Most of the GOP candidates are behind a very good plan that will bring the current depression to an end, thus bringing back economic activity and jobs.

It centers on reversing and nullifying and overturning all of the administrative actions that the various agencies – the EPA, the NLRB, etc. – have accomplished in Obama’s name (except, of course, that the lying Obama just looks blank and says “nope, that wasn’t me.”)

It includes reversing and cancelling ObamaCare. It involves searching for ways to retrieve all of the hundreds of billions handed out to Obama’s donors via “stimulus” checks. (Yeah, getting a few billion for helping raise money for Obama would stimulate the heck out of me, too.) Hopefully, it involves prison time for many of those thieves, as well as for the head thief.

But you think that the House ought to get started on this, and pass bills putting it into motion? Yeah, that would be a wise and efficient use of time. If any of those bills ever made it past Harry Reid, would they make it past the veto pen? Ha.

There are no little detailed steps that can be added on to what Obama has done that will cause all of this mess to work. Congress cannot just add a few small programs and hand out just a bit more money and – bingo! – see the economy run! All of what Obama has done needs to be erased, reversed, wiped out completely, disavowed, and ridiculed. All of it. The people still fighting for this disaster of a philosophy need to be whipped. Figuratively, of course. The cause of socialism, a/k/a crony capitalism, ought not receive any incremental gain from this abortion of an administration. Y’all tried your best to wreck it all, but you got caught before you could finish – don’t expect that your consolation prize will be that you only get to wreck part of it.
