I heard today that Anthony Weiner (D.NY.) is resigning today because of his penchant for sending racy pictures on twitter. Who cares? The media does, that is all I have been hearing or reading. Other than the double standard that seems to be in effect in the media about whose sex scandal deserves major play. Why are they focusing on this story in the wake of all the other things going on?
You have an all-out attack on the middle class going on in this country. We have corporations running just about everything. The Republicans are in the pocket of these corporations, and the media ignores it. We have Glenn Beck pointing at a picture of President Obama and asking why do you need a gun. This is crazy. I have heard the defense of Mr. Beck. He is just crazy like a fox. He really means that the Democrats want to take away your guns. I have challenged people to show me the evidence on that. Of course I have never had any shown to me.
You have a major government shut down looming, you have people in congress trying to roll back regulations for the environment, tobacco, child labor laws, and just about anything they can think of to support their corporate bosses. The scary part is that a lot of people in this country are buying into this stuff. There was an article a few weeks ago about letting the Republicans have what they want the list was amazing.This is the article.
All the issues that are the core of their conservative beliefs into reality, and make them the law of the land. Let conservatives who "want My America back" have it. And finally the nation will get to see the reality of Ronald Reagan's "Shining City on the Hill ™."
Give the Republican Party everything it wants.
Everything. Absolutely, completely, totally everything. No hedging. No compromising. The whole package. A true, conservative, Republican vision.
This is that America.
Eliminate Social Security.
Eliminate Medicare.
End unemployment insurance.
Make all abortion illegal.
Remove government oversight of Wall Street banks.
Remove government regulation of corporations.
Make collective bargaining by union employees illegal.
Cut benefit packages for schoolteachers, nurses and all public employees.
Stop government funding of social welfare programs, food stamps, and low-income public housing assistance.
Increase government subsidies to Big Oil companies.
Increase tax breaks for pharmaceutical company "direct-to-consumer" advertising.
Lower the tax rate for millionaires.
Eliminate taxes for corporations.
Allow corporations to stop providing health insurance for employees.
Remove government regulation of insurance companies.
Let cable companies set their own rates.
Let Internet providers block competitors.
Close the Department of Education.
Close the EPA and eliminate environment protection laws.
Get rid of FEMA, cut federal disaster aid.
End Affirmative Action.
Eliminate the requirement that suspects must be read their Miranda Rights.
Allow police to enter private homes without warrants.
Get rid of needing a court order for wiretaps.
Let anyone carry a gun and without registration.
Ban gay marriage.
Let police stop whoever looks illegal and require proof of citizenship.
No referring to the existence of homosexuals in schoolbooks.
Increase the defense budget.
Declare war against Iran and North Korea.
Continue fighting the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Increase our military presence around the world.
All of this.
All of it.
And so much more. That's just the first 100 days.
No cherry-picking only the issues you like. That's the conservative agenda. That's their Shining City on the Hill ™.
That's your America.
The Republican Party's American Dream.
Consider it.
This isn't about single issues. This is about who the Republican Party is.
The Republican Party has long been able to flimflam the American public to vote against its self-interest because Democrats have always blocked enough of the GOP's worst far-right instincts. But if you want to see who the Republican Party truly is, then give them all of this, give them everything they want. In four years, the nation will feel so demeaned, the GOP will cease to exist.
And if Republicans try to flim-flam you by saying the same about Democrats, remember the truth: when Franklin Roosevelt had everything his way, the American public elected him four times.
Be careful what you wish for, you might get it.

THE CANDIDATES
I wish people would actually listen to what the GOP candidates say.
Romney wants to privatize FEMA. He thinks it is immoral for the government to aid disaster victims.
Bachmann wants to get rid of the EPA this is the agency that tries to keep our air and water clean. Bachmann has no sense of history. All she has to do is go back 30 years and look at the quality of our rivers.
Gingrich and Cain want to defund the National Labor Relations Board. Why? I guess any agency that might try and make things fair for workers has to go.
They want to get rid of oversight on Wall Street; I mean why would they want to do that? Wall Street has never done anything to us.
If you notice they are always attacking American workers. This comes at a time when workers share of the pie is at an all-time low, and companies’ profits are at an all-time high. With all the things that the Republican Governors have been doing to destroy the American worker, it isn’t hard to see whose pocket this guys are in.
Oh I forgot Rick Perry the Governor of Texas claims now that he is a Profit, but no one really knows it.

PRESIDENT BACHMANN
Michelle Bachmann says she is running for President. She now says she will not run for her Congressional seat while she is running for President. My question is if she drops out of the Presidential race will she say God told her to do it, and then turn around and run for her old seat? Minnesota law says she has to June 5th 2012 to change her mind.
I am willing to make a wager right now that if she is out of the Presidential race early, and she doesn’t get an offer from fixed news to be on their channel she will be back in contention for her old seat. People like Bachmann know that when she is out of the limelight she is going to fade into the dark hole of people who thought they were someone,and aren't.

DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I SAY?
Herman Cain is running for President. He stated in an interview that President Obama was raised in Kenya. This is false, and has been proved false. Michelle Bachmann, and Sarah Palin say some of the stupidest things and get away with them. Newt Gingrich told everyone not to quote what he actually said, because what he said wasn’t actually what he said. How anyone can take these people seriously is beyond me. I left out the Religious quack Santorum, and Romney who actually runs away from his own plan for health care in Massachusetts.
There is a blog I read. She stated that she will vote for anyone but Obama. I have challenged some of her statements in the past. She and her husband are Confessional Lutherans. Instead of backing up their statements they attack me for having the nerve to challenge them. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Well maybe not people who would dare challenge their opinions. In their minds these are concrete unshakable facts.

WHO ARE THESE CLOWNS?
Who elected these clowns? Paul Broun (R-Ga.) doesn’t want to raise the debt ceiling, when told it will cost at least a quarter million public employee jobs he said a lot of government employees need to go find a real job. I personally heard this from a Minnesota state representative we were talking to she said public jobs are not real jobs anyway. Of course not, I mean prison guards or state police, people who plow the snow in the winter they are not real jobs according to these clowns. The public employees who should lose their jobs are these clowns. When is it going to sink in that these are the people who make things better for everyone?

WARS
People, who know me, know I have been against the Iraqi war from the beginning, and I was only for the Afghanistan war a very short time. We accomplished our goal very soon after going in there. Of course these wars have become the longest in our history. President Bush lied us into the Iraqi war. President Obama said he would get us out of there maybe he will, but it’s been two years since he’s been in office. The Afghan war is still going strong. We need to bring those men and women home. We are not going to change anything there. Osama Bin Laden is dead. We as a nation are never going to be totally free of terrorism. It has been with us throughout are history, and it’s not going anywhere soon. A lot of people in other countries hate us, and we make an attractive target for all their problems. We have many home grown loony tune people who believe nothing other than the government is conspiring against them. We have politicians who want to serve and are serving in government who are not trying to make this country better. They are making money. That is the goal and their only goal. So why should the men and women who are dying for no specific reason be sacrificed for these people.

ANTHONY WEINER
Anthony Weiner admitted today he sent inappropriate pictures on the internet. I have no problem with what anyone does online or off as long as it’s legal. Mr. Weiner (D-NY) at least never told me how to live my life and then go against everything he said he stood for. My problem with Mr. Weiner is that he is an idiot. What makes him think that no one would find out about this? This is not the first time a politician has done something that shows so much lack of common sense. My favorite President of the last several is Bill Clinton. He did the same thing showed no common sense, and Mr. Clinton is one of the most intelligent people around. So hopefully other politicians will learn a lesson, and use common sense.
