He sold out! We elected him and he sold out! They’re all the same! Promises, promises! You elect them and they weasel out of their promises!

-Sally Brown to Linus VanPelt (from: “You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown”)

Hopefully the new members that we have just elected to Congress do not weasel out of their promises. Already I hear calls for compromise from both sides of the aisle… That was not the message the voters were sending!

Much like the calls of the American people during the Newt Gingrich led Republican Revolution, the voters want Congress to be more fiscally responsible with their money. The people want elected officials that actually listen to what they have to say on the issues of the day and not put their own agenda above the peoples.

This has been the fundamental problem with the Obama administration… They have not listened to the voice of the people, but instead ramrodded their agenda down our throats and bloated the budget far beyond what any other President has done.

The American people are tired of bailouts, handouts and the creation of hyper-expensive government programs. It has been proven over time that the quickest way out of a recession is through tax cuts from both parties. John Kennedy cut taxes to improve the economy in the 1960′s and Ronald Reagan did it again in the 1980′s, which led to the greatest economic growth that this country has ever had.

Many people laud Franklin Roosevelt as a savior from the Great Depression, but the truth is that his policies, much like Obama’s, did not create any meaningful jobs. The welfare system he created did not do one thing to get this country out of the depression. Only when we entered World War II did the economy begin to improve with the numerous manufacturing  jobs that were created by the demands of our rapidly expanding military.

History has shown us that Herbert Hoover (who gets much of the blame for the Great Depression) was on the right track with the economy when he cut taxes. If his policies had been continued for few more years, we may have never even have had this period called “the Great Depression”, but instead it would have been a side note in the history books about the collapse of the stock market.

One thing that the Republican party needs to be wary of is making the same mistakes that were made when they took over Congress while Roosevelt was in power. Just because the President was elected with a wide majority of the vote (Roosevelt, Obama) does not mean that you need to rubber stamp their spending proposals to stimulate the economy. If its bad policy, you must fight it. Make a stand. Do what the people elected you to do.

Return money back to the people in the form of tax cuts. Give incentives to small businesses (after all, they are the ones who create most of the jobs in this and every other free country). Throwing money at government projects to bring an economy out of recession is a prescription for disaster.

The Barrack Obama, Lyndon Johnson, Franklin Roosevelt and George W. Bush (to a lesser extent) policies of using the Federal government to spend us out of the recession will not work! Until businesses begin to create jobs, we will continue to be mired in this slump…

History is on the side of tax cuts for the people and incentives to small businesses. Will we learn from history and move forward or choose the Socialist stylings of some of our predecessors and let this recession drag on for many years to come?

I haven’t posted any California results yet, so I thought I’d do a quick post and throw some of those out there to you!

California U.S. Senate – Some have already called this one for Boxer based on exit polling, but at this point its just too close to call with only 17K votes separating the top two and 28% of the precincts reporting…

I guess the voters in California have short memory when it comes to their politicians and choose not to recall the mess that Jerry Brown had the state in the last time he was governor… but then many of these voters were in diapers or had yet to be born the last time he held that office…

Back after a much needed infusion of nutrition to report more election night 2010 results. Thus far the Republicans have made huge gains and will take over control of the U.S. House of Representatives, but will they grab the Senate majority as well? Stay tuned to find out more!
