Another way to look at it is that the handing power back and forth between parties every few years acts as a crude sort of control system. The other party takes power, and takes down or modifies the most extreme laws the previous party implemented.
It isn't efficient but somehow it seems to keep America more or less chugging along in the middle of the channel and not going into the rocks.
"We can never totally eliminate liberalism.. We need it around to remind people of what they would do to this country if they have power."
Rush Limbaugh
Obama was the poster boy for what liberalism is all about: government forcing people to buy things they may not want or can afford; promoting weirdos in dresses going into our daughters bathroom at school; government running every industry it can get it's hands on; government dependency hitting new records......
When people get pissed off at Republicans, they will foolishly vote in Democrats again. But the best argument for Republican leadership is what Democrats do when they do have power. Hopefully, the stink of the Obama administration will last for a long time, but unfortunately, people have short memories.
C'mon, man. I'm not a fan of the democrats, but quoting Rush? Really?
I know you're not stupid. I don't agree with probably 75% of the things you believe in, but you're not stupid. Quoting Rush Limbaugh? That is stupid. Don't do that.
Why, because the truth hurts?
During the time Democrats were losing power in Congress and governorships, the Democrats thought it a good idea to create a leftist Rush Limbaugh. Rush addressed this concept.
He said that the left could never create a left Rush Limbaugh. That's because the success of his show was built on Democrats. He plays what they say, he reads what they write, he posts their videos. As Rush stated, the left is the entertainment of his show. That's why the left could never duplicate it.
And just how is Rush incorrect with the quote I posted? The reason Democrats lost so much power is because they had power, and people witnessed the results and completely rejected it.
Did you ever wonder why Democrats do anything they can to stop conservative speakers? It's because they are scared of the message they might deliver. Conservatism is common sense. Conservatism is constitutional. Liberals are scared to death of common sense and the Constitution. If conservatives speak, they just may convert some young brainwashed liberal minds.
On the other hand, we have no quarrels with Democrat speech. We want people to hear what liberalism is about. It's the best advertisement for Republican leadership. We don't protest it, we don't try to stop it, we don't riot or threaten anybody over it. We want Americans to hear about liberalism. It only benefits us.
