A few months ago the Dems tied the so called “First Responders” bill to another piece of government spending that they knew Republicans wouldn’t want to vote on, they put it in the same bill for the sole purpose of trying to get the spending portion passed, counting on there being a sufficient number of people who would hear the words “Republicans against the First Responders bill” enough times, and would not think or seek knowledge enough to care. This is a classic Democrat tactic, appealing to the lowest common denominator of intelligence and substance, underestimating (in some cases, not in others) the intelligence of the average American.

It’s classic deficit spending, and classic grandstanding. Dems 101. And yes, you CAN say if most Democrats want it, its bad for the country. Its not that way fundamentally, but Democrats have made it that way by consistently supporting big spending, irresponsible garbage. If they change the garbage that they support, then we can change our perception of them. The onus is not on us to be “open-minded” about Democrats possibly supporting individual rights and responsibilities and self-reliance. The onus is on them to show us that they can govern. For now its clear they can’t, and so being “open-minded” about their initiatives is just foolish.

If you don’t understand that about Democrats then you should seriously consider whether you have a realistic view of the universe. Let me be clear: their philosophy is pure *evil*. And evil must be stopped.

Yep. And they count on it that people, even uneducated and misinformed conservatives will bite on it too.

Their own pool of voters, they just take that for granted that they will unthinkingly swallow it.
