To answer your first question, I am somewhat deflated by this administration thus far, and since I refuse to be blindly loyal and silent as so many did during the last 8 years, I will not hold my tounge.

I think Geithner has been a disaster, I think the democrats have earned their dubious titles of inept, wishy washy, and weak. Not on terror, or any of the catch phrases, but on what they had been sent there to do.

I split off with you a tick as it relates to the socialist agenda. I think that language is far too strong for what is being proposed. I mean, we can’t even get a public option to attempt to rival the private insurance markets so that middle class families can have a true alternative to what is currently provided, which is fine if you are employed, but virtually crippling if you are not. And before everyone starts casting stones on my bleeding heart, please consider the job market worste since post WWII.

So I ask you; shouldn’t we provide for our fellow citizens what most of the secular societies of the world provides for their citizens? If the fire department required you to pay a premium (other than taxes) for their services, how appropriate would it seem if we allowed the un-insured’s apartment , or house to burn to the ground because they did not pay to have the coverage. I view healthcare the same way.

If you read my last post; you will see that I feel there is a force, far more powerful than our political leaders, and more dubious than the terrorist. I fell that if we do not do something to get the power back from the bought and paid for elected officials; then I feel we will continue to see the quality of life that we have enjoyed in this nation continue to crumble as the true elites continue to benefit from the mis interpreted passion of all of our classes.

Regarding the current administration, I wonder, in hindsight, if there is anything you might change about your comments.

Yesterday the President said to the House Democratic caucus: “Let me tell you something…if the Republicans want to campaign against what we’ve done, standing up for the status quo and for insurance companies over American families and business….that is a fight I want to have.”

It seems to me that the President ( and many others)still do not get it…..what is happening in America today is not the Republicans campaigning against (or for) anything….it is the American people who are doing the campaigning against the status quo: the way Congress does business….it has to change and it has to change now!

To the President: “Let me(We The People) tell you something…if you want to continue doing to us what you have been doing, destroying our Nation before our very eyes, a Socialist agenda over American families and free enterprise…that is a fight we want to have.”

It is a fight we must have! God help us survive the attitude of entitlement created by arrogance of elitism.

Scott: I agree that there is a “cultivation” of dependency going on that will, in the long run, harvest more and more voters who are enslaved to casting their votes for liberal candidates for their survival and livelihood. As for the viable 3rd party, I’d be fine with the “rise” of something new, but I think America is far too entrenched in the “R” vs. “D” mentality…it’s frustrating, and disheartening.

Andy: Did you miss the point that this speech/document was aimed at ALL politicians, regardless of party? True, some of it IS aimed at the current administration, but I hope I made it clear that this “baggage” lies at the feet of ALL OF THEM.

Obviously it is easy to fall in love with all the calls for liberty, empowerment, and responsibility. What true American would ever disagree with any of that? And while I whole heartedly appreciate your fears, of this administration’s “spending our Nation into ruin”, I must ask you exactly which “misguided actions”, “abuses of power”, or “immoral gains” have these “contradictors of our founding fathers” preformed? And how exactly did you quell such passion during the last administration’s “perversions of the act of leadership? Or is this just another example of tribal allegiance?

Are they ambitious? Sure. Are they;”Advancing programs of dependency”? I don’t believe so. Which briefing was it that President Obama used the “Murky curtain of transparency to reward irresponsibility? I would suggest that this transparency represents the beginning of a slowing of the irresponsibility that is very much to blame for the sluggish version of capitalism we find ourselves in today.

Is this, most shameful of all philosophies; “transparency” so hard to grasp that you suggest it has wrecked capitalism? Has it “punished the innovators, de-railed entrepreneurs? Has this administration’s “perversion of the act of leadership” really ignored the will of our Nation? I seem to remember our Nation speaking loud and clear last November.

In which speech or briefing did this administration label our people as “the armed enemy”? Or could it be that once again you are tying all of us to the extremist?

Once more my brother, I applaud the work. It is filled with many great Conservative principles. I just find that these latest trends in conservative principles of disingenuous conjecture, sound bite manipulation, and wreckless editing, are beneath the over all message that you are, for the most part, very eloquently promoting.
