Republicans got a huge boost from the president over the weekend. Since he obviously has no clue as to how to get the economy back on track, it appears he's decided to go back to appeasing his base by calling for job-killing tax hikes. By doing that he'll lose virtually all independents whom he dearly needs to have any chance at re-election. So, in a nutshell he's made up his mind to stand his philosophical ground, thereby committing political hari-kari.
While this certainly looks like wonderful news for the GOP, there might be a slight hitch regarding the upcoming election for them too, because they aren't too well-liked either. Ongoing polls indicate that there are few folks on the planet that the public thinks are worse than politicians, except maybe for ambulance chasing lawyers and other sleazes like that.
Then again, the administration may have other issues to deal with aside from voter erosion. Because the growing Solyndra fiasco just might unglue them altogether by exposing how grossly arrogant, self-serving and incompetent they truly are. And the more information that surfaces, the more obvious it becomes that billions of taxpayer's dollars are used as payback to incumbent's friends and allies.
So, maybe if we're lucky we'll see another parade of perp-walks and resignations in the near future for mis-use of funds and won't have to wait another fourteen agonizing months for the voting-public to throw all these bums out altogether.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
