Dream Ticket Vs Dream Ticket?

In 2016 we could actually see, for the first time in  a presidential race, a dream Democratic Ticket versus a dream Republican ticket! Yes Im talking Hillary Clinton & Andrew Cuomo Versus Chris Christie and Jeb Bush!! The Battle of the dream tickets! And what a battle it would be! The destiny that beckons for Hillary Clinton versus the resurgence of the Republican guard! The reserve of Hillary versus the In your face style of Chris Christie, and Andrew  Cuomo Versus Jeb Bush Finally A VP race that actually matters!!!! Dream Ticket Versus Dream Ticket!Just try to remember in Four Years people , that you heard it HERE first!!!:)

Keeping Up Appearances!!!!

YOUD think that Congress, with its never ending series of hearings, committees, and investigations are in fact doing their jobs, but, as we well know in America , APPEARANCES can be deceiving!!!! All Congress is doing, and indeed has done for the last 5 years now, is keep up appearances!!! Pursuing scandal and Politics in order to avodi the real issue in America, the UNEMPLOYED and the long term Jobless, something that will require and does require WORK, and INVESTMENT!!!!! But with  the huge challenge such a REAL issue presents, and with it also being a political minefield for most Republicans, you can bet that it would be, and it has been, avoided like the plague!!!! Yes This congress hasnt yet met a scandal or concern that
they havent embraced, because they have to at least keep up the appearance of doing it's job! But, as the Millions of Unemployed and long term unemployed can tell you, they havent done ANYTHING!!!!! A little less politics and scandal, and a LOT more working for the PEOPLE Washington DC!!!

When the BULLY gets bullied!!!!

Of all the wusses, there is no bigger crybaby than a bully who finally gets bullied!!! And that is whats happening here in the advent of this IRS scandal!! The republicans have done and broken every ethical and traditional practice in order to unseat Barrack Obama, the TEA Party  itself was a frankensteins monster created for the sole purpose of garnering republican power and undermining emocratic interest, the Birther madness, the questions about the presidents faith,  that and so much more, and there was never even a glimmer of outrage in the republican eye!! But now, when the shoe is on the other foot, when the script has been flipped, when the BULLY is actually the one being mistreated, being bullied, now listen to the wails and the caterwauling!!!! While the IRS scandal is clearly taking it too far( and who indeed has been the architects of this extreme political climate republicans?) I do think that America can, and should be spared the outrageous hypocracy that has emerged from the republican party regarding this matter! As the republican party has said on numerous occasions after a outrageous public faux pas has been discovered:"This does not represent the democratic party as a whole" so lets end the Martyring please!!!

THe NEVER ENDING story(Politics as usual!!!)

AS Washington ,once again, focuses more on scandal than substance, on politics more than the issues of concern in America, the NEVER ENDING story that is politics  as usual in America continues!!! It is sad that in the last quarter century in America, Beginning with the Clinton Administration and continuing to the present day Obama Administration, the republican party has pursued a NEVER ending story of Politics as usual!! A story filled with the muck and mire of scandal, innuendo, speculation, smears and schemes!!! And the sad fact is,for the American people, this story never has a happy ending for us! And just when you think the book is closed on this practice, be it from whitewater to lewinskygate the republicans find a way to reopen it!!!! SO now, once again, the republicans are reading from that same failed tome! Hoping that it will finally prove to be a story with a happy ending as they see it, with the republican party back in control of America!!! But the republicans need to come to grips with the fact that America just  read another book in 2012, and it had a happy ending!! And despite everything from IRS gate to Benghazi, they will more than likely want to read that same book over again in 2016,   to the republicans dismay!!!! I only hope that in 2016, the republicans will finally put down their preferred reading material, for a better read!!!!

Straight Talk about Congress, Politics, and the Gun laws

 Simply put, it's as if they pissed on the graves  of the Newtown children! THAT is how low the republican party has, in the interest of POLITICS , sunk with their blocking of Gun legislation!!! And despite all their lies to the contrary , it is all about Politics!!! And   I ask you America, how shameful is it, that they(the republicans) would create a lie, promote a lie, and stand by a lie, even in the face of something that demanded clear action, Which the Newtown Tragedy clearly was!! And rather than focus on the fact and the reality, which is that, due to assault weapons ,20 children, kindergartners, were slaughtered, these supposed men of "honor" these congressmen AND women, instead chose to focus on falsehood and fantasy! The falsehood and fantasy that the "gov" was somehow engineering a mass confisciation of Guns in America!! the BIG LIE of there being a consitutional question here! All for the sake of Politics!!!! Here's the STRAIGHT talk! The republican led congress, to score political points with their base, because thats all it scored with, put the interests of POLITICS above the deaths of Children! It cannot be seen or said any more succintly than that! And that is a sad reflection of the state of this nation and the politics of same!!! Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and others, these are the scum of the earth, and anyone who is proud to have them represent them, needs to be considered just as low! Becasue in America yesterday, Congress in the interest of Politics, and Politics alone, spit on the graves of 20 Children, and to me, Arpil 17 is a day that should live in Infamy! And thats STRAIGHT TALK!!!!

Endless repetition(republican budgeting)

Flash back to the 80's where after 12 years of "Trickle down" economics America finds itself in a recession and a unemployment emergency! A economic state so drastic that even the scoring of a major and merited military victory couldnt save the presidency of then president George H. W. Bush!  Then, 8 years later, after the democratic lead greatest economic expansion in modern American history, The republican party was handed Surpluses in both employment and fianances! A grand american state that the republicans  turned completely around and down in 8 short years!!! And now here we are, once again with the republicans ready to continue down the destructive path that they have been known to travel throught modern history! Simply put, republican budgeting doesnt work! Didnt work for Reagan, didnt work for Bush 1, didnt work for Newt Gingrich, and it didnt work for Bush 2!! And it wont work for Paul Ryan!! This is not speculation, this is HISTORICAL FACT!!!! America cannot afford the endless repetition of economic ineptitude and failure that is republican budgeting, and republican economic strategy!!! When will America get tired of deficits, and high unemployment? Because that is the REPUBLICAN specialty! This is not politics or opinion its HISTORICAL FACT!!!! And with the Facts being so clearly against the republicans, so too should America be against them!! Enough is enough dont you think America?! Are we really going to drink this economic poison yet again?

Days of future past!(the Budget process)

It seems like a repeat of the days of future past in this budget process. Because, in the past, President Bill Clinton faced a hostile republican congress, led by a stubborn and inept House Speaker, who , while in the throes of high unemployment and recession chose to put balancing Well, to make a long story short, Bill Clinton  stood firm against those republican efforts and the rest is history! Indeed his stand made him the most successful democratic president in modern history!  Now again, here in the future the past is repeating itself as, once again, A popular deomocratic president is facing a hostile republican congress led by a stubborn and inept Speaker! And as, once again ,the republican party seeks to balance the budget on the backs of the poor, placing that as a priority once again over the more pressing needs of the unemployed, the underemployed, the homeless and the poverty stricken, President Barrack Obama needs to follow the lead of History, of those days of future past , and stand firm against the misplaced priorities of the republicans!!!! Because, just as in those long ago days, history and the success of conviction beckons!!!!!
