Apparently, since the last time the Democrats decided to shut down the government worked out so well for them, it should come as no surprise that they actually seem to be contemplating doing so once again. Proving yet again that Democrats are focused only on what’s best for their party and not on what’s best for the American people. Democrats are determined to stymie President Trump’s agenda to dig the country out from under the mess that was left behind by Joe Biden. Meanwhile, the Democrat strategy appears to be one focused on the midterm elections with the plan being to prevent any economic gains from being made between now and then.
And it
was during an interview that aired just this past Wednesday on the “PBS
NewsHour,” that Rep. Jimmy Panetta, another of those who few outside his
district have likely ever heard of, responded to a question on whether
Democrats should shut the government down over healthcare by saying that he
doesn’t want a shutdown, but “it’s gotten to that situation where we’ve had to
shut down the government in order to fix our differences.” So, here we have another
no name leftwing clown actually admitting that the last shutdown, which they
said was a Republican shutdown, was actually inspired by the Democrats. It really
is getting a little difficult to follow along.
“NewsHour”
Correspondent Lisa Desjardins asked, “There’s a funding deadline in January, at
the end of January. Should Democrats demand healthcare action in return for
funding government again?” Panetta said, “Look, that’s what we demanded during
the shutdown, and we got to this point right now. And, hopefully, that’s
something where we’ll be able to fix it in early January, because the last
thing we want is a government shutdown. That’s not what I wanted back then.
It’s not what I’ve wanted throughout my time in Congress. But, unfortunately,
it’s gotten to that situation where we’ve had to shut down the government in
order to fix our differences."
This guy
went on to say, “Hopefully, this is something, with this discharge petition, we
can pass it out of the House, get it to the Senate, and then have something, a
foundation to extend the tax credits well before the budget deadline.” So he
admits that the Democrats did what they claimed they didn’t do so far after the
fact that their voters will be unlikely to figure it out. So first, a Democrat
admits that it was a Democrat shutdown and second, in Democrat-speak, “fixing
our differences” actually translates into “letting the minority rule.” And so,
in their usual infantile manner, if Democrats can’t dominate the sandbox, then they’ll
simply choose to piss in it.
The
Democrats had a temper tantrum and shut down the government from October 1 to
November 12 and got nothing for it. So they apparently think that if at first
you don’t succeed… But then what else have they got? We elect those who we hope are responsible
people to create laws that benefit us all, but that doesn’t work when one side
insists only on pouting and stamping their feet or threatening to hold their
breath until they turn blue. How fitting. Democrats seem convinced that a
shutdown will help them heading into November’s midterm elections. Democrats
repeat the same offenses for the same reason, that being to advance their
agenda to destroy our country.
Democrats
only want to shut down the government out of fear, fear that President Trump is
right about there being an economic boom looming right around the corner. It
used to be that shutting down the government was something considered, by both
sides, to be the last resort and totally unthinkable. But then that was a
different time. Today the Democrats seem to be of the opinion that a little suffering
on the part of the people is acceptable, especially if it leads to some level political
gain for their party. And their many allies in the ‘fake news’ media are always
quite eager to provide any amount of political cover that might be needed.
So it
would seem that Democrats learned nothing from their 40+ day Schumer shutdown. Meanwhile
President Trump got a lot done and the Democrats essentially got nothing. And President
Trump continues to get a lot done. Venezuela drug boats being blown out of the
water, ICE deporting thousands, gas prices have dropped, and numerous wars have
been ended. So, if Democrats want to shut down the government again it’s OK
with me. They have to shut down the government. It is their only tool for
slowing what’s likely to be some strong economic growth prior to the midterms. Personally,
I’m open to shutting down the government, completely and permanently.
The
primary motive when it comes to the Democrats method of choice of how best “to
fix our differences” has likely much to do with trying to come up with ways to
increase their odds of winning the midterms. And while it’s Democrats talking
about shutting down the government, they will most assuredly claim that they’re
not the ones responsible for any shutdown. Democrats are pure evil. They put
their desire for power and control over the wellbeing of the American people,
those who support them and those who don’t. Anyone foolish enough to believe that
these people genuinely care about the plight of the American people brought
about by their policies are…fools!
Obamacare
was, is, and will continue to be nothing but a complete disaster that was
shoved through in the dark of night by many of the same Democrats now desperate
to save it. Costs soared, monopolies formed while independent healthcare
entities went down. Longer waits, more co-pays. Rather than fixing the problem Democrats
want only to throw more taxpayer money at it. The only thing they have is shutting
down the government, Democrats have no plans to change Obamacare with its sky-high
rates, and sky-high deductibles, for absolutely no coverage. So while taxpayers
are forced to pay our own premiums we’re forced make things “affordable” for
others.
And finally, marching
toward a single payer healthcare system is not a solution. Writing a blank
check to insurance companies is a failed policy. Group insurance controlled by
consumers will bring down costs. Asking Democrats to be smart about legislation
is an oxymoron. Looking back, who was it that didn’t see this healthcare fiasco
coming when the Democrats, acting strictly on their own, passed it and ‘BO’
signed it. Anytime the government gets involved, the only possible outcome is a
shitstorm of inefficiencies and billions of taxpayer dollars disappearing down yet
another governmental shithole. And the Democrat solution? Shut down the
government.
