The People’s Victory!
Nothing is better than victory. The Republicans and the Tea Party Movement have shown the White House and the arrogant Democrat leadership that we the people really can make a difference and can change the balance of power when provoked.
Republicans now control the House of Representatives. I find that rich in historical significance. This is the chamber of Congress that was designed to most represent the wishes of the people at the closest level to their homes—a district. Maybe we can now expect some representation of our wishes and not the steamrolling dictatorship that Pelosi, Reid and Obama constituted.
I have been ignoring this site for quite some time. It has not been from lack of enthusiasm or lack of disdain for President Obama’s abusive and arrogant use of power, but instead because of a common sense need to focus on my business and make sure that it continues to function well and grow. I have noticed that the number of viewers of the site has steadily grown despite the lack of new content. This is clearly indicative of an electorate that was and is fed up—an electorate that wanted real hope and desired to keep its change rather than give it to Washington bureaucrats.
I will try to write more frequently from now on. If President Obama continues to ignore the message from November 2, you can count on my discussing it here. I also invite anyone who is interested in having guest spots on this blog to contact me. My e-mail is robert at this domain name.
Let’s now take a moment to savor this great victory!

“The People’s Victory?” How odd that you start this post off with a nod to communist rhetoric…
Anyhoo, the thing that surprised me back in November and that still surprises me is the way the Right would portray the recent election as a referendum on Democrats and liberalism in general on the part of “the common man.”
The Republicans were annihilated in 2008. Does that mean that, in 2008, the Democrats alone embodied the will of the common man? Certainly not.
What is means is this: The American public is terribly fickle. When times are tough, populism in the vein of “throw ‘em all out” rears its head and the dominant party (by virtue of their dominance) invariably suffers for it.
I, for one, am please that the so-called “Party of No” now has some accountability and that the rhetoric of the Tea Party may now be put to an honest test. Too long have both groups stood on the sidelines and chuffed about their glorious plans with no fear, no possibility of being exposed as frauds. It’s time to put up or shut up, boys. Don’t just obstruct, it’s time to legislate. Do it if you dare.
The next time Americans go to the polls, they’ll have two parties to blame and you’d better hope things are looking up by then or it might be 2008 all over again.
Side note: Their noise about “Obamacare” notwithstanding, Jan Brewer and the Republican legislature of Arizona have literally become a “Death Panel.” See the sad tale of Felix Francisco in my url for more.
