THE PARTY OF “HELL NO” AND WE DON’T APOLOGIZE!

Sarah Palin’s latest attempt to resurrect the Republican Party was sprinkled with the most unpatriotic advice one could find from someone who drapes themselves in the United States uniform and the flag.

First, the Party of “HELL, NO!” I’m assuming besides saying “hell no” to health care reform, which thank goodness is now law, that they will say “hell no” to financial regulatory reform, and “hell no” to attempting to stimulate the economy with more job creation legislation like tax cuts to same businesses for hiring out of work workers, and additional investments in our infrastructure ripe with withering roads, bridges, schools, libraries, state and local buildings. I’m assuming they will be saying “hell no” to retrofitting all government owned buildings with energy efficient devices that might lower our need for Middle East oil and create hundreds of thousands of new jobs. They will surely be saying “hell no” to tax incentives to develop solar, wind and new battery technology for additional sources of energy. They weren’t satisfied with being just the party of NO…Bobby Jindal, Sarah Palin, and John McCain (most surprising of all) want to be the party of “Hell No!” Their words…not mine!

Then the next little gem out of, the “half term” governor of Alaska, Sarah Pallin’s mouth was we’re American’s…we don’t apologize. All of you and any of your friends who happen to read this blog need to ask yourselves…is that what your families taught you…never apologize? Did your mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, aunts and uncles really tell you never to apologize? Probably not! Most of use grew up in families that when we misbehaved our mother’s marched us over to the offended party with our ear lobes in her hand while she waited and we told the person we wronged that we “APOLOGIZED” for what we’ve done. It’s an act of humility. And Sarah, the mental midget that she is, needs to explain to us why this is not an American value. It certainly makes me wonder exactly what kind of a “Christian” household Sarah grew up in and now lauds…refuses to apologize. Since when did arrogance become a virtue?

The Party of “Hell No” is not the country of “old fashioned” values they purport to be. When I was young my parents taught me that apologizing was the “right” thing to do. But, apparently today…it’s just the “left” thing to do!

A final dig at the Alaskan Governor who’s most well known characteristic is that she is a quitter…being a half term Governor as her crowning moment. She has described her most fond motto as “don’t retreat…RELOAD!” But, what really qualifies her as dumb is that she insists even as she expels this motto that it’s not a call to violence. YES IT IS! Words matter Sarah! You are certainly dumb enough to believe that “reload” is just innocuous…but, it’s not Sarah. There are people dumb enough to hang on your every word who believe it is just a demonstration of their second amendment rights to bring a loaded weapon to a political event attended by the President of the United States looking for a chance to fire that weapon. You’ve instructed them to reload. And, to think these people are the bastions of Christianity (at least as they see it). If you really want a biblical example you might try “turn the other cheek” rather that “reload.”

If you really want to see a totalitarian government, just elect the Tea Party to power. These people don’t believe in liberty or democracy…they want to tell you what you can and can’t do. And, speaking of death panels…if you can’t afford to pay for health benefits you will die under their heavy hand.
