The Buck Stops Here

 When I was a kid, Harry Truman had a sign on his desk that said,'The buck Stops Here.'  It was probably the last time a pol ever said that and meant it. Liberal Democrats have made so many mistakes, errors in both domestic and foreign policy that one cannot keep count. And they never apologize. There are real differences between liberal Dems and conservative Republicans. Real ones. At least over the years since I was 15 till now, I can spot them .  Spending: in IKE's era, he built the Federal Interstate Highway System. It came in under budget and actually put people to work. Unlike the New Deal era where people stood around and worked for the WPA with very little to show.  JFK dealt with the Space Program. A Dem then but when put forward today as a representative Dem, he would be far far less liberal than his brother Teddy. JFK actually believed the Reds were evil. He actually cut taxes as did Reagan years later. Both programs worked. Carter's era was filled with failure on foreign policy and domestically unemployment, debt, and the type of deflation-inflation numbers were simply out of sight.  Now, federal programs in 1964, began to really explode when LBJ put Medicare connected to the disability funds already in action as well as with some Social Security programs. It would throttle medical programs, injury problems, and disabilites. In fact, a new disabilities act would be the final outcome of this with even ole Bob Dole being involved. So we had even more entilements added to the Budget. And LJB in '64-65 also reformed the Immigration Act. He added the Latin American, Asian, African, Middle Eastern component and cut down on European immigration.  That would have huge implications for the decades to come especially after Nam.  Oh, and there was no TORT REFORM. And there never has been any tort reform to stop people like John Edwards et al.  Then came Reagan and the Cold War victories plus huge employment numbers , that is more jobs. The Left hated that. Then Clinton and the '94 Newt Revolution that also stopped Hillary Care in its tracks. Now we face it in spades all over again and it is even worse. The Obama Care agenda is pure socialist tripe and will add trillions to our debt. And oh, there are no more jobs, or construction activities with all the recent Stimulus, Tarps started by W, and now adding Cap and Trade to our debt, the differences between Pubs and Dems should be apparent even to Third Party wishers, the uninformed middle, the MSM, Indies, Reagan Dems et al. If not, they have not been paying attention. We are in the midst, in just 6 months, of the most revolutionary changes ever in this nation from a 47 yr. old naif who is a socialist pacifist. Period. No more excuses for this guy's inexperience. He is a radical who to be frank has no idea about what free enterprise, libertarian, Constitutional rights, and military power is all about.  This is a battle cry to stop this turnover of our American life. Joblessness goes up and up. That has happened once under Hoover and even Herbert had some good ideas which FDR employed in his First New Deal. Small business is being over-taxed. Personal taxes will go sky high. And will the liberal lemming voters even notice as the brightness and MSM salivating goes on to hide the real evil of this tyrant?? That will be the big question for citizens who must unite against all of this socialist radicalism now or face a future where the City Built on a Hill will collapse in ruin.
