I’ve campaigned for smaller government since 1966 and have been losing – thanks largely to the Roosevelt-Rockefeller-Nixon-Bush-Gingrich Republican party which is completely in cahoots with ENLARGING the Welfare-Warfare state.

Given a choice of these two scenarios:

SCENARIO A: “Progressive” Obama beats Republican nominee Ron Paul in 2012 by 55% to 45%

– OR –

SCENARIO B” “Progressive” Gingrich beats Obama in 2012 by 50.1% to 49.9%

Smaller government can eventually win out later rather never under scenario A so I would prefer it. Scenario B merely rearranges the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Gary Johnson – somewhat feckless – but if he wishes to offer an alternative for me to vote for instead of the two “Progressives” with a Libertarian bid – go for it, Gary.

As for Newt – he is an “intellectual” only in comparison to Palin, Cain, and a troop of baboons. Since he talks out of both sides of his mouth, he inevitably says the right thing half the time – but talk, Newt style, is cheap.

Right or wrong at least Newt knows who Teddy Roosevelt was. All BHO knows is what somebody else loaded into his teleprompter. He probably thought Teddy was a ball player for the New York Giants in the early days of the league.

On the one hand we have Newt Gingrich claiming to be a Teddy Roosevelt (TR) Republican and on the ohter Obama saying he is carrying the TR mantle. The
progressives, TR, Wilson, and FDR haven’t been particularly good for the American Constitutionual form of government.

We also have a convergence in the financial world. The economies of Europe and the US are in real trouble. We seem to be throwing phony moeny to Europe, which we don’t have to paypff debts that they don’t have the money to pay.

And on third front there seems to a convengence in the Arab Spring reuslting in 7th century leadership that should be an anathama to Western Goverments. And yet due to our political correctness we can no longer see the difference between mobs in the street and true yearnings for freedom.

Nothing seems to make much sense. Right is wrong and wrong is right. I thought utopianism went down the toilet of histroy with the fall of the Soviet Union but here we are again. The is an old Russian saying that translates something like today’s trajedies are tomorrow’s comedies. If this saying has any grain of truth there should be lots of comedy sometime in the future.
