SNATCHING DEFEAT FROM THE JAWS OF VICTORY

Republicans were finally unified enough to force a showdown with Obama.  By standing up for their principles and opposing new taxes, Republicans were poised for a great victory.  When all is said and done, if Republicans refuse to raise the debt ceiling, Obama will have to decide what to pay and what to cut.  No matter what decision he makes, it will be a political disaster.  However, RINO Senators are rushing in with another brilliant plan guaranteed to lose the day.  Once again a handful of RINOs, who think they are the smartest people on earth are sabotaging the best efforts of our conservative leaders:

The first clue should be that Obama likes it.  Earth to RINO’s:  If Obama likes it, he either doesn’t understand it or it’s a really bad idea. 

Even if this is a great idea, it is still extremely damaging to Republicans.  It allows the main stream media to portray conservative Republicans as stubborn fools who refuse to consider reasonable proposals.  It is a “lose-lose” situation for Republicans and it just another in a long list of examples where conservatives have been royally screwed by RINOs.  Obama who has shown no leadership skill and who has been unwilling to consider compromise will come out smelling like a rose.  Republicans never gain from compromising with those who are determined to keep us on the path to destruction.    

This is more proof as to why we need to remove RINO’s from office.  They are more dangerous than liberal Democrats, because at least with liberal Democrats we know which side they are on. 

This proposal may be great.  It may be horrible.  It doesn’t really matter.  Ultimately all of these deals  turn out different than anyone predicts.  What counts is removing people like Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Barack Obama from positions of power.  As long as they remain in power nothing will change.  Taxes will go up, the economy will go down and they will continue to tax and spend until the inevitable financial meltdown makes it impossible to continue.

I am not a particular fan on Ron Paul, but he sure gets it right in the following speech:

I greatly fear that once again RINOs have swooped in with the best of intentions only to do nothing more than snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
