No One Cares about Pork

Well, I think that Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has the campaign slogan for the Democrats (Youtube – Schumer):

“… focuses on those little, teeny,  yes “porky” ammendments… the American People don’t care”

So, I think that when people ask why the bill was so big Democrats should say “Because you really don’t care”.  Maybe that can even be the next campaign slogan “Socialism… Because you don’t care”.

Republicans swoon over Obama

Although I am sure that Obama is a great speaker and is probably very persuasive, it scares me that Republicans are quick to throw principle aside in order to get along.  I am NOT saying they should simply be obstacles, they should stand on principle.

In the article “GOP-ers Swoon Over Obama Despite Differences” it appears to me that most Republicans are more concerned about perceived bi-partisanship and being like by the new President than having any principles.  The following comment shows that Republicans are NO conservatives:

“There’s real desire in this room to figure a way back to prosperity,” Inglis wrote on Twitter. “[The president] and Republicans here [are] expressing deep concern about unemployment.”

Conservatives (not Republicans) would say that the correct way back to prosperity has nothing to do with government.  It seems that Republicans do not agree with that view.

I also think that Republicans are going to learn a lesson fairly quickly from a pretty solid political being.  Obama is going to get what he wants with or without them.  Any one remember the comment “I won”.

I think that the GOP better learn that the base is not looking at this so-called bi-partisanship as a positive thing.  We aren’t electing Republicans to be well liked.  We are electing them to have some values and principles.  I think that many of us are going to be sorely disappointed.

Maverick = DemLite/RINO

Well it’s nice to see that McCain and the media have kissed and made up.  It’s also nice to see that McCain is back to being a “Maverick”.  They didn’t really think so during the election but they do now.  What changed?  Oh yeah, McCain was trying to defeat the media’s messiah and now he’s trying to build a gigantic house with him!  The thing that McCain does/doesn’t (depending on your perception of his intent) understand is the only time that he is “Maverick” is when he acts as a traitor to his party and “crosses party lines”.  But that is quite easy for someone with no spine or opinion.  The exact reason why the media loves him is the reason he lost the Presidential election.

Senate Gets Reacquainted With McCain the Maverick

I heard someone say it best – “I wish that McCain would cross the aisle and stay there”.  It is time for Republicans with principles that are outside of political favor to be the leaders in this country.  Then the article uses the real “conservatives” to applaud him: Sen. Susan Collins (RINO-ME), Sen. Lindsey Graham (RINO-S.C.),  Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman(??-CT).  Quite the stirring applause by “TRUE” conservatives.  /ROFL

So the chameleon has changed back to his original color.  A sickening yellow.
