Conservatives Rejoice! Happy Days are Here Again! The two Republican victories in the gubernatorial races should be considered a mandate for Republican leadership, a mandate for increased spending and troop levels for the US Foreign Legion efforts in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, and also a mandate for a greatly a expanded Patriotic Act to remove any civil liberties that US citizens still have.

The people's Republic of China probably grants it's citizens fewer civil liberties than the US, particularly with regard to free speech, but that should only encourage Republicans to try harder to become #! in denial of civil liberty. With regard to economic freedom, China seems to encourage more innovative free enterprise than the US, which would help explain it's extremely rapid economic growth, although the US still theoretically still has the world's largest GDP.

But if the Republicans try harder, and emphasize subsidizing their bureaucratic economic dinosaur buddies on Wall St, and increase payments to the military-industrial complex, they may soon be able to brag that the US is an even more authoritarian country than China. When one considers that US spending on it's collectivist "benign imperialism" military efforts in the Mid-East is counted as part of positive US GDP, one can see that the US economy is a Humpty Dumpty that has fallen, and not an economy in need of a Republican recovery plan, or a simple time-out from Democrat recovery plans; the US is in need of American Revolution II. Neither Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, nor Ron Paul and all of his men are going to put Humpty together again. So rejoice, Republicans authoritarians, you and your heros Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Sean Hannity have plenty to be proud of as you beat the drums for an escalation of military action to keep America "standing tall" as the world's #1 nemesis, and pave the way to revolution.
