A New Hope - Sleepers Have Awakened
The internet headlines are a'blazing tonight boys and girls. Mr. Scott Brown pulled off an historic upset in the bluer than blue state of Massachusetts. He won deceased Senator Ted Kennedy's Senatorial seat. It's a stunning double upset. The Kennedy clan have held comfortably onto their Democrat power base for decades. And in the end, Senator Kennedy went out badly, dying a hard death from a brain tumor. And even the sympathy of a losing battle against an unstoppable and hard disease couldn't rally the sentimentalists to install an equally liberal replacement. Voters were pissed. Really pissed. And Scott Brown rode the wave. The Muppet Kermit the Frog could have been the Republican candidate, and he would have won too.
The People Spoke. The People - a small but still respectable majority - have had quite enough of Obama and his dictatorial one party system of governing. The balance of power has been restored just enough to - perchance - save the Republic. Now the Marxist Socialist Obama is going to have to govern a democracy. And we think it's gonna leave a mark.
We have seen pre-election headlines blaring that if Brown is elected, the health care "reform" disaster is doomed. Health care "reform" that was birthed by ambitious socialists who saw an opportunity as never before to move the United States closer to an outright socialist state in the midst of economic chaos. And the heavy-footed, sneering and seedy way the "Democrats" conducted themselves awoke enough sleeping Americans to the danger that we have moved back just enough to adversarial governing. It has long been reported by pundits and number crunching analysts alike that America prefers the adversarial style of government where neither party enjoys absolute power. And after observing Obama and his super majority of Democrats in action for this past year, I say A-men brothers and sisters, A-men. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. I don't want to see either party ever in a position where they can essentially rule the country in single party fashion. Adversarial government forces debate, forces compromise and that is sure a hell of a lot better than having either party ram their dogma down our throats. The outcome of adversarial government is not always perfect, but it is more perfect than absolute power held by a few who can rule in secrecy over all of us.
As far as health care goes. During the ebb and tide of the nasty games being played from the very start of Obama's brave new paradigm initiative, we have seen headline after headline about how this god-awful freaking disaster of a bill was on deaths door time and again, only to be saved at the last moment by a political bribe here and there. So, we will not consider this health care mess dead until it's really dead. Rational people might expect that after the Democrats were taken to the woodshed in Massachusetts, that they would get the message. That they will drop health care like the hot steaming cow pie it is to save themselves this coming November. But the Democratic Party is currently controlled by the far left. And health care is all about socialist ideology, and has nothing to do with solving real problems with the current system. And since it is about ideology, I will not be shocked in the slightest if the far left, lead by Obama and Reid and Pelosi, doesn't try every dirty trick in the book to get health care passed no matter what the consequences.
Obama wanted the shift to socialized medicine as a perceived feather in his historical cap. It's one of the key facets of how Obama wants his Presidency remembered. He doesn't care if more than half the country hates it. It doesn't matter if the current proposed legislation is good law or bad law - those are mear details. All that matters is EGO, and being able to say in that condescending way of his: I did this.
So, I will not breathe easy until the health care bill is dead for real. Yogi Berra says it's ain't over till it's over. He was, is, and always will be right.
Now is not the time for conservatives to get giddy, or sloppy, or let there guard down. Now is not the time to copy the Democrats and gloat. Now is the time for all good conservatives to come to the aid of their country. "Hope and change" was really lie and deceive.
We can't afford to let those newly aroused go back to sleep.......
