Turning America in the right direction

The turnaround begins in just a couple of weeks, when a new more conservative, more principled Congress is elected. It won’t be a perfect solution or complete victory; President Obama and his czars will still be running the executive branch and Democrats will still have much authority in the Senate. They’ll conspire to keep the healthcare monstrosity on the backs of the American people and small business owners, and continue their redistributionist efforts to raise taxes and spend taxpayers’ money and increase government control. But thanks in large measure to the Tea Party and many independents, one thing will be different. The Republicans who go to Washington will have a new sense of purpose, a new energy and resolve, and most important, a new commitment to common sense Jeffersonian conservative constitutional principles.  The beginning of the American comeback is only a few weeks away…
