Losing is Not a Strategy

For a the past couple of months I have been hearing troubling comments on the political front. Unfortunately they have been coming from the Republican masses. It seems as if some people think it best if Republicans lose control of congress, one or both houses, and that this would somehow solve our problems. I am sorry but for me losing is not a strategy and the thought of just giving up congress to the likes of Nancy Pelosi and Charles Rangel does not appeal to me in fact it gives me nightmares. I know that this idea has been in response to less then a stellar performance by Conservatives in congress who have dropped the ball on certain issues. So in a sense we should punish our representatives for not representing us. I will agree that the inaction by congress on key issues makes my blood boil on occassion we must remember what the consequences would be. We would give over control to people who think we should fight terror like a law enforcement action. Democrats have already made it clear that they will get rid of the tax cuts which have been driving our economy to new heights. Democrats have also stated that they plan to have hearings on everything the Bush administration has done and will seek impeachment since they will have subpoena power. At this time in our nation's history does it seem a good thing to have congress bogged down in endless hearings? If those in power are committed to doing the right thing and standing for what they believe then we should not need to give congress to Democrats for such a reason. We as an electorate of Republicans and Conservatives need to support our party now more then ever even if that means being the lesser of two evils for the time being. The nation is in dire straits if liberals gain control of any power and that is not hyperbole it is reality.
