Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean said Monday that he’s looking forward to one party controlling all aspects of government, despite GOP charges that it would be a disastrous Nov. 4th outcome.
“Republicans ha
d a chance to rule. They failed miserably. I think it’s time to give the other party a chance,”
Dean said on MSNBC.
Republicans recently warned there would be grave consequences for the country if Democrats were in charge of both chambers of Congress and the White House. At a rally in Ohio, for instance, GOP presidential nominee Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) said he would provide a balance to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), who plan to increase taxes.
But Dean dismissed the argument, saying: “You cannot trust Republicans with your money. They will borrow and spend, borrow and spend, borrow and spend.”
Howard Dean has completely missed the whole concept of “We The People” and the ideal that government only exist by the consent of the governed. The statement that the Republicans had a chance to “rule” shows his complete ignorance of how America really works, and why having a ruling party is very, very bad for our liberties. By the way I do not know of republicans who would want to have a second bill of rights or one that would love to stack the court with
anti-constitutional judges who would legislate from the bench. The fact that he even said “I think it is time to give the other party a chance” really shows the pathology that has been endemic with the democrat party for a very long time. The Idea that some one has to rule also shows that the democrats are only interested in power, just for the sake of having power. This is the same party that wants to destroy this economy with “wealth redistribution” and “fairness,” yeah, the Kulacks (Russian peasant middle class) found out about redistribution and fairness in the new Soviet Russia.
The Idea that we need a ruling class is nothing more than a mad power grab, and believe me when I say this, they will stop at nothing to destroy the liberties that our Constitution and Bill of Rights grant us. Howard Dean sees the “little” people as in need of being ruled, this is where basic conservatism and Dean part ways. True Conservatism consist of the individual choice without forced external influence or hype. It consists of being responsible for your own self, so that you can also help others; lets face if you are sick you can not effectively help others heal. Our country has had many who had nothing, find a job or skill, and exploit natural talents, and turn it into opportunity and wealth. You do not find that in other countries, as a matter of fact a lot of places try to stifle creative people and destroy opportunity under the guise of “fairness” and loyalty to the “state.” Dangerous and counterrevolutionary words, I know.
But if you like the democrats having a super majority, then you did enjoy the 70’s and the Carter administration. Remember Howard Dean is the guy who did not want to play "hide the Salami."
This November vote what will be right for America and not for social expediency, and carry these same thoughts into local and state elections as well; it is the only way to root out the cancer that has manifested itself in our body of politics.
Read between the fingers America!
d I only found Barack Obama and no John McCain. I also noticed a lot of Black American books also. On the surface this may not seem like a big deal or they just want to capitalize on this historic election. Then why do they not offer books on McCain or for that matter Sara Palin, she could be the first female Vice President (that too is historic, yes.) But I feel that the wave of Obama-mania may be blinding some from giving a fair and balanced diet of information. An even more recent unfair representation of information has come from The New York Times. They did a hit piece on Cindy McCain describing her as frail, weak, and a princess Dianna Wanna-bee. Apparently they were not too concerned about her feelings, but I suppose they did just as harsh a story about Michelle Obama…,oh wait…, they did not. Anyhow this is how I am seeing this race sum up; vote for the black guy or you are a racist; vote for the white guy and you are racist, and yes, we will shove the black guy down your throat. I wonder if this is what Martin Luther King was thinking when he said you should judge a man by his character and not by skin color (in case you are wondering, I am very disappointed that Condi declined to run, she would have been great.) Well you decide for yourselves, does the media seem to rally around B.O. and hate McCain or not?
hey say that Capitalism is the root cause of all our problems, then why did the stock markets tank when the Bailout bill passed. Just today (10-6-08) news that the markets nosed by 550 points. I thought that the big government types were supposed to help our markets not squelch it. Oh, by the way, London and other markets are being effected also. And I still see that the ONE person who was intimately connected with the housing debacle is still running on a promise to fix the “failed Bush economic policy” (Bush warned about this in 2001, 2003.) The guy that is running against the “I created this mess, now I will fix it” B.O.(Barack Hussein Obama,) had tried to introduce legislation in 2006 but the vote was down party lines and Senator McCain’s legislation that could have deterred this current crisis was not allowed out of the Senate Banking Committee for a vote on the floor. Y
ou can guess what party was in control at that time. It really is interesting that we need to bail out Fannie & Freddie but not Enron or Worldcom. Both an energy giant and communications giant are allowed to fail and our economy is still great and we put a few folks in prison. Oh yeah that’s right, you can link President Bush to Enron, that is why you have to destroy them. But the dems have their fingerprints all over Freddie and Fannie (aka Fannie Mac) starting with A.C.O.R.N., who by the way B.O. was on their payroll and then the venerable “my boy lollipop” Barney Frank was on the defensive end of Fannie Mac and went after the Republicans that tried to “lynch” Franklin Rae (lacy Clay (D) M.O. stated this.) Fannie Mac should be treated no different than what Enron and Worldcom were treated. Our economy was starting to rebound but then the bailout happened. This is what we have had coming our way but because of the sycophants in the media you will hear nothing but great things about this whole deal, but if this would have been a Republican mess, you would not have heard the end of at least until the next president is elected and even then you could hear the echo. So are you still convinced that more and more government is better for you and your future. The more these guys try to help the worse it gets. The Constitution put limits on what power the government can have but if you cede this power to them they will take it and not give it back. This is how tyranny begins, a vacuum of power is created and then the ones with the loudest and populist voice steps in, takes the reigns and begins to legislate (notice I did not say lead) in this vacuum, and then little by little they “suck up” more responsibility until they are so integrated with every day life that you are unable to do anything with out the permission of “Big Brother.” That is the road that the radicals in the democrat party have put us on. They believe in the power to tax is the power to control and the power to control is the ultimate high. This control can also be achieved by chaos, which is to say they (the ones who want control) create a catastrophe, do some CYA and then propose a solution to the problem. I mean they would know the solution because in the formulation of the problem you need to have a good solution to present, so you do not self-destruct in the process. Create a problem and then fix it, classic if you ask me, and many a tyrant has successfully done it, just ask Hugo. More later.
