Gabby Watch

Want to know something? Gabby is a good talker. No, no, she is! Boy does that girl know how to talk. She could probably sell someone a rusted bucket and convince them that it would change their life forever.

…and that is just what she has done. She has sold the people of her district a rusting bucket known as the Democratic Party, a bucket that she proudly sits in. If you think about it, there are really 3 main issues Gabby used to get herself placed in that bucket on the shoulders of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.

Issue 1: The War on Terror. Did she ever talk her way through this one. Gabby used the political climate of Iraq to her advantage. She knew that people wanted to see progress and change in Iraq, so she told them she would get them that change. “We must pursue a responsible exit strategy from Iraq, but only after Iraq is secure.”But she also knew that she couldn’t be viewed as weak on fighting terrorism, because as much as the nation wants to see a new way forward for Iraq, they don’t want a repeat of 9/11. “We need to get serious about homeland security, by implementing the recommendations of the 9/11 commission. Nothing is more important than keeping Americans safe.”

Issue 2: Fiscal Responsibility. Gabby knows that few in America actually get elected to public office by promises of raising taxes, pork-loading bills, and fiscal insanity. “Giffords will take these skills and experiences with her to Washington, D.C. to bring fiscal sanity back to our nation’s finances.” Gabby told everyone that it was time to stop the madness and use our tax dollars for the strict purposes they needed to be used for to make our country run.

Issue 3: National Security/Border Security. Gabby knew that protecting our borders and defending our nation were top issues for many, and still are today. So she adopted a stance that she knew would win her a seat in Congress. She acted tough on the border and national security issues because that is what the vast majority of Americans want. A safe homeland and secure border. “Our ports – uninspected. Our border – unprotected. And we’re still dependent on Mideast oil. Five years after 9/11 Washington’s failed to make us safer.”

But as soon as Gabby arrived in Washington, she let all of her campaign talk drift away with the wind. She voted to elect ultra-liberal Nancy Pelosi as the Speaker of the House. The leadership Nancy Pelosi has offered has been called “destructive” by some members of her own party. She voted force the President of the United States to bend to the political desires of few on the issue of Iraq. When the President stood firmly, she voted to override his veto. Instead of actually practicing fiscal responsibility, the Iraq War bill the Democrats drafted was bursting at the seems with pork. Gabby voted for the largest tax hike in American history which totals $39,200,000,000 over the next 5 years. And like a good jibber-jabber, Gabby has done nothing but talk about the border, instead of working to secure the border.

The rusting bucket of the Democratic Party that Gabby has sold Arizona is nothing new to America. It is the same Democratic Party that governed for years through high taxes and deflating national security. The only difference between the Democrats of then and the Democrats of now, is they know how to talk like they are going to do something, but when push comes to shove, they would rather enact an ultra-liberal agenda that is going to get America nowhere fast…

…and Gabby is one of them.
