Last week I was reading this, pointing to the fact that the esteemed crankly leftist leader of the Senate is in deep doo-doo concerning his upcoming reelection bid. Nevadans favor, at this moment, GOP candidate Danny Tarkanian over Reid 49 to 38 percent. Wow.
So is it surprising that Reid is seeming a bit more boorish and unsettled than usual? Did you as an ordinary citizen display such behaviour recently if/when you lost your job due to Obamanomics?
A Senator, a man on the ropes with his career of fleecing -
"I hope you go out of business."
Hmm, you're probably thinking, of whom is the venerable Reid speaking, it must be someone particularly bad?
Nope it was a Mr. Bob Brown, the advertising director of Nevada's Review Journal.
It seems that the Journal has been not-so-enthusiastic about Scowling Harry, the Annointed Nevadaian. Harry likes it non. Did you know that Harry also supports the so-called Fairness Doctrine?
Of course he does, one set of rules for us, one for them. Hat-tip to Stogie @ Saberpoint for the great pics.
I just came across this article at the Las Vegas Review-Journal as well. I love the author's tone.
Moving on in the spirit of job-stress, I point you dear reader to a Politico article pointing to Democrats possibly losing massively in the 2010 election.
If this is the case, I just pray that the GOP finds it's way back to it's limited government roots. Somehow I am a bit skeptical as I have been MCcain'ed,(as in caned and flogged by party leadership, leaving the base at the back 'o the bus), way too many times with the party. It's up to us in the grassroots to usher in a new leadership of real conservatives.
Speaking of real conservatives, remember how the United States is still a center-right nation? Well the Daily Presidential Tracking Poll at Rasmussen shows Americans waking more and more to the fact that the Obamanation is antithetical to this philosophical heritage, pictured below, 30% of Americans now strongly approve of the Obamanation and 41% strongly dissaprove. Wow. Of note as well, 57% would throw out the entire Congress and start over.
Hopefully the sound Reid hears is his political career flushing down the toilet.
ReplyDelete"It's up to us in the grassroots to usher in a new leadership of real conservatives."
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely correct. Limited-government conservatives need to take over the GOP.
That's wonderful! Unfortunately, I am still angry at the Republican party for all their spending and unconstitutional acts. I and husband vote Libertarian, if one's available. If any Repub's run in our area, they'd better be libertarian in their views but I know everyone here probably feels the same way. :)
ReplyDeleteI read this story early this morning and I think it's good that the paper understand their place in the state and they are justified in locking horns with Reid.
ReplyDeleteAgain, these senators and reps are getting too big for their britches. Term limits. Oh, and "Do it for Teddy!" Not.
I think the GOP is going to listen to the conservatives next year. It would serve them well.
ReplyDeleteReid is going to get to leave the Senate in 2010 as Nevadans and our fellow countrymen deserve better. Much better. Yet for as bad as he is, Reid isn't the worst of the worst by any measure. We shouldn't concentrate our national energies to oust him as the GOP did to Daschle. We are quite confident that the voters of Nevada will be able to dismiss Reid on their own.
ReplyDeleteFar worse examples of radical ideology and rampant corruption are found in Schumer, Boxer, and Dodd.
@ J Summet - Couldn't agree more...
ReplyDelete@ RK - It's up to us my friend.
@ Sparky - Funny, I have done the same thing too, I am registered libertarian. I don't say it much here but it's true, you could probably guess by much of my writings....
@ blue - I agree, it's cool to see an editor sound like one should.
@ Chuck - It would, I'm crossing my fingers.
@ Nac - Next stop then, Schumer, Boxer and Dodd. I hate Boxer the most, being from CA.
