I got that one right…
Back in September of 2009 I posted the following:
German voters decide to deal with their economic downturn by electing a right of center majority that plans to cut taxes in order to stimulate economic growth.
According to Bloomberg, voters rejected the plans of the “Social Democratic challenger to raise taxes on top earners.”
I’m betting that their plan will work better than our Dear Leader’s socialist fantasies.
Let’s take a look at how that actually turned out. According to the BBC:
“Germany’s economy minister Rainer Bruederle has given an upbeat assessment of his country’s recovery, including the assertion that full employment will soon be possible. He said that Germans were doing well and spending again, and that domestic consumption was strong. Data released this week showed German business confidence at a 20-year high.”
Mean while, here in the US with our Dear Leader and his democrat party running the Executive and Legislative branches of the federal government, we have had a shocking high employment rate, a lackluster recovery (and that is being generous) and continuous tax payer funded payouts to that have not been designed to spur growth, but to reward democrat supporters. We have real unemployment rate hovering around 15% and the democrat lame duck congress looking to extend unemployment benefits beyond 99 weeks. If they had actually done anything to actually boost the private sector economy, that extension wouldn’t be necessary.
All you need to know about Obamacare…
The New England Healthcare Institute – known as NEHI – is a nonprofit, independent health policy institute dedicated to transforming health care for the benefit of patients and their families.
They are probably better educated about the details of Obamacare than the democrats in Congress who voted for it, and they don’t want any part of it!

First, we see just what the liberal democrats spent the “stimulus” money on…
Next, we learn that most lefties have no clue to what a Keynesian is and even worse, when they do, they are still pretty damn clueless.

Quote of the Day
“This is not an election on November 2. This is a restraining order. Power has been trapped, abused and exploited by Democrats. Go to the ballot box and put an end to this abusive relationship. And let’s not hear any nonsense about letting the Democrats off if they promise to get counseling.”

The democrat vote fraud is starting early and occurring often
This should not be a surprise to anyone paying attention.
Mr. Reynolds has a good round up of recent democrat vote fraud.
Nevada: Voter Joyce Ferrara said when they went to vote for Republican Sharron Angle, her Democratic opponent, Sen. Harry Reid’s name was already checked. Ferrara said she wasn’t alone in her voting experience. She said her husband and several others voting at the same time all had the same thing happen.”
North Carolina: “Sam Laughinghouse of New Bern said he pushed the button to vote Republican in all races, but the voting machine screen displayed a ballot with all Democrats checked. He cleared the screen and tried again with the same result, he said.”
Let’s not forget the vote fraud experts at ACORN. You remember Acorn. Numerous convictions on vote fraud and long and deep ties to our Dear Leader, Barack Hussein Obama.
More details at Michelle Malkin’s site.
From the 2008 election.

A couple of Key Quotes to keep in mind:
MA democrat Barney Frank: “I think it is clear that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are sufficiently secure so they are in no great danger… I don’t think we face a crisis; I don’t think that we have an impending disaster. …Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac do very good work, and they are not endangering the fiscal health of this country.”
CA democrat Maxine Waters: “I have sat through nearly a dozen hearings where, frankly, we were trying to fix something that wasn’t broke. [sic] …These GSEs have more than adequate capital for the business they are in: providing affordable housing. As I mentioned, we should not be making radical or fundamental change… If there is anything to fix or improve, it is the [regulators].”

Proof Martha Coakley Gave Immunity to Dianne Wilkerson
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Politics, The Peoples Commonweath
Martha Coakley is the current Massachusetts AG. She is not interested in actually performing the duties of her office, instead she sees as a stepping stone to higher office.
That is why I’m voting for Jim McKenna. If you are a registered voter in Massachusetts, you should vote Jim for AG as well.
Mass democrats run a tax cheat for State Auditor
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Politics, The Peoples Commonweath
It’s politics as usual for the massively corrupt Massachusetts democrat party.
Their candidate for State Auditor is a tax cheat.
That is pretty much all you need to know about the democrat party here in the Peoples’ Commonwealth.
Oh, and that Mary Z. Connaughton is the Republican running for State Auditor.
democrat Culture of Corruption marches on…
House Member Eleanor Holmes Norton, a democrat, made a fundraising call to a lobbyist, and left voice mail where she flat out hits the lobbyist up for cash.
