The Pretense Stopped
It's clear. The policies of Mr. Obama's administration are hurrying the country down a path of fiscal destruction. Most Americans now realize his presidency opened the doors of the US Treasury to a band of ideologically warped miscreants.
Of course, President George W. Bush and the Republican Party are responsible for deeding these flag burning socialists the opportunity to plunder America. The faces of the congressional Republicans were so deeply buried in pork, perks and political pillaging that they couldn't see the wrath of America's electorate.
The Republicans got what they deserved, a sound thrashing. The Democrats promised change in 2008, and they have delivered. They doubled the deficit and have outlined their plans to quadruple it. By comparison, their $787 billion Stimulus Plan shunted the Republican contempt for the electorate to the minor leagues. That's not the change Americans had in mind.
The major difference between the Republican and Democrat strategy can only be measured by a calendar. It took about six years for the Republican contempt for the voters to become clear. Obama, Pelosi and Reid only needed ten months to reach this pinnacle.
It seems that both political parties feel no compunction to represent the interests of the constituencies which elect them. They by-pass this core principle of democratic rule and violate their oath of office when they vow allegiance to their party rather than to the country.
The debate in congress, over destroying or not destroying the best health care system in the world, epitomizes where their loyalty lies. The Democrats (this time) are bent on acquiring control of health care to forever cement the power of government over the life and death of US citizens. That is absolute power by any definition.
In fairness, at least the Democrats have shed any pretense of listening to the public. They see the window of opportunity closing as Americans scream their discontent. This has only encouraged them to double their effort to bury the last vestiges of capitalism in insurmountable debt while they still have control of the White House and both Houses of Congress.
Harry Reid, the Senate's top weasel, stated that anyone opposed to the liberals' effort to substitute Obama Care for private insurance is pro-slavery and against women's suffrage. That these words dripped from the lips of a politician who has spent his career shredding the liberties of American citizens is beyond irony. He is to hypocrisy what the sun is to warmth.
And there stands an army of voters under the Tea Bag banner. These independent minded folks don't seem to like anyone very much in Washington, DC, and they are not impressed with party labels. But their greatest potential attribute has yet to be tested, their memory.
Currently the Democrats are rationing votes. Those members of Congress up for election in 2010 are permitted to vote against any legislation the majority of their constituency despises. All others will cast their ballots in favor of the party. The Democrats are betting the voters will forget about their "yes" votes by 2012.
Never forget those who squander the opportunity of our children and grandchildren to soar.
