Typical editorial from the N&D. I've read about 2 paragraphs and already know the direction this garbage is headed. Praise for demons. Hatred toward Republicans & conservatives. Let me use their words to prove a point, point out the ignorance of the writer, and show where the truth lies. I mean 'lies' as in where it lives, not 'lies' as in what the N&D normally/usually prints. But just from reading the beginning, it's obvious the rest of the editorial will NOT be worth reading. Someday, it's possible though not probable, the editorial board of the N&D will start living in the real world. Until then, it's up to educated people to point out the error of their ways; it's up to us to use fact and education to point out where they are just plain wrong. Which is not just easy to do, but happens regularly. It's a lot of work to point out so many different places, times, ways the N&D are wrong, but I do it when time permits.
Usual GOP agenda. As opposed to the same old, tired, used, failed policies of the Socialist Party? Where are the successes of the socialists that you worry about the Republicans? How is deficit spending going? How is it helping to stabilize the US economy? How is deficit spending helping to keep the value of the US dollar up? Is the deficit causing the US dollar to devalue? If so, which is a FACT so the N&D editorial board doesn't recognize it, then is this good for middle Americans or does it harm the economy as a whole? I know, simple, logical, straight-forward answer, but not if you are a lib or N&D editorial board member.
Cut Taxes: does raising taxes actually help ANYONE? How does raising taxes improve the economy? For the first time in the history of our country, the socialist party implemented a tax on INCOME rather than PROFIT. The only industry in the nation to be penalized in this fashion is the medical device manufacturers. Will this help the economy or hurt it? Will it encourage device manufacturers to move out of the country? Will it encourage innovation? Why is this single market targeted? And IF the socialists get away with penalizing device manufacturers, what industry will they target next for such penalizing? You know libs NEVER implement a tax as a one time event; this is their life blood, they have no other plan or idea, so they WILL target another industry. Then another. Then another. Until every private business is paying taxes on INCOME instead of PROFIT! How does this help ANYONE? Why would the N&D editorial board support such stup1d1ty? Cuz they are socialists also, obviously.
Cut Spending. Really? What a novel idea! Increases in central planner spending does NOT stimulate the economy. There are only 2 ways for the socialists to spend money. Either they spend money we don't have, called deficit spending, OR they steal money from the private sector, keep some of it for government operations, then return a VERY SMALL PORTION of the stolen money back into the private sector. Of course, the return is ALWAYS done to those favored by the socialist party, not just to those who can actually stimulate the economy. So how exactly does central planner spending, which NEVER goes down, actually HELP anyone? Wanna bet the N&D can't answer this?
Cut Regulations. So, how does increasing regulations help anyone? When was the last time a new central planner regulation actually helped CREATE a private sector job? Are new central planner regulations on coal fired power plants helping to increase the electric power supply in the nation, increasing coal mining jobs, transportation jobs, or are the new regulations killing jobs everywhere? Also, how will closing coal-fired power plants reduce the cost of electricity for the average American? When the cost of power 'skyrockets' to use the occupiers word, how does this improve the lives of American citizens? Or how does it even improve the lives of illegal aliens living here illegally?
Stymie the economy's recovery. So, the House has passed hundreds of bills that have gone to the Senate to sit on Senile Harry's desk. No action by the Senate. No budgets passed by the Senate controlled by the socialist party. Yet somehow it was the Republican House causing stymie? What about the Republican House's plan to approve the XL pipeline that would CREATE JOBS as well as INCREASE OIL SUPPLY to the nation? Is it the Republicans in the House that prevented XL or was it the socialists in the White House and Senate who refused to allow this economic stimulant to happen?
Delay infrastructure investment. Once again, typical of socialists, every dollar spent by the central planners is 'investment'. Kinda like when socialists on the campaign trail recently told us that private sector businesses DO NOT CREATE JOBS! Same kind of lack of thinking ability on display. Is it better for the central planners to take money OUT of the economy, filter it through the hands of Washington-ites, then return a small portion of it to spend on infrastructure? How did those 'shovel ready' jobs work out when the occupier insisted on a stimulus? How much did that cost versus how much we got for it? Was solyndra considered infrastructure investment by you socialists or was that just another boondoggle? Better to let me keep money in my pocket and INVEST it as I see fit to stimulate the economy OR have the central planners steal it from us and spend it AS THEY SEE FIT. Which only benefits their supporters, family members (K!), and favored companies.
Ignore climate change. We can only hope! It is proven fact that this debate is OVER! The socialists have been proven wrong. If the Republicans really want to make a difference and improve their chances of re-election and taking the White House in 2016, they better start ignoring 'climate change' completely. Send this garbage back to the communist party where it came from! Stop spending tax payer dollars, stolen from the private sector, on such wasteful nonsense. How many times do the climate change fanatics have to be wrong before socialists and N&D editorial writers catch on to the FACTS and TRUTH?! I know, I'm expecting tigers to change their stripes. The entire goal of the socialists is to take over and they can't do that if we rely on TRUTH and FACTS, so they choose to ignore these.
Immigration reform. This is NOT off the table for Republicans. Amnesty should be. Closing the southern border should be. Preventing illegal aliens from stealing jobs and GOVERNMENT BENEFITS from American citizens MUST be stopped. This is NOT hatred of any group. This is enforcement of laws already on the books. But since the socialists don't believe in law, don't recognize existing law, including the occupier, then this is a foolish statement for me. Why would I expect these law-breakers to give one hoot about enforcing the existing immigration laws when they are perfectly content to ignore all the other laws that they don't like. Like we all thought the racist, law-ignoring Holder was going away, but that is just another lib scam being perpetrated upon us! We managed to get rid of the senile Harray, finally, but we still have the law-breaking occupier and the racist AG to deal with. The next two years are going to be he11 for non-socialist Americans! And we can count on the N&D to continue to carry water for their allies in the Socialist Party of the US. And the N&D will continue to promote the garbage spewed by the buffet slayer. He also is proven wrong on a regular basis, but since he is a black man and a lib ally, he can't be ignored, he must be promoted. Just to show that the N&D is not a racist rag!
