“The fact is, elections shouldn’t matter as much as they do.” It’s disconcerting to see this statement by a member of the U.S. House in light of the uproar going on in the Middle Eastern countries. Not just any member, mind you, but the Democtrats' leading voice on Capitol Hill, former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.
In a novel by Dostoyevsky, the Grand Inquisitor reasons with a returned Jesus who has been going around healing people, apologizing for the fact that the Established Church will have to crucify Him again because He doesn’t agree with their religion. With just such a line of reasoning, Republicans are piously attempting to crucify President Obama for not agreeing with their right-wing perversion of the GOP.
Every day now we awake to new more dire predictions of a massive nuclear meltdown in Japan in as many as four reactors from the recent earthquake and Tsunami, yet another revolution in the Middle East with a sadistic insane leader ordering his troops to shoot his own people and the U.

America is headed toward financial disaster and Mr. O. thinks we should raise taxes on the “rich” and cut spending by some miniscule amount. This isn’t a solution; it’s a prescription for disaster. Congress needs to pass Rep. Paul Ryan’s (R-WI) plan to reduce our debt by trillions and put us on the path to a balanced budget. Our taxes are more than adequate to run the government once it is right-sized. It’s Congress that has “deficit attention disorder.”
