Rachel Maddow is back in the conservative spotlight and being criticized for a comment she made about the incoming Republican takeover of the House.  “Watch what the Republics do, not what they say.” she said of the Republicans and their claim to be the new party of fiscal responsibility.  (Not something aptly demonstrated in the past mind you)!

Several things come to mind.  The first of which; she is right and conservatives rebutting such a comment are doing so out of closed minded and stubborn ignorance.  What we know about government and any political orientation associated with it, is that the rhetoric far exceeds the impact of any truths stemming from it.  Both Democratic and Republican administrations are blatantly guilty of this.  Suddenly, a liberal news personality calls it correctly and conservatives want to have beef with it.  Is the beef because conservatives want to “hear” rhetoric from DC that is in line with their values… ONLY?  Is it that conservatives feel threatened by being called out by an expectation the Republicans actually deliver on their spoken intent?

We can split hairs on this if we want.  Should we overlook it because it is coming from a liberal?  Absolutely not!  It was the conservative vote that delivered these Republicans to office and it should be the conservatives who hold the Republican’s feet to the fire in undoing the Obama regime’s internal destruction of America.

What Americans do not understand is that America was designed in a manner that bestowed upon the people the power to overthrow the government and make it into a government of their choosing.  That is what Obama represents; an overthrow of Americanism.  Under our constitution, the people have the power of ultimate rule.  This where the Modern Liberal has found control of America with the intent to deliver America to a Europeanized Union of States. 

The steps to returning America to her former self have been taken, but are meaningless without the elected Republicans making good on why they were elected.  It is not a matter of “watching what the Republicans do,” it is a matter of forcing the Republicans to do what is right for America.  Accountability is a self expectation of any good conservative in America and accountability MUST be demanded from Washington.

We have watched for two years how the Obama administration has stated one thing and done the complete opposite in order to advance their own agenda over the  interests of the people.  We have listened to how health care would not entail a mandate and watched a coup against the constitution delivered by a lying US President who used political corruption to pass a bill against his own personal promises to an entire nation.  We have listened to how a stimulus would save America from her economic woes and watched the delivery of fiscal policy that was so large it not only indebted the current generations, but the forth coming generation because the bill itself was delivered in such a manner that Obama’s own party was denied the opportunity even read.  We have listened to a US President standing in front of our very constitution and declare how he would seek means to circumvent it and now watch as the promise to undermine the constitution comes to fruition.  What Rachel Maddow is saying is that we cannot allow the Republicans to be anything like these Democrats in office today!  How a person could contest such a notion is beyond me.

Granted, some are going to claim that these assertions are meaningless because of Rachel Maddow herself.  But when you stop to think about it, it was Rachel that broke the story on how Obama wanted to circumvent the constitution while having the gull to announce as much while standing directly in front of it; almost as if he were metaphorically urinating on it.  More objectivity exists with her than people give credit for.  Is she slanted?  Of course, but name any pundit from a given side that is not.  In as much, there are times when a criticism holds truth when you are willing, confident, secure and strong enough to listen to it. 

Americanism is in decline because the American citizen has grossly taken America and the freedom she represents for granted.  Through our passive citizenry we have yielded the helm of freedom to the progressive, socialist inclined, liberal anti-American. 

Lost is the freedom of the individual pursuit of happiness as it has fallen to a false sense of entitlement and economic enslavement by a government seeking absolute control under the guise of the absolution of the individual. 

This wrong can be righted, but only if we as a people hold to account those whom we have elected to do so.  Where Rachel Maddow is wrong is that it is not a matter of “watching;” it is a matter of insisting upon true and wholesome conservatives values as expressed with the compassion for our fellow man.

Hello, my friend...Bravo...Your words ring so very true...The truth is that both those on the right and the left know exactly what actions (verses words) are needed to take our nation in the right (correct) direction...If the conservative movement represented by the 2010 mid-term election results acts in the manner that they spoke in order to get elected, we will see improvement. If not, we will just see more declination of what is already a shell of what America once was...vic...

Incredibly well written!

You have a very good point. Both sides of the isle have a lot to be desired when it comes to replacing the rhetoric with action and exchanging the lies for honest intent. We have lost control of a government that is now fully runaway and out of control. If the Republicans are going to apply the brakes, they will hae to do it with far more action and far less running of their over used mouths.
