When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written: “‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’” Matthew 2:4-6 NIV
If anyone tries to make the argument that either Party is not run by Marxists they have to look no further than John Bohner and his promotion of the Obama budget. This massive porkfest was filled with every Global Warming, Obamacare boondoggle, immigration protection and Pelosi dream that any good commie could ever wish for. Yes, that is your Republican Party right after the biggest victory in over a hundred years at work. These actions make more and more of us proud to no longer being part of such corruption. As Ronald Reagan once said, I didn’t leave the Party; the Party left me and it is time for the Tea Party to leave as well and start their own.
This would be infuriating if it was not so pathetic that the leadership who spent the last year defeating Conservative election after election only to surrender in such a way that even the French would have been embarrassed. We watched both McConnell and Boehner go after the Tea Party candidates with both barrels as well as stealing an election in MS only to watch them work as one with the Dems once they regained the reins of power. They are so powerless and inept at explaining conservative principles they only look into the cameras and mumble incoherent foolishness as if it were policy. We are way past time to find leaders who are articulate and dynamic like Cruz who is the Republican pariah.
Since the District of Corruption is such a lost cause it is refreshing to watch the invisible hand of capitalism taking control of oil prices. It looks like the Marxist in the WH was not able to stop our oil industry completely and the oil boom of the Dakotas has done its magic. Although he will never understand this concept since he never took a single economics class not based on Karl Marx, we are seeing the beauty of supply and demand. At a time of increased supply from fracking as well as massive finds and drilling around the world including Alaska by Russia, we are seeing a worldwide slowdown in the economy due to Obamanomics.
We have had six years of malaise since the collapse of Fannie and Freddie thanks to Dodd/Frank and the Black Caucus forcing banks to offer bad loans, and Marxism has continued this slowdown. These are the same policies that FDR tried when he extended the Depression with excessive Federal Stimulation stopping the economy’s ability to heal itself. We have seen that again and since America is still the engine of the world the entire world is suffering the continued slowing. What this means in economic terms in relation to oil prices is there is still no demand worldwide for the extra oil being produced.
The beauty of free market capitalism which is being practiced in the Dakotas, Texas, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and Russia is to maintain their cash flow they have to produce more to keep their economies afloat. Now some of the countries have such corrupt and incompetent gummits that they cannot produce more, but the power of the invisible hand forces them to attempt to produce more into a lack of demand causing the prices to fall further to buy up the excess production. This is the perfect storm for countries like America, Western Europe and Asia who are watching their energy costs tumble and profits rise. There is a bit of delay for the cheaper oil to go through the pipeline, but there are some real energy savings on the way which will be a trillion dollar true stimulus to these people.
We are now seeing some stock market drops in the energy companies as they are pummeled on their high priced inventories being sold as huge losses into a falling market. There could and should be some large bankruptcies as they are forced to eat some major red ink similar to the banking crisis attached to the Fannie/Freddie collapse. There does not need to be intervention as the infrastructure is still there for them to begin making profits and perhaps some very nice profits if the world economies can recover from this cheap oil windfall. As these energy producers begin processing some of this cheap oil they will also begin making money on the other side. Like every commodity dealer always say, it doesn’t matter if it is going up or down as long as prices are moving we can make money. In this case they likely minimized the losses on hedges to absorb some of the losses they could have sustained or simply, the market worked.
This economic jumpstart is the difference between Marxism and Capitalism. After a decade of pouring tax dollars into boondoggles like Cash for Clunkers, Obamacare and green energy windmills sucking trillions out of the economy and in spite of Omarxist’s inability to completely stop oil production it very likely will save the day. This could have been done years ago if he and his Party would have encouraged the production of this critical energy supply rather than vilifying it as if cheap energy is the problem and not the solution.
This underlines how foolish the Republican Party is by throwing away a perfectly good argument to pass Obama’s budget. Why in the world do the Repubs want to play nice with the very people who not only caused this mess and made it worse, while vilifying these same congressmen for years. They refuse to stand up for the free market and would rather to continue to be Republicrats who believe if they are one onion skin to the right of the Dems they will continue to being elected to be nothing and do nothing. This week they showed exactly what that means. If they are not part of the solution, they are part of the problem.

Many of us predicted this, but I didn’t think they would be this blatant about it so soon after the election.
Boehner has outed himself as an enemy of the republic. Purging him is a fundamental necessity.
Agreed. We need a speaker that actually represents the House that we gave the majority.
Boehner must go!

Defund executive amnesty in the “Cromnibus”
it appears that the budget process will not allow congress to go into recess, which stops the Obama from making recess appointments.
If this is the game of the republicans, it’s ok with me. Keep the budget bouncing between the two chambers.
“Too late to wake up. Tyranny does not emerge fully formed. It is an incremental process, and that process is nearly complete. First all of the key levers are cut or put under control. Roberts, Boehner and McConnell I assume to be blackmailed or otherwise co-opted by Team Obama.”
The fix is in.
Or, as G. Gordon Liddy used to say,
“The ol’ fixaroo is in!”
An historic majority, and they throw it all away this fast.
Geez, how I hate Nancy Boehner, Mitch Turtlesoup, & the rest of the GOPee-ers!
” Geez, how I hate Nancy Boehner, Mitch Turtlesoup, & the rest of the GOPee-ers!”
They were well paid.
