How dumb do they think we are?
I know that the DNC still has one more day to go, but enough is enough already. I don't recall many {make that ANY} reports from last week's RNC about delegates wanting to KILL the opposition's nominee. I don't recall an illegal alien making a keynote speech at the RNC; nor do I recall seeing say, Dan Quayle or Bob Dole acting like they're still movers and shakers within the GOP, the way Slick Willie Pantload and John "Swiftboat" Kerry seemed to dominate "Jackasspalooza" this week. And I sure as hell don't see how Barack Hussein "saved the US auto industry." Didn't his attempts to do so only give us the Chevy VOLT????
I could go on and on with the partisan rhetoric, but there's hardly any need to. Unemployment and the economy have been virtually stagnant since BHO assumed the office. Thanks to BHO's economic policies, our international credit-rating was downgraded for the first time in the entire history of this country; I hardly need to mention what happened to both our trade and national deficits during this same time-frame. BHO may have "got Bin Laden," but he's turned his back on the rest of the Mid-East, as well as the Near and Far East.
This could have been somewhat acceptable, had he also got us away from being dependent on OPEC oil - but Barry has had no less than SEVEN golden opportunities in the last 4 years to do so, and he's passed on each and every one. Hell's bells, General Electric is getting ready to create in excess of 800,000 decent-paying jobs over the next five years - and every last one of them will be in support of their overseas holdings. Then on top of all that, add in the $1 billion tax-dodge they pulled off this year {with the Fed's blessing} - how could any sane person look at all this and say that we're "heading in the right direction?"
Item - the mean poverty level has risen about 2% annually every year since BHO took office; for almost 20 years before that, it had declined by the same amount annually. Even if the many minimum-wage proposals on both State and Federal ballots get passed this year, it'll only mean that MORE people will be at or near poverty-level, because the basic cost of living has also begun to skyrocket out of control. When was the last time you paid $2.25 for a gallon of gas, or $3.00 for a pound of ground sirloin, or $.95 for a pound of butter? Or even under five bucks for a fast-food "value meal?"
Those of you who answer "Four or more years ago" can take a bow, and relax. For the rest, well, let's just say I'm not terribly sanguine about the future of this country if BHO manages to keep his job. His "saving the US auto industry?" Bullshit. Aside from Ford, there IS no "US auto industry." GM has precious few assembly plants left in the lower 48 - and virtually all of its' onetime manufacturing ability has been outsourced to Canada, Mexico, and overseas. ChryCo? Last I heard, Fiat was the majority shareholder - the Pentastar brand hasn't been a US-based operation since Daimler bought 'em out back in '98!!
Ironic that of the onetime "Big Three," Ford remains as the only legitimate US auto-maker, with it's own plants, facilities, and financial stability. And is it any wonder that they didn't accept one damn dime of BHO's oh-so-precious "stimulus" package? They didn't need to - they bloody well know how to look after themselves THEMSELVES!!!! A little concept called "self sufficiency," which BHO and the rest of the DNC simply don't have a clue about. Item - both GM and ChryCo have re-structured their boards two or three times since accepting Barry's cheese; FoMoCo hasn't had a hint of flux at the top since they shit-canned Lee Iacocca......
Anyhow, despite my earlier vow to avoid all this mess this year, I just had to take a peek for myself to see if it's really as bad as I thought. It's worse!!! The DNC is championed by the only President to be IMPEACHED in the 20th Century; a lack-lustre Senator who failed his own Presidential bid in spectacularly embarrassing fashion back in 2004; a conspicuously absent Secretary of State {who can't wait to get rid of the damn job in a few months}; and enough other freaks, misfits, and ne'er-do-wells in the rank and file to fill a small stadium, drink the Kool-Aid, and try to make the GOP look worse than them. It's like putting Raquel Welch and Rosie O'donnel together in the same beauty pageant - only Helen Keller or perhaps Stevie Wonder could miss the painfully obvious............
I'm not sorry I avoided the bulk of the Circus this year, boys and girls; I just hope enough of the rest of my Fellow Babies out there are as disturbed by the dog-and-pony show as I am. Maybe this will be the year we finally climb over 60% voter-turnout for the first time since JFK's election - I dare say we need to. Barry's had his chance. Now it's time for him and all his Leftie-crew to go away, so the big boys can come in and start getting our house back in proper order again.
More shortly.
