Several weeks ago I made several "tweets" on Twitter about the results of some U.S. elections. One thing I find quite striking is how similar the House and Senate majorities elected in 2008 are to those elected in 1992. Reviewing this brief list also confirms the view of many that big government harms our nation rather than helping it. For instance, consider the presidency of Woodrow Wilson, who also had a Democrat governing majority. During his watch the Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Reserve Bank were created.
And now, the "tweets" of the story:
>>2008 current House count is 255 Democrats (very similar to 1992 results as some have noted)-Pelosi/Reid will go too far to left and 2010? >about 1 hour ago from web
>>2006 elections result in return of House to Dem control, after a couple years of Republicans acting like big spending liberals-Reps lost way about >1 hour ago from web
>>1994 elections result in repudiation of big government policies,give Republicans control of House and Senate for first time in 40 years! about >1 hour ago from web
>>1992 elections gave Clinton a 258 seat majority in House of Reps and control of Senate-HillaryHealthcare,Interstate Banking Act,stronger CRA >about 1 hour ago from web
>>Imagine, people get to keep 72% of income at the highest level rather than 30% - talk about new capital available for economic growth! >about 1 hour ago from web
>>Why is he known as Ronaldus Magnus? Reagan accomplished what he did even though he never had a majority of House of Reps. Freedom works! >about 1 hour ago from web
>>Carter's bumbling also allowed fall of Shah which resulted in Muslim radical control of Iran,American hostage crisis,high interest,inflation >about 1 hour ago from web
>>1976 election results gave Carter a 292 seat majority in House of Reps-created Depts of Education,Energy and C.R.A.,gave away Panama Canal >about 2 hours ago from web
>>Result of 1964 elections gave Dems 295 seats in House of Reps. Can anyone say War on Poverty, Medicare/Medicaid,Vietnam War escalation? >about 2 hours ago from web
>>As result of 1936 elections there were only 88 Republicans in House of Reps! The next election Republicans gained 81 seats-FDR went too far >about 2 hours ago from web
There is not space enough to list the behemoths given life by FDR and his long majority in both houses of Congress. Suffice it to say that the depression only became The Great Depression after years of big government programs enacted by those in Washington, D.C. who could not effectively run the government but somehow thought they knew how to run the businesses across the land.
And what of LBJ and the hapless peanut farmer from Georgia? War On Poverty, Medicare, Departments of Energy and Education.
The Clintons' co-presidency is almost entirely responsible for the mortgage meltdown we now find ourselves in. Attorney General Janet Reno threatened banks with lawsuits if they did not make loans to people who could not possibly repay them. The Interstate Banking Act of 1994, passed while Clinton still had a Democratic majority in both houses of Congress, cleared the way for the likes of Lawrence Summers, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Robert Rubin, Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelick, Rahm Emanuel, Kent Conrad, Jim Johnson and a host of other Democrat Wall Street insiders to pillage the markets and then design plans to have taxpayer money fund their shananigans.
History makes clear that liberals and, might I add, their RINO accomplices, easily succumb to the drunken stupor of spending everyone else's money. Freedom loving citizens have as their duty taking away the keys of elected office from these ego-centric miscreants. Friends of freedom do not let politicans drive drunk on the spending of OUR MONEY! Take note, TARP and stimulus bill supporters - rooms are being prepared for you at the detoxification center known as a return to private life. WE THE PEOPLE are declaring 2010 as the year of sobering up. Got it? We're coming to take away the bottle.
