I’ve not blogged for a while so there are many topics to cover.
Barry Obama is complaining that the Clintons are distorting his record and being “factually inaccurate.” Well, duh! Where’s Barry been the last 20 years. Along with death and taxes, the surest bet a person can make is that the Clintons will lie when it suits them, which is pretty much all the time. Nothing bespeaks the ethical freefall which has occurred in American politics more than the continuing acceptance of the Clintons as respectable spokesmen for the Democrat party. Really, what sane electorate would consider for a moment returning these shameless con artists, who give white trash a bad name, to the White House? The Democrat party sold its soul in the 1990’s when it opted to defend Clinton for his indefensible conduct as president. Now the entire nation will most likely have the choice this November of deciding whether we’ll sell ours. I wish I was more sanguine about the probable outcome.

Hooray! The United States government is apparently going to be mailing me and mine a check to be used to “stimulate” the economy. Gee, my review of my bank and credit card statements indicate I’m doing quite nicely in that regard already. Upset that Republicans have joined the “free money” movement, Congressional Democrats wish to up the ante by increasing handouts for food stamps, home heating (fuel oil) subsidies, and infrastructure improvements (that is, shoveling some money the Unions way). And, of course, to teach the Republicans what Johnny-come-lately they are to the give away racket, Democrats what to make sure that “tax rebates” reach folks WHO DON’T PAY TAXES! The apotheosis of liberal economics! Taking from the rich (you and me) to give the poor (defined as groups who vote for Democrats regardless of facts or logic). Of course, Robin Hood practiced it first. Most people would define extracting money from one person by coercion and transferring it to another who did not earn it as robbery. When our government does it, it’s called “stimulating the economy.

Are any Republicans running for president this year? Now, I know that some individuals are seeking the nomination of the Republican party for president; that problem is, none of them seem to be Republicans! Do we really want another president from Hope, Arkansas? Been there, done that! John McCain, war hero, U.S. Senator, straight talker, open borders, campaign finance - Oops! Rudy, American’s mayor, the Log Cabin Republicans’ best friend. Cancel Rudy. Mitt Romney, handsome, rich, well spoken, Morman, flexible views, Mormon, flexible views. MORMON! FLEXIBLE VIEWS! Yee gads! It almost makes one yearn for the days of Bob Dole. Almost.
Until next time, adios amigos!!
