Voice of the People - February 4, 2009

Are Americans souring on the Democrats?

As Democrats control the House, the Senate and the presidency, it is indeed humorous to see Curtis Lemay calling for more cheese for his whine.

President Barack Obama's Lincoln-inspired "Team of Rivals" is descending into a Grant-inspired "Team of Rascals." At a cabinet meeting, we will see some who walk in, some who slither in and some who have to ooze through.

Perhaps this would be of more interest to our Democratic friends. We now have a liberal ecological group calling for a limit on children being born in America to two per family so as to not further damage the ecology. The Democratic Party is for abortion on demand and Speaker Nancy Pelosi wants the stimulus package to contain millions to buy condoms because the cost of public assistance is getting too high.

Connect the dots. And you thought only a Nazi could come up with this.

The stimulus plan is nothing more than a pork pie. And the latest Gallup poll says over 50 percent of the people want a fork stuck in the pie because it's done.
