It is Thursday, so I’m resting from heavy lifting. Fortunately, Rick Moran isn’t. Rick may average a post a weekday, and he does at times have a bit of contempt for social conservatives, but those posts are must-reads.
This one is no different. Rick runs with a letter from a Dodge dealer getting shut off from the Dodge brand with no assistance from Dodge to relieve him of his soon-to-be-worthless inventory of cars and parts into why Obama is able to get away with what he’s doing, to an explanation of why it’s not merely an extension of what Bush did. I’ll give you a mid-post taste:
It can happen because at the moment, the opposition forces are scattered, dispirited, and engaged in a fruitless quest to determine who is a “real” conservative and who is an Obama loving, free market hating, wimpy, squishy RINO.
It can happen because we are barking up the wrong tree when we accuse the Democrats of practicing socialism. Any Chicagoan recognizes what’s going on as pure gangsterism – the application of power through the use blackmail, threats, and pure muscle and the devil take the Constitution, the rule of law, and simple fairness.
