Liberals Must Read the Constitution to Understand that they are WRONG




Liberals tend to implode when ask to prove with facts. Unless they have access to the Daily Koz or any liberal blogs for reference, Democrat politicians are actually stupid. The Constitution is not a living document. Beside protecting the American people, the Constitution sole purpose is to control an abusive government.

CNSNews.com)CNSNews.com: “Madam Speaker, where specifically does the Constitution grant Congress the authority to enact an individual health insurance mandate?

Pelosi: “Are you serious? Are you serious?"

CNSNews.com: “Yes, yes I am."

Pelosi then shook her head before taking a question from another reporter. Her press spokesman, Nadeam Elshami, then told CNSNews.com that asking the speaker of the House where the Constitution authorized Congress to mandated that individual Americans buy health insurance as not a "serious question."

Gridlock in Washington DC Means Less Spending




Obama said, "We can't spend the next two years mired in gridlock. Other countries like China aren't standing still so we can't stand still either. We've got to move forward."

Well, America wants to see a gridlock because with every bill presented to the president, there is always an earmark associated with it. Gridlock does not mean the government will shut down. That is the most idiotic idea present by liberals on Capitol Hill and by the Mainstream Media. It is all about spending and debt that brought a high turn out of voters to the voting booth the other day.

The people has spoken. The new mandate is that our vote will produce the results needed to put us on the right path. There will be no bipartisan support. The Democrats ideology is hurting this country, and therefore, any ideas by Democrats should be shunned. It is the Conservative way or the highway.

Next for the Republican Establishment is Stopping Sarah Palin




The 2010 Midterm Elections could been a Republican landslide, but the Republican establishment end that dream. While the House of Representative is an important win, the Republican "elite" establishment only purpose is to stifle the Obama agenda. It is all a chess game. The GOP got the Democrats in "check" and they are two moves away for "checkmate." The Republican establishment may have a conservative outer skin, but deep inside they are as ugly as the Democrat party. During this Midterm Election, they sabotage the Tea Party Movement. They are scare that there is a new sheriff is in town. The Republican establishment didn't "help" any Republican candidate that were endorsed by Sarah Palin and the Tea Party movement like Sharon Angle and Christine O'Donnell.

Now the elections are over, the Republican establishment is working hand in hand with Liberal elites to stop the Sarah Palin Express. Using the lame excuse that Sarah Palin will lose in the General Election and she is the devil is really poor reasoning. It is obvious that she has the charisma and talent to make this country shine and once again make America exceptional. It is ignorant people, who cannot put 2 good reasons why Palin should run, road blocking her success. Combining that with the elitist, Palin has a hard uphill climb.

Just like Ronald Reagan, the Republican establishment had a hard time accepting him. Look how he turned out.
