HIGHT AND COMPANY "Circling the Wagons"

Do you remember who said the following quote? “There is not a conservative America and a liberal America”. If you said Barack Obama and remembered that was the beginning of a strategy to convince many people who do not ascribe to the liberal philosophy of governing to vote for him in the 2008 election, you are correct.

You would think convincing voters that a candidate is a liberal is not difficult when they have a track record. Obama had a track record. His time as a State Senator Illinois 13th district and his time as a U.S. Senator include plenty of evidence he is a liberal. Spend, spend, spend, tax, tax, tax! But that is what democrat need to do in many areas of the country and they are surprisingly cunning at doing it.

Now we have Judge Rusty Hight trying to do the same as Obama. He is distancing himself from the Democratic Party he has been so vocal about for years and trying to change the record he has established as a judge and a lawyer. Like Obama, he stands up before crowds and says whatever sounds conservative: “I have sent 900 people to jail as Judge”, he says. With the usual cast of media characters chiming in and still thinking that if they repeat something enough, voters will believe it. “Hight is a conservative,” says Vanessa Brashier (editor of The Cleveland Advocate and The Dayton News and an admitted Democrat). “He deserves to be re-elected” says the liberal radio broadcaster who has gone so far in his dedication to the Democrats that he defended people like Judge Hight’s good friend, Democrat Phil Fitzgerald.


Like with Obama, the problem is the facts are out in the public domain that prove that Judge Hight is not just a liberal, he is like one of those liberals they feature on Fox News occasionally for releasing dangerous convicted criminals. Not every criminal, but way too many. Liberty Dispatch has limited itself to just a few cases and resisted being a complaint department for the people who want their case in his court highlighted so we didn’t duplicate our point. OUR POINT IS IT IS ELECTION TIME AND JUST LIKE OBAMA, DEMOCRATS LIKE JUDGE HIGHT WANT TO APPEAR LIKE CONSERVATIVES. His record speaks for itself. Read the cases on here and go confront Hight in the next forum. Then send us his response for A FACT CHECK unless you want to get the volume and page number off of here and go to the courthouse yourself.

To make matters more obvious for the voters - the media help he is getting are the ones who always favor liberals. It is not that they don’t know what he has done, it is that they are anti-death penalty ‘easy on crime” liberals themselves. KSHN radio ran the advertisement one election year when the woman came forward and talked about Rusty Hight forging documents in order to deprive custody of a child – but they were for the other candidate then. Now they are for Hight – and all of a sudden this man is wonderful? How many lawyers or judges do you know who have been forced to admit they forged documents?

If you had just walked off of the boat from a foreign country and had studied past midterm elections in the United States maybe you would think everything is just like it always is just before polls open for early voting on October 19th and for election day on November 2nd . But you would be wrong. The idea of this being a regular ole election isn’t reality. As far as local or national races are concerned, the idea this is business as usual just simply isn’t reality. Local incumbent politicians like Hight are circling their wagons and trying to present themselves in way you would consider voting for them. Too many of the complaints and frustrations leveled at the Democratic Party’s national leadership apply to easily to local officeholders for them to think voters here will be in a mood to simply check the box by the incumbents name this year.

Things are different. Hight and other local candidates that have chosen to remain in the Democratic Party are understood to have chosen to stand by the decisions their party has been making. And those decisions are in many cases just the opposite of what most Texans wanted to be made. A health-care plan that could bankrupt the nation and bailouts that could effect generations of Americans including our great great grandchildren and a response to unemployment that has been unacceptable, and the continued investment of taxpayer money in making government bigger and bigger and more and more controlling – all unacceptable to the spirit of democracy and freedom Texans are known to love.

Add to all of that stories of corruption by by Washington Democrats like Charlie Wrangle, MaxineWaters, and others with no trial date set to determine whether they should be thrown into the jailhouse like all of us regular folks would be had we done what they did.. Just the opposite they are running for re-election! People like openly Barney Frank and other Democrats that made the Fannie Mae and Fannie Mac decisions that have caused much of our problems - they are not just running for re-election, they are blaming the Republicans and denying their major part in all of this.

It should shock no one that locals are circling their wagons. All of these outrageous things people in this community are hearing about Democrats in Washington sound very familiar. Not only are our locals tacitly endorsing the actions of their people in Washington, they have their own mini-run of the same thing going on here. Allowing our taxes to be raised by not countering the constant inflation of our property values by the Appraisal District, doubling the budget, doubling the budget, giving themselves raise after raise, acting like they know nothing about wrongdoing all around them, etc.etc etc.

We already know Obama’s professional campaign advisers have come up with all kinds of ways for him to spin things – blame Bush, blame Ed. Rove , and Ed Gillespie – say Republicans are tied to special interest (when Democrats have had more special interest money in all three of the last campaigns ….and this one).And the classic foreign investors have bought the Republicans (when it is Obama whose policies have pleased foreigners). We know they have expressed no responsibility for our predicament or plans to change course.So it is no surprise Hight and Company are doing the same thing.

So what will the local professional spinmeister do to try and get us to vote for people here that make up Obama’s base of support? What will the local media do to help the local party infamous for scandals, higher taxing and more spending and liberal court rulings?

Lastly, the question exist... Why has Cleveland Advocate Editor, Vanessa Brashier slanted her reporting so much in favor of Judge Hight and other Democrats??? Answer???

More of the same is the message LOUD AND CLEAR. “Circle the wagons and say what we gotta say about our opponents…… and then when we win, more of the same”.
