RealClearPolitics - Articles - Obama Stimulates Fear, Doom & Gloom
NPR was in full chortle mode this AM as they discussed the huge victory for BO, a COMPROMISE PACKAGE brought about by those 3 courageous Republicans -- the RINO Twins (Collins and Snowe), and the "Spectre" -- of destriction, despair and death.
When the Republicans were in charge, they NEVER had more than 54 Senators, so they ALWAYS had to get 6 votes in the Senate -- yet when they would pass legislation, it was "partisan politics" and "party lines" -- with Harry Reid able to point out how "The Bush Administration and Republicans refused all the attempts of the wonderful Democrats to make this bill better" -- and meantime, 6 of them voted to avoid filibuster and no doubt got more than their pound of flesh, of which we will never know.
Why is that important? Because even this AM, while seemingly giving strong thanks to the 3 Republicans that broke ranks, the seeds were being sold of "how much worse they made the bill". David Obey of WI hedged the bets sniff of "it isn't big enough". As is always the case with the MSM and Democrats, they lack the conviction of what they do, since they have no firm conviction of anything -- freedom, the abilites of the American people, the rightness of the Constitution, or a faith in God for that matter.
So they "hedge" -- and they would STILL hedge if they had all seats in both houses of congress, because the essence of liberalism is NEVER taking responsibility and NEVER staking yourself to a consistent position. Every business person and investor, not to mention soldier on the line, knows that it is ONLY putting yourself in a spot where you can succeed, fail and KNOW THE DIFFERENCE do you even begin to really exist. All else is a form of self negation -- by never taking responsibility for who you are, what you do, or the outcomes of same, you have effectively denied your own existence. Your life isn't even a life -- typically, it is only a "complaint".
