And why the democrats are so dangerous. They blindly put their own party ahead of their country. Last night’s election doesn’t end things. It was just one battle in a long ongoing war. Liberals still control many facets of our lives, from education to the media to many parts of the Government that don’t change during elections. The Republicans have yet another opportunity but as history has shown, the odds are they will squander it. Why? Because DC corrupts. As long as the Government maintains it’s largess, things will continue to get worse unless the Pubes start the government on a drastic weight loss program.

Oh, they’ll find another attractive charlatan like Obama. But the country has had its fill of the man and finds him repulsive in the extreme.

Like the old saying has it, popularity and fame are fleeting.

Now Obama is in the same position as Bush. Revenge is a dish best served cold.

To do what you justly say must be done, power must once again be shared with the states, in a senate of the states.

Well, yes, seemingly a good start. Particularly if more Senate seats can be won in run-offs.

Pause - however given the GOP's sedentary style and ineffectiveness evidenced in the last few decades, the mantle of "governing" and leadership is now squarely placed on them.

What to expect? Same old, same old? Or, in the next two years leading up the 2016 Presidential election, a number of multiple thrusts to "right the ship" and bring a new direction to America and its angry people.

Words are not actions; actions are not results. Threads needs to be strenghtened, not broken. When laws are not enforced, there is are no laws.

So, what to do? As a mire start, consider:

A. Senate releases, finally releases, its years' late budget.

B. The Federal Reserve gets audited - now! Just how deep is the hole we have been digging?

C. Quick conclusions to the numerous "investigations" started, getting rid of Issa's involvement for a start. Let it rain indictments, and if need be prosecutions.

D. Control Federal spending by: (1) freezing spending at current level, (2) DO NOT raise the debt ceiling limit - live within our means, (3) Start decreasing spending by at least 2% per year for next ten years.

E. Remove any "Reid" imposed rules in the Senate.

F. Declare, clearly declare, the Federal govenment's definition of the "middle class." This stake-in-the-ground might clarify things.

G. Stop this "Executive Order" nonsense.

And, just as a reminder, there is a pardon pen on O's desk which I suspect will be liberally applied. Recall Bubba? The GOP now has a degree of "political power" - as before, now, so what?

No guts, no glory. And, you never get the time back. So, tick, tick, ...!

--------------------------------->

The Republicans can snatch defeat from their own victories.

Trying to enjoy the wins, and I do, but "Washington corrupts" - I hope our victors do realize it is time to get to work.

And, time for us to get to work, too! Start local but don't forget state and national!
