Democrat CHANGE

In the last election, to fill seats in Congress, the Democrats were able to once again deceive their way into power. While campaigning, their promises included to decrease spending, reduce the national deficit, and represent the lower and middle-income families.

Prior to the election, the United States economy was at an all time high with a historically low unemployment rate and a large increase in small business owners. People were investing money, spending money, and the housing market was progressing faster than ever with a republican President and Congress.

Now, two years after the Democrat takeover we have a drastically increased federal budget, the housing market is falling, the stock market is unreliable, the price of oil is unaffordable, and the unemployment rate is climbing. We also have two democratic Presidential candidates, relying on Americans gullibility, proclaiming President Bush to be the cause of all of these disasters. If you buy into it, without checking the facts, you’re an idiot!

Senator Obama has been on the campaign trail delivering his consistent load of rhetoric without any details, talking about all of the subsidies he plans to provide to Americans if he’s elected. The first question that comes to mind, for a person with the ability to think independently, is how will all of these be paid for? His answer has been by taxing the upper 25% income bracket. Sounds good to me, the $4,000 subsidy for “all” students, increased healthcare subsidies, and an enormous raise in subsidies to the poor, and all other 188 plans Obama has proposed will all be paid for. I’m convinced, and it was such an easy fix, why didn’t someone think of this before?

Unfortunate for Senator Obama, Senator Spend-O-Rama, I’ve been enjoying my days by watching C-SPAN and the republicans in Congress have let the cat out of the bag. Of a hundred or so of Obama’s proposals will total roughly $1.4 trillion dollars over five years and the proposed tax hike will generate $256 billion over the same time period. Senator Obama does have a college degree so his educated math skill must be better than mine, because I don’t think the taxes will pay for his proposals, or come anywhere close. This could mean one of two things, either Obama is just deceiving the American people by telling them what they want to hear, or he intends to continue the Democrat policy of spend, spend, spend until we, as a country, are bought out by Mexico. It is up to you if you want to believe empty rhetoric that could never be implemented financially or demand the truth.

For those Obama supporters who may feel betrayed by these facts, you shouldn’t be as upset as the Senator Clinton supporters. It appears that Senator Clinton is on a mission to not only bankrupt the American citizens, but also the rest of the world. It doesn’t even require 100 of her programs to match Obama’s spending proposals, with socialized healthcare, increasing unnecessary government jobs the American people don’t want, Fuel reimbursement subsidies to pay for gas, and her generous offer to pay off the mortgages of the small percentage of Americans who have irresponsibly entered into a financial contract they can’t afford.

All of these proposals by the two democratic candidates are quire clearly rhetoric and there is unlikely any real intentions behind them. Some of the programs may actually be implemented by the affect they will have on people is far different than what is being envisioned by the American constituents. Democrats are well known for their spend, spend, spend policy so I’m sure both candidates will stick to that but many of their ideas expressed on the campaign trail have only been spoken in an attempt to generate votes.

The Republicans and the President did lean far from their “limit spending” policies over the years prior to the 2006 elections, one major reason why so many seats were lost to Al-Qaeda, I mean Democrats. The Dems were able to project the image that the GOP were irresponsibly spending money, hard earned by the tax payers, but in reality, that’s what Democrats do. They showed wonderful pictures and graphs representing this irresponsible spending since Bush has taken office and hope you won’t be able to figure out that 9/11 happened and the costs needed to recover while increasing national defenses to provide all Americans safety. Instead, they would have you think the money was wasted on pointless programs restricting an individual’s liberties, sorry, that’s what the Dems do.

Anyway, back to expand on the Democrats spend, spend, spend policy, regardless of the promises to balance the budget and decrease the deficit, the proposed FY 2009 Federal Budget will set a record as the largest budget in world history. They have taken the President’s budget and raised it by a bunch of billions, which is undoubtedly proof of their penis envy, and still managed to decrease veteran spending by a billion dollars and not provide any reform to existing policies.

With a record breaking budget proposal, there is no entitlement reform calling for increased efficiency and minimizing the continued fraud costing Americans hundreds of billions of dollars that Congress can’t get back. The words of the Republican representative from Wisconsin, Paul Ryan, rang true to anyone listening when he said “With such a large increase in budget and no calls for reform tells the American tax payers that you think you are doing such a good job at spending their hard earned money that you gave yourself a raise!”

The Democrats stood their ground firmly and explained the success of their budget is that by 2012 the budget would be balanced, without raising taxes. What they actually mean by this, is they will let the Bush tax cuts expire and it’s not the same as a tax increase, and then they will raise the taxes of the wealthy in some cases up to 49%. Can you imagine making any amount of income, regardless how large or small, and have the Federal government take almost half. Please remember, that doesn’t include state taxes. What this means is that a family makes $250,001 a year could end up only making $100,000 a year or less after both state and Federal taxes. Well that seems fair, and forget about them paying for any student loans or bills generated as a requirement to their road to financial success.

The truth is obvious to anyone willing to open their eyes. The Democrats were elected to reduce spending and haven’t, reduce the deficit which won’t happen, and 99% of what they were elected for was built on lies. They are now looking to win the White House on the same false promises and continue to blame President Bush for an economical disaster that didn’t develop until two years after the Democrats took control of the Congress. Both Senator Obama and Clinton know how Congress works, and they should be very well educated in the fact that Congress controls spending and the President only approves it. They know because their budget from FY 2008 was the record holder until the release of the FY 2009 budget.

If you feel comfortable with the idea of having no government programs twelve years from now other than entitlement programs, meaning no research, no military, no education system, then keep supporting your beloved Democrats. These beloved Democrats who are in bed with the thousands of special interest groups and profit from all of the corrupt Unions throughout the country. It’s fine to be unprejudiced against minorities, but to pass legislature giving them the upper hand on the average American is unconstitutional. Somehow the Dems have convinced union workers that they are on their side but in truth, they profit from them. If they supported them, they why did Dems pass legislature resulting in the removal of the right of employees to a “secret” vote on whether they wanted to be represented by a union or not. With the loss of this right, innocent workers are being harassed and families threatened when people vote against union representation. Does this seem fair to you? Why would Democrats take away an individual’s right to a secret vote, just like all other elections, if they were looking at the interests of the worker?

There are obviously many reasons why I despise Democrat views, but the one that sends me over the edge is their constant vigilance against oil companies. There are hundreds of “Green” special interest groups in their pockets and they keep pushing to stop using oil. It’s a great idea, but in order to come off of oil, you must have an adequate and cheap replacement ready for sale on the shelves at your local Home Depot. You can’t allow prices to continue driving up and say we need to stop using, without the replacement tried and proven. We need to drill American oil reserves and continue to invest in new technologies, which should provide us drastic wallet relief. You can’t just let prices soar and tell Americans not to use oil as an adequate response, that isn’t fixing anything.
Anyway, if you love the horrible work of your Democrats then keep voting for them. If this garbage continues, I’m fleeing to Canada like Bill Clinton at the mention of the Draft.
