Yesterday was not so much a wholesale embrace of the GOP as it was a complete and total repudiation of Barack Obama and the gang of criminals he brought to Washington in 2008.

In the last 2 decades, it became clear to me that we were losing that struggle as those major institutions gained ground among the growing class of those either employed by or dependent upon the expanding welfare state. My way of emotionally coping with that was to tell myself that if the majority did, indeed, lust after a socialist welfare state, well then, let’s bring it on and let them have it good and hard. Rub their noses in it. Shove it down their throats!!

At the same time, I continued to tell myself that there were still enough honest-to-God adults out there who, once they had a taste of a totalitarian command state regime, they would reject it. I refused to consider that so many citizens (and I use the term loosely) would come to love and embrace the thing enough to sustain it and prolong the economic and personal agony history teaches always attends such despotic systems.
Yesterday, I THINK we began to come to our senses!

I’d analogize what happened yesterday to what an otherwise healthy human body does when faced with an existential threat. Just as our bodies are complex organisms, nations are complex organisms. Faced with ISIS, ebola, the invasion across the southern border and Obama’s criminal neglect of those threats, and on and on and on we STILL have the resolve and character to rally and turn back the threats and deal with the SOURCE of the threats.

All that said, we’re not out of the woods yet.
Now it’s up to the Pubbies to set out a serious and freedom oriented AGENDA and be RESOLUTE in repairing the damage this renegade regime has done over the last 6 years!

Obama and Valarie Jarrett are NOT going to go gently into that good night. As an egomaniacal malignant narcissist, this guy will dig in his heels. Just as a wild animal is most dangerous when cornered, Obama is now in a corner from which there is little chance escape. Ted Cruz was asked last night by if the Pubbies would take up the matter of Obama’s “lawlessness” and he stated rather emphatically that they would.
I’ll be watching to make sure that happens! I’m sure Darrel Issa and Trey Gowdy are licking their chops. I’m doubling my popcorn order for THAT show!

The only event that would please me more than what happened yesterday would be the sight of Barack Obama leaving the White House in manacles and leg irons with Eric Holder right behind him. If he and Eric are smart, they’ll spend today booking air travel to some non extradition country. I’m sure Lois Lerner would like to go along!
And speaking of air travel, tell these new Pubbies to take the keys to Air Force One away from Obama. It’s time to halt his endless taxpayer funded world apology tour!

Now comes the hard work of keeping all these new folks honest in the toxic and corrosive atmosphere of Washington, D.C. . it’s up to these same voters to watch all these new folks like the proverbial hawk and keep them within Mr. Jefferson’s “chains of the Constitution.” When you see them beginning what is the inevitable drift into the D.C. Swamp, CALL AND LET THEM KNOW WE’RE NOT GOING BACK TO “BUSINESS AS USUAL”. The Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121! Write it down.
You should call just to hear the world’s worst “Music on Hold”.

The massive wins by in the statehouses MAY mean that at least SOME voters believe the 10th Amendment will be the most important tool to roll back the growth of fedzilla and return the states to the status of “LABORATORIES OF FREEDOM” the Founders intended them to be.

In that vein, the new national Pubbies need to start taking apart the federal bureaucracy, starting with the Department of Education, the EPA, the IRS and on and on.

Not to be the skunk at the picnic, but there IS some not so good news: The good guys won this one but the tight margins in many of these races mean that there are STILL large pockets of diehard Democrats who STILL DON’T GET IT!!
If you know any of those folks, spend some time attempting to acquaint them with our history, the ideas of the Founders, our tradition of freedom, the Constitution and why those things are important! There will be another election in 2 years and – unless we somehow reach them – many of these folks will be cocked and locked for payback!

And while he’s a huge improvement over the clearly deranged Harry Reid, I’m very worried about Mitch McConnell’s comments that he would crush the Tea Party.
