We have been played by both parties for decades. Nothing new and few see it clearly as you do.

Given the state of our economy and the fiscal rot within our government and financial markets our prognosis is not good. Obamacare will speed up the day of reckoning where we can no longer sell our debt and our tax base continues to decrease as the economy gets even worse. The dollar will continue to weaken and they will continue to print them forcing other nations to find an alternative and then we are in BIG trouble.

Hope and pray that I am wrong, but in order to turn things around we would not only have to repeal Obamacare, we would have to greatly slash entitlements, increase revenues by growing the economy, and decrease government spending across the board. A tall task considering we can’t even stop a very unpopular program from an unpopular President and congress.

That’s why the GOPe is so hostile to the TEA Party and why Rove did everything he could to undercut conservative candidates even if his chosen one lost the primary.
