It used to start a few months before the election. Now it is all year round. If a politician does not get his way and if his opponent does not roll over, the ugly bully games begin. We saw this in Lake Worth during the heights election and then the elected officials on our commission voting to make our winning vote void. Then they went a step further--they voted to make a hotel district and allow 65 feet east of Federal Highway when the voters had already said NO.
People don't like to lose...I get that. But the name calling? The lies and distortions and the win at all costs mentality? The total disregard for our Constitution and for all those they serve?
Now the Democrats are calling the House, "anarchists," "arsonists," "terrorists," and "jihadists." The art of name calling is being perfected by Democrats (Saul Alinsky--they must keep his Rules for Radicals under their seats) and we all are disgusted with the entire bunch. Under the Constitution, the House is responsible for all funding. It seems as if our Constitution is just another obstacle in the path of the Obama bullies. The Republicans offered three step-wise solutions but Obama closed his ears.
The Washington Times described the war of words this way, “Democrats, who have long posed as the party of peaceniks and doves, have been anything but during the great rhetorical war of 2013. In fact, the party of George McGovern and Jimmy Carter has been mad as hell as of late, leading an offensive of bombastic insults and rhetorical bullying that has dominated the government shutdown. It’s a perfect storm, with Democrats leading the pace.”
And how ironic that "President Barack Obama contemptuously chose to allow the first federal government shutdown in almost two decades on the first day of National Bullying Prevention Month, according to a press release sent to The Daily Caller by the National Education Association (NEA)."
