A Detrimental Proposal.

It has been a while since I’ve written anything. After the beyond depressing election night, I needed a break. I didn’t feel like writing about gloating liberal morons cabbage patching in corners. But alas, here we go again. Let’s talk about Obama’s new proposal and what a complete JOKE it is.

It has three elements, but the non-fox media tends to ignore all three components. First, Obama wants to raise taxes on the top 2 percent of income earners, increasing revenue by $1.6 trillion.  This is the only part that the democrats will talk about, because they can easily convince the sheep-like common man to believe that the nasty, evil Republicans oppose it.

The highest tax-bracket is currently 35 percent. The hike would change that to approximately 39.6 percent. The democrats have an easy argument here, or so they think. “The Republicans only care about the rich. They already have money. Stop protecting them! They need to pay their fair share!” When you take state taxes, payroll taxes, capital gains taxes, people can end up paying well over 50 percent of their income in taxes! I don’t care how much money you have. It is absolutely CRIMINAL to take nearly 50 percent of someone’s money they earned! The government does not have a right to half your income. See? That’s the difference between conservatives and liberals.

 Conservative values are based on principle. Liberal values are based on feelings. Does it feel right to have the rich pay more because they’re well off? It does to them. Conservatives believe in fiscal responsibility. Taking more of the rich's money does not replace irresponsible government spending, which brings me to my next point.

Obama’s proposal also includes $50 billion in stimulus money. Because, as we can all see, the last few have done the economy wonders.  Honestly, I’m wondering how the Obama Administration can be so stupid. Stimulus hasn’t worked in the past. It isn’t working now, and it won’t help in the future.  Keynesian economics has failed miserably every time it’s been tried. Not to mention how much debt it will add. Another reason the Republicans oppose it.

Last, but certainly not least, Obama’s proposal includes enabling him to have executive privilege to raise the debt ceiling. The President believes his intellect is far above that of Congress, therefore, he should not have to negotiate with them or answer to them.

A combination of more tax increases, more stimulus spending, and more unchecked Obama is a recipe for absolute chaos- that’s why Republicans oppose it. The democrats will continue to whine and say the republicans only care about the wealthy and are halting progress. Insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results. Hence, the liberals are insane (and many other words I should refrain from saying, because I’m a lady).

The liberals are turning America to ruin, and the fact that we have to sit back and watch them dissect the country we love so much makes my blood boil. There is hope, of course. I will always believe there’s hope. The fundamental differences between conservatives and liberals can be seen with this bogus proposal. It’s a proposal based on feelings, not on principle and common sense. Unfortunately, common sense isn’t so common.

"Liberal Democrats are inexorably opposed to tax cuts, because tax cuts give people more power, and take away from the role of government." – Rush Limbaugh

A Silent Revolt

“If you love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.” –Samuel Adams. That encompasses my entire set of feelings right now. I’m extremely disappointed in America. I’m disappointed in my generation.  To those who don’t want to hear about politics anymore, get over it. It’s a big deal, whether you choose apathy and ignorance or not. It DOES affect you, and I love America way too much to shut up about it.

To Liberals: You voted for four more years of economic downfall. Four more years of national debt. Four more years of Iranian nuclear development. Four more years of bigger government. Four more years of a welfare state. Four more years of President who holds no regard for the Constitution. The blood of American patriots was shed for you, and you willing vote what they fought for so hard away. You have voted for an unrecognizable America. You claim to stand up for the little guy. You claim to be educated. You claim to be compassionate. But you’re not. You’re creatures of entitlement. You believe the government is the answer to everything. It isn’t. You like to give away other people’s money, because it makes you feel better about your personal lack of giving. Eventually, you will run out of other people’s money. You do everything out of the “ideal” of the greater good, but it’s not. You encourage the break down of society. You scoff at traditional values- ones that made this country as exceptional as it is. You want an America the Founding Fathers would never even recognize. Perhaps you deserve four more years of economic hell and a welfare state. No complaining. No blaming. You made your bed, now go lie in it.

To my fellow Conservatives: Yes. This is a huge disappointment. I’m upset, and I’m sure you are as well. But this isn’t over. Our job is more important than EVER now. The liberal drones are going to prance around like they had some big accomplishment. They’re going to tell you you’re wrong. But you’re not. You’re the only hope for America. I was polite the first four years of the Obama Presidency. I’m not anymore. Political correctness brought us into this mess, and it will only make it worse. Speak up. Educate people. We still have the House of Representatives. It will keep up from complete and utter mayhem for the next two years at least. I know it’s hard, but look at it this way. Maybe America needs four more years of economic hell and “international tolerance” to wake up. It’s a shame, for sure. Trust God. He is greater than the government. He alone is whom we need to put our trust in. We can’t trust in government. The Obama economy can crumble around us, but God’s people will prosper. We are protected. We are the only hope left in America, guys. We are the salt of the earth. We cannot allow America to go down so easily by way of ignorance and stupidity. Apathy and ignorance is the enemy of America. Stand for what you know is true, even if you’re in the minority. Don’t be afraid. Speak up.
