Dang, first I get laid off, then the Anti-American political party wins control of Congress...what's next?

And before anyone goes off the handle about the Dems being Anti-American...let's look at the facts. The best reference for what is "American" that I can think of is the views of the Founding Fathers (FF). Let's see, did they believe in a big federal government that was all powerful? The answer here, for those of you taught in the public school system, is NO!! In fact, they wanted the US to take after the confederacy model of government...powerful state and local governments and a weak federal government. The Left/Dems believe whole-heartedly that bigger government is always the answer. Sounds fairly counter-Founding Fathers to me. Of course, the current batch of Republicans in Congress could easily be mistaken for Dems....which is partly why they got voted out!!

But let's continue on the Dems being Anti-American. Second, did the FF believe in higher and higher taxes? Have you ever heard of the Boston Tea Party...or perhaps "no taxation without representation"?! But let's see, Dems want to tax and spend...and they want to steal as much as possible from the people that make this country run smoothly. (That's the rich, in case you didn't know -you know, the people that pay your salary!-...they are the ones paying the overwhelming majority of taxes in this country anyway. Don't believe it, check this out. If you don't want to believe that site, believe the numbers straight from the government.)

"But the Reps in Congress spent more money than Dems normally do!!" No kidding, this is another reason that they were voted out of office!

The main stream media would have you believe that this election was a referendum on Bush and Iraq...but that isn't anywhere near the truth. Hell, the media's own exit polls shows that isn't the truth...but that is the way it will be spun. This election was a statement by the American people that if you are supposed to stand for something, then damn it, stand for it; don't flip-flop once you are in office and do the opposite!

And anyone that still needs proof that the main stream media in the country is full of Liberals...did anyone else notice the beaming smiles on the faces of the reporters as they gladly stated that the Dems had taken back Congress?? Seems to me that when the Reps won the last 6 elections, they all looked like they were about to burst into tears when they had to report that the Reps had gained seats. I don't think that you need to work at the Jiffy-Lube to figure out that there is some serious bias there. But maybe that's just me.
