Republicans Cave
Boehner Snatches Defeat From Jaws of Victory
NBC News is reporting this morning that Congress is "very close" to a deal that will raise the debt limit 2.8 TRILLION dollars over the next two years.
The deal will allegedly require $1 TRILLION in cuts over the next two years, with another 1.8 TRILLION dollars in cuts to be "recommended" by a joint Congressional "Committee."
The "Committee" would be "required" to recommend cuts by this November, and should this committee fail to agree, cuts in Defense and Medicare would be automatic and decimate both programs.
Who'd get the blame for these cuts? Why the Republican's of course, who the Democrats are already blaming for "wanting to kill our Senior citizens." Cutting the Military budget is the liberal Democrats dream, if they had their way they'd gut our Defense capabilities to zero.
Additionally, this deal is designed to avoid any further discussion on the Debt and Deficit until after the 2012 elections, and gives Obama everything he asked for.
Once again, the Republican Party is snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, and is subsequently handing Obama the 2012 election by taking his debt-laden spending spree of $5.7 TRILLION DOLLARS since taking office, off the table.
Way to go, Boehner. Kick the ball down the road and let future generations deal with this mess, now that's leadership alright.

Republicans: Vote NO On Tax Deal Compromise
Democrats Demonstrate Once Again Why Voters Rebuffed Them
Democrats in Congress have now so polluted the tax extention compromise that Republicans should now vote against the deal made with Obama earlier this week.
By extending unemployment benefits another 13 months creating another welfare program and extending the "Obama tax cuts" which do nothing but re-distribute wealth to the lazy class in this country, the net effect to our economy will be to simply extend the economic misery of the last two years. Simply stated, all we're doing is prolonging the economic agony and uncertainty another two years until the next election cycle.
So here's my suggestion to the Republican Party, if they have the backbone to take it: vote NO on the Bush tax-cut extensions, and let the Democrats go down in flames in the waning days of this Congress. They're already in self-destruct mode, give them the rest of the rope they need to fully hang themselves.
In voting NO on the tax cut compromise, the message to the American people, and the Tea Party is simple: Democrats have once again demonstrated why they were voted out of power in the House, and their margins minimalized in the Senate. Democrats once again have polluted a piece of legislation designed to help the American people of all income levels in this time of economic distress by loading up the bill with pork and special spending for their political interests.
Rather than pass this piece of crap bill, Republicans should tell the American people that they will wait until the next Congress to pass a permanent, clean tax-bill that will benefit all Americans and small businesses. Then, walk off the podium and leave town until the next Congress.
The internal destruction of the Democrat party that would be sure to follow will cement in the voters minds for the next election just who was responsible for this mess, the Democrats. They've had the last two years with super-majorities in both houses to deal with this problem, to push it off to the lame duck session and try to blame Republicans for their own failure is laughable on its face, and transparent for all to see.
Republicans, do you have the testicular fortitude to take my advice?

Glen Beck at CPAC: A Masters Course in American History
Progressivism, The Disease That Ails America
Typically, I think Glen Beck's a nut, a loose cannon, an emotional roller-coaster waiting to careen off my TV screen crashing into a pile of blubber in my living room whenever his show is on. Really, sometimes I think the guy is just the other side of being able to hold himself together long enough to make a salient point.
But last night at CPAC, he put on a Masters Course in American History. It was nothing short of a brilliantly articulated tour of the history of America's19th and 20th centuries and our political system. Don't think for a second he blamed our country's ills on just the Democrats, rather some of his harshest criticism he left for the Republican Party. Why? Because a Progressive (or "Liberal", "Communist", "Socialist", "Marxist" or "Redistributionist") by any other name is still a PROGRESSIVE.
Progressives have called themselves all these different things over the last 100 years or so, yet their mission has remained steadfastly the same: to whittle away at the Constitution of the United States of America, and "re-make" it into something else.
For the rest, you'll need to watch the video and we promise you won't be disappointed.

Obama To Ram Through Health Care Bill
Approval Rating At All Time Low
Picture says a thousand words. Obama’s approval hits an all-time low days after announcing the Democrats would force through health care using a seldom used reconciliation amendment to have the House of Represenatives vote on the Senate’s health care reform bill, in a last, fatal attempt to force all American’s into Socialized medicine.
Can Obama go lower? YES HE CAN!

The State Of Obamunism
Economy Falling Apart, Obama Calls For End to “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell”
Talk about being out of touch with the pain that many American’s are going through in this, the worst recession since the Great Depression. Hell, we may as well call it Depression II.
Obama will say anything to the American people, but don’t let yourselves be fooled.
When Obama says he will "freeze" spending during the State of the Union, he's "freezing" spending at 2009 levels which means we will continue to have massive social spending as far as the eye can see, as long as this bozo occupies the White House.
The total amount of money "frozen" amounts to less than one half of one percent of our NATIONAL DEBT over the next TWENTY YEARS. Obama himself has added 4 TRILLION of that debt himself in his first year as President.
Freeze spending? Not exactly. Locked in Socialism and massive Federal Spending is more like it.
Every time Obama says he’ll “freeze spending” he’s calling you and I stupid because he thinks we’ll fall for his ruse. A real freeze in spending would be to roll back Congressional spending to pre 2007 levels, before the Democrats took over Congress and EXPLODED the Federal Deficit by 1.5 TRILLION DOLLARS in 2009 and 1.7 TRILLION DOLLARS in 2010.
That would be a real freeze in spending.
Obama and the Democrats think you’re stupid by freezing the equivalent of 1 half of one percent of our National Debt over the next Twenty years.
Don’t fall for it, especially those of you who voted for this ass-clown in the first place. You know what they say … fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
This is why Obama's new name is "LIAR LIAR!"
