Common Sense

“I wasn’t a great communicator, but I communicated great things, and they didn’t spring full bloom from my brow, they came from the heart of a great nation-from our experience, our wisdom, and our belief in the principles that have guided us for two centuries. They called it the Reagan revolution. Well, I’ll accept that, but for me it always seemed more like the great rediscovery, a rediscover of our values and our common sense.“
- President Ronald Reagan

Hello... America is NOT Buying the Socialist Progressive Agenda

The more this crap is forced on the American people the more this chart will go down, and down, and down.  November 2010 midterm elections are going to be a slaughter for Democrats, Progressives, RINOs, and those Republicans who continue to think the American people are not watching them for the deals they cut, the earmarks they insert into legislation, and just plain stupidity.   The corruption MUST STOP!  Get back to basics people!!!!

It's clear as day... you just have to open your eyes and stop drinking the kool-aid.


Prime example of a Republican who DOES NOT get it.  Charlie Christ from Florida...
From the Palm Beach Post, this is classic Charlie Crist:

Gov. Charlie Crist, a Republican U.S. Senate candidate, told The Palm Beach Post editorial board on Friday that, unlike many Republicans in Washington, he didn’t think President Obama should scrap his health care reform proposal:

“There may be parts of it that you don’t have to scrap. There are three parts of it that I would like to see scrapped: It would raise taxes significantly, it would raise rates significantly and it would take half-a-trillion dollars out of Medicare.

“I think the real issue here, as it relates to health care, is that people want it to not cost so much and people want to have access to it. I think there is a consensus of agreement that the health care that is delivered in America is good. But it’s not easy to get it and it’s too expensive when you do get it.”

Asked if there were any parts of the bill he liked, Crist said:

“I don’t think a whole lot. Watching the discussion yesterday (Thursday) you get a chance to sort of see more of it be ferreted out. You know, I’m the kind of guy … I’m pragmatic. The stimulus is a great example. We needed the money. Every other Republican governor took it, too. I was just maybe a little more honest and straight forward about it. Well, shame on me for being honest. But, you know, as it relates to health care, if there are good ideas, I’m willing to look at them. And I would take that same approach to any issue in Washington.”

Asked again if there were any parts he liked he said:

“Not at present. No.”

Not one good idea?

“There may be. There may be. You know, I’m pretty focused on Florida right now. I mean, after the session I’ll be more focused on the issues in Washington. But I’ve got to do my first job first.”


This is just plain stupidity, and why Charlie Crist is going to lose.  Why on earth who you want to keep a bill that will effectively help destroy the American economy, is hated by the majority of Americans, infringes on multiple freedoms given to us by the Constitution, will initially cost OVER $1 trillion over the first 10 years (with only 6 years' worth of benefits for 10 years' worth of taxes) and will cost magnitudes more over the lifetime of the bill, probably in the area of $5-6 TRILLION dollars.  All when you can just start over and go incrementally forward with smaller bills that we all can agree on?  Like removing the restrictions on buying health insurance across state lines.. THAT costs $0.00 and would immediately reduce costs because of increased competition and improve access to heath care.  That is just a start, but it's a FREE start. 

WHAT THE HELL ARE PEOPLE LIKE THIS ON?  They just DON'T GET IT, and will be gone soon enough.
