Republicans Are Cowards
A provocative statement, you may say, in stating Republicans are cowards. Perhaps. But, all evidence aside to prove my argument, there can be no other conclusion made about the current state of affairs in the Republican Party. As soon as it became official that President Obama had been reelected, Speaker of the House, John Boehner, was basically laying the framework for terms of surrender. He felt that the fiscal cliff issue could be dealt with, the debt ceiling, gun control and, of course, illegal immigration. Since the election, Obama has been setting the tone of what will be the "Crisis of the Month" in order to get his way. Perhaps Republicans are wary of Obama issuing more executive orders. That is another bone of contention. How can Republicans sit idly by when he basically took immigration away from Congress by allowing the so-called "Dreamers" to stay and go to school at U.S. Taxpayer expense? Was there even a lawsuit filed or injunction filed to fight the President on this by Republicans? To my knowledge, no, Republicans did nothing. On the Fiscal Cliff deal, Republicans gave Obama 90% of all he asked for in that fight. The Debt Ceiling is an ongoing battle. Republicans are showing no real leadership in dealing with the most Left-wing President this nation has ever known. Obama's out of control spending will haunt this country for decades, long after he and all his merry henchmen in the Democratic Party are out of office. Then there is "comprehensive immigration reform" (CIR) aka Amnesty.
After the November elections, Republicans recoiled in terror over the idea of Obama getting 70% of the hispanic vote. Democrats have always done well in this voting bloc. They always will. So, cowards that they are, instead of standing on principle and the rule of law, Republicans are now becoming Democrats on the idea of CIR. Hispanics have been voting in record numbers each time since the Reagan Amnesty in the mid-80s. There were promises of border enforcement then also. So, Republicans have this idea, if we give hispanics ANOTHER amnesty, maybe they will start voting for them. Not a chance in hell that will ever happen. Hispanics are disproportionately low-income and disproportionately likely to receive some form of government support. More than half of hispanics are born out of wedlock. In short, they resemble most of the voting blocs that have helped Democrats for decades now. They will never vote for someone who wants smaller government and less welfare. Those are facts that neither Republicans or Democrats want to talk about. Now, it would be wrong to say ALL hispanics are generational welfare recipients who live off the government dole. But, the main point here is that the majority of hispanics will never vote Republican. It is sheer fantasy to think they ever will. Republicans must know this. So, why don't they say they want the current immigration laws enforced instead of dealing with another amnesty? Because people like John Boeher, Eric Cantor et all, are all cowards. They refuse to stand up for principles of the Republican Party. Instead they want to beome the Democrats alter ego now.
Twenty years from now, if someone wants to trace the total demise, the irrelevancy of the GOP, they can go back to November 7, 2012. On that day, Republicans grew a giant yellow streak. Instead of being the party that stood for the rule of law, instead of a party of principle, let it be remembered the Republican Party decided that for their own self interests, it would be better to be Democrat-lite than be what the Republicans were known to be about at one time; less government, less taxes, more freedom. Neither party cares about the American people. It is time we all understand that.

The Big Push for Amnesty
\
As many may know, yesterday was the day that President Obama gave his long awaited speech on immigration. Monday, the "Gang of Eight," as they are known by critics, provided an outline of the latest "comprehensive immigration reform" that politicians in both parties want to shove down the throats of American citizens. The proposal is basically like the one in 2007 that Americans angrily shot down with faxes, phone calls and visits to their Congressmen. In this latest proposal, of course, is the much desired and clamored for "path to citizenship" that hispanics have been having epileptic seizures over since....well, since the LAST amnesty back in the mid-eighties. It never ends. They say they don't want to separate families. There is a simple solution to this that no one will even discuss. If you don't want to separate your families, take them back with you to your native country. Is that difficult to understand? No one would stop you. There is a lot at stake in this latest effort for amnesty for illegal aliens. The usual suspects from the Republican Party, John McCain and Lindsay Graham, are part of the Gang of Eight. Included with them is Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida. He has flip-flopped on this issue since last year. He is making a huge gamble. The Tea Party put him into the senate seat in Florida. Knowing that an overhaul of our immigration system would cost billions, if not trillions of dollars, the Tea Party may just make him pay for this. I hope so.
The cry of Republicans is that there first has to be border enforcement. The Obama administration stated a couple of years ago that the border is secure. But, now, the Obama Administration is promising border enforcement with their proposal on immigration reform. Well, which is it? Is the border secure or not? More lies from Obama. Is there any reason to believe that Obama will secure the border this time? Is there any reason to assume this will the second and LAST amnesty? Hell no, to both questions. The cry for amnesty for any illegal alien will never stop from the hispanic caucus in Congress and certainly not from La Raza (The Race). The sudden influx of illegals with citizenship will overwhelm an already perilous situation with Social Security and Medicare. Of course, the reason Republicans are wetting themselves on this issue is what took place in the last election. Politicians are thinking about their own self-interests and not what is best for American citizens. Finally, I ask these politicians one question; how does a massive amnesty benefit Americans? You are supposed to be working for us. So, again, how does a "comprehensive immigration reform" amnesty help Americans, especially the 23 million that are unemployed? The silence is deafening.

Obama: Four More Years
Four more years. Four more years of high unemployment, declining economy, stock market rising and falling, mostly falling is in store. But, clearly, 51% of the fools in this country want that. Why? Because President Obama is "a nice guy." That basically is the rationale for reelecting this man into a second term in office. America's credit rating has fallen during his first term. It is sure to fall in his second term. I watched (briefly, ever so briefly) the inauguration of President Obama. It was more of a celebration of a monarch than of a U.S. President. Basically, a monarch is what Obama truly is as he prefers to rule by decree when he doesn't get his way in Congress. He says the people can't wait on Congress. That is just an excuse. Lots of presidents don't get what they want in Congress. Obama acts like a petulant child when he doesn't get his way. He chose to be partisan, angry and combative in his address Monday (on MLK Jr day). Obama made it clear he was going to take this country even further to the Left, much further than in his first term. History will record that Obama was America's first Socialist president. Obama and his cronies believe in Socialism. What they fail to admit is that Socialism is an abject failure in every country it has been tried, both in government and the economy itself.
So, here we are going into a second term of a highly partisan, extreme Left-wing president. We will get into more wars as Democratic Presidents are prone to do. We will suffer with higher deficits and a national debt that will probably climb from $16 trillion to approximately $20 trillion before Obama is finished with his reign of terror. Democrats don't even want a debt ceiling any longer. They feel the debt is of no consequence since we print our own money. The price for this absurdity will be felt for decades, long after Obama is out of office (assuming His Majesty doesn't demand a third term). I ask of the 51%; is this what you wanted when you voted for Obama again? Of course, the majority will say "No, of course not." Then you are very gullible because Obama has fooled you not once, but twice. Don't cry when you can't put food on the table. If you want to blame someone, go look in the mirror. Meanwhile, His Majesty is laughing all the way through a second term, of which, YOU are responsible.

China: Disarm Americans
It's bad enough that China is the landlord of our huge debt. It's bad enough that China tells us to get our spending under control (which President Obama immediately ignored). But, when they start telling Americans they need to turn in their guns, that is going too damn far in my opinion. Of course, China has first hand knowledge of how to control their population. You disarm them. After that, you impose a police state upon the population. The federal government in China hands down rules and the people have to accept them. There is no use in protesting. See Tianamen Square as to what happens when you oppose the Chinese government.
This statement from the Chinese government was announced by the state run media Xinhua. You can read the entire article linked above. I'm not going to repeat all their propaganda. Basically, Xinhua advocated that the federal government forcibly disarm Americans if need be. Don't think that thought has not crossed the minds of the Obama Administration. Andrew Cuomo of New York has even hinted at this very thing as he seeks to strengthen gun control laws in New York. Democrats are doing as they have suggested in the past; never let a good crisis go to waste. What is disgusting is that Democrats are doing this on the graves of 26 innocent people, including 20 kindergarten-age children. The ends justifies the means with these vermin.
China is well-known for human rights violations throughout the world. They are known about the oppressive worker conditions they allow to take place with their own people. Mao Zedong, who was the supreme ruler of the current communist government of China during the revolutionary days, murdered between an estimated 50-70 million people. How many innocent children do you think were killed during this time by guns? How many innocent adults? All those murdered people were presumably disarmed. Do you see a parallel here? Odd how there was no official response from the Obama Administration on the call of Xinhua to disarm Americans. I wonder why...
