It is time to rebuild America.
Repuglicans are a joke of a governing party, They hate
government. They want to dismantle it (I'm being kind here. They really want to
drown it in a bathtub. They said so! Are they really Fifth Columnists for China today???)
It's time to call a spade a spade. Let me be clear. This is
what fascism looks like, what tyranny looks like.

It is not "Congress" who is failing America as the
media repeats every hour.
It is an ongoing joke that "Washington" cannot get anything done as
the media repeats.
It is not President Obama who is failing as GOP TV (aka Fox
News) reports.
It is the self-proclaimed "Repuglicans" in
Congress and the un-elected Supreme Court who have chosen to gum up everything.
I hope they are enjoying their tea. Justice Scalia has proven himself a fool on
national TV in front of the President. "Citizens United" after the Bush v. Gore vote was one of the worst decisions Justice Kennedy joined.
The Tea-hatters are tools of a fascist idea. They really
want freedom from what? To be corporate tools? To shop at WalMart? To not receive Medicare and Social
Security benefits It's all a wonderful, modern, sophisticated trick build by Dick Ailses and Faux News.
"Don't mess with my Medicare!" What are you saying? In today's
world: we could all be billionaires some day - if only the government would let
us. "I WILL WIN the MegaBucks lotto! and become one". What a sick and corrupt
joke of government we have created. Let's tax the poor to underfund their schools and keep them poor and US rich!
I will be simple and direct. Without Repuglican Senator Mitch
McConnell's and House Speaker John Bohner's self-proclaimed war on Democratic
President Obama, we could have relieved the unemployment problem of millions of
Americans three years ago. We are back to the battles of the early 1930s. Before
we sort-of agreed that we almost NEEDED federal spending to create jobs. And
then there was that WWII spending spree that employed millions and cost billions. It worked?
Or perhaps it didn't. Unbounded federal spending to defeat a common enemy.
Sounds like a good idea, but let's not waste our money on useless
military-industrial-congressional largess. Let's BUILD something of value to
ALL of us! Let's rebuild America.
The Repuglicans have wasted three years uselessly posturing
about the "deficit" rather than actually doing anything, actually doing their
jobs to create jobs for the rest of us. I mean literally, spending federal money to buy the infrastructure we need. The deficit is not the issue today.
Austerity will drive us into a complete Depression - as it did 80 years ago.
And as it is doing today in southern Europe. Now we live in only a "Great
Recession." We cannot live under a "gold standard" as Germany demands. We need more
economic flexibility to deal with the housing crisis, the financial foolishness of Wall Street and more. Gold is a fool's touchstone.
The Federal government must adopt an inflationary strategy
of dramatic capital spending. The 50 states (and DC and Puerto Rico) cannot do it
themselves as the European Union has proven again - imagine asking Texas to finance California's debts. Hah! The Federal government is the only
agency that can provide the cash to hire local teachers, firefighters, police
and more of US to keep local and state governments working. To sustain employment.
Odd that it is only in the Repugllican-governed states that employment has not
recovered, and has kept total unemployment so high, like Wisconsin and Ohio. They must not want teachers
and others to serve their communities. They must just not know how to make
communities work.
I guess their philosophy is that public, elected government cannot
work, so why try? Let's let private government, unelected, corporatations run the show! Ooookay.
The Repuglican Party is the crumbling foundation of our
failing economic recovery in their goal to capture complete power. And what is
their vision, whether they know it or not? A fascist, corporate state, where
corporate leaders have control. It is not corporations per se that will provide
the answers. It is the corporate CEOs and so-called Boards of Directors who are
their "friends." By knowing each other and by owning FaceBook stock.
It's a tight circle that you are not in if you are reading this.
Let me be absolutely clear here. The Repuglicans are playing
a power game. They are willing to spend like drunken sailors when they have power as
they did under President Bush, No. 43; free war!! It's all a cartoon, a joke of a country. And didn't we know that at heart?
Name one Repuglican member of Congress or in the former
President's home who gave their child to those wars. Name one Repuglican who
voted to actually PAY for those wars. We could have paid full freight starting
in October of 2001 by asking Americans to sacrifice (Oh, God, NO!) and pay an extra dollar per
gallon of gasoline for JUST 15 years! We could have paid for all this by 2016,
But the Repuglicans didn't choose to do that. That would be too hard for their America.
There is no such thing as a Free War. But that is the Repuglican mantra.
Let's be honest about what we owe and why we owe it. We're
talking trillions of dollars now. And President Barack Obama had the guts to
put it all on the budget, on the table. Where is "PayGo" as we had
under President Clinton? It's all a Conservatives' joke. What kind of
responsible governing is that?
No, the Repuglican game is to demand CUTS in federal
spending to match the increase in the debt ceiling. They NEVER voted this way
under Repuglican presidents. What a cartoon of a country we have become. It's
not a "bipartisan" battle. The Repuglicans have declared war on us,
not the Democrats.
I'm sorry. I want to live in a country that builds and
grows, not a country that destroys itself.
