Scanning the news today, most items are repetitive and really, quite boring. But there was one that adds to my continuing belief that I’m either brain-dead or can’t comprehend what I read.
While I have no interest in the Virginia governor’s race whatsoever, since one of the candidates is a Clinton flunky and cohort, I read an article on FoxNews.com that included the following:
“The top candidates -- a quintessential Democratic insider and a Tea Party-backed Republican -- have engaged in an old-school political brawl that has included go-rounds on such issues as ObamaCare, gun control and women’s rights, while attracted more than $43 million in campaign donations.
Democratic nominee Terry McAuliffe leads GOP nominee Ken Cuccinelli by roughly nine percentage points in the once-reliable Republican state that voted for President Obama in 2012 and 2008 -- marking the first time since 1964 that a Democratic presidential nominee had won the state.”
And then I got to the part that confuses me completely, regarding candidate Cuccinelli’s platform, described as follows: “His campaign platform has been based in large part of such progressive ideals as the environment and gun control. However, Democrats have also tried to connect Cuccinelli to the recent federal government shutdown, his views on global warming and a donor scandal involving Republican Gov. Bob McDonnell, despite an ethic probe clearing Cuccinelli.”
So, here we have several issues where candidate Cuccinelli’s stances have proven to be absolutely correct, yet Democrats villainize him while completely ignoring hard facts.
Republicans shut the government down in a last ditch effort to try to prevent an ill-conceived new tax from the future harm it will do the citizenry, the overall economy, and ultimately the nation’s health care system itself. 94% of the population has no problem whatsoever with gun control laws in existence now, and not only isn’t the globe warming, temperatures haven’t changed at all in the past fifteen years.
As far as the scandal goes, I know absolutely nothing about it. But, obviously, candidate Cuccinelli was cleared of any wrongdoing.
Yet, Democrats not only keep harping on these issues, they scream even louder when they’re proven entirely wrong. And that’s the part that continually confuses me. Because either I’ve gone totally bonkers, or Democrats are the dumbest squad of ciphers that ever existed, permitting failed ideology to override incontrovertible facts.
And speaking of Democrats with mindsets that totally disregard facts, there are some who are not only absolutely incapable of learning anything that conflicts with their misguided theories, they continue to make glaring public fools of themselves. And here’s a mega-example from the washingtontimes.com/news
“President Obama issued an executive order Friday directing a government-wide effort to boost preparation in states and local communities for the impact of global warming.
The action orders federal agencies to work with states to build “resilience” against major storms and other weather extremes. For example, the president’s order directs that infrastructure projects like bridges and flood control take into consideration climate conditions of the future, which might require building structures larger or stronger — and likely at a higher price tag.”
So, after going through the health care tax start-up fiasco, and certainly aware of the hundreds of millions misspent on gross ineptitude, total incompetence and facing expectation of future failure, this guy turns around immediately to waste however many millions more on a fiction that doesn’t even exist.
And the real problem for anyone in the nation who has any money left at all, is that it will keep getting spent by the administration which doesn’t give a good GD how much their hare-brained schemes cost everybody else.
That’s it for today folks.
Adios
