Midknight Review -- new and revised: Democrats are backed into a corner by a crafty GOP leadership

Democrats are backed into a corner by a crafty GOP leadership

That is my headline for what happened yesterday in the Senate. Understand that Barack Obama has returned to his failed strategy of demanding a tax hike for the rich, a move, should it become law, that would supply eight days of revenue each year for the Spend Happy Democrats. Senate Minority Leader, Mitch McConnell, yesterday, demanded a vote on that very demand. Harry Reid refused to entertain the vote putting the Democrat Party on record as refusing its own president’s campaign request.

We wait to see if this effects the rhetoric of either presidential candidate.

In the House, a vote is being taken today, July 11, on the repeal of ObamaCare. Many see this vote as a total waste of time, and, indeed, that would be the case if this vote was only about the repeal of the ObamaCare Tax Act. But, such is not the case. Rather, this vote is as much about putting Democrats on record – just before a critical election – as it is a 31^st declaration against this most unpopular piece of legislation.

Hats off to the Republican leadership in both houses of congress. Nothing wrong with putting politicians on record, forcing them to declare their future intentions just before an election.

Obama has no more complaint with regard to the GOP and raising taxes on the rich . . . . . none. The GOP has agreed to a vote on the matter. The Democrats responded by abdicating their legislative responsibilities once again.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
