Five Things We’ve Learned

8 Comments

…from the Lightworker:

We know that when it comes to the high life, Democrats believe in partying hardy, sending taxpayers every bill they can while living lives of luxury the rest of us can ill-afford. We know, too, that Democrats cheat on their taxes and wrangle government deals for their relatives with a feeling of entitlement that is sure to put the term “public servant” in disrepute for the next century. Thanks to the growth of government on the Lightworker’s watch, we have seen public employees now eclipse the earnings and benefits of private workers, with the only end in sight the fate of Greece.

Praise to the Lightworker and his fellow Democrats for teaching us these essential lessons, which reinforce our will to throw them all on the unemployment lines posthaste.

I’m hoping that in a few weeks, we’ll be taking them to school.

  1. It didn’t start with Obama, boyo.

    If liberty has a future, the “ruling class” mentality has to be cut back severely from politics in general. That attitude is endemic to both parties right now.

    It is arguably the case that liberty is better served with the fast Frog boiling Obama in the White House than the likes of Bush, McCain et al.

    = Charlie Crist, Lisa Murkowski

  2. Unless Republicans clean up so thoroughly as to get a veto-proof majority in both houses (incredibly unlikely) all we can really do is stop the bleeding. Real reform will have to wait until 2012 when Obama is out and/or another batch of Obamacare Senators meet their electoral fate.

  3. Safe to say no one is impressed by either party right now. If Republicans get a majority in the House or Senate and go back to their old ways, they will get tossed.

  4. …they will get tossed.

    The situation with Murkowski has got to be getting at least some of their attention.

    Um, Rand, “….taking them to school”?

    Try “….. taking them behind the woodshed”!

  7. Gawd. I was content to be characterized as a racist in opposing Obama’s candidacy. Now I learn that I was also accused of lacking the spiritual amperage to detect Obama’s “luminosity” and “high-vibration integrity.” True, he “isn’t really one of us.” True, the discomfort in the pit of my stomach may signal an “evolutionary burp” as he brings about “a new way of being on the planet.”

    How about this: aliens abducted Mark Morford and his ilk in 2008 and extracted from their craniums each and every brain cell.

  8. I can’t believe how delusional that “lightworker” stuff is either. Looks like Morford still drinks the kool aid:

    Do you know how I found out about the current status of the long-promised U.S. military withdrawal from Iraq — which, during the last election, was one of the largest and most implausible assurances made by then-candidate Obama, and one that few military experts or even the Pentagon thought possible, given how deeply and violently BushCo had entrenched us in that intractable and impossible war of ultraviolent nothingness?

    I got an email. From President Obama. It was a calmly worded, non-blaring, non-jingoistic, adults-only note to American citizens, declaring how the U.S. has now withdrawn more than 90,000 American troops from Iraq, nearly two-thirds of the entire force, all right on schedule, a truly massive and staggering operation, and that our combat mission there is officially over.

    Yes, Morford is still on Obama’s short email list of friends. I have a dead email account that is too (back in the day before Obama showed his true colors).

    And this time, it’s actually true.

    It’s sort of stunning, in both scope and meaning. It’s sort of historic, in sheer accomplishment for a president in office less than two years, considering the scale of the epic war machine he faced down when he took the job. It’s also sort of humbling and tragic, considering the needless loss of life, the bleak history now permanently tattooed, the deep scars on our national soul.

    I imagine in ten years or so, we’ll hear how disappointed Morford was all along with Obama.
