Donald Trump: Continues to Shame Republicans

Obama gave a typical Obama speech on the budget today, saying nothing new in his role as Liar-inChief. The despicable Associated Press (featured on Yahooo "News') said that Obama proposed to "cut spending" and raise taxes on the wealthy. Wrong. That is a LIE (BOYCOTT YAHOO). Sure, Obama SAID he wanted to "cut spending", as he has said all along, while spending more than any other President in American history. But he did NOT "propose" any NET "spending cuts" (meaning, in any honest world, tghat the government spends LESS, and not simply less than OBAMA would have spent,, except for this deficti--spending MORE, in other words). Obama repeated the LIE (by any objective standards) that the "wealthy" are payhing less taxes now than at any time in the previous 50 years--a tortured assertion based on tax COLLECTIONS rather than TAX RATES. Nope. It is a LIE by our Liar-in-Chief. Notice that it is the CONSERVATIVE assertion (corret) that tax collections have little to do with tax RATES. Is Obama agreeing with us that higher tax rates do not increase tax revenues? Tax rates are clearly higher, for higher income people, than they were under Reagan--whose tax cuts caused an INCREASE in tax revenues. What does this have to do with Donald Trump? Well, you will notice that Repubicans are suddenly willing to criticize OBAMA--something they have been unwilling to do. Republicans rightlyl exocriated this speech as a PARTISAN campaign speech rather than a serioujs attempt to address spending and the deficit. No, Repubicans have NOT generallly done that in the past. Suddenly, Repubicans are willing to mention Obama by name, and unfavorably. Why? I give some of the credit to Donald Trump. No, I have not changed my mind about agreeing with Bill Cosby (article some days ago). Donald Trump is "full of it", and realy a joke as far as a potential President is concerned. But he is a joke WITHOUT FEAR. He has shown Repubicans that you can take on BOTH Obama and the mainstream media, and WIN. Trump is suddenly actually LEADING in the polls (meaningless as that is) for the Republican nominatioin. There is only one reason for that: People believe Trump is willing to actually call a "spade a spade" (not a racial reference)--to say what he means in clear language--rather than talk around things vaguely, as Republicans have STILL been doing over the past two years. (By the way, do you not find it interesting that so many on the left now agree with me that Cosby is a HERO, when they have--many of them--previouisly criticized Cosby forf daring to say that African-Americans need to accept much more personal responsibility, rather than have excuses made for them by all of theese "leftists" who simply want to treat them as victims. As this blog has proven time and time again, leftists, including the mainstream media, are the worst hypocrites to ever walk the Earth, on two legs or four.) Examle on Trump. Earlier this week, Trump said OBAMA was repsonsible for high oil prices. Have you heard Repubicans saying that? The reason Pawlenty is getting no tracton, and Romney is langushing, is that they have SAID NOTHING but the usual "political speak". Romney is holding near the top, but mainly because of last election. Pawlenty is polling at 3% (meaningless, again, as present polls--or any polls--are). Congrast that with Trump, who is quoted as flat out saying--correctly--that Obama is reponsible for present high gasoline and oil prices. Yes, oil and gasoline are further examples of Obama as Liar-in-Chief. His Middle East policy is a shamb les of weakness and lack of leadership. But that is not even the main problem. Obama, in his role as chief liar, actually took CREDIT for oil production in the United States being higher last year. EVERYONE (and I mean everyone) knows that this was DESPITE Obama. Obama has SHUT DOWN drilling tin the Gulf of Mexico, despite court orders that he acted improperly. Obama has done basically everything he can to STOP oil drilling in this country, and EVERYONE agrees that oil production is now FALLING in this country. The (small) rise last year was because of CLINTON and BUSH drilling permits. It is OBAMA--remember, he is Liar-in-Chif--who said in his election campaign that oil drilling toook at least 5 years to produce resultes. That is somewhat of a lie in itself, but it is true enough that the Obama OIL DRILLING POLICIES are just now beginning to take effect to REDUCE oil production in this country. Further, of course, Obama WANTS higher oil prices, since that is the only way "alternative energy" will ever make any "progress". Enough. The point here is that TRUMP SAID IT, while Repubilcans generally would not. Yes, Republicans might engage in "political speak" saying that Obama is hurting jobs by not drilling, and hurting our oil production. But Republicans simply will not do what OBAMA and the Democrats are willing to do (as shown by Obama's speech tonight): BLAME Obama directly for things like rising oil and gasoline prices. Does the relatively aggresive Republican response today to Obama's speech indicate that they are finally getting the point? Maybe. We will seee. But I give credit where credit is due, and Donald Trump deserves some of the credit if Repubican POLIATICIANS suddenly grow a SPINE. Will they suddenly start openly saying how ridiculous it is to fund Planned Parenthood with taxpayer dollars, instead of vaguely talking around the issue? Don't hold your breath. But they should. And the people, including me, will PUNISH them if they don't. It is not enough to simplly keep tryong to devise "talking points" that say you don't want to fund Planned Parenthood (only used as an EXAMPLE here), without ATTACKING the other side vigorously on the issue. It is sad, ut to be expected, that Trump--a political novice--has already learned the lesson that the best defense is a good offense. P.S. No proofreading or spell checking, as usual (bad eyesight).
