Why Obamacare Ruling Is Good For Tea Party
The TEA party movement was born of the threat Obamacare posed to us.
It will send the enthusiasm on our side sky high. It will do very little
to excite the Left – hey, they won, didn’t they?
The Supreme Court’s Obamacare ruling
has placed the weight of pulling America’s wagon on middle class
people. In the short run, Democrats will be delirious, and their
cheerleaders in the media will be insufferable – in the short run. They
will all act as if they have forgotten what happened in the elections of
2010 – but we will remind them in November.
In 2010, when Obamacare was originally passed with no Senate votes
from Republicans, it became the driving force that propelled millions of
Americas to stand and fight. We converged on Washington from all over
the country demanding that something be done “to fix this.” When it
became clear that the way to “fix it” was to vote out the Democrats and
vote in a conservative majority in the House and Senate, we rolled up
our sleeves and, with rarely seen levels of enthusiasm, marched to the
polls. That was BEFORE Obamacare was poured into concrete by Justice
Roberts. That was before the absolute urgency of voting out every
Democrat in the House and the Senate was staring us in the face.
This will do very little to energize the Left – Democrats will SAY we
must elect Democrats to preserve what we have, but saving something
that IS won’t fire up voters like changing something that has BECOME.
After a few weeks when the decision has been fully understood, the
power of America’s TEA party movement will emerge. There will be
rallies, and the spirit of 2010 will fill the air. Those who would say
“The TEA party movement is dead” will do so at their own political
peril.
This decision keeps the assaults on religious freedoms in place. Now, which side will THAT fire up?
disappointment to MOTIVATE the masses....especially since 66% of the American People didn't want this crap.....do not want it today....and will be motivated to REPEAL it in the
near future. BOOM>..love this post.!
The 'ideas' of the TEA party movement are based not necessarily in a 'party' as much as they are individual beliefs. Examples are;
Do you support the idea of a flat tax system,that removes the power of Congress to grant any person or intity a tax favor not enjoyed by all. In other words, taxtion will be direct. actual taxes, rates must be decided with bi-partisan support after the election. Result?
Everyone pays something however small that may be, but there won't be anymore 'GE's'
making 5 Billon in profit and paying nothing.
Do you believe the power and reach of the federal government must be curtailed? It's size should be significantly reduced and resouces used under each state's control, not the federal government's?
Do you believe our country must start living within a sustainable level of spending or do you believe we can continue deficit spending?
There are many others. Personaly I believe that most Americans, TEA party faithful or independent there is a majority who answered yes to at least two of those questions.
So I could care less of you don't happen to like the TEA party or whatever, just be true to your 'own ' beliefs and support candidates that support them.
To which I respond:
Losing the increase in Medicaid coverage was a big loss for The Left, since the poor is supposedly their constituency. Actually, the Republicans have taken good care of them and earned a RINO or even liberal label as a result, yet without getting much credit politically...more like condemnation from The Right.
What will count heavily is if there is a new law to address a Medicaid deal separately; one that is workable for the States, who administer the program.
