Message to "Republicans" in Washington D.C.

I'm sure by now you folks in the logic free zone have figured out [that] you just had your collective ass handed to you in the last election. Why did this happen?

Sadly the answer had been staring you all in the face for nearly two decades. Your collective problem is that you refuse to accept the answer because the folks on the left tell you it's not the popular thing to do. Election after election you listen to the left... follow their "advice" and consistently loose elections. Do you see a pattern forming here? The answer seems to be no. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Kindly answer the following question. Which recent President won by the largest majority in the history of America? If you guessed Ronald Reagan give yourself a gold star and go to the head of the class. If you answered anything else... please find a history book... NOT written by some revisionist from the left and do some reading.

What made the Reagan era what it was? Simple. Ronald Reagan was an unabashed conservative and a true American. He made no apologies for his political position to anyone. He didn't need to. He instinctively KNEW what worked and made it his mission to sell that point of view to the doubters. Rather than adopt the failed ideology of the left... just because they said it's what should be done... he convinced the American people of his ideals and vision for the nation.

Why did this strategy work so well that it got him a landslide second term? THAT is the key point 99% of the folks who go to Washington D.C. so quickly loose sight of. The point? America was... and IS vastly conservative. How can I say that with such certainty? Have ANY of you looked closely at the county map of the last election? Take a moment and Do that... it will be enlightening I assure you. Well over 85% of the map is RED! CONSERVATIVE! Learn it, Live it, LOVE it!

Our candidate in the last (lost) election was selected for us by the media. They ran hit pieces on all the viable conservative candidates and propped up Sen. McCain. Why? Because he'd already proven that he was a left leaning person and they knew he'd be the easiest one to defeat. Sarah Palin almost ruined the media plan and damn near pulled McCain's bacon out of the fire. But even her plain spoken conservative message was no match for the media and their iron fisted control over what the masses are supposed to think. Still there was a lesson there to be learned. No matter what the media tries to ram down our throat... the conservative message DOES resonate with the average American.

That is the key that you in Washington need to learn and take to heart. Conservatism works each and *every* time it's tried. Who beats our candidates in elections? Liberals who play conservative better than Republicans. Who tells you conservatism doesn't work? Liberals. Who says that the only way to win is to be more "centrist"? Liberals. Who tells us that the era of Reagan is dead and that we need to move on? Liberals. How's that working for you? You just lost the Presidency and are the minority party in the Congress. Here is a big hint... and it's absolutely FREE! NEVER ever take any advice from the people you are trying to defeat! They have their interests at heart.... NOT yours. Ask yourself... when was the last time you heard a liberal say that the era of Truman was dead and it was time to move on?

Finally... watching you folks work in Washington is like watching cowboys trying to herd cats. Y'all look like day one of marching at boot camp while the democrats look like the graduation parade. They have an agenda and they don't care if it takes one month or one hundred years to achieve. What do you have? Reaction to their agenda. Adopting their agenda with your modifications still advances THEIR agenda! Would y'all PLEASE have a damn meeting and all get on the same page? When in doubt about what page to be on together.... ASK US.... not the media or the Liberals. (Same thing) We sent you to Washington to represent US. You can't do that by constantly trying to be liked by the left.


You can't be right if you're leaning left.

Please watch your step

You can sure tell when liberals gather en-mass. After the inauguration of B. Hussein Obama our nations capitol looked like a combination landfill and sewage pit. Trash up and down the mall as far as the eye could see and hundreds of "port-o-potty's" turned over on the lawn. Wonderful folks these democrats! Just think... we've got to put up with more of this type of behaviour for the next 4 years ... minimum! (Oh JOY!)

Yes... those wonderful people, who have been telling us for the past 8 years that conservatives don't care about the environment and want to pollute our country and the world, demonstrated to everyone how much better they are are caring for the planet.... didn't they. Day one of Liberal Run America and their first two official acts of dignity and concern are to mock the outgoing President and trash the nations capitol. Day two began with making it easier to access the records of the outgoing President and commit to closing Guantanamo bay.

For the record... in spite of the fact that the Clinton administration trashed the offices in the White House and the adjacent office building... and was guilty of all sorts of misdeeds... incoming President Bush toughened the FOIA requirements to make it more difficult for the media (or someone actually concerned) to put Clinton under a microscope. This is known as protecting the Office of the President. Obama has just weakened that position... presumably so President Bush can be hounded for years by all the "second guessers" and members of Congress who now want to "get even" with Bush for having been elected not once... but twice!

In another act of raw naked power Nancy Pelosi has quickly moved to eliminate the "motion to recommit" from Congress. This has been in place for nearly 100 years and was put in place to keep the majority party from running roughshod over the minority party. Miss Pelosi gladly supported this procedure when Democrats were the minority... but NOW that arcane rule has to go.

The motion to recommit is used by the minority party to have questionable legislation sent back to committee for reconsideration. This is helpful when an innocent looking bill is loaded up with pork or has something sneaky tucked away inside. Without this rule anything the Democrats want to do will just be rammed down our throats. (OH! Pardon me... I shouldn't have used naked and Nancy Pelosi in the same sentence... bad mental image... sorry)

Expect also to see the misnamed "fairness doctrine" to quickly come up for a vote too. Liberals and Democrats (same thing) cannot STAND criticism of ANY kind! How can anyone criticise perfection? In their own minds Liberals NEVER make mistakes and, therefore, should NEVER have to listen to criticism. To make sure that they don't.... and also to ensure that only THEIR point of view is advanced... they must silence the opposition. (See the communist manifesto) Basically... in order to control the masses one must have absolute control over the media. This ensures that only that information you want promulgated gets out... and in the most favorable light.

Look for the attempt at another change too. Back on March 21, 1947, the 22nd amendment to the Constitution was ratified by Congress. That is the amendment that limits the President to two terms. Now that the democrats think they have the possibility of generational control over the power in Washington D.C. they'd like nothing more than to ensure their new President can stay in office as long as possible. Not beyond the realm of possibility is the invocation of Marshall Law or other concocted "emergency" to circumvent the law if they don't get their way on this one.

Since the media is totally in the tank for the Liberals don't expect to see any coverage of these power grabs. They will be ignored or spiked in the editorial meeting long before the possibility of seeing the light of day. Also missing will be coverage of the reinstatement of the offshore drilling ban which President Bush cancelled. (The result of which was the instant drop in the price for a barrel of oil.) Liberals want the cost of fuel to remain high so they can force lawn mowers with seats on them down our throats as "cars". They don't now and never have trusted the free market system. Come to think of it.... they hate anything that contains the term "free."

On the bright side.... this can be a case of "what goes around comes around." (Provided the Republicans can manage to grow a big hairy pair in the very new future.) Eventually they will come back into power again. When they do the Liberals will, no doubt, bitch, moan and whine about how they don't have any power now. Simply point back at this point in history and inform the left.... YOU passed all these laws..... now you LIVE under them... just like you made us do. In other words.... SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN!

Ready for the big change?

It seems that change is just around the corner now. President Bush will be giving his farewell address Thursday evening then graciously introducing his successor. ( a far cry from how slick willie left, huh? ) I'm reasonably sure that White House offices won't be trashed, equipment vandalized or items stolen either.

President Obama has promised change... but if you've been paying attention lately I'm sure you've noticed the big O back peddling faster than a bicyclist heading for a cliff. Why is that you might ask if you have a brain. (Obama voters are exempted here) Well the answer is quite simple really. It's far easier to "run the country" as long as you're not the President. It's easy to say what you're going to do and how the guy in the big chair is screwing things up... but far more difficult once that mantle of leadership has been draped over your shoulders.

Mr. Obama isn't even in office yet and he has already back tracked on nearly every campaign promise he made. Club "Gitmo" was going to be shut down said O. Yep! That horrible place of mistreatment and torture was history as soon as O took office. Well... since winning the race O has become privy to information classified as Presidential "need to know". Guess what? There are bad people down there! Might be prudent to leave that place open while he figures out and option.

All those massive tax increases... well... they may have to be delayed. Kill the coal industry? Gonna have to examine that in greater detail. The death tax will stay on the books though. It was due to expire but the ruling democrats in congress decided they couldn't do without the money. (Hint... government can NEVER do with less money!) One thing that changed yet stayed the same is the administration. It seems that the entire Clinton machine has been resurrected. It's like watching re-runs of "Night of the living dead" only this is a LOT more scary! The folks in the movie don't have the power to ruin your life.... these zombies do.

Of course these recycled liberals are already touting how they will do everything much smarter than that bumbling fool, Bush. (See above where I mention that it's easy to govern when you're not actually governing) This is about to be that "rubber meets the road" part of the new administration. However don't expect to see any failures. The left wing media will be obfuscating, covering up and just plain ignoring anything that even hints of failure of any kind. To be sure... no matter WHAT happens Obama will walk on water and carry his own pond for demonstrational purposes. The media will ensure that he doesn't look bad. They made him... they will defend him to the bitter end.

There is a lesson to be learned from this though. Elections have consequences. The poorly informed of the left managed to get to the poles in larger numbers than the right. This was mostly because the media had also nominated OUR candidate and we were not all that pleased with their choice. (Although Sarah damn neared pulled his butt out of the ash heap) This means that there is hope for the future.

While the left is attempting to bring FDR back from the dead through Obama they are constantly telling us that the era of Reagan is over. You might ask yourself why they fear even the memory of Reagan so much? Because President Reagan represents all the greatness of America and all the good it can achieve in the world. The left believes that we don't deserve our place in the world and don't think the average American is smart enough to dress himself/herself in the morning without their oversight.

Only THEY are smart enough to know what is good for us. That's called socialism and it's the first step on the road to communism. Check your history books.... providing you can find one not filled with the revisionist claptrap of the leftists. Neither socialism nor communism foster individual pride or exceptionalism. They are the road to the blandness of and loss of self. Both fail every time they are forced upon the masses. America is the result of a failed socialist experiment. The first colony on these shores was established as a socialist experiment. After three years of abject failure it was abandoned in favor of capitalism... which works every time it's tried. (Provided the government largely keeps it's damn nose out of things and permits it to work.)

Still we may have reached a tipping point in the evolution of this grand experiment in freedom called America. That point is a direct result of FDR and all his socialist efforts. You see once a majority of the population becomes dependant upon the government then it's highly unlikely to ever reverse course. Why? Because if you have the power to vote yourself tax breaks and government benefits why would you not do that? (look at congress and their ability to give themselves pay raises any time they want one) Already about 45% of the population pays NO federal taxes yet benefits from the efforts of those who do. Once that number reaches 51% we're all doomed. The left has been largely successful at destroying capitalism and the spirit of rugged individualism upon which this nation grew. They control the entire educational system and use that to indoctrinate the next generations in liberalism. They control 90% of the media and will attempt to cement that control via the misnamed "Fairness doctrine" in the near future.

While the left hopes for a generational hold on Washington they can be unseated. Back in 1994 they were soundly defeated and that can happen again. If it does we must learn from the mistakes of the past. We cannot forget the cornerstones of the Reagan era. We abandon conservatism at our own peril as is evident by this past election. McCain ran the race the media and the moderates told him to run. How'd that turn out? Does it ever make sense to take advice from those who wish you defeated? Yet time and time again the republicans do just that in a hopeless attempt to be liked by the left. Learn the damn lesson! The left are NOT our friends and they do NOT wish us well. Look at how they govern when they have the power and copy that when we do.

After the 1994 victory the loosing left whined that they were being left out and it wasn't fair. What did our side do? Made rule changes that allowed minority leadership of committees and other power sharing compromises. We won but decided to share power with the losers. The new speaker of the House, Nancy (one too many face lift) Polosi, has just rescinded all those rule changes so as to totally lock out the new minority. THAT is the thanks you get for playing fair with liberals. Republicans.... remember that. If you ever get power back and they whine... kindly remind them of exactly WHO eliminated fairness and stick to your guns.
