J. Wellington Wimpy, for those who are not familiar with him, is a cartoon character from the old Popeye cartoons.   In 1932, the last time we were given a depression by the Party of Treason, Wimpy was in a Popeye cartoon and uttered the famous line, “I will gladly pay you on Tuesday for a Hamburger today.”

The Democrats learned from that cartoon, and it’s message has been their strategy ever since.  Gullible Republicans simply play along.

The Hamburger that the Democrats want is more taxes and more spending.  Like a crack addict going into tremors at the sight of white powder, the Democrats desperately need their latest fix of other people’s money.

Their latest ploy is fairly simple.  With the debt negotiations, they are going to offer huge spending cuts tomorrow (or twenty years out, but do not ask the liberals for details — it only confuses them).  The liberals will gladly give the Republicans spending cuts tomorrow in exchange for tax hikes today.

The Republicans will sign on to such a deal.  The only problem is we will get the tax hikes today and the spending cuts will never materialize.   Once the new money comes in the Party of Treason will say the cuts are not needed, as the deficit is now not as bad as we thought it would be.

The problem with this strategy is it will allow Obama a huge political victory and probably seal his reelection.  With Obama projected to raise ONE BILLION DOLLARS for his reelection campaign, he will carpet bomb the airwaves with the message that he is the fiscally responsible candidate.  He cut $4 trillion in spending.   The other commercials will show John Boehner and Mitch McConnell as the one’s who raised taxes.

Mission accomplished.   Obama will get his other people’s money fix for the Party of Treason and will destroy the political opposition in one fell swoop.

Meanwhile, on the Republican side of the aisle, while the leadership wanders around like newly castrated cattle, you would think at least one of them would figure out that Obama, Pelosi and Reid are setting a trap for them.

In 1986, we got amnesty.  The squishy Republicans and the Party of Treason collaborated and convinced Reagan to sign the amnesty bill.  We all remember the amnesty, but most people forget that it was a two-part deal.  There would be amnesty but the border was to be sealed too.

The Democrats got their hamburger and twenty-five years later, the Republicans are still waiting for them to pay.

The Democrats, being the addicts to other people’s money, understand what all addicts do.  They understand how to find enablers and how to manipulate them.   They have found that in the Republicans and they can very easily manipulate them.

The Democrats realize that the Republicans worship at the altar of bipartisanship.  Like the abused woman in a violent relationship, the Republicans keep hoping the Democrats will like them and keep saying, “Oh they really aren’t that way.”

In the eternal quest for “bipartisanship”, the GOP gives into the Democrats, like the codependent woman who believes if she just gets this one thing right, her abuser will stop abusing and become loving.  The Republicans throw themselves at bipartisanship, dreaming that the Democrats will finally become their friends and the media will start treating them with the same fawning adoration they give the Democrats.  The Republicans will have their Sally Field moment, finally being able to gush, “You like me.  You really like me!”

The problem with ideology is that it is a symptom of a party bereft of beliefs.  That is why the Democrats are not bipartisan.  Say whatever else you want to about the Party of Treason, they have their beliefs, they have their agenda and they stick with them like glue.   The Republicans, for the most part have neither core beliefs nor an agenda, which is what makes it so easy for them to be bipartisan.

Unfortunately for America, they will be bipartisan.  They will gladly give the Obama, Pelosi, Reid axis of fiscal evil the tax increases they want today, in exchange for the promise of spending cuts on Tuesday.

Only Tuesday will never come.

Herman Cain said he would surround himself with people who could help him get the job done. I think if he can give a description of who his team would be he might boost his ratings even more. It is early and I am looking forward to the next debate in June. Fox is hosting one in July so maybe we will see mainstream media at their finest(HA) in June. The best advice now would be from Glenn Beck “do your homework!”.

We will be interested to know what others thought.
