Finally some voices of sanity around here. Romney is definitely NOT my preferred choice, but that’s not the point anyway. The point is that the Founders designed a divided govt so that no one office or level has all the power. It makes it far, far more difficult for one man or one office to take the whole thing over.
That’s why the Presidential fixation in this country makes me want to puke. Presidents can’t write laws and can even have their veto overruled. This is why supporting races at all levels is crucial. That gives the left more targets to aim for, and diffuses their attack. Now we have learned that even the states are in play with their ability to enact Voter ID and limit public sector union bargaining, which strangles the Democrat union ATM machine.
If we get good conservatives with backbone in Congress, we hold Romney’s feet to the fire. We MUST start thinking multiprong strategy if we want to defeat them. There are so many angles to attack them from if we are just willing to do so.
On Eastwood, what he did wasn’t Alinsky, it was counter-Alinsky. The problem with ridicule tactics is that when you target someone or something, it at the same time reveals what you fear and/or what is your priority. Eastwood is an icon’s icon, up there with John Wayne, Elvis, Johnny Cash, and Hank Williams. It is quite dangerous and dicey to go after someone like that, and the Left doing so only shows how craven, bankrupt, bloodthirsty, and power mad they are.
With that one little ad lib skit he left them bleeding on multiple fronts. Pure genius.
Dunno about anyone else but my game plan is this:
Elect Romney to stop Zero. Elect the most conservative possible Senate and House to stop Romney.
Who’s with me?
The thing I liked most about Eastwood’s skit wasn’t his humor (though it was good) but the very important reminder that POLITICIANS AND BUREAUCRATS ARE OUR EMPLOYEES!!! Not the other way around.
The political class has gotten way too uppity. It is time we clip their wings.
We have to starve the beast and watch it like a hawk!
