Remember those famous photos we all saw of looters wading through the floodwaters of Katrina with their arms full of stolen goods?
When I think of Obama and the Congressional Democrats, I can’t help seeing Katrina coverage magnified by Federal looters. Mass shoplifting for gov’t officials.
Or I think of one of those game shows in which a contestant is put inside a department store and given 5 minutes to see how much free stuff she can cram into a shopping cart.
"When I think of Obama and the Congressional Democrats.." and Republicans?
ReplyDeleteThis leadership in DC needs to go. All of them. Sweep it clean, exorcise the foul spirits of corruption, and fill their seats with fresh blood.
Just as the Lord let the hard-hearted first generation die in the wilderness, and allowed the new generation have the promise land. (Though they fail as well.) Nevertheless, what have we got to lose?
Since the Democrats at the party in power, I don't think we can equally blame the Republicans.
ReplyDeleteMind you, I don't care for some of the Republican leadership in Congress. Although Mitch McConnell is a fine tactician (a la Parlimentary procedures), he's terribly out of touch with the base. Lacks a coherent ideology, from what I can tell. And, of course, I never cared for McCain.
"I don't think we can equally blame the Republicans."
ReplyDeleteI suppose not. And perhaps there are a hand full of Democrats who disagree with Pelosi, Reed, and Obama. Maybe a Heath Schuler, who is pro-life.
I'm not that in tune with our leaders. Here in Maryland we have the bottom of the barrel, and some really bad apples.
Have a blessed Lord's day.
