The answer is of coarse the conservatives. Listen to any liberal be they pundit or politician and everything out of their mouths is doom and gloom. There are countless examples throughout the last century, and I will flesh some of them out shortly. On the other side of the idealistic coin,the conservatives are the most optimistic people in our country. Their legislative agenda reflects their world view.
The happiest of them all has every reason to be. Many of us conservatives are grounded in faith in God, belief that the United States is the greatest country on the planet, and the support of our families. We know the that the bigger the government gets the sadder the individual becomes. It has been proved that when taxes are lowered and everyone has more money to spend all of our citizens benefit. The small businessman is happy he can expand and hire more employees. Those new employees are happy, and proceed to spend their extra cash. You see conservative principles can make everyone happier. Ronald Reagen described America as a "shining city on a hill", we still see our country like that every day. That what makes us happiest of all.
Now I could not write and not mention our friends on the left. They are one of the most angry groups of people I have ever seen,and I have been to a Pantera/White Zombie show. Their hatred of George W. Bush was pure white hot. They made a film about the assassination of president Bush. The senate majority leader Harry Reed actually declared the surge was lost the war was over several months before full operational deployment. We all know what happened when they reached that number, it worked Al-Queda in Iraq destroyed top to bottom. Those cheerful folks over at Moveon.org placed that "general betray us" ad in the New York Times. It might have given them a chuckle for a bit ,but that made hundreds of thousands of our military very unhappy. President Obama's chief of staff is on tape saying "never let a crisis go to waste" Whats so happy about a crisis? Every time the president talks about the economy which means spending our money,and growing the size of government. Wall Street does a nose dive. This makes anyone with a 401k very unhappy. I can not wait until a big government starts in on health care. I will be able line my bird cage with my 401k statements. Sarcasm aside the problems we face are not solved by more government.
