For years we’ve heard a number of our Democrat leaders and clowns from Hollywood extoll the virtues of Life In Cuba."They have universal health care and a high rate of literacy." They utterly ignore the fact that the Cuban People don’t share their views. How desperate must one get before you get on a makeshift raft hoping to reach the United States over 90 miles of open seas?
Katrina exposed the abysmal poverty of a significant number of New Orleans residents who lived under 50 years of Democrat rule. You can find a number of U.S. cities who have been controlled by Democrat Govemors, Mayors and/or City Councils that mirror the same conditions.
It seems that our elected Democrat officials, having reached elitist status themselves, feel that the common people should live in subsidized housing, crammed into major cities, take public transportation or bike to work, be satisfied with sending their children to Government schools and be thankful for the crumbs they allow us.
Once you understand the basis for their legislative goals, things like the Global Warming Hoax, refusal to drill for our own oil, phony water shortages, slavish support of school unions and “environmental activists”, a willingness to kill babies and their ravenous appetite for more and more taxes become almost frighteningly apparent.
In spite of the fact that Communism or Socialism have never worked, while Capitalism has been the engine for growth and prosperity, they’re determined to destroy that engine. One Clinton appointee told us we had no business being the only major super power. They point to universal health care in most of Europe and ignore the fact the United States makes it possible for those countries skimp on their defense budget by our treaties to (help) defend them.
We're told by the new Messiah that he’s going to change the failed policies of the past eight years. They ignore the fact that Bush inherited a recession, was immediately hit with 9/11, the war in Iraq and still saw 6 years of significant economic growth before actions by Democrats destroyed that progress.
Obama and his minions blame greedy lenders and Wall Street for our current economic plight. The truth is that Neighborhood Redevelopment Fiasco by Carter, continued by Clinton and bastardized by Democrat Legislators caused this situation. In 2001 and 12 times over his eight year term Bush pointed out that the conditions caused by Government forcing banks to provide loans to people who had absolutely no ability to repay them was causing the downfall of Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac and the worthless paper they were distributing Wall Street. The Democrats rushed to the defense of these institutions and supported the lack of regulatory oversight and the Democrat principals who ran Freddie and Fannie, blocking any remedial action.
The Democrats think Cuba is Utopia and can’t wait to duplicate those conditions in the United States!

About Me
I’ve been publishing and editing regional magazines and weekly newspapers for over 30 years and have been writing Real Estate, Sports, Political and General Interest columns in “View From The Street” for more than 40 years.
During the past several years I’ve read a number of books by Conservative, Libertarian, Republican, Independent, and even Progressive writers that I felt obligated to pass on to friends, relatives, and acquaintances. I made it a point to follow up these gifts only to learn that most of the recipients never got past the first chapter for a variety of reasons. Most often I was told that the writer failed to catch the interest of or convince the reader of the soundness of their argument and thus lost the opportunity to gain a supporter.
While many have questioned my style, I’ve consistently been able to gain the attention of any audience and most of the time get my point(s) across. I may split an infinitive, dangle a participle and frequently use a comma to allow my readers to catch a breath, but readers of my columns never had any doubt about where I stood on any subject.
I’m a fiscal and social conservative all the time, a Republican most of the time and oppose the ACLU and other “progressives” even in my sleep. I support the Melting Pot approach rather than the Diversity fad and have never learned how to stand mute in the face of idiocy.
I’ve been motivated by the number of LIES the general public has come to accept as fact, simply because they have been repeated ad nauseam by the media and others. Readers may love me or hate me, but I’ve yet to meet anyone who was indifferent to my columns.
