The fiscal cliff is looming, at least that is what the Media keeps touting these days, and why is it looming? Because those dastardly Republicans won’t compromise with the president by throwing all of their pledges, promises and morals out the window by giving the President exactly what he wants with no argument or debate in the process. Well, I hate to break it to the major news outlets, but that isn’t how the system is supposed to work. Just because Obama won the election doesn’t make him the end all, be all, when it comes to how things are going to work in DC. Obama still has to work with Congress if he actually wants to achieve anything and, as loth as he is to do it, he has to reach across the aisle and start working with Congressional Republicans. If he refuses, as he has the last couple of years, then nothing will get done and we all will suffer for one man’s stubbornness and stupidity. Don’t let the Media fool you into thinking that this is all because of the Republicans, they have been trying repeatedly to get things done and have been stonewalled by this administration and the Senate Democrats.
And as for the Congressional Republican… I know that no matter how this whole fiscal cliff thing plays out you are going to look like the bad guys. This is due to a complacent Media that refuses to do their job and report the truth; instead, they choose to worship at the feet of the idol of Obama. Get over it and do your jobs anyway. We put you in office to prevent Obama and his socialist agenda from destroying the foundation of this great nation, not to turn tail and cower because you are afraid of looking bad. If you give in and help Obama destroy this nation, you will be replaced in the next election.
If all the conservatives in this nation (and conservatives still are the majority) have to go Third Party in order to get people in DC who will stand up for conservative ideals and not cave to political pressure just because another party controls two of the three branches. I know that this would take a while to accomplish but eventually, if the Republicans don’t wise up, they will find themselves completely out of power and a new party with have taken its place. So please, Republicans, grow a backbone and stand strong. If you don’t, we all lose.
