The fallen fortunes of the Democrats as the Republicans take control of the House and start the Senate session in a strengthened position is underlined by Gallup poll numbers that find the percentage of Americans who identify with the party has fallen to its lowest point in the 22 years.
Gallup says that in 2010 an average of 31 percent of Americans said they were Democrats, a number the party last hit in 1991. That's a five point drop from 2008 when Democrats notched their 22-year high of 36 percent.

Don’t be fooled...the roaches are scattering from the light that is being shined on them. Once the light goes off they will be back contaminating the environment.
And as soon as more of the Democrats realize that their party is closer to the communists party they will defect. Almost all of King Obama’s appointments in his Administration are confirmed communist. King Obama is a communists.
Gallup says that in 2010 an average of 99.9 percent of members of the news media said they were Democrats.
The current Democrat Party is not that of your father and grandfather. The radical socialists/Marxists have driven those folks out on the national and, to a degree, on the state level. The Democrat Party embodies and endorses the vilest of evils.

Important Lesson from 1995 Budget / Fed. Govt. Shutdown - Post #7 I remember an article after the last shutdown. It was one of the best articles I've ever read, and was about the politics of the shut down, from the perspective of a (fairly) young journalist. Among other things, he noted, the Republicans talk to us like it's a board meeting, like we're the enemy or one of their employees. The Democrats are salespeople. They throw us the spin, but in a self-depreciating way. Sometimes, when they say something, they grin a little, because they know it's BS, and they know we know it's BS, but they're always trying to make the sale. |

MSM is hoping the entire nation will not see the sad state of state finances. They have portrayed the WI situation as class war-fare, not a state budget issue. Class war-fare gets air time; real problems get swept under the rug.

It is beginning to amuse me that crazy liberals in Wisconsin and Berkeley and across the country are beginning to come unglued as Obama’s economy swirls the bowl.
They are the reason why they and our economy are in trouble. And as the budget axe falls - it naturally falls on them and their socialist programs.

Isn’t it ironic that unfettered capitalism generates sufficient wealth to fund the many liberal wet-dream giveaways...but when the liberals get control and force socialism on us, all the money to fund their utopias evaporates and we are left with nothing but mountains of debt.

Billions upon billions upon billions of wealth and where did he come for medical care?
by IamConservative (Liberalism - the surety of knowing that which cannot be proven.)
According to Mr Biden: "Every economist... from conservative to liberal, acknowledges that direct government spending on a direct program now is the best way to infuse economic growth and create jobs."
Barack Obama said earlier this month that: "There is no disagreement that we need action by our government, a recovery plan that will help to jumpstart the economy."
But the economists who signed the advert, funded by the Cato Institute in Washington DC, say that: "we the undersigned do not believe that more government spending is a way to improve economic performance. More government spending by Hoover and Roosevelt did not pull the United States economy out of the Great Depression in the 1930s. More government spending did not solve Japan's "lost decade" in the 1990s."

| "The son of the worst vice president ever may think he has some wisdom on the job performance of political leaders, but if he thinks a president whose actions have saved the country from a second Great Depression, reformed a broken health care system and protected consumers from the risk and greed of Wall Street merits such mention, his analysis is only slightly less ridiculous than his candidacy for public office is," said [the Dem cand.] (continued) Well, let's see... Avoided second great depression by forcing nearly ten percent of the workforce into not even bothering to look for a job anymore. Buys off another tenth of the workforce with a nearly neverending stream of unemployment checks, while at the same time spending trillions to feed unions and public employees. Reformed the health care system? I've yet to see word one from the Feds on how this is actually supposed to work, and I'm sure there's quite a few people working hard on trying to figure that out right now. But you can be sure that we'll get taxed more, given less service, and get to support tens of millions of others who can't be bothered to spend $70 a month for their own health insurance by paying five to seven times that much out of the taxpayer's pockets. And Wall Street reform? I mean, come on, who the bleep cares. I can change bankers, I can lose money on investments, if they wanted real reform they'd say 'Hey, you're on your own.' Instead the worst is still out there, feeding on us like the prey we are, IE: public employees, who are slowly bankrupting us with ever increasing demands for salaries, benefits and retirement deals. If the Federal Government had to follow the same rules as Wall Street, the dollar would be a delisted penny stock. 11 by kingu (Favorite Sticker: Lost hope, and Obama took my change.) How many lies can they pack into so small a space? That takes talent: BW, spokesman for the DNC, told cnn that the candidate for a U.S. House seat from Arizona has no standing to judge Obama. No standing? No standing!? He's an American citizen. Every American citizen has "standing" to question our elected representatives. "The son of the worst vice president ever may think he has some wisdom on the job performance of political leaders Ah, typical lib tactic - personal attack when you have no good argument. What his father did or did not do in office has absolutely no bearing on his qualifications, or his freedom to criticize hussein. Really, I'd like this guy to tell me why he wrote this, how this in any way addresses the issue. It really is just a personal attack, and reflects worse on him than the candidate. ...a president whose actions have saved the country from a second Great Depression, You lie. Even the administration's own economists put the effect of porkus at only about 2 to 3% GDP. That's the optimistic ones. The recession took something like 2 to 4% out of the economy. Economists generally say it takes a 10% dip in GDP to qualify as a depression. So by their own numbers, even if porkus hadn't happened, we would've been no-where near a depression. hussein and his cohorts in crime took advantage of another crisis, that's all. ...reformed a broken health care system Wow, two lies in one. First, the health care system wasn't broken. Widely recognized as the best health care in the world. Second, their so-called "reform" wasn't a reform at all. In fact it isn't even much about health care or health care insurance. It is about power and control. Our health care suffering is just collateral damage. ...protected consumers from the risk and greed of Wall Street... Oh, we're protected all right. Yes, business will look for opportunities to make money. But don't worry, they won't be looking to consumers - the government is confiscating all our money via taxes and imposed fees and mandatory purchases of "insurance." 15 by ThunderSleeps (obama out now! I'll keep my money, my guns, and my freedom - you can keep the change.) by Mere Survival - I’ve only lived as an American and never have had to face martyrdom as a possibility. How did this happen so fast? I’m watching those Martenson videos, which is why I didn’t respond until now. They are good and do help to explain our situation in a VERY clear way. The one comment I will make so far is this (and I’m up to 17 out of 20, so I haven’t seen the whole) is that Martenson seems to use the labor theory of value which is well discredited, and this theory of value will make the economic situation appear impossible to escape from (run for the hills kind of impossible). Reality is that value is not labor. 10 seconds of a genius’ thought coming up with the piston (or whatever great and grand invention you want to picture) is worth astronomical sums. 1000 hours of me laboring as a visual artist has a value approaching 0. It’s a trap in thinking, in my opinion; it is what the Marxists used in their economics and it leads to a mental cul-de-sac that doesn’t see the possibilities of free market economics, and sees only the grinding drudgery. That said, I’ve learned a lot from Martenson so far, and he’s well worth watching. Video 16 showing how the government has altered the economic statistics to fool us is amazing. The overall theme of geometric progression in finances is scary and rings true.

The United States Constitution was signed in 1789, but the United States Charter was signed in 1776. It properly observes that our United States owes observance to the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God — and to our Creator endowed Right to Life. If Congress has no place to protect the Right to Life, it has no foundation. FreeRepublic.com (unspun) - 2/26/08 |
| Point / Counterpoint // or, saying the same thing...? The Constitution makes it abundantly clear that the PRIMARY role of a President is to protect the country. That is the reason he is made commander-in-chief and the reason, other than declaring war which is reserved for Congress, why the Constitution provides wide latitude to the office of President toward the military and for handling foreign affairs. Every other duty of the President is subservient to that role as defender of our nation and its people. I believe he does not respect the Constitution and recognize truly what role the office is given by it. The President’s role is to protect and defend the Constitution. Not to create a nanny state and take away my rights. If it’s the role of gov’t to keep us safe then throw away the ideas of driving, having guns, raising kids and playing football. It is my job to keep myself safe and exercise my rights. We shall see what happens in the future, but being ‘safe’ is not a right. 3 - FR 1-22-09: by BGHater (Tyranny is always better organised than freedom) My interpretation is that the Constitution spells out the Government's role to keep Americans safe from foreign entities and secondly to keep Americans safe from an intrusive federal Government. As a country, we are failing on the latter and let’s all hope we don’t on the former, or we are lost forever. 6 - FR 1-22-09: by bestintxas (It's great in Texas) On This Day, We Remember redstate.com ^ | 1/22/2009 | Leon H. Wolf The primary function of any just government is to prevent and punish the taking of innocent human life. To but state the proposition is to prove it. Nevertheless, 36 years ago today, in the tradition of Scott v. Sanford, the Supreme Court of the United States took it upon themselves to declare that a certain class of humans were not really humans at all. In Dred Scott, the Supreme Court declared that certain humans were not humans and therefore could be enslaved. In Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court declared that certain humans were not humans and therefore not entitled to have government prevent or punish their unjust killing. Worse, that the government was constitutionally prevented from preventing or punishing their unjust killing. Take a stand, even if you never have before. Pray, grieve for the lost children, find something to do to help. 1 posted on Thursday, January 22, 2009 12:09:19 PM by daylilly Has the Pro-Life Movement Failed?
