The apparent 2016 Democrat Presidential Candidate, Former First Lady and personal friend of the late Vince Foster, Hillary Rodham Clinton, related the following story the other day…
We were in another one of these dramas in Washington — would we or would we not default on our debt? And all the business leaders wanted to talk to me about was, ‘was the United States going to default on its debt?’ And I kept saying, ‘Oh, of course not. We would never do that.’ And just hoping and praying that I was right.
What I saw, in that incident, was bewilderment. Like, how could the United States do that to itself? Especially countries that believe in our model, really cherish our values, want to be moving more toward our example.
Fast forward, this last time — as I talked to people around the world — there was a sense like, ‘if you guys can’t get your act together, we need to de-Americanize the world.’ Which was a phrase used by a high-ranking Chinese official. That is not good news for us. That is a very unfortunate conclusion.
So we have to pull ourselves together. We have to stand up, solve our problems. Everybody is not going to get everything they want. We have to get back to good old fashioned compromise and we have to make those decisions that reassure America’s leadership at home and abroad.
“De-Americanize the World”? That is absolutely hilarious, coming from the Chinese, who have, over the past decade, been turning themselves into a Communist Model of a Capitalist Country.
But, I digress…
Is it just me, or have y’all noticed the renewed cry for “Compromise” in the Halls of Power in Washington, DC?
And, the funny thing is, this renewed cry of “Can’t we all just get along” is coming when the President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm), has dropped to a very low 37% Job Approval Rate in National Polls, which are always composed to be weighted with more Democrat participants than Republicans.
Hence, the Former “First Mama’s” “Call for Compromise”, even while her Democrat brethren and sisters in the Senate dropped the Nuclear Option, taking away the right to filibuster in the Senate, as I reported yesterday.
If the Hildebeast was a physician, I would tell her to “heal thyself”. But, since she isn’t, she needs to just “heal”.
I find it quite funny and revealing that the Democrats are calling for “compromise”.
Heck, they always do when they realize that the things they want to do, are the exact opposite of the will of the majority of the American People….and those same citizens, who can fire their sorry rear-ends every 2 years, are beginning to rise up on their hind legs, like a lion about to drop a zebra on the Serengeti.
Look at the facts: As I just mentioned, you have a president whose Signature Legislation, quite frankly, Marxist in nature, is now opposed by 93% of the American People, and whose job approval rating is going down like the Titanic into the icy depths of oblivion.
The Democrats are calling for Compromise in an act of desperation, feverishly attempting to hold on to whatever power and, **cough** credibility they have left.
Now, as any average American with common sense, out here in the Heartland will tell you, when your opponent in a fight is about to land face-first on the ground after a knockout punch, you don’t hold him up and hit yourself in the face at the same time.
However, that is exactly what Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, and the rest of the Vichy Republicans are doing.
Lacking any sense of self-preservation, these spineless Professional Politicians, while giving lip service to those who elected them in the Mid-Term Massacre of 2010, are still reaching across the aisle to their political opponents, offering them support and succor as one would a family member in their time of need.
At the same time, Mitch McConnell came out the other day, and called The Tea Party Movement, who gave the Republicans the House of Representatives in 2010, “a bunch of bullies”.
To quote the late , great Slim Pickens in “Blazing Saddles”,
What is the Wide, Wide World of Sports is a’goin’ on here?
And to pile on in the Vichy Republican Race to Extinction, House Speaker John Boehner, has proclaimed that they are “not through with Immigration Reform, yet”.
What is the matter with you guys? As we say down here in Dixie,
Are y’all just ate up with “The Stupid”?
I can’t hear the high-pitched whines of the young and dumb, and old and didactic Liberals out there, right now,
But, your President, Reagan, compromised, all the time!!! 1!1! Eleventy!!!
Why, yes, he did. But, 99.99% of the time,,,he got what HE wanted, in the first place…and usually, what the American People wanted. He did his job as the President.
Please compare and contrast to the no-compromise Petulant President who meanders his way into the Oval Office, Monday through Friday, around 10:00 a.m., and puts his feet on the Resolute desk.
If you believe that President Reagan would have allowed the Nuclear Option to have been dropped in the Senate during his lifetime, you probably still live in your Mom’s basement.
In the Real World,you negotiate from a position of strength, in order to achieve the goals you have set. You are prepared to give the perception of compromise, all the while, moving your opponent in the direction you want them to go, all the while keeping something in your hip pocket, to be used to your advantage.
Unfortunately, both the Democrats and the Vichy Republicans have construed the definition of “Compromise” to mean a surrender of Conservative ideals and Poltical Ideology, and an acceptance all Liberal Political Stances.
If this blatant, oblivious, self-serving stupidity of the part of both Political Parties continues, both Congress’ and Obama’s numbers are going to continue to tank.
And, the Mid-Term Election of 2010 will pale in comparison to 2014.
And, that will be a good thing.
Until He Comes,

I appreciate your optimism KJ, but I don’t believe the mid-term election in 2010 will pale in comparison to the 2014 midterm election. The Stupid Party establishment will do everything they can to prevent conservative candidates from winning around the country in ’14. Their number one priority is staying in their seats which they’ve become too comfortable in, not in forwarding conservative ideas & candidates. If a 3rd conservative party doesn’t form soon the Democrats can look forward to one party rule for a long, long time & The Stupid Party will be relegated to the wilderness they deserve. To be honest with you I think they will be happy in the wilderness too. The Stupid Party has only one primary function now. To prevent conservatism from making gains of any kind in the party. They’re dead to me & I don’t see things turning around. The Stupid Party will just keep on moving further left & the nation will continue it’s slide into irrelevance & tyranny. God is America’s ONLY hope now. This is where conservatism should concentrate it’s efforts now. God can do things The Stupid Party will NEVER do.
