And the hits just keep on comin!!

Harry Reid continues his Grey tour. And what is that you ask? Well what he says isn’t technically a lie but it is extremely mis-directive. So it seems he hasn’t learned anything from this last election except his district is full of sheep that will follow the shepherd with the largest horn!

He continues his tirade about the party of “No”. As if they have held up so much legislation that would have changed the political or the economic landscape. If I recall the House of Representatives has been under the control of the Democrat party for a while now and in the Senate they held 59 Seats as of 2008 with 2 Independents helping them along. So what does all that mean? Well 1) it isn’t all Bush’s fault as the Congress that held the paycheck was run by the Democrats, 2) The party of “No” was irrelevant as the Democrats can and did pass whatever they liked without the Republicans and 3) the complete control of Congress and the White House allowed them to spend money like a drunk sailor on a weekend liberty and then turn around and attempt to blame it on the Republicans because they wouldn’t work with the Democrats.

Even if the debt inherited by Obama was all Bush’s fault the fact that it has quadrupled in his term means that he can “blame” 2 TRILLION of it on Bush but not the other 12 Trillion. That was spent under his administration and under his party’s Congress.

Again I ask how is the party of “No” even relevant. What did they do to try and reign in spending? Nothing. Because there was nothing they could do! The President pretended to invite them to the table but it was a dog and pony show for his press release and his fawning media so they wouldn’t lose the tingly feeling in their leg! At no point was he really going to include them.

Harry Reid and his party’s arrogance are what turned the election. It wasn’t the Republicans. The United States as a whole are quickly growing tired of politicians, NOT politics. To our very core, we enjoy a good fight or argument. Heck we were born out of political discourse. But we tire of the Grayson type politicians who show absolutely zero sense of common decency or decorum. We tire of watching groups like N.O.W. endorse politicians who would allow their staffers to call a woman a whore yet claim to be the National Organization for Women! Does anyone else see the hypocrisy?

You see the left has grown a nation of entitlement junkies and they know in order to survive politically they need to enable the addiction. So they pass “health care reform” when under all the pages it is in reality Socialized medicine. And for who? It wasn’t for me. It was for the people who sit at home, collect welfare and refuse to get up off the couch, turn off Oprah and get a job! Want a job or need a paycheck? The military is always hiring! You get training, a job, a paycheck and insurance! It is time to fix the leaky faucet that is Welfare! Two years to collect it and then you are cut off. Why 2 years? Because in 2 years you can get an Associate Degree and get a better job. No money for college? The military will give you the GI Bill IF you can stay out of trouble for 4 years AND you can go while you are on active duty. There are grants and loans galore so don’t tell me you can’t get money for college!

I’ll get off my soapbox now.
