Enough is enough. Congressional Democrats now want to discipline Rep. Wilson if he doesn't grovel in front of them, even though he has apoligized to just about everyone for his remarks (all two words of it) during Obama's address to Congress the other night.
While the Democrats can boo and hiss at George Bush during his State of the Union Address in 2005 with no consequences, let one Republican step out of line and the hammer is dropped without mercy.
I had to sit and listen to Democrats call conservatives and Republicans all kinds of things during the eight years of Bush, including Senators calling our troops killers and equating them will Nazis, etc. But God forbid if someone criticizes their President or their policies.
Not only did they at first support the war, then they didn't to the point of trying to get us to lose it. Well, I'm about to lose it.
Liberal groups can protest outside of Bush's ranch for months, act violently during international meetings, distrupt Senate hearings, and this is patriotism.
But when conservatives dissent, they are called all kinds of names, attacked personally, and generally marginalized.
This they way of the liberal, who is not liberal in his or her belief of democracy. They only like you if you agree with their attempt to control you.
I try to stay up with what liberals are writing and thinking, but it gets very tiring of reading personal attacks. Never address the issues. Just use name-calling. I gave that up in elementary school.
I wish they would too.

Not Afraid? You Will Be.
The facts are piling up faster than manure on a cattle ranch. If you're not worried, frightened, disgusted, or just plain ol' concerned about what our 44th President is doing, saying and planning, you must be living in a different world than the rest of us.
Here are three must reads. You be the judge.
The Obama-Pelosi deficits, from the Wall Street Journal
Insulter-in-chief, from the American Thinker.
Obama's Follies, from Victor David Hanson

Liberal Hypocricy Once Again
While our sympathies go out to the Kennedy family over Sen. Ted Kennedy's death last night, the whole affair again points to liberal hypocrisy.
Back in March, Rush Limbaugh made the comment that the national heath care bill would eventually be named for Ted Kennedy. He caught all kinds of flack -- from Democrats and liberals -- for his comment.
For example, the executive director of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee called Limbaugh's comments about Sen. Kennedy "truly outrageous." "“Leader Limbaugh crossed the line. National Republicans must stand up to their leader, Rush Limbaugh, and tell him that enough is enough.”
Yet now, after the Senator's death, Democrats are tripping all over themselves to name the bill in honor of Kennedy.
If a conservative suggests something, it's a horrendous deed; if a liberal suggests the same thing, it's just great.
If you don't see the hypocrisy, you're not living on the same planet. It is one of the reasons debating a liberal is just about impossible.

Hopeful signs are emerging
Both parties -- Democrats and Republicans -- have failed. Both are to blame for the problems we have, and both don't have real solutions. Our government has failed us. Politians are only interested in keeping and exercising power, and for decades have done nothing constructive, except dig us deeper into an already deep hole.
When George Washington stated "Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master," he was right.
When Ronald Reagan said that government was the problem, not the solution, he was right. When Thomas Paine said "Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one," he was right.
Thomas Jefferson judged government correctly:
Have we lost our way? This nation was founded on the principal that excessive government was tyranny, and what we have today is quickly approaching that condition, if it is not already here.
The Constitution of the United States states that any powers not specifically granted to the Federal government are to be granted to the States and Local governments! Much of what our Federal government in Washington has done over the last several decades is unconstitutional, yet the Supreme Court has gone along with this takeover.
The 10th Amendment:
Now we are seeing how our Republic works. If the people think the Federal government is taking too much power, we resist. This is not un-American, as Nancy Pelosi would have you believe. As one resident of San Franciso (Pelosi's home turf) said in a comment on www.sfgate.com:
Read more comments at the SFGate. I think you'll find the comments from this liberal bastion interesting.
I see a glimmer of hope that the American people will not let the Federal government become the tyranny our founders feared so much.

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.

I've been a Democrat since I came back from the War in 1968. Let me get this straight: When I demonstrated in the street for Affirmative Action, Womens Lib and Gay rights, I was being Patriotic. But if you demonstrate in the street against secret legislation not open to the public for discussion, you are Unamerican? What am I missing here? Obama declared August 1st as being: "The People's Deadline" for passing Healthcare that the Congress hadn't even read yet and the public didn't have any details about. He was acting and sounding just like Fidel Castro, Joseph Stalin and Mao Tse Tung. All those enlightened 20th Century Progressive Dictators were always spouting off about "The People's This & The People's That".
I'm a Liberal Democrat, but this guy is a buffoon. POWER TO THE PEOPLE-EVEN THE REPUBLICANS!

Liberal Insanity: Spend Your Way Out of Bankruptcy
The break with reality is complete. According to our esteemed Vice President, Joe Biden:
“We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation,” Biden said.
“Now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said. “The answer is yes, that's what I’m telling you.”
That should work, right?
I guess I'd better to spend at least twice what I bring in -- that way I won't go bankrupt either. That seems to be the current administration's plan, anyway.
And we've got 42 months left of this insanity? But have no fear. About once every 20 years, we have to give the liberals a chance to see if their programs will work. They never do, but they keep trying.
Besides, it's not the results of their programs; it's the intention. Screw the results -- we had good intentions.
Problem this time is that Obama and Pelosi are trying to ram this in quick before anyone really knows what going on. The damage, if they succeed, will be great.
