Republicans Are Democrats Lite

Let’s face it the Republicans either don’t want to get rid of Obamacare and only want to look like they want to get rid of it, or they don’t know how to explain defunding it, or they just don’t have any fight and are all a bunch of wimps. They know they have the American people behind them, but yet they are either unwilling or unable to actually take any serious action regarding Obamacare.

It has been put forward that all they need to do is fund all the rest of the government except Obama care, at that point it is only obvious if the Democrat Senate either doesn’t bring it to the floor or vetoes it and thus we have a government shutdown that it is the democrats that are really the “Party of NO”. It would not be the Republicans at that point that are shutting down the government it is the Democrats. It would be the Republicans that are funding the government. This is certainly an easy enough case to be made. Yet we listen to the likes of Carl Roves saying not to do this.

In my opinion there are only two reason he would say this will be a disaster for the Republicans. Either he doesn’t feel they are smart enough to defend their position, or he simply doesn’t want to see Obamacare done away with and like the rest of the Republicrats he just wants to say he wants it gone, but doesn’t want to take any action that would really do that.

Don’t we have anyone in Government that is bold enough to actually do the right thing? These people act like they are completely impotent to do anything. They were impotent when the Senate passed it not using the real constitutional process and they were silent, then they were silent when the Supreme Court ruled that it wasn’t constitutional on the basis of the commerce clause but still declared it constitutional because it wasn’t a penalty it was a tax even when the actual bill clearly states it is a penalty.

They watched Obama declare war on Libya without Congressional approval. He was the first and only president ever to do that. They watched him declare that congress was in recess and appoint a non-recess recess appointment and did nothing to make it take it back. They let everything he does go by all with the unspoken excuse that there is nothing they can do about it. This is absurd. All anyone could think from this is that they don’t know their jobs, they don’t know their power, they don’t care, or they are actually for all these things but were too wimpy to propose them. What are we the American people to think?

Many have asked if there was anything we could do about it? It seems there is only one man of any prominence that has actually addressed the issue with any real solution. We need to have the states submit some constitutional amendments to fix what all our leaders have broken!

For those who may not have read it yet you should really read the book, “The Liberty Amendments” by Mark Levin. I’m not saying he got everything right. There are a few areas where I would tweak thing or maybe make them more immediate, but at least he’s proposing something that has a chance to work. Our current and even past representatives have certainly done nothing but let things get worse and worse. Those we send to congress with the promise of fixing things, and I believe their intentions are good to start with end up being corrupted by Washington as well and so things just continue as they are.

For what it is worth as I mentioned above I believe it is worth everyone’s time to read Mark Levin’s book listed above and see what they can do to get involved in this process. We need to take our representatives out of the process since they clearly are not really representing the best interests of America.
