The Heart of a Democrat-Check Out :50-:60
I do NOT think it was a Freudian slip. I think it is at the heart of the Democrat Party.

I do NOT think it was a Freudian slip. I think it is at the heart of the Democrat Party.
Where I give you my slightly quirky opinion, and you can give me yours, as long as you're man or woman enough to be civil and control your language.

About Me
- Joe
- I was born in Miami, Florida, the son of an Air Force officer, traveled the world, was saved at age 17, and have served the Lord since. That's me on the left and my lovely wife, Bonnie...the pretty one...on the right.
There Are But A Few Rules To Follow
1. Absolutely no foul language (including the use of asterisks). If you are not man or woman enough to control your language, you are not welcome here...go somewhere else.
2. I am not looking for strings of commenters arguing with each other, so confine your comments to the topic at hand and address your comments to me, unless you can be exceptionally gracious and polite.
3. Since this is my blog, I am the sole arbiter of what can be placed on this blog. My decisions are final and without recourse. All anonymous comments, unsigned, will be deleted, as will ad hominem attacks against me or others.
4. Within the scope of those rules, you may feel free to have fun here (I sure will). Sarcasm, wit, half-wit, nit-wit, parody, satire, puns (especially puns), etc. are encouraged.
FOUR PRINCIPLES THAT DEFINE TRUE CONSERVATISM:
1. Respect for The Constitution
2. Respect for Life
3. The Smallest Possible Government
4. Individual Responsibility
This blog is about my philosophy of government, which is a very conservative philosophy.
You are not required to agree with me (although you would be better off if you did).
I am biased toward conservatism, and make no apologies for that.
Freedom means not being controlled by the government, that being the very reason we declared our independence from Great Britain.

Government's job is not to provide things for people, but to provide the opportunity for people to persue the things they want via the vehicles of freedom and responsibility.

WHY I CALL HIM "PRESIDENT BO"
I call him "President" out of respect for the office. I call him "BO" (as in Body Odor) because his agenda stinks.
I also refer to him as our "Acting President."

Yup, give everyone a government job.
Brilliant.
I can do even better than that, Joe. Let's make everyone millionaires. And give everybody a beach house in Boca Raton.
And then there will be no crime, since millionaires living in beach houses don't commit crimes.
I think I should get a Nobel Peace Prize for this brilliance, Joe, will you nominate me?
You have clearly lost your ability to detect sarcasm.
He was taking a swipe at his Republican opponents.
http://dailycaller.com/2014/05/21/dem-congressman-weve-proved-that-communism-works/
The far right wackos are targeting a Cuban Democrat in Florida and trying to catch him in some manufactured "James O'Keefe" style gotcha video.
Grow up! The Democrats are trying to move this country into the 21st Century and solve real problems.
We don't have time for your nonsense.
Fredd: Nahh. No Peace Prize. You forgot to get me my BMW.
XO: You just proved my point.
Joe - Only in the Conservative Fact Vacuum is it possible to prove someone is right by proving that they are wrong.
Nice try.
Bout to XO in the first on a knockout.
XO: You need to read actual words. I understand that he was making a feeble attempt at sarcasm. I understand that he thought he was "being funny."
What I said was not that HE believed Communism works (which he might or might not), but that liberals, especially the leftists like yourself and Ducky, think it works, even when you call it something else.
I believe, perhaps unknowingly, he hit on the heart of the Democrat Party.
The idea that the people obey the government, have little or no say in the decisions the feds make and must be prevented from attacking the government at ALL costs is the essence of totalitarianism.
The idea that the fed runs the people, instead of the other way around, is a Communistic, or at least a socialistic, concept.
We have representatives who do not represent, a president who rules by fiat, instead of presiding, and a court that supports both of them.
And they think they are making it work.
Joe - "We have representatives who do not represent, a president who rules by fiat, instead of presiding, and a court that supports both of them."
No. Our representatives ARE representing.
As you always so eager to point out, this ain't a Democracy. It's a Constitutional Republic.
You elect the Representatives that you trust and feel will govern according to your values and you send them off to the Senate, The House of Representatives or the Executive Office.
For the rest of their term, they do as they please. If you don't like it, you get to vote for someone else when their term is over.
So they are representing according to how our government is structured.
The President is not "ruling by fiat" and he is under no Constitutional restriction to merely "preside". The Vice President "presides" over the Senate and The Speaker of the House "presides" over the House.
The Presidency of the United States is not a passive role of someone sitting in a funny shaped office waiting to either sign of veto legislation.
The Representatives in the House represent the people of the Congressional District in their state. A very small, narrow and intensively gerrymandered constituency.
The Senators, 2 from each state, both represent ALL of the people in their state. Their are no Senatorial Districts. But they still represent a fraction of the citizens of the United States.
The President, is elected by ALL of the people in ALL of the Congressional Districts and ALL of the States and represents ALL of the people.
[yeah, yeah, I know, Electoral College, don't get me started on that. Gore beat Bush! You don't want to go there]
Th mandate and charter of the President of the United States is to always represent and do what is best for ALL of the people.
The Supreme Court is the referee. The House and the Senate can pass any law they can muster the votes for. But the SCOTUS gets to decide whether the law is Constitutional and they have the power to strike it down. And so they should.
The President can issue any Executive Order that falls within his sphere of authority as our Chief Executive and Commander in Chief. But the SCOTUS gets to decide whether his orders and directives are Constitutional. And so they should.
As we in the computer industry are prone to say, "the system is working as designed".
