“BiPartisan?”
July 28, 2008 | | Leave a Comment
“BIPARTISAN?” The Democrats are always calling for “an end to the conflict” in Congress (meaning they want the Republicans to “flip” to THEIR positions). What they forget (or want YOU to forget) is that this country was BUILT on this “conflict.” Congress was DESIGNED for it, and this is the way things get done without the socialists (or anybody else) overrunning the country. Without this “conflict,” whoever was the strongest would RUN the country without opposition from “cooler heads.” This “conflict” is the “brakes” that keep us free. . . . EVERYTHING BUT TIME: Some guy and his family recently made news by going to Minnesota in a mule-drawn wagon. He saved a lot of money on gasoline. But how much more did he pay for mule food, sleeping quarters, hunman food and the like for two week’s time? When he could have gotten there in a couple of days by car. People forget that TIME is money. And he probably wasted more money in TIME than he saved in fuel. This is also what those who want to reduce the national speed limit (again) to 55 forget. Can they save enough in gas to equal what they lose in TIME? ATTACKS? The media is making a “big thing” of McCain answering every Obama word with a criticism, calling it “an attack.” Is it? And what’s wrong with that? Isn’t that what candidates are SUPPOSED to do in an election campaign? Democrats think they should be immune to criticism. Thus, they whine every time they are criticized. . . . “NEGATIVE ATTACK ADS”: Jared Polis, a liberal Democrat in Colorado, is running a scurrilous “attack ad” against another politician, Joan Fitz-Gerald, who happens to hold the Republicans) always whine about “attack ads” in their own “attack ads?” Don’t they know that’s what you do in an election campaign? . . . DID THEY REALLYCOME FOR OBAMA? The media is making a “big thing” about the size of the crowd at Obama’s highly touted and well-attended speech in Germany. But they ignore the two popular rock groups that performed just before he went on. In fact, he was really just a small part of the show. Did they come to see him, or just “suffer him” to get a free concert? . . . CHRIS MATTHEWS SLAMS “SENIORS”: He said that 70-and 80-year-olds “have a problem with change.” That’s a slur. We don’t “have a problem with change.” We’ve just been around long enough to see the same crap over and over again, and he hasn’t.6
