Can you imagine China and India sitting around together drinking beer, laughing at the crazy Americans. I can see them high-fiving and knuckle-bumping each other wondering why the greatest nation in the world is self-destructing? I can sum that up in three words, LIBERALISM IN CHARGE! On one hand, the democrats complain about American companies moving offshore and outsourcing jobs. On the other hand, they regulate, tax and bully companies where they can't be profitable and successful. You can't have it both ways. I am in favor of protecting the environment. But I am also in favor of surviving in a global economy. China and India are dedicated to growing their economies and exports. The Obama administration doesn't care about the economy, they care about votes. Why would the administration put more pressure on businesses with unemployment rising to 10%? The minimum wage increase went into effect two days ago. That will hamper small business alone. Energy plants are going to take a hit along with coal mining operations. However, as soon as we have one power outage or rates go up, the population will scream bloody murder. President Obama should tell the environmental lobby to take a vacation. They will still support him. I would hate to be graduating college with a lot of school debt and attempting to find job let alone a career in this economy. I cringe when I hear Pelosi or Reed talk about growing the economy. Do they think we are idiots? Their agenda doesn't take in account a prospering economy. The right to emit carbon will be the new commodity the government will broker. When the higher cost trickle down to you and me, it will be late. Speaker Pelosi will still be traveling from DC to San Francisco every weekend emitting tons of pollution in her(our) big government jet. Can someone answer this question? Why can the politicians, Hollywood elite and the upper crust travel around in G-5 private jets and Escalades and we, the American public is expected to drive smart cars, Priuses and change our light bulbs?
Quote of the day:
"I am a Conservative to preserve all that is good in our Constitution, a Radical to remove all that is bad. I seek to preserve property and to respect order, and I equally decree the appeal to the passions of the many or the prejudices of the few."
Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881), campaign speech at High Wycombe, England, November 27,1832.
