The What Are You Going to Do For Me Generation

Posted on by TCA

In today’s Parade, there is an interview with the Romneys. One of the questions was from a stay at home mom wanting to know what Romney was going to do to make her life better.

The question should be: What is she going to do to make her life better.

Wanting someone else to make your life better rather than taking a stake in your own life to make it better.

That questions shows what’s wrong with the United States today. The question itself is un-American at least in the country I grew up in. Have we come to the point where everyone is expecting the government to take care of them and make their lives better? If so, we’re finished.

Obama’s Trickle-Up Fairy Dust

Posted on by TCA

At a campaign stop on Saturday in Chicago, Obama welcomed Paul Ryan to the race labeling Ryan as the ideological head of the Republican Party. During this portion of his remarks, Obama went on to say that he was an articulate spokesman of Romney’s vision. Obama said it was a vision “he fundamentally disagreed with.” Obama went on to say that “they have tried to sell us this trickle-down fairy dust before, and guess what? It did not work.”

Well, the President has recently said that his plans are working and had previously said that he was going to fundamentally change America. He also recently stated that he wants shared prosperity. Okay, so let’s call his views that of trickle-up fairy dust.

So, he has been in office for 3+ years, the Democrats have controlled the government for the past five years implementing part of this trickle-up fairy dust approach. How has that approach worked for the people in the middle class?

Well, fewer have jobs, fewer have healthcare, more on on government programs, everything is costing them more, and they are facing higher taxes in the future due to the overwhelming debt being accumulated by the government.

If, as he himself said, this is what it looks like with his policies working, I’ll take failure please.

Once again, Rush was right.

Liberals and Success

Posted on by TCA

Rush had a great point on his program the other day. Successful liberals don’t want others to succeed, and it is a point I have made for years.

You can see this in the progressive nature of their preferred taxing regimes (i.e. progressive taxation) as well as their rhetorical condemnation of success and capitalism. But, do their constituents look at how these people became rich? Or, do those rich liberals get a pass by saying they should be taxed at a higher rate than they currently are?

Education use to be considered a path to success and you needed to be educated on the basics to succeed. However, the past 60 years of liberal domination of the public school system has led to reduced educational requirements and increase social engineering requirements.

The results of the social engineering have been pretty much as anticipated: a reduced educational level on the basics, a less informed electorate, a cultural change that views success as evil, and buy-in that socialism is the path to success for the nation.

History has zero examples of societies succeeding under socialism or communism. Our decline as a country maps nicely to the increase in socialism imbedded in our country. However, the general population is seemingly unaware of those facts.

The dumbing down of society in general helps those liberals attempting to circumvent our constitution and fundamentally change our society away from a success orientation towards the banana republics.

Harry Reid: Nevada, can’t you do better than that?

Posted on by TCA

Harry Reid’s latest version of spirits in the night hit the stands. The Senate’s ranking Democrat and liar continues to open his mouth and embarrass the nation. His current target is Mitt Romney. According to Harry, a person at Bain Capital called Harry and said that Mitt hadn’t paid taxes in over 10 years which is why he won’t release more tax returns.

How much sense does that make to a rational person? This isn’t Mitt’s first run at the White House, so if this information was accurate, it would have come out earlier.

This isn’t Dirty Harry’s first attempt at this rather malicious tactic from the Democrat playbook. It starts back in the 1980’s with the disgraced former Democrat from Texas Jim Wright. The seriousness of the allegations against Bush I required that they be investigated. The corrupt media and government keep pushing this meme

I realize today’s youth haven’t educated very well by the government schools. I realize they don’t know history of where the U.S. stands in history, but the constant push against any Republican by the media should be viewed skeptically by the rational human.

Hey, all the fair minded people of Nevada, can’t you do better than this? It’s getting like Massachusetts was with Kennedy. I know you guys don’t want him back in your state, but come on. Why should the rest of us have to hear him?
