Conservative Republican control of the House is step one. Taking control of the Senate is step two, regardless of whether we do it in 2010 or 2012. And step three is electing a conservative president in 2012. It will not be as easy as one-two-three, but it can be done. It must be done to take back our government.

Thanks for the ping and as usual another excellent essay

I saw Herman Cain yesterday in La Crosse, Wisconsin with the Americans for Prosperity group. He is a great speaker and a loyal American..he fired up the audience and had us in the palm of his hand. He'd be a great Vice - president...heck he'd be a great president.

Just like Sarah Palin, he is a breath of fresh air.

Obama last year famously told Rep. Marion Berry that "the big difference here and in '94 was you've got me."

And the big difference between '96 and 2012 is that you'll still have Obamanomics.

I like putting Politics in Military terms / scenarios when possible as it is like War, today anyway - with War Rooms, Tactics and Strategy ruling the day. And in that respect Obama is like Hitler.

Barry's statement above is similar to WHY the allies didn't want Hitler killed. Ole Adolph was such a nincompoop that after France capitulated every decision Hitler made helped the Allies. The guy was like an ally mole.

So as Adolf single handedly destroyed the German Military₍₁₎, Barry is single handedly destroying the Democratic party.

(The gop should really pay that guy to stick around after he gets booted in 2012)

(1) Even before 'Ultra' was cracked by the Brits, Hitler was screwing up. The U-Boat Wolf Packs almost had Britain on its knees, almost starved to death and ready to surrender, then he calls them off. Then with the Battle of Britain he had the RAF a week away from collapse, Hitler starts his City Blitz giving the RAF time to recover. Then Stalingrad and 'no retreat, D-Day and holding back the Panzer Divisions, etc etc etc.

“I’d be surprised if operating costs can’t be cut by at least 30%.”

...In the first year...then 50% in the 2nd year, 70% in subsequent years.

One of the first things they have to do is get a tight rein on the rampant regulations that are being announced by the agencies which have no direct authority or reference in current federal statute. (Example EPA imposing Carbon limitations or Cap N Trade under the Clean Air Act without specific authorizing legislation and the National Forest Management Act replacement of the word “coordination” with local government with “collabroration or cooperation.”) That will cut down the Executive and put Congress back in charge of legislation.

One of the things I would like to see is a halt to the annual reauthorization of the Endangered Species Act, the repeal of the Equal Access to Justice Act that pays environmental attorneys to sue, the elmination of the nonnavigable intrastate waters definition from the new reauthorization of the Clean Water Act and the revamping of NEPA to prevent the current tyranny of one person from virtually freezing management of a National Forest through stupid appeals based on extreme environmental views.

I think all laws should reference their authority for enactment in a stated article, section and clause of the Constitution and that the broad Commerce Clause interpretation should be cut waaaaaay back. Congress should no longer be able to buy jurisdiction from the state through monetary enticements under the tax and spend authority. This allows them to get into education, health care, welfare and all sorts of areas where they are not authorized to legislate in the Constitution. The practice should be prohibited and Congress should return to the limits of its authority according to its enumerated powers and the necessary and proper clause.

Treaties should not drive legislation and certainly should not create extra Constitutional authority for Congress to legislate in areas that are otherwise the domain of the states.

Kellis - I agree with your post and thanks for sharing many excellent ideas.

I am excited about tomorrow but remain pessimistic about the ability of our nation to cut government spending to the necessary levels to preserve our nation for future generations.

Preserving our nation will take sacrifice from every American. I fear our fellow citizens are too selfish and spoiled to do the right thing. Tomorrow will be a good start but all I am hearing is cutting earmarks and slashing the budget by single digits. It will take drastic and draconian cuts to pay down our debt, preserve our wealth, and save our nation. It will take a chainsaw on entitlements to prevent bankruptcy.

I plan on watching and enjoying the evening and I will still pray another Reagan emerges in 2012 that can rally a reluctant nation to do the right thing.
