Friends, in case you've missed it, the Left is fuming. That's because one of their own, Joe Machin of West Virginia, has finally announced his opposition to the "Build Back Better Bill", also known as the reconciliation bill, which was supposed to found several new social programs and elicit so much enthusiasm and gratitude from voters that the Dems would cruise to victory in 2022. Well, so much for that! Progressives are irked, to say the least. They voted for an infrastructure bill, which most of them regarded as a gift to Mitch McConnell, on the theory that in return they would get a massive expansion of government social programs via the BBB bill. Turns out they got zip. Kudos to Joe Manchin, therefore, for derailing the signature legislation that was supposed to create Joe Biden's "legacy", such as it is (or would have been). Kudos to Manchin, more importantly, for being a brake on the Dems' spendthrift madness. America owes you big-time, Joe!
In other news, here's a great article by a friend of mine about the importance of crime in the upcoming election cycle. The Dems ignore the public's fears re: physical security at their peril!

Dr. Waddy from Jack: Again, hooooray for Senator Manchin, a man of consummate courage . Let all of us of conservative conviction MAKE HASTE to express directly to him, on easily accessible online connections to him, our gratitude to him! Let us NOT, any of us, fail in this. Give him the support he needs! He is a hero!
ReplyDeleteDr.Waddy from Jack: And thank you West Virginia, for your perceptive choice of a such a principled man as a Senator!
ReplyDeleteHear hear! We need to express our gratitude, and make it clear to Joe Manchin that he's always welcome in the GOP.
ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy from Jack: I just sent him a handwritten thank you and a wish nevertheless for a Merry Christmas the left will hasten to deny him and his family. I understand that those in Congress especially value handwritten comments. Please, everyone, let him hear from you! He's fighting our fight from a very lonely position unless he hears from ALL of us in the real America. Hope he comes "in from the cold " soon and joins us.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Jack! That is exactly the kind of legwork that will win the day and save America.
