ONLY ONE CANDIDATE IS RIGHT ON THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES

December 28, 2011

In the upcoming presidential election, two issues are more important than any others: repealing Obamacare and halting illegal immigration. If we fail at either one, the country will be changed permanently.

Taxes can be raised and lowered. Regulations can be removed (though they rarely are). Attorneys general and Cabinet members can be fired. Laws can be repealed. Even Supreme Court justices eventually die.

But capitulate on illegal immigration, and the entire country will have the electorate of California. There will be no turning back.

Similarly, if Obamacare isn't repealed in the next few years, it never will be.

America will begin its ineluctable descent into becoming a worthless Western European country, with rotten health care, no money for defense and ever-increasing federal taxes to support the nanny state.

So let's consider which of the Republican candidates are most likely to succeed at these objectives.

In order to allow Democrats to indignantly denounce Republicans who said Obamacare would add to the deficit, the bill was structured so that no goodies get paid out immediately. That way, when the Congressional Budget Office was asked to determine if Obamacare was "revenue neutral" over its first 10 years, government accountants were looking at a bill that collected taxes for 10 years, but only distributed treats in the later years.

Starting at year 11, those accountants will be in for a big surprise when the government starts paying out Obamacare benefits without interruption.

Because of this accounting fraud, Obamacare can still be repealed. But as soon as all Americans have been thrown off their employer-provided insurance plans and are forced to start depending on the government for health care, Republicans will never be able to repeal it.

The vast complex of unionized government workers managing our health care from Washington will fight to keep their jobs (for more on this topic, see the Department of Education), voters will want their "free" government treats (for more on this topic, see Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security) -- and even if they don't, there won't be a private insurance market for them to go back to (for more on this topic, see IRS rules favoring employer-provided health care).

Doesn't the poor woman know how much her Romney love is damaging her conservative credibility?

It's like she is Squeaky Fromm and Mitt is Charles Manson.

Second week in a row I’m not linking to read the rest of her column.

Maybe Ann hates red lipstick...LOL.

Just two years ago I would have eaten the corn out of Ann’s toes (if she would let me). Now I have doubts about her judgement. What has happened to her?

Dear Ann, Please take your place in line behind George Will, Glenn Beck, and Charles Krauthammer, and thanks for flying Air Conservative. Bye bye now.

Ann,
Crawl back to your good buddy Bill Maher, you trailer trash skank.

She’s been even extra shrewish lately about Romney - the guy she told CPAC was a sure loser to Obama. She’s been at this with great intensity for the last 30-60 days. She told Hannity on his radio show that Romeny had to be our nominee because he wouldn’t be able to be protrayed as “crazy” by the media. Is she that stupid? So what if they can’t demonize him in the same way they can Ron Paul - that doesn’t mean Romney can’t be demonized at all. And he most surely will be. Worse still, when he is targeted en masse by the Obama Billion Dollars - this guy is not exactly the quickest wit on his feet. He strains to be seen as nondescript, and that will be the glaring hole they expose. He’ll be Bob Dole all over again.

Notice how these Romney Shrews like Coulter have been screeching so loudly over the last month, trying to wrap this up for Romney now - before a single primary vote is cast. They know all too well that once votes start getting counted - especially in the South - Romney has next to zero chance of winning any of those. Yeah, they fully know that. That’s why the RINOs like Coulter want this sewn up now. And admonishes the TEA Party voters to just basically shut up and do what she says. She’s intolerable.

Wow!

Is Ann really that stupid? The Republican candidate must first secure the conservative base before running after the squishy middle. Reagan knew that; poor Ann doesn’t.

The Mittwit consistently polls at 25% or less among all Republicans. How many conservative Republicans support Mittwit? 3%? 2%?

It’s hard to believe that this stick-woman is related to ultimate fighting champ Randy Couture.

I'm sorry Ann, I know you are "blonde" but I did not think it was true...

[Chgogal]

Didn't Ann date Bill Maher at one time? Ann choses her men poorly.

I pay her no mind.

With Republican candidates, the questions is NOT who's right on the issues. We've had that hundreds of times. The question is, who can be counted on to carry out their stated beliefs.

Romney defends himself on his flip-flops by telling us, he had to get elected in a northeast liberal state. OK. Then today, he's telling us, what he needs to get elected in a conservative dominanted primary system. What's he going to do in office?

I just don't see Romney having his stated beliefs in his heart. They are tactical positions to take to win the election. Then, Romney wants to be liked. He's a squish and he'll be flaked, formed and molded by the Beltway culture, Demopublican political elites, the dinosaur media and oopsy-whoopsy, there go those promises. He'll bring them out in time for his re-election campaign.

I just don't trust Romney.

[sargon]

Does Mitt Romney have a position on illegal immigration?????

Several of them, I believe...

[JediJones]

So why did Ann say this about Newt 4 years ago...
