Commander — I agree your suggestion is what NEEDS to be done but such a list would NEVER fly in that swamp on the Potomac. Much as I would love a fair fight on these issues, it will never happen.
The Dems would NEVER agree to cutting income taxes to 15 percent. Whorehouse Harry Reid would never allow such a vote to even come up on the Senate floor. (Remember, Harry hasn’t proposed a budget in three years now, or is it four?) Abolish corporate income and capital gains taxes — not a chance!
So, if Washington won’t do what is right, then we should allow the Dems to continue doing what is wrong. But make abso-freakin-lutely certain that everybody knows this is what the Dems really, really wanted.
The role of the GOP must be to offer a workable solution, and get the word out quickly.
“You want higher taxes on the rich? You want more regulations? You want an end to fracking and oil drilling? You want ObummerPhones and free schooling for illegals? Then here you go! I vote PRESENT because I don’t support any of this crap. But if you want this nation to recover, this is what we NEED to do instead.”
I agree.
