Governor Mitt Romney said that President Obama let the American people down in during his nomination acceptance speech. He vowed to move America past the President’s disappointments. Do you really want to know who let America down? Ask Congress, ask the Senate, and ask the Ultra-Conservative strategists who met the night of the President’s inauguration that plotted ways to make this a one-term president who failed. We'll also disrespect him along the way. They decided that they would attack in several areas to promote doubt and fear in the American people. Ask Robert Draper who wrote “Do Not Ask What Good We Do: Inside the US House of Representatives.” He said the following people attended a meeting in the Caucus Room in DC: Republican Reps. Eric Cantor (Va. ), Kevin McCarthy (Calif. ), Paul Ryan (Wis. ), Pete Sessions (Texas ), Jeb Hensarling (Texas ), Pete Hoekstra (Mich. ) and Dan Lungren (Calif. ), along with Republican Sens. Jim DeMint (S.C.), Jon Kyl (Ariz. ), Tom Coburn (Okla. ), John Ensign (Nev. ) and Bob Corker (Tenn. ). The non-lawmakers present included Newt Gingrich, several years removed from his presidential campaign, and Frank Luntz, the long-time Republican wordsmith. Notably absent were Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) - who, Draper writes, had an acrimonious relationship with Luntz. Recognize any of these pyramids of righteousness? These guys are more patriotic than most and more Christian than all. How hypocritical can these people be? They thrived on the lie that the President is a Muslim but don’t mention that Mitt is a Mormon. That’s literally been kept out of the news. It’s better to just lie out right and see how many people will believe it. If necessary, apologize later. Somebody needs to tell the absolute truth! If you don’t believe me, disagree. McConnell and Boehner might not have been there, but I’m sure that they got the message. McConnell has said that he will do his best to make this a one-term president. Rush Limbaugh said, “I hope Obama fails.” And Rush used his radio show to prove it, too. Now the Governor, the Republican Presidential Nominee, wants America to succeed. Reaganesques? Reagan wouldn't be accepted by his own part the way they moved to the extreme right. No compromising and no giving in to the opposition. I don’t know if any of you have ever read my blogs or will ever read them. I’ve been a moderate over 40 years and don’t care if you call me a RINO. I do know who I am and the challenges that I face. I have been called worse names but I’ve learned that people when they are angry and afraid they will strike out. The regrets might come later. There are those that enjoys feeding them that fear. These are the people that are content with destruction and division. I’m amazed at the path our country has taken since a Black President took the helm. Well, if they turned on President Bush, what would you expect?
Sometimes, we tend to find excuses for the things that don't work out for us. We tend to blame others instead of taking responsibility for our actions, which only elevates the excuses. This behavior also applies to standing up for what is right. We often remain silent and wait for someone else to take the initiative instead of holding ourselves accountable. "What's your excuse, now?" is about empowering ourselves to make choices that will help us feel comfortable and confident in our skin.
