WOLF: Desperate Democrats reek of fear
Winning campaigns don’t behave like this
In
2006, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez stood before the United Nations
and insulted our president: “The devil came here yesterday,” Mr. Chavez
said of President George W. Bush, “and it smells of sulfur still today.”
Now, in 2012, the Democrats may not smell sulfur exactly, but if you
follow their desperate actions, you certainly can smell their fear.
Here’s
why: Yet another so-called “Recovery Summer” has come and nearly gone
and Americans are still reeling from the failures of Obamanomics. It’s
been a full year since Treasury Secretary and admitted tax cheat Timothy
F. Geithner announced, “Welcome to the recovery.” Recovery? The
gross-domestic-product growth rate slowed to 1.5 percent. The
unemployment rate ticked up to 8.3 percent. Twenty-three million
Americans are unemployed. A nearly $16 trillion debt looms large. A
record 45 million Americans are on food stamps. More than 100 million
are on some form of welfare. America’s credit rating has been
downgraded.
