Republicans -- again? Really?

Republicans in congress are working on something big, these days.
No, not a jobs bill.
In spite of all the rhetoric, Republicans have not brought up one jobs bill the whole time they have had control of Congress.
Not infrastructure.
Wouldn't want people to have safe bridges, they got by before the bridges fell down, they can do it after.
No. Not even deficit reduction.
The Republicans are working on an abortion bill. Again. They want to stop tax funding for abortions. Again.
The law against government funding of abortions, passed in 1976, still on the books, still a law, never not been a law, is not good enough for Republicans. They have passed, or attempted to pass the same measures three (3) times.
Never mind that it is already a law.
Never mind that joblessness is rampant. That our infrastructure is crumbling. That our schools are failing in every way and their budget is being slashed.
They don't care if you cannot feed your family.
They don't care if you lose your home to shady business practices and deregulated banks.
They don't care if YOU live or die.
The only thing they care about at this time in the nations great needs that we have is how to restrict a females right to choose.
Which means (to them) closing as many women's health care facilities as possible.
Never mind if it means millions of poor and working -now not working - women will not be able to get basic medical care, such as blood pressure tests, such as cholesterol testing - such as birth control information. Guess birth control is, in their minds, abortion also.
When are we going to realise that these people in congress are only there for one thing?
To protect the 1% of the wealthy - their owners.
Oh, yes, as they have shown, by their actions, by the bills they have brought up, and the issues they have voted on, and the way they have voted, they want to be women. With a lot of children. Or, without having sex.
The way they are acting in Congress is a national disgrace. Yet, for some reason there are still people who believe they are working for them.
The Republicans presently in our government only work for one group of Americans.
Give you a hint.
It ain't you.

Get involved. See what your pet Republican Senator or Congressman is REALLY doing to you.
Go to the government website, and see what they voted on which bill they voted yes and which no on.
They have passed 13 pieces of legislation since they took office. They have cost us millions of dollars in their totally obstructionist, unnecessary political maneuverings.
They want to make Obama a one term president.
If they screw around and ruin the American government, manufacturing, farming, air, water, people. they do not care.
You are not important to them.
You will vote for them again anyway.
Because, in their mind, you are just the poor stupid sheep that always voted Republican. Even if it was Clearly NOT in your, or the countries best interests.
So, enjoy the time in the ditch the Republicans manufactured for you, because they are doing their best to push the country deeper and deeper in the hole.
AND, thanks to all the Republicans who don't have time to research the FACTS for themselves, rather watch it on the main stream media that is owned by the multi billionaires, you still vote for these Zeros.
Please be an informed voter. Its not hard, just do a little research.
Please.
At least KNOW what the people you voted for are doing and have done. It is in black and white.
Just the facts, mam.

Republican Platform

Are we watching the policies, or listening to the hype?

So far, the republicans and the Democrats have shown some of their true colors. As have the T-Partiers. It is difficult to believe.
What is totally odd, is that apparently the Republican voter wants their representatives to :

A- restrict rights of women ( according to Governor Rick Perry of Texas, this is an emergency legislation, to be acted on before jobs bills can be considered)

B- bust up the unions ( a matter of budgetary concern, according to Governor Wilson of Wisconsin, and, apparently all of the Republican officeholders in Wisconsin. Which, for some unfathomable reason were voted in. This was a budgetary concern, until the Democrats refused to participate in the vote. Then it was decided in order to strip people of their constitutional rights, it ‘became’ non-budgetary. And was passed anyway. That is Real representation. Congratulations on your apparently voted in representation, Wisconsin.)

C- Create a health care system that will allow you to become sick - but within limits. Via the ‘voucher system” you get so many vouchers to pay a PRIVATE Insurance company for insurance. Any price they want to charge you after that, you pay for. (This will help to weed out the very sickly, and very poor. They will not have any access to medical treatment, so they will most likely die. The thought behind this? If you are not wealthy enough to buy insurance, and too sick to work, you should die and take the burden of your poor, sick self off society. In this case, the society of the well to do.)

D- Cut funding for the schools. This is related to B. We can save oodles of money by only partially funding our schools. After all, if you educate the populace to much, they may just realize that they have an absolute right to vote, to choose what they want done with their money the government has collected from them in the form of taxes and fees. We have a right to have a say in how they spend our money, whether it is stuck in a “rainy day” Fund or in the Governors personal ‘stimulus fund’ that no one can look at or audit. Or is it just Governor Rick Perry of Texas that has his own, personal, hands off slush fund while the state of Texas is 27 billion in debt?

E-Do away with unemployment insurance - if you are without a job, you should not just stay at home sucking up that fabulous unemployment insurance. After all, it pays about 2/3 of what you got at your regular job. If you really want a job, you can always get one at the local greasy spoon. If you cannot cook, wait tables or wash dishes (for less than min wage. Often these jobs go to illegal’s who get paid under the table. That’s totally good for our country, huh?) not to worry. Aluminum is being bought for 23cents a pound. Pick up cans.

F- Do away with rights to unimpeded travel. - don’t even mention the airlines, even driving down the road, you are subject to be stopped at any time and asked for your drivers license, registration, proof of insurance. Then you are grilled about where you are going, where you have been, and why. After which you are interrogated about the possibilities of your hauling meth, or coke, or some other sort of narcotic. When you assure the police officer that no, indeed you are not, you are then asked if it is alright for them to search your car. This is after they have- looked through the back window, the side window, the drivers window, and more than likely, stuck their head in to look around. Just what kind of search do they need to be doing? How bad are the American people, anyway? If you happen to know your rights, which everyone should, but many do not ( see item D) and tell them no way, they proceed to detain you and send for a doggy officer to search anyway. Where do you see a problem with this? After all, it is called being ‘tough’ on crime.
G- Believe that waterboarding and other tortures are not torture if they use them. They also mistakenly believe that valuable information is gleaned by this tactic, despite a multitude of evidence it does not.

H Lower tax rates for corporations and the wealthy.

E Keep giving subsidies to companies that are profiting billions and billions of dollars a year off of the American People.

Need more? With these people in office, there is surely more to come.

Evangelical Christians

So disgusting, that it is difficult to write about.
Who are these so called evangelical Christians? What would Jesus say about them?
When would he have backed the ideology that the Republicans endorse?

Would our Lord have said that taking the food out of the mouths of babes is a good idea? Wasn’t it Him who said harm not one hair on a child’s head? Guess he wasn’t talking about feeding, clothing or educating them. Not to mention any kind of health care.
Still, the Republicans claim to be Christian.
Lets see.. Would a true Christian take money from the poor and give it to the rich? What is all this bellyaching from the wealthy right about giving up some of their wealth to the people whose backs they made their wealth from? Would that not more closely follow the Lords word? If he asks you for his cloak give him also your coat? was that just meant for the poor people to give their last rags to the rich?

I kind of doubt it.
If you would read the Bible instead of going to some Palin Tea Party do dad, or a Republican bull shitter where they spout they are the Christian right, the Moral Majority. Excuse me, I see nothing at all moral about condemning people to death so you can have a bigger CPAC. What is moral about subsidizing the oil and gas companies and cutting the food we give to our children. What is moral about building a bridge to nowhere and cutting school funding so drastically that we must close some of them. What is moral about renting yourself your own house for ten thousand dollars a month and charging it to the taxpayers? What is moral about taking off to south America to see your mistress instead of running the state you were elected to run. Just what is it that is moral about the Republicans?

They do not even stand for real people. They stand for big businesses. They are not people. You cannot put a corporation in jail. Corporations do not get cancer. Corporations do not take vacations. Why, why why would people ever, ever vote Republican, or even think about it? Unless, of course, they are not a Christian.

The Republicans take the Lords name in vain when they use it for propaganda.

GOP get out of my body!!

You are such hypocrites!

You claim to be for small government.
You say the Democrats have to much say in your personal life. Did you mean YOUR personal life? It sure seems like you do not mean every other woman that live in the pitiful state of Texas. You do not have a Dr showing you sonograms of your testicles before you make a woman pregnant.
I think you should.

Actually, you should be one of the people to have a mandatory vasectomy to even CONSIDER voting for this.

This lunacy, this illusion of grandeur you republicans have must surely be passed on in the genes. We cannot stand any more of these disgusting, pandering displays in our government circles. You cannot be allowed to propagate. You will simply visit upon an undeserving populace some more of your psychotic delusional idiocy.

You women who would allow this bill to be considered.

How DARE you call yourselves women? How DARE you say you are so much better than me you have the absolute right to tell me what to do with my body? You should have your tubes tied, and sent to the harems in Arabia.

It is obvious you are not an American woman who fought against injustice every since this country was formed. For you to try to shove your beliefs down my throat is beyond traitorous. You should have to serve in an orphanage. You should have to take care of the unwanted children.

This is an outrage.

You cut funding for health insurance, you cut tens of thousands of people off Medicaid, Texas is one of the worst states in the union to try and get assistance from. The operators of social services will tell you over the phone their main job is to find some way to deny people coverage.

People who cannot qualify for Medicaid (they make $200(two hundred) a month or more) , and cannot afford insurance are just supposed to shut up and die. Like in Arizona.
At the same time, you make it almost impossible for a woman to get an abortion for rape. It has to be approved and regulated. Where were you when it was occurring? Trying to force some other poor person to bear yet another child they cannot afford and cannot raise?

Denial of individual liberties.
Shame on you. Words cannot express how repugnant you are.
