Who said it? This week in politics...

"We're going to have to change the prevailing politics in this town.”
Newt Gingrich
Harry Reid
Barak Obama
Sarah Palin

Well it was Barry O in another of his clueless comments to the DEMS on Capitol Hill. He went on to say that if the DEMS don’t push his healthcare legislation that they would face the judgment of voters in November's mid-term congressional polls. Barry is trying to box them in: Damned if they do and Damned if they don’t. Nothing could be further from the truth. Then again Obama and the truth are seldom found in the same sentence.

The only hope for Blue Dog Democrats and for that matter all DEMS this election year is to make an act of contrition and convince the nation that they have had an epiphany of the error of their ways. I suspect that “O” is planning to appoint a fair number of Novembers dejected DEMs to his bloating government but those jobs are likely to last only 2 years.

I think Sarah Palin said it well yesterday that the nation needs “a Commander in Chief” and not a “Law Professor” standing at the lectern. I would like to add the other things we are praying for:

• A humbler person in the Whitehouse that can feel our pain
• A president that is more concerned about America than his legacy or his Friday night dates
• Leadership that actually leads and not someone who drags us kicking and screaming
• Government that understands that we are the reason they exist and not vice versa
• A congress that votes the mind of their constituents
• Fiscal responsibility PERIOD
• People in office who bring jobs back to America
• Americans who take responsibility for obtaining all the above

So I would say to DEMs, Republicans, and those who vacillate with the tides that your’re on notice. It isn’t about political parties it’s about people. It’s not about what you can do for us it is about what you had better do for us. It is not about you. It’s about us and you will see us today, tomorrow, and most definitely in November.

Current Politics Suck

Trying to figure out today’s Washington politics is like walking in suck mud and is about as exhausting. Every attempt to free yourself and your spirit sucks you in deeper and all the while Washingtonians keep the water running creating more mud. Obama spends more and says he is cutting back. He says jobs are important and does nothing to promote them. The deficit is “of utmost importance” as he prods his party to increase it another 1.9 trillion dollars. He says bi-partisan politics is a must as he huddles his DEMs into a closet to meet and denies to requests of the Republicans.

In O’s first State of the Union address he spent his time blaming, making excuses, and making campaign-like promises. The man is clueless when it comes to the truth or the American people. I truly think he is delusional enough to believe that he is some sort of messianic figure. For whom or what I haven’t a clue. He cloaked his Healthcare agenda most of the way through the speech but went back to work on it Friday. He has sold America to Special Interests, the Unions, and progressives for thirty-pieces of silver. His arrogance and elitism are unmatched and these are the nice things I have to say about him.

Trying to figure out what to blog about has pulled my editorial shoes off in mud up to my waist. So much has happened and there is clear evidence that Americans are awakening from their “a little socialism won’t hurt” comas. Conservatives are winning some elections and hope is on the horizon. Then again, Obama is cranking up the political machine. Focus groups and leftist loons are organizing in critical voting states for November’s election. Republicans have still not found their message and the tea party is poised to make a difference. I hope we don’t find ourselves shooting at the enemy while formed into a circle. Be not deceived. This man will present a formidable front and raise millions if not a billion or more to keep the DEMS in power.

So I guess all of this is to say that when you think we have made some progress toward recovering our Republic, don’t relax. You are standing is suck mud and if we don’t help each other out we have only one way to go: under.
