The Patriot Post® · Flip-Flopping Disease Common to Both Parties
President Obama may send VP Joe Biden and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to the Vatican for the installation of Pope Francis. Perhaps Biden and Pelosi have already been “automatically” excommunicated as their words and actions have preceded them.
Staying in tune with bucking core values, Senator Rob Portman (R-Ohio) has endorsed same-sex marriage a “change of heart” that came after his son revealed to him two years ago that he was gay. Portman is typical of what is wrong with America by flip-flopping and endorsing the gay lifestyle just because his son came out of the closet.
The cultural status of the country is that I am against cultural gay lifestyle, but now that my progeny has adopted that lifestyle, I am compelled to rubber stamp not only the child, but also the negative gay lifestyle as well, because paraphrasing, “My son is a very intelligent person, and explained to me all about the value of the gay lifestyle.”
The right biblical way is to “Love the sinner, Hate the sin.” If my offspring robs a bank, that is no reason to condone the robbery by coming out in favor of it, saying that bank robbing is okay now that my child did that as a way of life. It is no wonder the country is in such a dismal state as core values and principles apply only to others and not to ourselves if our offspring are involved. PATHETIC.
Minority Leader Pelosi is what is wrong with Obama liberals who are blocking the Keystone XL Pipeline which will create jobs and so what if jobs created are not as great as claimed. Still, they are good tax-paying jobs that will produce oil that as much or little as it may be, reduces by that quantity of the amount needed to be imported. Meanwhile those jobs pay taxes that reduce deficit, debt, and dependency on government welfare, so where does Obama/Pelosi logic begin or end but in the john.
President Obama pledged to Senate Republicans that he will challenge his own party to consider entitlement reform. Obama is attempting to morph himself from being Don Rickles to become Mr. Nice Guy by telling his liberal lawmakers to cooperate with the Pubs to consider reduction of entitlements to reduce deficit and debt, denying allegations that he is setting a trap to win back the House of Representatives.
Obama is like the cheating husband caught with another woman and his pants down, saying it’s not what it looks like…deny, deny, deny, and eventually the gullible wife will perhaps believe the lie. America has bought his lies, hook, line, and sinker.
Obama is typical of gamblers who always think one more bad double-down bet will do the trick. Government “investment” programs are notorious for their failures but the big boys figure if a program fails, double the money spent on said bad program. They will never learn because they promote agendas that have no foundation except the intent to undermine traditional constitutional USA, converting America into a satellite of One-World failing European policies.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do, and American politicians pay homage to their roots by carbon-copying the failed policies of a European Union that is slowly but surely declining socially, morally, and now economically. As the good Lady Thatcher once said about the freebies of socialism, “Eventually you run out of other people’s money.”
Republican Senator Rand Paul has morphed into a perpetual campaigner for the presidency ala the previous failed GOP presidential nominees McCain and Romney, and bit by bit, word by word, he exposes himself as to just what and who he is – an opportunist trying to ride his father’s coattails, but dad Ron Paul was his own man, come what may. Too bad American voters did not see it that way.
It is a long road till 2016 and maybe Senator Rand Paul incessant campaigning and blatant fund raising should be put on hold until the cream rises to the top. Do today’s job well and not be purely ambitious, as just being a perennial wannabe is not good for the country. Aspiring politicians must do today’s job well and let tomorrow take care of itself.
The US is in perpetual campaign mode in which nothing can be accomplished until after the next election at which time the process repeats itself; a perpetual Groundhog Day that is only resolved in the movies.
