The Emperor’s delusional rant, or not…
The occupant of the Oval Office held his post-election news conference Wednesday afternoon. He rattled off a list of items that he thinks his presidency has improved for the American people such as higher income, more jobs, and lower deficits. He is delusional to think that we are better off because of him. More people are receiving government benefits than are working; the per capita income of $28,184 has declined 6% since he took office; 38% of the workforce has given up on getting a job; and the US is carrying record debt of nearly $18 trillion. He is delusional on a lot of things, even promising executive orders when Congress won’t accept his agenda. But there may be something for which is not so delusional.
He said, “I’m hoping that the kind of attitude and approach that Mitch McConnell and John Boehner have already expressed, their desire to get things done, allows us to find some common ground….And my commitment to them — and I’ve said this when I spoke to them — is, is that anywhere where we can find common ground, I’m eager to pursue it….my interactions with Mitch McConnell, he has always been very straightforward with me. To his credit, he has never made a promise that he couldn’t deliver…he has always given me, I think, realistic assessments of what he can get through his caucus and what he can’t. And so I think we can have a productive relationship.”
These are most disturbing words. The voters tossed out Democrats because Americans were done with the Islamic-Marxist policies of this “president.” Voters overwhelmingly want socialist health care repealed; marriage restored; government spending restrained and government spying/bullying stopped. Getting along with and finding common ground with the “president” is not why the Republicans were given the majority. While the “president” may be delusional on what he believes he has accomplished to improve the “middle class,” he doesn’t seem too delusional on his assessment of McConnell and Boehner. They have six years of compromising, hardly opposing him.
Republicans should remove McConnell and Boehner from their leadership positions and begin the next Congress with leadership that reflects the will of the people. I, for one, did not cast my vote to elect leaders to find common ground with what I believe to be evil. 2 Corinthians 6:14,15 says, “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what harmony has Christ with Belial? or what part has he that believes with an infidel?” Granted, it is likely that not all who were elected are disciples of Christ, but we know by his fruits the “president’s” discipleship. We must demand and expect accountability.
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
