I am amazed what is being done to our country. We are in two wars and our economy is trashed, however, the Democrats are using this hardship to grab power by the government. Am I the only one that sees this so clearly?
To listen to the administration, it isn’t the war, terrorists, economy, but healthcare. What’s wrong with healthcare? They say it is because it isn’t completely controlled by the government. And they use the lame excuse that the economy will not recover unless the government controls it. While our military is waiting on troops for their survival and success, congress has completely turned their back on them and focusing on their pet healthcare plan as if that is the biggest concern. It is not and was not.
Now they are going on a power grab of the Internet. They are now going to tax it with the excuse to protect our children they need to police it and the new policing needs to be paid for by internet users (that means, taxpayers or in easier terms, the American people).
These reasons are too lame and it seems clear to me that the Democrats needs people to be “dependent” on them so they will be reelected. They did this with the poor and minorities starting in the 70′s and I think they are trying to include everyone. It took Bill Clinton to overturn that since only a Democrat could remove what Democrats damaged. Will we be so lucky this next time? Once they control our lives and we are dependent on them for survival, we will elect them based on their promises.
Am I wrong on this? If so, explain to me how I have become so misguided, without being insulting… just give me the facts.
jennifer, I appreciate your insight and I disagree on your opinion of “no rush to send more troops.”
Too many don’t understand that those who graduate from the war colleges aren’t simply guys that learn how to shoot. These schools are every bit as in depth as schools of physics or math. These guys are the “experts” on war… not politicians. We saw how Johnson, that thought because he was elected president had some special knowledge about war and extended our fight in Vietnam until we were defeated.
Obama has been told by his advisor and other retired generals agree, that time (rush) is important since there will be a ‘point of no return.’ It was clearly stated by McChrystal. When you don’t take “experts” advice, you act as a fool. We will lose this war based on a person that only has a degree in Law because he thinks like many football fans do… that they are just as good as the experts.
It’s simply Monday morning quarterbacking… the same charge that leveled against Johnson for losing the war.
So while I disagree with you on the above, you could be right and I could be wrong on the rush to send troop. However, as far as claiming Democrats are not Socialists, that’s nonsense. You really have to have your head in the sand to printed otherwise. This is 2009. If you want to pull out history books for a time long ago, you could make that case, but we are all living through it today and it is clear their agenda is socialism. It’s no secret, although many Democrats are ashamed of the term just like they were ashamed of the term “liberal” a number of years ago.

better to be a social ism than a capital ism pig
You are misinterpreting what is happening in Washington, very much so. Without getting emotional, I would lilke to respond. The reason for health care reform is a financial benefit to all citizens of this country. The government plan is only a part of the reform, the part that individuals can subscribe to if they wish.
Congress hasnt turned their backs on the military. There is no rush to send more troops if it is decided that will not change conditions and that is what is under debate between the Pentagon and White House. McChrystol has his reputation at stake and has been speaking out of line about this which you dont do.
You are wrong about the philosophy of the Democrats. They do not want the poor to be dependent. Their intent was and is to lift the poor out of poverty into the middle class which they have done. There are always those who abuse this system. That happens in every strata of society, rich and poor.
The worst comment you made is what is currently being bandied about without basis and that is calling Democrats Socialists. What basis do you have that there is any socialism implemented? We have not nationalized industry and business. We still have private enterprise. We already have some government medical plans. Let me know so we can discuss it.
The liberals refuses to open their eyes. They somehow have become convinced that the historic oppressors of the people (government) are benevolent.
The so called stimulus package was simply a move to nationalize American banks and industry. This was not a bail out at all, it was forced on the banks. Many banks told the government they were fine and did not want any bail out money. The Federal Government forced those banks to take government money. Now the government is forcing those banks and industries to abide by directives coming from White House controlled bureaucrats. Salary’s are now controlled by the White House because “they accepted bail out money.”
This is Socialism, Marxism, Communism, Russian style. Choose which ever word you wish to use, it is the take over of the businesses of the country by the government.
Health care is next. This is not about health care, it is about the government controlling a huge slice of the American economy. This slice will of course give government much more power over the people. In the name of efficiency and cost savings, government will tell us what to eat, when to exercise, and will control our bodies. Remember the left screaming keep your government hands off my body? Now they don’t seem to mind at all. Very strange.
And now the internet and wireless devices. China controls the internet for it’s people. China is a very oppressive communist government. Our liberals are now saying there is nothing wrong with our government being like the government of China with all their human rights abuses.
I am amazed that the liberals cannot see what is coming. A complete loss of individual liberty and freedom. What will they think when after the government amasses all this power and control, the conservatives they hate take control of government and use these new powers against them? I think the howling and crying will be heard on the moon.
