A brief
reminder of the past: Republicans ran
McCain against Obama in 2008. Obama won
handily by promising “change”. We, of
course, didn’t know that change would be to socialist principles. The result was we watched our country decline
into the similar state of Great Britain.
In 2012,
realizing where the country was heading, we opted for change—we voted for those
senators who promised to counter Obamacare and cure the illegal immigrant
population.
Turns out we
voted for those who had no intention of carrying out their promises. The result was a Speaker forced to resign and
a new Speaker who appeared to be too ready to follow the old one. He did offer some agreement after enough
noise from the people.
So what have
we today?
From the
uproar within the party, we have seriously stepped on tender toes. To which I say, “Congratulations”. I couldn’t agree more.
For too many
years we have blindly followed those in the leadership of the party who told us
we were getting a large serving of, “conservatorism”—when obviously, we
weren’t. It was just more of the same
and, in too many cases, too often a compromise that handed us a socialist
nightmare, ala Obamacare, whose motto shall forever be, “WE MUST PASS THE BILL
TO SEE WHAT’S IN IT!”
Have there
ever been 10 more stupid words? --Ever?
“Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or
any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure…”, to borrow from Abe
Lincoln. And it’s true—we are engaged in
a civil war, minus the violence of same.
If we are to control the party and their wants and desires, we MUST make
our voices heard. To do so, we must pick
our own candidate and NOT let the party, through flim-flammery, name another
RINO. To that end, it has become
apparent that Donald Trump is the choice of the people.
The saddest
part of that truth is the number of people who, for unapparent and unnamed
reasons, insult, berate and castigate the man, without apparent proof of wrong
doing.
Trump, an
obvious choice of the people at this stage, is not guilty of the corruption of
a Hillary Clinton and has not been caught in major lies as she has. In fact, despite the best efforts of
democrats AND republicans, there are NO serious charges to be levied against
the man, other than he is rich, finances his own campaign and has four
bankruptcies in his history.
Oh, yes, --he
also espouses a solution to immigration, trade reform, taxes and the
economy. All worries from the past eight
years.
The only
real complaint those who dislike Trump have is he, “acted childish” in the last
debate. That charge, of course, totally
overlooks the fact the man has had a bullseye on his chest ever since the first
debate.
The
childishness was first displayed by the apparent distress of Rubio and Cruz,
who banded together in their childish attempt to somehow bring Trump to his
knees. According to all polls, it didn’t
work.
It is sad
that, at a time when the people need to stand together behind one candidate,
they choose to divide themselves into bickering over an “outsider” a RINO
and/or a loser.
And we
thought we were getting smarter.
