The Lame Duck Congress Really Is Lame

The Socialist controlled lame duck Congress really is lame. While more than 15 million Americans are unemployed, Socialist Senator Dirty Harry Reid, the majority leader of the Senate and soon to be former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, are fiddling while Rome is burning. The Bush Tax cuts will expire on December 31st. If the Congress does not take action to extend the Bush Tax cuts before then, the American people will experience the biggest tax increase in US history. And, it will actually be greatest for the so called Middle Class that Socialist President Obama claims to champion in his class warfare arguments. In addition, the Socialist controlled Congress has failed to pass a budget for the next fiscal year. Shortly, we will see a government shut down if they don't stop all the nonsense and get their act together.

The Republicans were absolutely on target to tell Dirty Harry that nothing else will happen in the lame duck Congress unless the Bush Tax Cuts are extended and a budget is enacted to keep the government in business. This is an appropriate use of the filibuster and hard ball politics. Instead, Dirty Harry is pushing the Dream Act to give illegal aliens American citizenship. And then the President wants the Senate to ratify the Nuclear Arms Treaty with the Russians that will limit our missile defense. The Socialists would like to pass Card Check as a pay back to their big union supporters that would end the secret ballot needed now to determine if a union will be imposed on a company. And then Dirty Harry also wants to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell, which would allow Gays to serve openly in the military. The Socialists have controlled the Congress since 2006 and now they want to get all these things done in less than two weeks. It is ridiculous!!

Obviously, the Socialists realize that many of these things will not happen after January 3, when the Republicans come to town and take over the House of Representatives so they are trying desperately to get these laws passed. None of these bills should be enacted by the lame duck Congress given the will of WE THE PEOPLE that was expressed last November. Clearly, though the President was not on the ballot last November, his Socialist Schemes were on the ballot. The people said HELL NO to ObamaCare, CAP & TAX and SwindleUS Plans to bail out big unions. Obama, Reid and Pelosi obviously did not get the message. As 15 million Americans remain unemployed, the Socialists are focused on all these other issues rather than growing our economy.

If the Bush Tax Cuts are not extended, we will see unemployment go up next year. And while government employment has grown by 100,000 workers in the last two years since Obama was elected President, millions of private sector jobs have disappeared while the Socialists focused on ObamaCare and CAP & TAX instead of the economy. Enough is enough!!

We have got to sweep these Socialists out of office in 2012 and 2014 to take back our county. We must elect Conservatives who support free market capitalism, limited government, lower taxes and less regulation, a balanced budget, term limits, real education, energy and health care reform, a strong national defense, including securing our border and fighting Terrorism, the right to bear arms, the sanctity of life and family values that are the foundation of our nation. This is the winning platform supported by the majority of the American people and the only way to restore economic growth and job creation in America.

Most important, we must elect Conservatives who will adhere to the Constitution, as written by our Founding Fathers, not as contrived by the left wing media, Socialists in the last 97 years, former Presidents, Congresses, or the Courts. We must take back our country in 2012 and 2014. We can do it. We must do it to preserve our freedom, our nation and way of life and for the sake of our children and grandchildren.
