The Party of National Suicide
Things to make you go, “Hmmmmm.”
For thirty years, the Democrats have followed a policy of National Energy Suicide. I believe the first round of Carter shutting down the Clinch River Fast Breeder Reactor. Since then the Democrats have consistently whined about how much oil the US imports while blocking virtually any new exploration or development of oil shale or oil sands. All the gum flapping about “renewable energy” and they shut out the most renewable…hydroelectric. Energy that literally falls from the sky. The only programs they support are the ones guaranteed to not be able to feed the nation.
Policy of National Economic Suicide. Underway as we speak. Destroying the US currency, destroying the free enterprise system, destroying anybody who produces or invests in anything. A man who has never run anything now takes the reigns of power of everything. The finance industry reduced to zombies. The US auto industry well on its way to being the American version of British Leland. The energy industry to be shut down altogether. And then there’s the…
Policy of National Hellthcare Suicide. Government takes over entire healthcare system. Turns it into post office. Brain surgery, when it’s available, performed by the schmuck who keeps putting your neighbor’s mail in your box. Nationalized Healthcare is always a success because the purpose of it is not to save lives, it’s to save money. Easiest way to save money? Let them all die. Except of course the politicians and their aparachiks. The healthcare rationing is for the little people.
Hot Air Gets It Wrong (update)
Hot Air uses its running Obamateur series to discuss ObamaGod’s complaining about people borrowing too much while he is running deficits to levels never before even contemplated. This is not a sign of being an amateur. Calling it a sign of being an amateur implies that he does not know what he is doing. That he is basically just a kind of a hapless boob from down the street in a job too big for him.
There is a saying that you shouldn’t attribute to avaricemalice what can be explained by incompetence, or something along that line. This line is not incompetence. He is trying to distance himself publicly from what he is doing officially knowing full well the power and prestige of the Democratic mouthpieces in the press with take the line and run with it, to convince the public that “See! It’s not really his fault. He doesn’t really believe in these nation destroying deficits. They’re being created by Bush and Congress and he’s just a well meaning public servant who has to sign them to help the poor.”
And I know people on who it will work. It’s not amateurism. It’s pure political posturing.
The Obamateur series may have run its course. At some point, it ceases to be incompetence.
(Yeah…I used avarice instead of malice. That’s what I get for writing early in the morning.)
Animals Have Rights!
They also have lefts. Both go better well with barbecue sauce.
My response to PETA activists.
My daughter tells me that the cuter they are, the better they taste. That’s what I sent her to school to learn.
I’m Ba-a-a-ack
OK, maybe a day late and certainly more than a dollar short.
