Do as I say, not as I do

By Henry Schulte | February 3, 2009

Isn’t it ironic that the very people who what to raise our taxes are the ones who don’t pay them. And isn’t it ironic that the state that has been run by Obamanites for as long as I can remember is the very state that may be issuing IOU’s on our own money? As I’d written in an earlier entry, look to California to see what you can expect for the rest of the country: higher taxes, rampant abuse by illegal immigrants, sky high insurance premiums, closing of hospitals, feel good politics, gerrymandering of districts to keep liberals in office, rules and regulations that smother new businesses, choking air quality regulations using the false pretense of global warming, which by-the-way is now being called climate change because it covers their asses since the world is now cooling. The list is endless and the results are catastrophic. California is being done in and the rest of the 49 states are right behind.

 

Obama has been in office for two weeks and already the Pork Stimulus Plan is being exposed for what it is, people in power, abusing their power and paying back the people who put them in power. This is a perfect example of how a one party system does not work. Nancy Pelosi is drunk with her new found mojo and couldn’t care less about helping the American people as much as she cares about feeding the unions and her like-minded hippies from the trough of the American’s pockets. Fortunately, a little time has passed and there’s been time to scrutinize this trillion dollar monster. And fortunately, it appears Obama recognizes that this thing may not be the smartest thing to do. He’s already back peddling and for that I give him credit. If he’s smart enough to make the necessary changes and turn it into an actual Stimulus Package, then I give him great credit. However, in the end, whatever it turns out to be, it still won’t solve our problems.

 

I don’t profess to know or understand all this stuff, and when I look to Congress I know that I’m not alone. So my suggestion is, step back, catch our breath and review things all over again. The country is moving along, albeit a bit slowly these days, but how is it when we really need to get something done, like real tax reform, it never happens. But when it comes to spending other people’s money, ours, they can make it happen overnight. Give ‘em enough rope…we can only hope.
