Yeah. It’s not that complicated, is it?

The biggest problem I see driving so much of what is happening right now is that POR and their cohorts are exactly like the armed robber who has a gun to your head. As long he’s holding the gun, it doesn’t MATTER that you tell him there IS no money in the house.

They have the smug sense of sense possessed by the older brother who’s holding the book high over the head of the younger sister, who’s yelping, “Give me my book!” and he just looks down at her and says, “Can’t make me!” They care that their doctrine can be factually shot full of holes. They ARE shameless and this empowers them.

This morning hubby and I got a postcard thingy from Social Security that started out with the words, “Good news!”….and then told us that in May we will be receiving a $500 additional, one time deposit to our account as part of the idiot’s porkulous package. All I could think of was, “Thanks for nothing, fool. You’ve just increased our share of the national debt by $500 and we’ll be paying for it in taxes the rest of our lives.”

The leftists have LIVED angry and full of rage. They’re used to it. One of the issues for conservatives may be learning how to use our anger effectively OVER THE LONG HAUL. We’re not used to “living angry” and don’t find it particularly attractive. But this is NOT going to be a short, quick fix.

We’re going to have to get at it, and stay at it, stay angry and stay focused and be effective in what we do with that anger. I don’t doubt we can do it. Just sayin’.
