The economy is purring along, the stock market hits new highs daily,
and 95.6 per cent of Americans are employed. But if the Left attains
power in the upcoming midterms, they will raise taxes, effectively
ending the very favorable economic environment in which we find
ourselves. This is just one example that helps makes clear that the
midterm election is a choice between the common sense of the
Republicans and the nonsense of the Democrats.
People are more free in America than at anytime in history, blogging
their opinions at will, calling radio shows with viewpoints spanning
the entire political spectrum, publishing ideas that go from far left
to far right. Yet, to the Left, we live in a Nazi-like police state
under President George W. Bush, with his freedom-crushing Patriot Act
and NSA spying program, both designed, by the way, to catch terrorists.
The programs the president put into place are there to protect us and
they have. At last count the number of times we've been hit since
9/11 is holding at zero. Again, common sense vs.nonsense.
Clearly, the Left does not appreciate what happens in a police state
when opposition to the leader is voiced, as it is throughout our own
country every minute of every day. In police states, they kill you,
no questions asked. If, in fact, we lived in such a state, as the
Left has convinced itself we do, then many who worked or wrote for
The Huffington Post would have been "apprehended" on May 10,
2005 - the second day of its existence.
Iraq isn't an easy war but who said war was easy? War is
oppositional. Republicans know that we must beat the forces of
Islamofascism in the heart of the Middle East and not wait
complacently for another attack on our soil. But being passive,
indeed timid, is the de facto Democratic "plan" (after, of course,
we cut and run!). So, the choice is the modify-and-win strategy of
the Republicans or the quit-and-appease plan of the Left. Common
sense vs.nonsense.
Would having Nancy Pelosi - with her vitriolic, Hugo Chavez-like,
anti-Bush invective - as Speaker of the House be good for a country
at war? Oh, that's right, it's an "illegal" war and Ms. Pelosi
should be expected to admonish the president over it, right? Then why
hasn't she criticized Hillary Clinton for her continued support of
this illegal war? 'Nuff said. Pelosi as a partisan attack dog is
exactly what America does not need during wartime.
Would John Conyers, readying his gavel for immediate impeachment
proceedings against the president, help or hurt our war effort? Of
course, it would be damaging to the country. (Could al Qaeda, ever
have imagined better allies than the American Left?) Would raising
taxes during this period of prosperity, as Charles Rangel is chomping
at the bit to do, be good for an already booming economy? I don't
see how.
Clearly, it would be better if control of Congress remained with
Republicans who understand the very real threat we face and the
necessity of absolute victory over those who want us dead. While the
GOP is at war with Islamofascism, the Left is at war with...Bush!
Common sense vs.nonsense.
The American people are not stupid, though the leftist elites think
they are. Americans understand that they have a choice between
Republicans who recognize that long-term peace comes through strength
and the Democrats who unrealistically believe, deep down, that "war
is not the answer." Common sense vs.nonsense.
Given the choice on election between common sense vs. nonsense, my
sixth sense says that the intelligent and intuitive American people
choose to keep the sober and sane Republicans in power.
