxists slow march through America’s institutions over the last 100 years or so will have reached a crescendo – fulfilling Mr. Obama’s fundamental transformation of America. Never again will the demonic Democratic Party relinquish its grip on political power and control of the masses.

Envision with me what a Socialist Democratic Party, takeover, a bloodless coup, a regime change, would look like. This is the first of a series of daily articles leading up to the 2020 General Election scheduled for November 3, 2020.

Watering Down the Vote

Illegal aliens voting, dead people voting, people voting multiple times, and felons voting all combine to offset the votes of law-abiding American citizens.   States removing voter identification requirements especially through mass mailing out of blank ballots to everyone currently listed on the voter rolls lends itself to rampant election and voter fraud.  

In the large populated state of California and other places is an increasing problem of ballot harvesting, which is:

the collecting and submitting of absentee or mail-in voter ballots by volunteers or workers. It occurs in some areas of the U.S. where voting by mail is common but is illegal in some other states.

Who tends to benefit from election and voter irregularities? Why it is the communistic Democratic Party if it manages to retain the U.S. House, wins the Senate and the White House in November. Yes, the Democrats will stop at nothing to try to win the upcoming election.  The end justifies the means for the Democrats.

Open Border, Open Voting

Illegals will be welcomed with open arms. With all the “success” of the pro-death Democrats protecting a woman’s right to murder her baby, America will need workers to replacing our aging population.  The swarms of illegals will include Jihadists and criminals and those who will make no making no significant contribution to the country, but will only be an additional drain on an debt ridden country.

We Are on the Precipice 

Patriots, Christians and freedom-loving people of all ethnicities must vote this year to keep the Democrats from gaining absolute power. We now have less than three months to do all we can to keep USS America from sinking.

For if the communistic Democratic Party makes a clean sweep of both Houses of Congress and the Presidency, be assured that America, like past and current tyrannical regimes, will become a totalitarian one-party controlled nation.

Could it be that a communistic Democratic takeover would be God’s final judgement on this nation for turning its collective back on Him?  And failing to repent of our evil ways? He has long tolerated the on-going holocaust of abortion, the many flavors of sexual perversity practiced, flaunted in movies, music, the internet, and television, etc. and now even being taught in public schools, K-12.

However, we still have time, 88 days... let's make the best use of them.

What Democrats Want, Day 94, Countdown to Oblivion? Shooting Down the Second Amendment



As of today, there are 94days until the most consequential election in American history. This is what they say about many past elections, but this is really it. For if the Democrats seize power – control of the U.S. House, the U.S. Senate and the Presidency – and doing it by hook or by crook (the justifies the means, you know) America as we know it will be forever changed. America envisioned and created by the Founding Fathers will disappear into the shadows of history.

The ungodly secular-humanists/Marxists slow march through America’s institutions over the last 100 years or so will have reached a crescendo – fulfilling Mr. Obama’s fundamental transformation of America. Never again will the demonic Democratic Party relinquish its grip on political power and control of the masses.

Envision with me what a Socialist Democratic Party, takeover, a bloodless coup, a regime change, would look like. This is the first of a series of daily articles leading up to the 2020 General Election scheduled for November 3, 2020.

Guns are not the problem; it is the person misusing the gun that is the problem. But you can’t convince the communistic Democratic Party of that fact.

Totalitarians Always Go After Guns

Hitler, Stalin, all dictators strip the people of their guns, so they cannot fight back. There were calls during the Obama Administration to confiscate guns due to “gun violence.” Should the communistic Democratic Party succeed in gaining control of the entire Congress and the Presidency, you can bet on it that gun owners will be a target.

Gun Rights or Gun Wrongs?

Chicago and Illinois have one of the most stringent gun laws. Ironically, it also has a high crime rate and death rate as a result of guns. What essentially happens is the guns of the law abiding are targeted, thereby leaving the illegal guns in the hands of gangs and other criminal elements.  Chicago Mayor Lightfoot recently blamed surrounding states for supplying Chicago with guns. No, Madame Mayor, you are wrong. The Founders added the second amendment so that citizens could protect themselves from criminals and from a future tyrannical government that may arise. They knew human nature.

Disarm Citizens and Defund Police?

On one hand Democrats favor gun control, the confiscation of guns. On the other hand, there are persuasive factions within the Democrat Party that want to curtail or restrict or even remove law enforcement. What a volatile combination, a left, right punch. You would essentially be empowering criminals.

By contrast, In states that have concealed carry laws there is less crime. It is a powerful deterrent to crime. If a criminal is not sure the person, who he is attempting to rob, must think twice as to whether that person is armed.  

In a recent article about the 2020 Democratic Party platform Johnathan Jones wrote: 



““Democrats will enact universal background checks, end online sales of guns and ammunition, close dangerous loopholes that currently allow stalkers and some individuals convicted of assault or battery to buy and possess firearms, and adequately fund the federal background check system,” the party says on the subject.
““Democrats will ban the manufacture and sale of assault weapons and high capacity magazines.
““We will incentivize states to enact licensing requirements for owning firearms and ‘red flag’ laws that allow courts to temporarily remove guns from the possession of those who are a danger to themselves or others.”
“The party also promises to enact legislation requiring firearms to be stored “safely,” and vows to make gun manufacturers civilly liable for crimes committed with firearms.”
There will be increasing restrictions on law abiding citizens through these measures mentioned above as well as others not mentioned. All of this will be done to confiscate guns from law abiding citizens. The result will be that the only people having guns would be the tyrannical government and criminals. The average citizen will be at the mercy of Big Brother government and that is how dictators want it. 
If the communistic Democratic Party were to win the 2020 election in both Houses of Congress and the Presidency, then eventually individual gun ownership would disappear. Gun rights would be lost.

Washington Audacity or Idiocy?

I'm puzzled. Why is the U.S. Senate wasting precious time focusing on Gun Control and Amnesty, when it should be coming up with a Budget and working on avoiding another last minute, manufactured, avoidable Debt Ceiling crisis?
 
Where are the leaders?

It has been four years since the last budget has been submitted by the Senate. Harry Reid is not doing his job. Mitch McConnell is allowing him to get away with it. Both the GOP and the Democrats are culpable.

We really need term limits to throw these bums out. They are derelicts. They are spending addicts. They are power hungry, and concerned with one thing, siphoning as many funds for themselves from We The People, the American taxpayers.

Yes, it’s time to throw the bums out again in 2014. The Ray Stevens Video below is a few years old, but it is still applicable to 2013, and more importantly to 2014.

Let’s pass term limits, too…

The bums’ posteriors, which currently amply fill Congressional seats to capacity in Washington, D.C. are refusing to deal with core issues. They like to deal with side issues and want to obfuscate instead of deal with the main problem(s) head on… So, let’s get some new blood – replace the whole lot!

Let’s follow Obama’s “new” Organizing for Anarchy (OFA), the Saul Alinsky model used so successfully by the Left, and the main stream media relentless pursuit as an agenda example.

However, let’s not use the tactics of the Left: perpetual lies, distortions, race-baiting, etc., but let’s learn from them. Instea, let’s use truth, education, and historical foundational principles. Let’s begin recruiting, championing, and campaigning for some real unBoehners, true Conservatives, as well as Conservative ideals and values …

Crooked Lines from Crooked Politicians



The Legislature and the Apportionment Board have worked together produce this horribly crooked map (above left) for the congressional districts in Ohio.  You can expect crooked lines to be drawn by crooked politicians. 

I discovered the website “http://drawthelinemidwest.org” which contains the alternative congressional map above (to the right).  Legislation to repeal the current map and replace it with this alternative is proposed by state senator Thomas Sawyer (SB 225).  But there is also a referendum petition to change the redistricting.  I am not sure whether these two proposals are the same.  (A proprietor of the website told me that it was the same.)  The Democratic Party is pushing the latter and I went to my county Democratic Party Headquarters with these and other questions.  I felt like Batman going into the Joker’s hangout, Captain Kirk sneaking aboard a Klingon ship, or Luke disguised as a Stormtropper in the Death Star.  I know that they are the enemy, but so are the corrupt Republicans who drew this horribly gerrymandered map (but many dems also voted for it because it was to their own personal gain, making easier for them to win their particular districts).  But if the Democrats put forth a significantly better (less gerrymandered) map, then I will sign their petition for it, even though I disagree with most everything else they do.

So as I entered the rundown shack where the dems have their headquarters, I asked the lady at the desk if they had the petition to repeal HB 319.  She pointed to a clipboard on a nearby table.  Then I asked if she had a map of what the districts would look like if this referendum was adopted.  She handed me a map, but it was a comparison of the old map to the recently adopted one.  After pointing this out she called for someone else to assist me. 

When I asked this other lady my question, she said that the referendum only repeals the currently drawn map, does not draw a new one, and that legislature would have to pass another bill drawing another map.  But this is false.  The petition says that it is to “enact new section 3521.01 and to repeal section 3521.01 of the Revised Code…to establish Congressional district boundaries for the state based on the 2010 decennial census of Ohio…”  The lady either didn’t know what she was talking about or was lying. 

But not only that, the lady told me that there is nothing wrong with gerrymandering as long as it done the right way.  I told her that I disagreed.  She seemed like she could not even grasp the concept that someone might actually want the congressional boundaries to be drawn in a way that is fair for all Ohioans, instead of just for political gain for the Democrats.  “I just don’t want these crooked lines,” I said (even though that term isn’t precisely the property that I am looking for in a map, but given the course that this conversation had already taken, I don’t think that this lady would have understood the term “compactness”.  Gee whiz!) 

The Democrats, for whatever reason, seem to be making a concerted effort to hide what this petition does.  You cannot download a usable petition off of the internet (you can only view a petition which already has some signatures on it from the Attorney General’s office, which presumably the initiative petition.  It is hard to make out the tract numbers on the back pages, I don’t know where to look up what they mean, and even if I could it would take forever to draw the map myself on a piece of paper from these numbers).  I am wondering why.  They don’t want ordinary people to able find out what this map is, they just want their unthinking base to think that they are doing something good for the party.  If they really cared about gerrymandering, they would make this petition available for anyone to download and distribute and they would provide a map to go with it so that people know what they voting for.  And why are no other legislators signing on to Senator Sawyer’s bill?  What’s really going on here?

If anyone has a map of the districting proposed by this referendum petition or if you can prove to me that it is the same as Senator Sawyer’s legislation, please let me know.  Click here for petition signing locations.

Rep. Jim Jordan Discusses the ‘Cut, Cap, and Balance Act’

Hat tip goes to the Americans for Limited Government (ALG) and Bill Wilson for this great interview with my Congressman from the 4th District in Ohio. Rep. Jim Jordan is one of the key players on the Cut, Cap and Balance Act of 2011. The bill successfully passed the House last night and is now on its way for a vote in the Senate.

Cut, Cap and Balance is the only substantive plan out there, with the exception of U.S. Senator Tom Coburn’s recent plan to trim $9 Trillion over the next 10 years. What the President, the Democrats, and Senator Mitch McConnell propose is a joke and what one member of Congress described last night as “Passing, Punting, and Kicking” the problem down the road like we have always done, instead of the serious Cut, Cap and Balance approach.

The President and the Democrats constantly mouthed the mantra of taking a balanced APPROACH. There is something off center about that idea. Their scale is heavily weighted toward more taxes and more spending. A preferred approach is a balanced AMENDMENT, though not perfect, would hold the Congressional and Executive branch spendthrifts’ feet to the fire. It would provide a semblance of ACCOUNTABILITY, which is seriously lacking in Wasting-a-ton, D.C.!

SOTU: Switching Seats on a Sinking Ship

Hat tip goes to twitter @ARRA and  http://ARRAnewsservice.com/ where I first saw the timely cartoon at the end of this post. 

The Democrats are using the President's State of the Union (SOTU) message tonight as an occasion to be BFFs with their fellow Republican colleagues. Apparently sitting together, like giddy teenagers, will bring the country together? What about cutting the irrational and unprecedented government spending of the last two to four years?

It’s an obvious and a devious diversion to take the eyes and focus of the American people off the reason that the Democrats lost the November election and place it on a new found camaraderie born out of the media-generated revulsion and blame projection onto the Tea Party movement, critics of Dear Leader and the renegade 111th Congress, Talk-radio, Right wing wacko inspired Tucson massacre!

“Civility!” is the loud and proud, but defeated, Leftists' cry. The cartoon below depicts the Democrats’ disingenuous and deceptive shenanigans. Democrats, they are merely playing the GOP. I only hope that the conservatives among the Republicans will not fall for this ploy and walk away …

Left & Right: No to the Tax Cut Compromise!

Hat tip goes to Newsbusters.org where I first saw these three cartoons. It seems like only the unprincipled middle wants this compromise between the President and the Republican Party leadership. Although I would like to see the Bush tax cuts continued for everyone, I do not like the spending that is attached that will be 'needed' to bring it about through the so-called compromise.  I hope that the compromise fails and that none of the spending measures tied to it goes through. You just know if the current President and former President Bill Clinton agree on something that it can't be good. I oppose the measure because of the excessive spending (I heard upwards to $250 billion) that will take to avoid the expiration of the tax cuts. 

I would allow the Bush tax cuts to expire, if we could require through legislation that all Federal spending be limited to some percentage of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) such as 20% or 25%. It would mean eliminating a great deal of government waste across the board. This, however, is why we purged many in Congress of both parties this past election. We want to control the growth and spending of government. We need to take the credit cards out of the hands of the spendthrift President and Congress and demand that they create and live by a budget. We must stop increasing the deficit and start to pay it off. It will take sacrifice. It will be hard. But it can be done. Yes we can - reduce government spending - to quote a recent President. We must. We have no choice. Our nation very existence depends upon it!



Is this change we can believe in?

"This is why the American people have thrown you (House Democrats) out of power."

Laura Richardson (R) with her mentor Maxine Waters (L)



Hat tip goes to the Sean Hannity Radio Show, where I first heard  Republican Steve Buyer blast acting Democratic Speaker Congresswoman Laura Richardson (CA-37) for not allowing him to speak on the floor of the U.S. House. See it in the YouTube video below. 


Interestingly, Representative Richardson defeated conservative Republican Star Parker, one of my personal and Tea Party supporters favorite candidates this Fall. The foolishness of the people of California for electing and reelecting persons such as Richardson, Jerry Brown, and Barbara Boxer baffles me.
