Terror Alert Blue

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Those words drip like acid from my lips on the day after the election disaster. If you could not tell by my words I am slightly disappointed by the results of yesterday's election. It looked more and more that Republicans would lose the House of Representatives but I did not think it was possible to lose both chambers of congress. So what now? Liberals and disgusted so-called Republicans have given the reins of congress to people who ran on a platform of no platform. Democrats were able to win without proposing ideas and instead ran as the anti-Republican party. We will now see whether Democrats implement the liberal ideas they espoused in past months. Will we see an immediate withdrawal in Iraq, a move to national healthcare, and higher taxes? We do not know the answer now but we will as Democrats take control in the coming months. Perhaps Democrats will hold off on major issue changes in an attempt to moderate themselves and protect presidential hopes for 2008. Whatever course Democrats take it will be wrong. Liberals have taken over the Democratic party and have a radicalized view of where to take the country. I say this as an unabashed Conservative who vehemently opposes the liberal agenda. I would be interested to know the impact of Republicans who refused to vote or voted for Democrats as a way to punish Republicans. In a period of time when so much is at stake the country is awash in blue and I hope we are able to come through this better and more energized as Conservatives. Otherwise the defectors of the red state nation we have to live with the results. I leave you with this it is easy to placate citizens with promises of government gifts and entitlements but it is the principled few who realize the folly of such actions.
