Decadent Democrats And Republican Bums

February 12, 2010 / 9:14 am • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

This photo [Link here] is sure to cause controversy, but nicely encapsulates the perception of the Left these days.

Did the American people really forget how vile this bunch can be when in power? I’ve considered this quite a bit. Maybe. Really, I think they remembered, hated the Republicans more for their betrayal of principles they claim to hold, and threw the bums out.

The bums didn’t listen in 2004, 2006 and 2008. Are the Republican bums listening now?

Some are.

Some Republicans still act like they’d like to be on the stage you see in that photo, there’s just not enough room right now. That’s a problem.

If and when the Republican party gets back in control, and there’s more Gang of 7 activity that slowly, but inextricably grows the government, makes D.C. more powerful, etc., there will be a bad scene.

The American people, actually the tax payers–which are only about 50% of the population, are fed up with our leaders profligate ways. Any concessions, any fat cat behavior will cause mutiny, I fear.

So yes, the Democrat party is decadent. That’s why I call them the party of “yes, yes, yes!” Still, the Republicans have been the party of maybe. That has to change.

2010 is going to be a big year. Hopefully, fiscal responsibility will be the new order of the day and we won’t see the fall of America.

    Perfectly stated.

    The American people, actually the tax payers–which are only about 50% of the population, are fed up with our leaders profligate ways. Any concessions, any fat cat behavior will cause mutiny, I fear.

    Here’s where the order you’re making becomes a tall one. You’re asking people to go into government service, and put some effort into making their role smaller. Not just “flip a switch” effort. But the kind of effort you put into a big fight, a “Yes This Is The Hill I Wanna Die On” fight, with other people who will exterminate you without a second thought because you got in their way.

    To diminish the role they’re occupying at the time.

    Even with some hard term limits, I’m not entirely sure the system is sufficiently compatible with human nature to make this do-able.

    The democrat party belongs in the picture because a) they share this primal human urge to embiggen whatever role they’re occupying in the moment, and b) they’ve got a few cheap tricks to pull that make the party last longer, make the suckling pig at the banquet fatter, and make the wine pitchers fuller. That is why they behave in such a vile way when they’re in power. They have no mechanism of self-restraint, they don’t need one, because they’re so “good.”

    “Can the implosion of America at the hands of Democrats be stopped?”

    Becasue things went so well under Republican rule? are we really going to ignore those 8 years? I mean, I’m not going to ptrtend that Obama’s doing a good job, but my god, you really have to bend over backwards to see those 8 years as anything other than disaster.

    Yet, NOW the Republic itself is at stake.

    I always have to laugh when lefties call the Republicans the “Party of No”. If only it were true.
