I hear it all the time on the news or in public from my Republican friends about taking back the house and senate from the "socialist" "liberal" Democrats which I guess is code word for "The Democrats are the new Al-Qaeda" or something like that. Anyways, I hear Republicans in the house say they are going to take back congress so they could do the work of the people. But wait a minute, didn?t the Republicans have a majority between 1995 and 2007. And yet, they increased the deficit by passing the Bush Tax Cuts and other budget-busting bills as well as starting two undeclared wars against two nations that had nothing to do with 9/11 because none of the hijackers came from Afghanistan. Then they passed Medicare Part D the same way: through backroom deals and so-called bribes. How can I or anyone trust the GOP now after the fact that they destroyed the trust of even their own supporters?
The answer is, we don?t because they and the Democrats increased the deficit and continued to print money out of thin air. How can the Republicans say with a straight face that they will fix Washington if we only elect good candidates. Wrong GOP, unless you stand on principles the way Ron Paul does, you will lose and your party will be reduced to nothing and go the way of the Whig Party.
Then, there is the constant ignoring and even denigration of the Ron Paul Revolution that we started in 2007 and we are still continuing. As long as the GOP continues to scare away college students like me who support Paul then they will be reduced to the Party of old, white senior citizens who complain about big government but are happy to collect disability checks, social security and unemployment benefits. As far as I?m concerned, I hope the GOP loses in 2010 because they have not earned the trust of the people and as Ron Paul said, they talk a good game, but when they do get in power, it?s the same-old same-old.
Through all this, why should we trust the GOP, it was them who put us on the path to this crisis, a crisis that was 100 years in the making from the very start and these numbskulls managed to pull it off. And to the Tea Party: what happens if the GOP does win? Does that mean you?ll remain silent because of your preconcieved notion that voting them out will help this country. You should realize that if the GOP gets in power again, they?ll do the same thing they have been doing under Bush. Of course what do I expect from the fact that most of the Tea Partiers are neocons and Republican. For all us libertarians, we are not going to be made fools just because you call yourself fiscally conservative. As for me, the Ron Paul Revolution continues on.
