FOR DEMOCRATS, IGNORANCE IS PURE BLISS…


Now I must admit that if there is one thing that the left has been very successful at doing in this country, it is to have produced a population that now consists of millions of adults who are absolutely clueless about not only how their government is supposed to work, but about who it is that they have put in charge of it.  But it gets even worse because they have also allowed themselves to have become thoroughly convinced that it is somehow in their best interest to literally vote away their freedoms and to place their government in near complete control of their lives.  Now I wouldn’t mind it if their ignorance effected only their lives and the lives of those they claim to care about, but it doesn’t.  It also effects my life and the lives of those I hold dear.  And that’s what really pisses me off.   

Which brings me to Nancy Pelosi, another Democrat who is both pathetically corrupt and patently dishonest.  You see, it was decrepit old gas bag that said, "I think that many of them are supporting him for the reason that Republicans support Republicans. They don't want to pay their fair share of taxes."  I guess I would ask ‘old Botox’ what exactly equates to being one’s fair share when talking about the paying of taxes?   Because if we’re being honest here, the vast, and I do mean vast, majority of the Democrat Party base pays absolutely nothing in the way of income tax.  So how can paying zero in taxes be seen as being anyone’s “fair share?”  And yet, it’s these very same parasites who pay nothing but who are on the receiving end of a ‘tax refund’ each and every year.

Last month Donald Trump told Fox News's Bill O'Reilly, "I would mind paying taxes a lot less if our politicians knew how to spend the money, but they don't. They waste the money. They don't know what they are doing with the money. Some cases they do, and they have bad motives."  Well I would argue that our politicians know exactly what they’re doing with the money they demand from those us who are not members of one of those select groups able to escape the long reach of the ‘Tax Man.’  They are motivated solely by their desire to buy more and more votes.  There is no level of fiscal responsibility, whatsoever, in government at any level.  Spending is never to be cut, only increased.  And whenever there’s shortfall, rather than cut spending, taxpayers are forced to fork over more.  

And it was in a recent interview on the Public Broadcasting System (PBS), another example of how your tax dollars are wasted, that old Pelosi complained about what she called Republican obstructionism in Congress. "The American people are "really tired of obstruction in Washington."  But what this old hag refers to as being obstruction is what I refer to as being those whom ‘I’ voted for actually doing their job to preserve what’s left of my country.  And as far as I’m concerned Republicans have done little more than cave on just about every important issue that has come before them.  But she insisted saying, "And what Republicans have said, and they've said it even today, that they're prepared to obstruct. They call it checks and balances, but it's obstruction."  No, it’s not!

Pelosi noted that Democrats need to win 30 seats to take control of the House of Representatives.  "Right now, I think we're at least 20, so at least 20, so we're talking about single digits. We're fighting it out for single digits."  She said if people turn out in large numbers to vote for Hitlery, "The better it is for us."  And if Democrats were to win a majority in the House, Pelosi was asked, "What's the agenda?"  To which she responded, "Trickle-down economics versus middle-class economics, to increase the purchasing power of middle income families, consumer confidence, to inject demand into the economy, create jobs, bigger paychecks."  If the last 8 years have shown us anything it’s that the Democrats have zero ability when it comes to anything even remotely related to economics.

Pelosi also said, "The two other things that I frankly -- I tell you this, you're my friend. You -- I think we trust what I say to you. I'd rather lose the election if they said today we'll pass a gun violence protection bill and immigration bill.”  And she added, "Those two things are very important to the safety of the American people, which we have taken an oath to protect and defend,* and also the character of America, a nation constantly invigorated by newcomers to our country. Those two things are very important.”  She said, "Now, what would be on the agenda to begin with will depend on, of course, the president of the United States."  And God willing we will be able to dodge the Hitlery bullet that would surely finish this country off, economically, morally and internationally speaking.

Pelosi was asked why Democrats didn't take up those two issues -- guns and immigration -- when they had a congressional majority in the first two years of Barry’s administration.  She said, "But the issues are so much more high profile now. President Lincoln said public sentiment is everything. We did a lot, you know, we did the Recovery Act. We did the Affordable Care Act. We did that Wall Street reform, we did repeal of Don't Ask-Don't Tell, we ended discrimination in the workplace with -- we did a large number of things.”  She added, "But in terms -- and we only had 60 votes for a short period of time because Senator Specter was a Republican until like June, Senator Franken didn't become certified until like July, Senator Kennedy died in August, end of July, August.”

She said, "So, you know, I think we could do them now. I think we would have Republican votes to do them now. I think they would pass right now if the Speaker put them on the floor. I think it would be enough Republican votes, bipartisan support for background checks for guns, no fly, no buy.”  I have no doubt there are enough RINOs to help pass gun control.  I’ve never been able to quite figure out why, just like the immigration issue, we need all manner of new laws.  We currently have more than 25,000 gun laws already on the books and yet we need more?  Why not simply enforce the ones we already have?   And what Pelosi probably means is Second Amendment repeal and gun confiscation. That's what Hitlery plans to do by stuffing the SCOTUS with communists who will destroy the Bill of Rights.

Why do Democrats always insist upon working to pass more and ever-stricter gun control laws, as well as immigration reform, when the majority of the American people are not in favor of making such changes?  As I mentioned earlier we have laws on the books, lots of laws, all we need to do is to start enforcing them.  Why do Democrats always feel they know what’s best for us?  That’s easy, it’s because they are insufferably absorbed with the legend of themselves in their own mind.  And how is it, exactly, that they are going to increase my purchasing power when my paycheck will be less due to the tax increases needed to pay for their growing list of "free" stuff?  Whatever happened to government of the people, for the people and by the people?  We the people let it slip away, that’s what.
