The revolt against the Obama administration may be starting. There are rumblings coming from all parts of the country in newspaper articles on people that are upset that the Obama administration is rewarding people that are irresponsible and punishing the responsible people. Yesterday on CNBC one of their financial analysts basically declared a “Tea Party” on this new mortgage bill that Obama came to Arizona to promote.
For those of you who are not well versed in American History, the American Revolution basically started when a group of Americans got fed up with British taxation and dumped tea into the Boston Harbor. The British responded with more taxes and more controls. This resulted in more Americans getting upset with the British. Finally it all came to a head in Lexington, MA with the shot “heard round the world”. This call for a tea party may be the start of the revolt against the higher taxes and profligate spending of the Obama administration.
That there would be a revolt against higher taxes and overspending is not a surprise. What is a surprise is that it happened so fast. We are just one month into the Obama administration and already people are calling for a revolt. That has to be some kind of record. Obama came into Washington with sky high approval numbers and anticipation of great things to come. One month later, we all realize that Obama is in this way over his head and we are all in great trouble. There are still some that have consumed the Democrat kool-aid that will not see the truth, but they are becoming fewer. Even the main stream media is starting to see the truth and they were 110% behind Obama in the campaign. They were so much behind Obama in the campaign that they would make up good things for him or make up bad things about McCain/Palin. Now, some of these same reporters are starting to realize that we made a huge mistake on November 4. We cannot erase that mistake, but we can erase the problem as much as possible in 2010.
I am starting to hear predictions of a Democrat debacle in 2010. Talk show hosts with their ear to the ground are hearing rumbles of people upset with Obama and the rubber stamp Congress. The only way to fix the problem is to rid ourselves of the rubber stamp Congress. If I was a Republican with thoughts of running for the House or Senate in 2010, I would seriously consider starting my campaign today. The Democrats are setting the issues up on a silver platter and serving them up to be hit out of the park. This could be an easy election to run as the Democrats have grossly overplayed their hand and do not see the problem. I doubt that they will even see this landslide coming until 2010 hits them between the eyes. This overplaying of their hand by the Democrats is just pent up emotion at finally having all their ducks in a line to finally do everything they want to the country. They cannot help themselves. When they finally wake up, it will be way too late for them to recover politically from the messes they will have created.
What does this mean for the country? In the short run, nothing can be done other than barraging the offices of your Congressman and Senators with calls and letters. That will have no effect on Democrats as they all take orders from party leaders, not you the public. So, for the next two years we will have to grin and bear it as the Democrats try to systematically destroy our country. We get to take our fury out on the Democrats in 2010. The best way to handle this is to not let them know much about it until just before the Day of Judgment comes. We do not want them to actually try and be Republicans for a few months before the election to fool everyone into thinking that they are really Republicans. That is their usual trick. I plan on telling pollsters that I love Democrats up until I drop the hammer in 2010. That way they will not understand what hit them.
