Democrats are fighting us, the people

Watched Debbie Wasserman-Schultz on Fox Sunday today. Just for the record, Brett Baier did NOT ask her about her tan. A significant omission or what? Or maybe yet another double standard? All right for dems to be tan, but not Republicans? (I am joking.) But seriously, what is with Wasserman-Schultz's hair? Looks like a badly-used string mop. Kinda like dreadlocks. Maybe she's going for the Rastifari vote, though I didn't realize there were enough Rastifaris in Florida to constitute an important voting bloc.

I must say, too, that Wasserman-Schultz (W-S) does tend to run off at the mouth. She talked about how the Republicans want to take the nation back to when "Wall Street was running rough-shod" and things like that. And did what she could to talk over Eric Cantor, who was also on the show.

You know, most of us folks out here in the hinterland look fondly upon a past when anyone could run rough-shod, or any other way, without paying a half-million to the EPA, IRS, etc. etc. "We used to be able to buy Coke with sugar in it, electricity was affordable and we had power all day!" we'll be telling our great-great-grandkids. If we live that long without being medically rationed into early death.

W-S also talks about all the jobs the Comrade's regime has created. What jobs? Census-takers? No mention of firing them a couple times and counting the re-hires as a whole big new batch of "jobs created or saved." The Comrade also wants to hire 16,000 more IRS snoops and thugs to dog us all about paying for socialized medicine. Yet everyone knows -- even the dems admit it -- government doesn't really create jobs. Business does. But the dems hate business -- and therefore they hate all of us, who are engaged in business in one way or another. They don't understand why we don't all just bend over.

I'm still trying to figure out where they all grew up. It's a complete mystery to me. It's their social class thing. They don't understand that there is no real division in the USA between "owners" and "workers." We all function in both capacities. They're still working on a socioeconomic model borrowed from Europe in 1580 or thereabouts.

The dems are so full of crap. And there is one congressman in Illinois -- Bobby Seals -- who's trying to run on his record of voting in favor of socialism. (Just a note... Wasn't Bobby Seals one of the Chicago Seven? One of the Weather Underground? Or a high-ranking member of the Black P-Stone Nation? Or was that another Bobby Seals? I thought the cops killed him in a shoot-out, but I could be wrong.)  I've seen his TV ads. It'll be interesting to see what the vote will be in that district.

Seals -- or the dems, anyway -- also has an ad out trying to smear his opponent, Robert Dold, I believe his name is. The ad says, "Dold is supported by anti-abortion groups and the Tea Parties." I don't know, sounds like Seals is giving citizens only more reason to vote for Dold. That race is a different district from mine, though neighboring, so I'm not sure if I've got the names right. Anyway, I find this whole approach very curious, except that it is Illinois, where the politicians for years have been trying to train all of us citizens to be good little drek-eaters and do whatever some self-proclaimed "authority" tells us to do. I suppose that's why the Comrade came to Chicago, in particular, to launch his attack against the US Constitution and American exceptionalism. Guess he recognized he could get a foot in the door here. And, yes he did.

My Rep is Melissa Bean, a real blockhead who's actually afraid of the voters. She had a "town hall" where you had to pay to get in. And then she had some 6'6" thug wandering through the audience making sure you kept your mouth shut. Then she made an appearance at a grocery store -- and complained that the citizens who came to see her were "too noisy" when they asked her why she voted for socialized medicine. Bean is a butthead (or beanhead?). What more can I say? And to think she replaced Phil Crane, who had the most conservative voting record in congress. Though he apparently was an alcoholic and didn't spend any more time in Illinois than he had to. But what conservative would?

And if I'd only moved a few miles north across the border, I'd be in Paul Ryan's district. I really blew that one!

Well, enough for now. I have some paying work to do. And have to try to figure out how to get four dinners from two chicken breasts. But I'm used to that. The secret ingredient:  pasta.

Save the Republic!
