On the radio today I heard a soundbite of a voice saying we need to work with the President, and when we have disagreements engage in calm debate ( paraphrasing ) as to our opposition. That was John McCain. If you heard him, then you heard that gentle, calm , laid back voice of his, talking about how we need to be civil and calm and realize Obama has a very difficult job. Very soothing isn't it? I love the heroism and admire the sacrifice John McCain made for our country during his time in the military. But he sucks wind as a politician. Period. He's a compromiser, and we don't need that now. This is not the time for compromise when the American way of life is being roped and gagged and lined up for execution by the firing squad of Obama, Pelosi, Reid , Frank, Dodd and thier ilk. This is the time for anyone who is a real patriot to stand up and start shouting and pounding on the podium to wake up the idiots who voted for Obama. This is when we need an opposition of Parliamentarian Daniel Hannan's quality on a daily basis ripping apart the economic and social train wreck that is the Obama administration. But, let me be clear..., I don't blame Obama for his push to socialism, fascism, and central planning. I don't blame Pelosi or Reid or Frank for helping it get to his desk so he can make it law. They are doing exactly what they believe in. They are extremist radical progressives with a full blooded socialist agenda to take over control of every single aspect of our society from how much money we should be earning, to what sort of medical care each individual should be allotted, to what sort of cars we should be permitted to drive, to what sort of education we should have, to who should be running businesses and which ones deserve to stand and which deserve to die, and to take as much money as they can from our paychecks and investments in order to make thier dreams of tyranny and total dominance come true. No, I don't blame them at all..., because..., they are simply being the animals that they are. Just like I don't blame a rhinoceros for charging blindly at anyone who comes near it, or wasps for stinging anyone who gets too close to thier nest, I don't blame radicals for being radical. I blame my fellow citizens for the ignorance, stupidity, and downright malleability of thier weak minds that made them ignore all the warning signs, all the attempts to educate them as to the extreme radicals we have in our government and what would happen if we put a monster radical like the smooth-talking Obama into the White House. We are getting the hammer put to our heads because of ignorance in our population. Because of the lame , weak miserable effort by our fellow citizens to understand that looking into the background is key, vital , absolutely imperative to understanding the goals and character of the candidate. But no, we had well-intentioned but misdirected people shouting thier heads off that we were all misanthropic savages for daring to question Obama's relationship with Wright, Ayers, etc..., and the uninformed dupes of the masses went along with that because it was populist nonsense to believe that we can't be too critical of anyone of a minority race running for President and that we simply can't hope to understand the culture of his background. Well, now, in order to remedy this radical agenda that is driving to chop the head off of our constitution and tear the guts out of our nation we need to re-invigorate our fellow citizens with the desire for self determination and turn them away from looking at government as a mother who is there to make everything right, but the time for trying to do that with genteel psychobable talk is over. There's no more time to give a disillusioned Obama voter a cookie and put comforting arm around him and say "I know it looks bad, but times will be better one day.". We need to make sure our neighbors know they were looked at by Democrats as if they were dunces and that Democrats and News media made fools of them by conditioning them to think like liberals and ignore the danger of who Obama really is, and that they... our fellow citizens..., are fully responsible for the socialist monsters that now inhabit our congress and white house. If you want to know what to do when your local state representative or your state senator is up for re-election, demand that they pledge in writing to cut all federal taxes and spending by 20%, revoke they powers granted to the Treasury Secretary by the Tarp law, and shut down permanently FreddieMac and FannieMae lending institutions, pass a bill for tort reform particularly that will reasonably limit some damage awards in medical malpractice lawsuits so as to help normalize medical costs for doctors and institutions, and that they will voluntarily limit themselves to two terms and will not run again for political office ever again after that. We need term limits on all politicians so that there is a cycle of fresh thinking moving into government on a regular basis. Short of having the term limits become law, which will be very difficult, we need to get that pledge from the candidates. There needs to be a new mindset in DC, and a new level of the greater population taking a very hard and close look at all candidates no matter who they are.
