Fighting Spin With the Truth

Obama is outfoxing the Republicans with BS and the Media is helping daily. When Obama talks about "Fair Share" the Republicans don't point out that what he's really saying is that "Whatever you've earned isn't really yours, you took it from someone you took advantage of or who just didn't happen to be as lucky as you were." As long as Republicans allow Obama to spew this kind of Bullllshitt without a rebuttal, Obama will have the upper hand. Today we have 53% of the population paying all the bills and 47% riding in the wagon for free. Under Obama's Fundamental Transformation it will soon be the other way around. Once it is it will be almost impossible to turn back. This is exactly what Thomas Jefferson warned of.

What the republicans need to point out, continuously, is that Karl Marx said exactly the same things.

Once we get to where we have 53% to 55% of the people riding in the wagon and the other 45% pulling the wagon we will be well on our way to economic collapse. No nation in history has ever been able to tax it's way to prosperity. Russia tried it all of the 20th Century only to go broke and shift toward capitalism. Once the incentive to succeed is replaced by the false pretense that the Government is "Taking Care of US" we have fallen into the illusion that there is such a thing as "Something for Nothing" which is the equivalent of Searching For the Pot Of Gold at the End of The Rainbow.

What makes you think that is not the Dem plan?

The Republicans offered a plan -- in writing -- to avoid the "fiscal cliff." It includes $800 billion in revenue increases, which demonstrates the GOP's reluctant assent to increasing the tax burdens on Americans.  The White House has rejected the proposal out of hand.

The sheer audacity of the President's last proposal shows that Obama sees this as the opening salvos of 2014.  Republicans need to do a better job explaining their position in a way that will allow them to make a strong case for themselves (and for electing more of them) in 2014.

To that end, here are...
