Should GOP denounce recent racist and homophobic attacks on Democrats in Congress?

Posted by admin on June 8th, 2010 and filed under gop congress | 10 Comments »

The recent protests by the Tea-bagger movement against the health care bill went, by any reasonable person’s estimation, way over the line when they hurled insults at Congressman Frank by calling him a faggot. They also went over the line racially by calling Congressman Lewis, one of the bravest and most honored civil rights leaders alive a … (n-word). Of course while that was happening a Tea-bagger also spit on Congressman Cleaver.
Still, the GOP honored and endorsed these actions by not only attending the rally in support of it, but by also refusing to condemn the obvious racists and homophobes that were also there. The GOP has married itself to the lowest and most base of racists and scum in this country by continuing to support that people who bring racist signs to their rallies and signs that threaten the life of the President and his family.
Make no mistake, the people attending and condoning this behavior are not Americans. They are those who openly advocate over-turning a lawful election because they simply don’t like who was elected or his policies that he said he would implement if elected. In short, they lost and they are off and determined to stop President Obama, even if that means violence. They are of course sick and deranged. Still that said, why do they have the backing of the current GOP leadership?
The answer to the above question is simple, power. The current GOP is so stung by it’s loss last year that even their formerly honorable leaders such as Mike Pence are willing to embrace the disease of racial hatred if they think they might win their votes. Of course there are the more airhead lunatics of the right wing such as Michelle Bachmann and Sarah Palin, but the truth is that they are mostly harmless idiots. When it becomes really dangerous is when you have so-called leaders of the GOP like Mitch McConnell or John Boehner who also attach their names and support to the new KKK, simply because they want the control back. They have accepted the disease as a path back to power and to with America and what it’s supposed to stand for. They would rather win by any sick and racist means and rule over a broken America, just as long as they are the rulers. We should be very afraid of and fight this illness.
So, the question becomes, does the GOP leadership have an obligation to denounce the homophobia and blatant racism of the current Tea-bagger movement or is it really what they believe? Are they as racist and hateful as the group that they seem to support or are they using the rednecks and gay haters just as a step to try to regain control of the government?
The current GOP leadership has chosen to lay down with the sickest animals of racism and hate. They have to choose. Are they that power hungry or are they Americans first.

Gallup Poll: Obama Job Approval 50% – 43%

http://gallup.com

Just like the NCAA March Madness, there’s upsets and victories.

The Democratic Party pass the controversial $940 Billion health care reform package on 219 – 212 vote. All the Republicans and some of the most conservative Democrats voted against it. Minority Leaders John Boehner and Mitch McConnell vows to repeal the decision.

President Obama will sign this into to law.

I congratulate President Barack Obama, Vice President Joesph Biden and the Democratic Congress for passing the health care reform. It was a difficult job. Emotions were high.

If the Democratic Party would have failed in passing health care reform, it’s curtains for them. Now that they pass the bill, the Democrats can sustain some of the potential losses they are facing in the 2010 U.S. Midterm elections.

The problems will now fall on President Barack Obama. There’s no more blaming former President George W. Bush, no more saying that Republicans are holding us back. No more talk about how things were in former President Ronald Reagan or former President Bill Clinton. It’s all now the current president.

I will now focus on now making sure that the Obama Administration will hold its promises of ending the wars, bring jobs to all Americans and mending fences with political opponents.

Boehner Presses Speaker Pelosi to Let the American People Read Bills Before Congress Votes

Posted by admin on May 4th, 2010 and filed under congress democrats | 25 Comments »

http://gopleader.gov Appearing on Fox News’ America’s Newsroom with Bill Hemmer and Megyn Kelly, House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) discussed a effort underway by Republicans and rank-and-file Democrats in Congress to force Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to post all major bills online for at least 72 hours before a House vote to ensure that the American people and their elected representatives can review them. The effort is being led by Reps. Greg Walden (R-OR), Brian Baird (D-WA), and John Culberson (R-TX). More than 160 Members of Congress have already signed onto a Walden-authored petition that would force Speaker Pelosi to allow a vote on a House rules change requiring a 72-hour review period. He also touched on the Democrats proposed government takeover of health care and media reports suggesting that Speaker Pelosi plans to bring up a House bill that is more liberal, more costly, with more government involvement than ever before.

Would John McCain lie to you?

Posted by admin on April 7th, 2010 and filed under democratic congress | 25 Comments »

When it comes to his self-confessed ignorance of economics and statements he’s made about taxes, the answer is “yes, he lies quite regularly.” In fact, it’s pretty much impossible to know when he’s telling the truth.
