What New Republican Majority Should Do [Why did American Thinker Refuse to Print this?]

You’re obviously emotional and ticked off that this article didn’t get published. And you are ranting at me inappropriately. I am not an editor there. I probably am their most viral contributor however.

And I never said I always agree with their decisions. I don’t. I never said your article was not worthy of publication, I had not even read it when I corrected the record.

I merely clarified that the editor team is not a bunch of young kids. I even stated that they make some bad decisions IMO.

Restore Obamacare cuts to Medicare. Democrats cut an estimated $716 billion from Medicare to finance the subsidies in Obamacare. Republicans should reverse these Medicare cuts and restore the Medicare Advantage program . . . Republicans could defund and repeal Obamacare while destroying the liberal lie that they want to cut Medicare.

That is an excellent idea. The bill repealing Obamacare should simultaneously restore that Medicare funding. It will save FedGov money because of the other waste in Obamacare , and it will save families money because they will no longer have to pay for coverage they don't want.

Well, the article did get published and got 200 hits within the first 2 hours, and got me invited to a planning session for the Republican Party of Virginia within the first 3 hours.

I am emotional about the direction of our politics and our country being decided by people who don't know anything.

I did not suggest that you impugned my writing. I said that it could not have been the writing on account of the fact that American Thinker has published dozens of my articles before.

I merely pointed out that if an editor doesn't know or understand how a change to tax law would revolutionize the U.S. economy -- despite tax policy being the #1 Republican and conservative economic theme since Ronald Reagan -- should an editor be deciding if a proposal is important when the editor does not know enough to make that judgment?

Would you decide which type of neurosurgery is best if you don't know anything about neurosurgery?
