Never, never vote for a republican \u2013\u00a0EVER \u2013 PERIOD<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\"No<\/a><\/p>\n

In a \u201cLetters to the Editor\u201d in our local newspaper a correspondent made the statement that while he was a Democrat he always voted for the person who he thought would do the best job or was best for the position being voted on weather that person was\u00a0Democrat or a republican.<\/p>\n

I nearly fell out of my chair I was so angry! How, I wondered, how could any thinking, self-respecting, knowledgeable Democrat be so\u00a0DUMB as to EVER vote for a republican?? \u00a0Of course, the answer was obvious almost instantly: this was NOT a knowledgeable Democrat and\u00a0this person\u00a0considered himself far too smart for his own good.\u00a0In addition, he displayed one of the great weaknesses\u00a0of Democrats: he was trying to be fair on all fronts. Won\u2019t work folks and in fact this is why we fail as Democrats to correctly identify the conservative cancer which is infecting our society and threatening to destroy it from within.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll say it\u00a0again plainly and then explain why:<\/p>\n

NEVER, NEVER VOTE FOR A republican \u2013 EVER \u2013 PERIOD!<\/span><\/p>\n

The reason is that regardless of weather the republican is a decent human being, perhaps a great father\/mother, member of the community, neighbor, church going, god fearing wonderful person, when it comes to a vote regarding issues before the elected body which he\/she might serve on, that republican will vote the way that the party leadership \u2013 in the case of republicans that\u2019s the tea party \u2013 tells him\/her to. PERIOD.<\/p>\n

Some people have tried to tell me that this is not true and that decent republicans have a conscience and will vote on an issue according to their principles. NOT SO\u00a0IF they want to hold their position after the next election.\u00a0Vote against the tea party line without their explicit permission<\/em> and you are gone as a republican lawmaker at the next election. History does not lie and the facts are there for ALL to see.<\/p>\n

A major point\u00a0that you all need to understand here\u00a0is that ALL \u2013 without exception \u2013 people who get elected to public office spend the majority of their time and efforts after the election getting ready for the next election so that they can keep their position. PERIOD. This is the major task on the elected\u2019s agenda. If you don\u2019t understand this simple fact then you are dumber than a fence post and you should have your voting credentials revoked. There is NO honor above getting re-elected for an office holder.<\/p>\n

The problem with Democrats is that mostly we are fair minded, logical people who think\u00a0(way too much) about the\u00a0issues and try to identify the best course of action that will benefit the majority of the people including ourselves. Not so with a republican\/conservative mindset. Theirs is the \u201cI\u2019ve got mine, screw you\u201d attitude and the \u201cHow can I make a personal profit out of this problem\u201d. Don\u2019t laugh, its the truth and you know it and they know it.<\/p>\n

As for running for office as a republican\/conservative, these days\u00a0you are beholding to the tea party even if they don\u2019t give you a red cent. The reason is that IF you per chance got elected, you are now under their tent and IF you don\u2019t tow the tea party line, you get \u201cprimaried\u201d during the next election cycle. What that means is that the tea party will field\u00a0their own\u00a0republican\/conservative to defeat you in the primary and fund and support him\/her. Your job is gone and\u00a0you is history \u2013 PERIOD.<\/p>\n

What seems to confuse a lot of people is that the Democrats used to do this sort of thing in the past back when there was some truth to the republican theme \u201cGOP-Government Of The People\u201d. People seem to remember that part but forget that today, the Democrats are the real Government Of the People party\u00a0and that the republicans are now the party of the WRICH (wealthy + rich), exclusively.\u00a0Thirty years ago and earlier, all the way back to the Civil War, the two parties ideology was reversed. It\u2019s simple history and its all there for you to checkout for yourself.<\/p>\n

One day there will be a reckoning with the American people when they really begin to understand what has happened. Then\u00a0we\u00a0will see the\u00a0tea party either self destruct \u2013 probably not since they are so well funded \u2013\u00a0begin to move to the center of American political thought \u2013 again, based on their wrich benefactors, probably not \u2013 or they will become something else, say\u00a0the Democratic Tea\u00a0Party, funded by billionaires and dedicated to the proposition that all wrich people are created to have and keep all the money or some other such nonsense.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
