The Bottom Up

Cathy Rodgers' official Republican response to the "Separater in Chief" makes Sarah Palin look like Albert Einstein in contrast. Why do the Republicans think it is necessary to borrow the language of the left and focus their remarks on "working families"? People do not aspire to remain in or enter the "middle class". Who says if I strive really hard and earn my way up, I can be "middle class"? The Democrats have so successfully poisoned the well of political rhetoric that "wealth" is demonized not only by Democrats but Republicans as well. Why is it no longer possible to campaign on the notion that our party will remove the regulatory barriers and lower the marginal Federal tax rates that will allow more Americans to be rich than ever before? We need a political party willing to educate the public that less government means more economic freedom and more freedom translates into greater wealth.
