The liberal wrecking ball just keeps on pounding (will we ever learn?)

Thursday, Nov 12, 2009

Reuters.com is reporting that the white house is considering using TARP money to pay down some of the 1.2 trillion dollar debt. Yep, we are now on the road to printing money to pay off a national debt that is larger than all of the previous administrations in our history; which is a sure prescription for run-away inflation. This and Congress’ threat to enact another Smoot-Hawly style tax increase, makes it is hard to understand what our current government is trying to accomplish. Of course, if they are intentionally trying to bankrupt our economic system, then it makes perfect sense.

Add to the mix that Obama has already sent up a trial balloon on tariffs, his determination to get a 1.2 to 1.5 tillion dollar health care bill passed, and his open hostility to capitalism, what other conclusion can you come to than the intentional destruction of the United States as we know it.

In my opinion, the Republicans currently in office are only making token arguments against the majorities policies. Any rational person who had the opportunity to voice opposition to this train wreck in Congress, would be doing a Joe Wilson multiplied by a hundred. So what if we got carried out kicking and screaming? At least it would let the left know that it isn’t going to be a cake walk. And maybe some of those so called Blue Dog moderates would bother themselves to take a second look at the whole situation before taking the bribe.

The bottom line here is this: Washington is not listening to us, our Republican politicians are standing around scratching their heads, and I’m beginning to think that you would be lucky to find two people in Washington D.C. who have ever read the Constitution.

Are we sunk? I don’t know. Is 2010 to late? I don’t know that either; but even if we do take the House and Senate back, it will be years before we get this mess straightened out. And after the years of taking back the government, will we let ourselves get back to the complacency that will allow the truly greedy, power hungry socialists, to rise again?
