I'm not surprised

Your search - "How do Republicans get their power back?" - did not match any documents.

This search was done nearly a week after the election that vaulted democrats back into the majority in Washington. As you may recall, after the democrat defeats in the two previous election cycles the media fretted for months.... "What do the Democrats have to do to get their power back?" There wasn't a single night that passed without someone in the media posing that question to other pundants or ranking liberals across the country.

Obviously the mainstream media isn't biased in their reporting. Heck... they have told us that they're not for years now..... and naturally we all believe them. (Yeah, right!) So far all I've heard is how wonderful it is that the democrats are the majority again. Everything will now be rosy and bright.... everyone will love us... kum-by-ya. But they have already warned us that they will be "forced" to take tough action to reverse the dangerous trends of the Bush administration.

Those "Dangerous trends" include the highest stock market in the history of the nation. Over 12,000 and doing fine.... so far. Another "dangerous trend" is the lowest unemployment in the history of the nation.... 4.3%. That's a full point lower than at any time under Clinton. At 5.4% unemployment Clinton was lauded for his efforts and praised for his concern. President Bush has a larger number of potiential workers and a full percentage point better unemployment statistic figure and the press calls his results "A national embarassment." (Obviously an objective and UNbiased opinion) Another dangerous trend is the increasing revenue to the federal government because of the Bush Tax cuts. Yes it's true. Cut peoples taxes and the revenue to the government actually goes up, folks. It's a very mysterious truism that the democrats will never admit to understanding too.

See.... there are two ways to get money into Washington. The Liberal way is to simply tax the hell out of everyone and everything. When Clinton was in office I'm sure you "Seasoned citizens" were thrilled when he increased your taxes right along with everyone else. The conservative way is to lower taxes and let the economy do the rest. When people have more money to spend they often do! When money is spent, taxes are paid and goods or services are purchased. That means an increase in demand. Increased demand means an increase in production to meet that demand or an increase in price. If production goes up then more supplies are ordered and perhaps more workers are employeed. At each step there is a reduced tax to be paid BUT it's being paid more often and by more people. Ditto if only the price of a good or service goes up. The result is obvious. Taxes were cut, the economy stimulated, production increased, employment increased, investments increased and tax paid into the federal government increased. This is the 800 pound gorilla that the democrats refuse to see in the room with them. Tax cuts work every time they are tried.

The other dangerous trend that they will reverse is our success in Iraq. Already we are starting to get "polls" out of Afganistan telling us that only a week after the democrat victory.... why.... things are suddenly much better there! The People now have hope and faith in their elected government. Actually this is the very same hope and joy over the improvements in their lives that they have had since we ran the Taliban out of Dodge..... or Kabul...... but because the liberals now have a clear stake in things... the news gets better! No more doom and gloom. (Again..... clearly UNbiased reporting going on here) Iraq, however, will be different. That is a sticking point for the democrats and they will not be happy until every American life that has been lost there is validated as an official waste. You will not suddenly see stories about how the infrastructure of the country has been rebuilt. (It has but you'll never get that story) You'll not see happy children going to a new school built by US forces and using supplies given to them by those same troops. (This happens every day but you'll never see that story either) At last count over 480 schools have been built by our troops and our valliant media has somehow not been able to locate even one. But let ONE car bomb go off anywhere.... and by God (Wait... they hate Him too) well.... by some magic they will find that flaming hulk and plaster it all over the news that night.

Germany (Yeah.... the nice folks who gave us a couple of World Wars to deal with) wants to put Donald Rumsfeld on trial for war crimes! Well if anyone ought to know a war crime when they see it, it's the Germans. Speaking of when they see it..... I wonder if they ever got to watch those delightful videos of captives having their heads sawed off with dull knives while on their knees with their hands tied behind their backs and outnumbered six to one? I guess there is nothing criminal about treating captives that way, huh? How about the video of people being drug through the streets, tied with chains, tossed off a bridge, soaked with gasoline and set on fire? Yeah..... on second though... no possible crime against humanity there. But the evil Rumsfeld...... the guy trying to bring acts like those to an end...... HE needs to be put on trial. More proof that the liberal left is and always has lived in an alternate reality.

America..... get ready for a feeding frenzy. While the vast majority of democrats that won office did so by running on a conservative agenda the leadership only sees it as a democrat victory. They think that they have a mandate now and they are going to go on a rampage, drunk with power. Under the guise of "oversight" they are going to tie the hands of the President with endless hearings and subpenas. Next, with the help of the media, they will set about destroying everyone who does not get into lockstep with them and their agenda. Remember when the Republicans took control and the democrats said..... "You have to share power with us"? Like fools we actually made that deal and gave them equal footing on committies and panels. DO NOT expect to see any such power sharing now. Republicans care about how they are preceived...... democrats only care about their power and, like spoiled children, they are not about to share anything. From here on out.... it just plain gets ugly, folks.

Now... the good news! After watching them do their best to rip this country to shreads and destroy everything we stand for.... there will be another election. Prehaps by then the Republicans will have learned that THEY lost this time around, NOT conservatism. Perhaps by then the Republicans will have found a leader with the voice and character to hold the party together in a unified front like Reagan did so very well. Right now the brightest light I see on the horizon is Newt Gingrich. I am free (so far) to hope.
