Spoils of War
Elections have consequences. One of those consequences is the winner gets to run things. The Obama famously said last week, “I won.”
While he takes that to mean that all political opposition must immediately halt in the presence of his excellency, there are some practical results of winning the presidency as well as both houses of Congress.
Namely, the right to reward friends and supporters with federal largess.
Congress’ whopping spending spree, erroneously named a “stimulus” bill, includes a giant cash infusion for the crooks at Acorn. Yea, Acorn. You know the ones, who along with the Democrats laid the foundation for, caused and exacerbated the housing bust/credit bust/U.S. economy bust.
Acorn is also the prime agent behind vote fraud writ large across the land.
For their help in getting Democrats elected, the congressional pork bill offers $4.19 billion in “neighborhood stabilization” cash.
As Michelle Malkin so aptly puts it:
As I’ve reported previously, the Generational Theft Act and other Democrat spending boondoggles will serve as giant slush funds for far Left non-profits. Republicans failed to do anything to stop it when they held the White House.
To the victors go the spoils. Stolen from the pockets of your children and grandchildren.
Don’t expect much of a fight from the Republicans. They’ve signalled a willingness to go along with the rape of the American taxpayer.
