The shut up, you're racist left vs. common sense America

Mark Davis: The dubious logic linking Tea Parties to racism

***

What the Obama people would like to do is pick out of 2,700 pages (of the health care law) nine pages that are good and run around the country asking, "Why do you want to repeal these nine pages?" What we need to do is move above health care to the totality of America's future.

Robert Samuelson wrote about this in the Washington Post. He said that Obama passing health care is like a family facing bankruptcy going on an around-the-world vacation. He said it is an act of total irresponsibility. It's the totality of the threat from the secular-socialist machine; the threat it has for the fiscal collapse of the country, the threat it has to burden young people with a lifetime of paying taxes to payoff Chinese and Saudi bondholders. We're working on numbers now to figure out how much a 20-year-old will have to pay in just interest on the debt vs. how much they will pay for national security in their lifetime.

Obama represents the greatest transfer of wealth from the young to the old in American history. It's grotesque. We used to pay off the mortgage and give the kids the farm; now we're selling the farm and giving kids the mortgage. It's exactly the opposite of sound and healthy policy. So you want to have this larger question: "Which kind of America do you want?"
