Proposed Tax Policy: Are You As Confused As I Am?!?
Between "Clown Prince" obama's 2008-esque vacillations and Paul Ryan's partially delineated campaign tax proposals, all I know for sure is that the policies of the past four years HAVE NOT WORKED, at least in favor of the 52% "pulling-the-wagon!" I--like many conservatives--believe that the regime IS reaching it's goals. This, from "obama's America:"
"obama is not merely the presiding instrument of American decline, he is the architect of American decline. He wants America to be downsized. He wants Americans to consume less, and he would like to see out standard of living deline relative to that of other nations.... He is qauite willing to saddle future generations of Americans with crippling debt; he has spent trillions of dollars toward this end, and if he had been permitted, he would have spent trillions more. He has show no inclination, and ha no desire, to protect America's position as number one in the world; he would be content to see America as number 18, or number 67, just another country seated at the great dining table of nations."
In an Investors Business Daily op-ed piece a couple of days ago, Paul Sperry made the argument that tax cuts actually do promote increased revenue to the U.S. Treasury. Mr Sperry buttressed his argument with graphs illustrating that tax cuts during the Kennedy, the "Ronaldus-Magnus," and the George W. Bush administrations which forced the aforementioned treasury increases.
The Romney-Ryan proposed tax policy--while far more detailed than anything obama blathers about--is a bit sketchy on details. The Romney-Ryan proposal covers spending reductions, welfare reform, health and retirement security, budget enforcement as well as the highly contentious tax reform. With any tax proposal, the then-president can do little more than author his preferences and propose them to the Congress. All spending bills, including the annual budget--when the U.S. Constitution is adhered to--must originate in the House of Representatives. The House members debate the pros and cons of the executive branch's proposal, usually add lots of pork-barrel spending and send it to the Senate for their additions to the pork-barrel spending, debate, alteration, Senate approval, then Congressional approval and on to the President for signatorial approval into law.
In the up-coming Romney presidency, I see more co-operation between both houses of Congress; between the Congress and the President. In a second obama Regime, I seen more of the same failed policies--and without the constraints of a future re-election--the "Clown Prince's" destruction of America will only get exponentially WORSE!! The fact that "Clown Prince" obama couldn't get a budget passed into law for his entire reign must be the only budgetless time in modern American history!!

'plug?' Gawd'll Get'cha For That!!
I heard this from a caller-in to the "Warroom" with Quinn 'n' Rose.
The caller quoted Proverbs 29:9, thus:
[the English Standard Version]
"If a wise man has an argument with a fool, the fool only rages and laughs, and there is no quiet."
[the New American standard Bible]
"When a wise man has a controversy with a foolish man, The foolish man either rages or laughs, and there is no rest."
[the King James Bible-Cambridge Ed.]
"If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no rest."
Closed-circuit to 'plug' biden:
Maybe ya shud'da read your Bible prior to the debate, aye?!?
Neither you nor your 'boss' are even close to "the smartest guy in the room," and your attempts to be that person are very telling!!

'plug' biden Loses In Rude Demonstration
Complete with additional hair plugs, gleaming new--glow-in-the-dark--'falsies (teeth),' biden had little else to present to the viewers. Very early, he descended into outright contempt with his broad, smiling facial expressions and periodic laughter. Even though the political consensus is vice-presidential debates have little, or no affect on an election outcome, biden's snarky comments had no place in a national debate as important as this one. Much to his credit, Mr Ryan handled the EIGHT-TWO (82) interruptions with grace and aplomb:
- "Mr Vice President, I know you're under a lot of duress to make up lost ground, but I think people will be better served if we don't keep interrupting each other."
Paul Ryan--again to his credit--remained on-point, adhering to his facts and mostly ignoring the bully-ish performance of the vice-president. One thing I--as a viewer--found hard to comprehend: 'plug' biden's laughter when deaths in Afghanistan; the 'green-on-blue' murders were being discussed!! This says a lot about the regime in power; a lot about the contenders for said positions.
Now we have but to wait for the national pamphleteer corpse to skew their polls and surveys to the left, so we can find out by how much 'plug' biden "won the debate....."
Yea-RIGHT!!

obama Continues To 'Lead From Behind!'
When he's not being dragged from the golf course for a photo op in the Situation Room, "Clown Prince" obama seems very comfortable 'leading-from-behind;' this time behind 'the competition,' The Romney Ryan Presidential Campaign. Mister Claire Shipman finally answered the 'capitol of Israel' question he'd previously been ordered to either obfuscate or ignore. Aboard Air Farce One, Shipman-Carney confirmed that Mitt Romney has the right idea on the Israeli-capitol issue and it's one "Clown Prince" obama will honor til the last vote's counted.... then... Whoa, Nellie!?!?!
You disagree?!?

Mostly Painful; Very Little Truth
I found the pain of the Biden Blather to be an exercise in self-abuse; I certainly didn't have to do it.... but.... that "know your 'enemy' thingie" came into play. I do have a suggestion, though, for the attendees of future national political conventions: Wear Long-Sleeved Shirts and Blouses, P-L-E-A-S-E!! The single thing that keeps coming back to my mind's eye: a sea of flapping arm-fat!!
I expected--as did most other conservatives--the vilification of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, and in that, there were few new untruths. So not much to dwell on there. I was impressed though, the way Biden--as opposed to his normal 'gaff machine'--stuck to the socialist playbook. It was more than apparent the he'd listened to "Slick-Willie's" lies in that blather of the day before. Biden said that the obama regime had created 4.5 million jobs in their first 29 months of rule. This is such a load'a'shit!! On "Clown Prince" obama's first day at work, the U.S. economy supported 133.56 million jobs; today's job total is 133.24, actually a NET LOSS of 320,000+ jobs!!
[Blogger Note: In the interest of truth here, I must admit that Stephanie Cutter--the obama re-immaculation campaign first-deputy-assistant-underboss-and-mouthpiece--is actually telling the truth here, as obfuscated as that truth might be. The obama regime DID create 4.5 million jobs, but only after they'd driven the private sector jobs number down to 106.77 million jobs by February, 2010. Miraculously, the same sector's jobs numbers came up to the THEN-current 111.31 million jobs. So, all-in-all, it's a truth embedded in an obfuscation wrapped in an enigma!!]
Biden did the expected 'crowing' about the Government Motors takeover and subsequent 37% give-away to the very supportive auto union management! As expected, Biden essentially claimed that Mitt Romney doesn't get it; that Mitt Romney doesn't understand the whys and wherefors of political economics. No Mr Biden, I would hope that he doesn't; that's exactly the mindset we--the rightwingers--are fighting against!! Econ-101 teaches us... well, teaches conservatives.... that bankruptcy is a viable option in the business world; that it allows company reorganization; that it demands the rewriting of a failed business plan; that it demands FIRING an inept management team! None which happened during or after the government take-over.
obama Campaign Reaches 'Way Back!'
"The Amateur's" 258 pages went by really quick! Maybe it is the topic at hand; maybe it's my complete and utter dislike and distrust of America's current exalted ruler, "Clown Prince" obama. The final chapter (#22) of the book is titled "The Low Road" starting with a quote from Florida's U.S. Senator Marco Rubio:
"I'm troubled by rhetoric that pits people against each other.... We have never been a nation of haves and have-nots. We are a nation of haves and soon-to-haves, of people who have made it and people who will make it. And that's who we need to remain." --United States Senator Marco Rubio
In Chapter #22, David Axelrod lays out the only course of action available to "Clown Prince" obama's re-immaculation efforts, given his complete lack of positive accomplishments. With neither Governor Romney nor Representative Ryan having ever been divorced, Axelrod is forced to formulate new tactics to discredit the opposition to another four-years spent in an economic downward spiral. To that end, Axelrod apparently researched President Harry S Truman's come-from WAY-behind victory over Thomas E. Dewey and came away with Clark Clifford's "The Politics of 1948," memo to President Truman. I quote from "The Amateur:"
Faced with these poll numbers [Feb 24, 2012; Gallup; 51% say obama too liberal, up from 37% during 2008 campaign], David Axelrod, obama's political Merlin, has waved his magic wand again and conjured up a new persona for his candidate in 2012. Gone--poof!--is the American Messiah of 2008, who promised "hope and change." Gone--poof!--is the self-righteous figure who once proclaimed,
"If you don't have any fresh ideas, then you use stale tactics to scare voters. If you don't have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from."
Gone--poof!--is Mr. Nice Guy.
Axelrod ripped a page out of Harry Truman's 1948 playbook and fashioned a campaign for obama in which he demonizes his opponents and runs against a "Do-Nothing" Republican Congress and its wealthy supporters. You can hear an echo of "Give 'em Hell Harry" when obama declares:
"This Congress--they are accustomed to doing nothing, and they're comfortable with doing nothing, and they keep on doing nothing." Or when he says,
"My attitude is, get it done....[but] if they don't get it done, then we'll be running against a Congress that's not doing anything for the American people, and the choice will be very stark and will be very clear."
Axelrod's strategy is virtually a copy of a sixty-five-year-old memorandum written by Harry Truman's political guru, Clark Clifford, and titled "The Politics of 1948." The gist of Clifford's memo was the need to divert attention from Truman's domestic and foreign problems and make the contest a conflict between Congress and the president. In such a battle, Clifford argued,
"[t]he presidency is vastly more flexible than Congress.... There is little possibility that [the president] will get much cooperation from the Congress, but we want the president to be in a position to receive the credit for whatever they do accomplish while also being in a position to criticize the Congress for being obstructionists."
"It is obvious that Team obama is deliberately following the Clark Clifford strategy," E. Michael Young wrote in American Thinker. "Like Truman, obama called a special session of Congress to propose his American Jobs Act, knowing in advance that the Republican-controlled House would reject. Like Truman, obama used an executive order to effect social change in the military (by allowing gays to openly serve) to prop up his liberal base. And like Truman, obama is giving speeches all around the country, saying the obstructionist 'do-nothing' Republicans in Congress are blocking his jobs bill, hurting the economy, and currying favor with the wealthy elites."
Mr Klein goes on to enumerate some of the problems the re-immaculation campaign faces with the 'Clifford' approach. All-in-all, this book was a great read although it 'went by' way-too-fast! You'd do yourself a favor--no matter your place in the political spectrum--to read "The Amateur," to find what I see as the actual facts in a failed presidency.
