WHY YOU SHOULD NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ARGUING WITH CONSERVATIVES

 Dear GOP/Teabagger,

    I am writing this letter for one special reason. That reason is so that I don't have to deal with your continued whining to "show you the facts" when all I ever do is to show you them. At which point you simply choose to ignore them.

   You seem to be master at the art of self imposed  ignorance. Your ability to deny truth and facts is nothing short of amazing. 

   The way you utter out lies and disinformation you've been spoon fed from Fox news and your less than honorable party spokespeople is very impressive.

   Whether you do this because your bigotry forces you to or you're so mentally challenged that you'll believe anything someone tells you, or you just like being somebodies pawn, I don't really know. But I also really don't give a rats ass.

   If at this point in time you refuse to see what the GOP/Tea party is doing to this nation in your name then you never will. And I thus have no reason to try convincing you of the truth.

   The fact that you hold fast to a party that has been very open about its desire to cause division and chaos in America whether by hook or by crook proves that your devotion to the party line goes way beyond any devotion you have for America.

   I have posted already that the tipping point has been passed. The ACA has become a booming success in spite of the conservative movements numerous attempts to sabotage it. And the GOP has proven to all of America just how petty and dishonest it really is.

   And to the chagrin of the GOP/Tea party the President will once again be seen as the victor for the American people. While the conservatives will continue to be viewed as nothing but worthless do nothing troublemakers whose fear mongering and lies are the trademarks of their existence.

   So, as I have said before, I'm not at all worried about the conservative agenda. Their dismal future is already cast in stone. I will simply sit back have a drink and laugh at the self imposed destruction of the GOP/Tea party.

   And when you ask me for the facts that you will quickly ignore I will instead repost this letter to you. Just so that you understand that I'm not ignoring you. It's just that you aren't worth the time I'd be wasting.

STAND TALL AND PROUD

   As you, I, and most all left leaning political folks know all too well, our fellow Americans who lean to the right possess a host of serious drawbacks that we find not only reprehensible, but also boggle our senses as to how they can talk themselves into not only accepting them as true, but of staunchly being in defense of them.

   It amazes me that without fail, every time I fight a battle of words and ideas with a conservative, be they GOP, Tea, or Libertarian party, it feels to me as to what it must be like to try catching a greased hog.

   Just as you corner them with logic, and grab hold of them with facts and truth, they simply grab hold of another absurd talking point they've been fed, and slip away from the issue at hand.

   After attempting to force reason and sanity upon the self induced ignorance they cling to, most of us on the left realize that those we are trying to expose to the truth aren't all single digit IQ lifeforms, but are just stubborn hard heads that either can't, or won't change their way of thinking.

   Whether from racial bigotry, identity insecurity, or ingrained tradition, those that hold fast to the lies and propaganda they get fed from Fox and their less than honorable elected reps. do exhibit one thing the left could employ more of, Dedication.

   For all their faults and weaknesses, the hard line right wingers do have dedication and commitment. Even though it is ill thought out, it still remains a positive virtue.

   These virtues do posses an inherent problem to the left leaning however, just the nature of being a liberal/progressive causes us to always examine and question things we are being told. To not just take the word of others as to the validity and honesty of a particular issue or event.

   We approach things pragmatically and require proof of their integrity and accuracy before assigning them our support.

   These are certainly critical steps in keeping our platform free from mindless obedience, but when we do commit to a position, we need to see it through to the end.

   For 6 years now the President we elected twice, Barrack Obama, has done amazing things in the recovery of America, and he has done it fighting more political opposition than any President in American history.

   As our President strives to improve the lives of EVERY American, he faces unending negative forces from the right. Forces whose only intent is to somehow defeat and dishonor him and any sort of legacy he might leave.

   These negative forces the GOP/Tea Party invoke are done so at the cost of whatever they deem needed. And if this country needs to self destruct to accomplish their agenda, so be it, they are more than willing to let America burn to the ground.

   And although the idea of giving them all their own section of land with which to establish their own miserable third world nation is extremely appealing, we are unfortunately, stuck with them.

   And so, that being the case,  we on the left must insure that America remains a country that is worth living in.

   To accomplish this task, we don't need to sink to the level of dirty tricks, lies, and voter suppression that the right loves to employ. After all we have the high ground by espousing equality for all, fairness for all, and acceptance of all.

   But we all need to commit ourselves to the cause. The ACA has now become a proven success story. Millions of Americans now have affordable healthcare. Something the GOP/Tea Party were counting on failing.

The unemployment rate is under 6%.

   President Obama has proven over and over to be a man of integrity, honor, and wisdom. Which is why the fear mongering haters of the right have not been able to make even one of their continuing barrage of false accusations stick, because they are all lies and distorted half truths. Just like most of the things the GOP/Tea Party says.

   If we all vote in the 2014 elections then we will keep the senate and maybe take back the house.

   So stand tall, don't fall victim to the ever increasing desperate lies the right spews out. Have faith that our President has our backs and that in the end we will be the victors, and the America we love will be purged of those that wish it ill.

RELAX AND ENJOY THE SHOW

  

    If there still remains anybody who thinks that the GOP/Tea party scandal search teams will somehow bring about the demise of either the ACA, or the President himself, do yourself a big, big favor, stop listening to those who would wish it possible, it isn't.

    The fear mongering, lie spreading, truth twisters known as the GOP/Tea party have been trying to nail President Obama on anything and everything since before he even took office, and they have yet to prove any wrongdoing on his part, but not for lack of trying, just for lack of culpability.

    The GOP/Tea party have shown everybody in the USA what they represent, a group of narrow minded bigots whose self imposed ignorance figures in perfectly with the way they would like to run this country, by forcing their so called morals and beliefs down the throats of every person in America.

    After being exposed as the American taliban that they are, the Tea party has even resorted to villifying those in their party who don't agree with their treason, who don't want the total destruction of the government, who don't fall in line like good little Nazi's.

    The GOP/Tea party has lost most of its support from businesses that now look to the more moderate Democratic party, this will continue because the far right will not stop its insane behavior until it is dead and buried, which it is fast approaching.

    So don't be upset when you see inflammatory articles touting Presidential scandal, that's just the death throes you're hearing from a small contingent of misguided racists, bigots, and ignorant idiots who are grasping at imaginary straws.

    The ACA (Obamacare) will become an overwhelming success, tens of millions of Americans will get healthcare for the first time, many more millions will see their insurance premiums reduced, at the same time that their coverage improves, and all the lies and scare tactics that the GOP/Tea party have been spreading will be exposed as the fearmongering propaganda that it is.

    Oh, and one more thing we'll see is the vast reduction of outrageous profiteering that the insurance industry, drug companies, and others have been strangling this nation with for decades. BTW, if you haven't figured it out by now, that is exactly why the ACA has been fought against so vehemently.

    So as I have said before, relax, sit back and watch the idiots run and scream in their futile attempt to stop the inevitable, it is very entertaining, and a well deserved end to those unpatriotic douchebags that would let America burn to the ground.

CRIMINAL CONSERVATIVES

   The recent actions of the GOP/Tea party have made it easier than ever to determine which of the two types of conservative you are.

   Of course when I say recent I mean the previous 5 years with an emphasis on the last 1 or 2.

   There are only two choices for you to pick from. Because if you still support the GOP/Tea party and its representatives after they have overwhelmingly proven just how diabolical and unpatriotic they are, how willingly they will throw this nation under the bus, how casually they will destroy the economy, and how unapologetically they will lie, deceive, and spread false rumors while subverting any and all election processes America was founded upon, then you MUST be one of the following:

   A: Ignorant
   If you are so blind deaf and dumb as to not have witnessed the incredibly obvious outrageous acts that the GOP/Tea party have attempted since 2009 and especially in 2013 then you have no place in voicing an opinion regarding ANY political issue. 

   Your uninformed and intelligence vacant position is not only unproductive and non helpful it is  very detrimental in any progress that this country might actually attain.  You should either get informed or just S.T.F.U.

   B. Criminal
   If you have actually been paying attention to the GOP/Tea party behavior I have listed above, and yet you continue to support them and their tactics then that means that you agree with them that "the ends justify the means".

   In the fulfillment of their treasonous agenda all bets are off. Any methods used whether legitimate or not are fair game. Regardless of how many Americans suffer from it's effects.

   Not only is that type of behavior anti-American, anti-democracy,and morally reprehensible it is also treasonous. Which makes it not only disgusting but also makes it illegal.

   If you vote for and support those who would take a solemn oath to preserve, protect, and defend this nation against all enemies foreign or domestic and those that you voted for were openly breaking those vows and yet you still support them that would be called criminal facilitation. And that would render you the same as them. A Criminal.

   So you see your choices are conveniently few. Are you an ignorant conservative or a criminal conservative?

THEY WON'T TRY THAT AGAIN

   So far my predictions have all been spot on, I said that the government shutdown would not lead to a default by the U.S., because President Obama would not allow it to happen, and it didn't.

   I really don't deserve much credit for that prediction because as I have stated over and over, every time the GOP/Tea party attacks President Obama, they have, without fail, ended up only making themselves look more pathetic and mean.

   That is why I refer to him as "Barack Houdini Obama", because just when it appears as though he is going to be snagged by the GOP scandal game, he quickly sidesteps their imaginary accusations. and they once again shoot themselves in he foot.

   Of course it helps tremendously that the reason they are unable to pin anything on him, is because he isn't guilty of their charges.

   So now, with the government re-open, many are concerned that we will just go through this same B.S. game again in 3 months, when the debt ceiling will need to be raised again, but I'll tell you right now, don't give it a second thought, you haven't a need to worry for even a second, here's why.

   In the next 3 months the website troubles that are currently causing problems for people to sign up for the ACA  will have been fixed, and Americans will sign up in mass numbers, proving that healthcare is an important issue with the public, and that they like what is being offered, to the chagrin of the GOP.

   Also, this last folly of Ted Cruz and his small band of extortionists has shown all America that the Tea party is nothing more than terrorist rebels, who would let this nation burn to the ground while they sang Dixie and roasted marshmallows in the fire.

   But the public also saw regular GOP members who went along with their rebel contemporaries, whether from conviction, or cowardice of their getting primaried, either way, what America saw was a political party that held this entire nation and everyone in it, hostage to their demands.

   The damage done to the conservative movement was immense, so much so that the Republican brand may not survive, and if it does, it will not have any resemblance to what it was.

  So with these things in mind, the GOP won't even think about rocking the boat again just months before the midterm elections, where previously it was a shoe in that their gerrymandered districting would allow them to continue to hold the house, but after all the dust has settled, it is being predicted that they may lose control of the house.

   Be assured that in the coming months that the GOP/Tea party will continue with their lies and false accusations, but even they aren't so stupid as to try a shutdown again.

WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED? READ THIS

  

To all those Americans who experienced any suffering due to the GOP induced government shutdown, those of us who who believe in an America without a need for terrorist type tactics empathize with you, and thank you, we are truly sorry that you were made unwilling sacrificial pawns of the GOP's radical Tea party wing. We wish for you a speedy recovery from any damage suffered, and a complete healing in time.

To those Americans who consider themselves conservatives and vote GOP, I can only assume from the polls that MOST of you did not want, nor approve of this shutdown, and that most of you did not like the idea of America being taken hostage by ANY party, for ANY reason. The vast majority of you I'm sure love this nation as much as any democrat, liberal, progressive, or independent does, and that you also understand that America was founded on principles that majority rules will dictate how we perpetuate this country forward, not allowing a small group of individuals to threaten to destroy our way of life if they don't get their way. Though they scream and shout that they are the true patriots, their words and actions are exactly what the founding fathers fought against, they are a cancer to your party, and they will be silenced, if you are at all concerned in the health and survival of the GOP as a integral part of the American political process, then you must rid yourselves of this cancer, and take your rightful place where you belong, alongside real Americans, fighting for what you believe in, not degenerating into a group of traitors bent on destroying our nation. America needs to have a voice for those who adhere to conservative values, but not from one holding a gun to its head.

To those tea party loyalists, I believe you love America, but you are not abiding by the American ways that have guided this nation for well over 200 years, your radical agenda does not promote the ideals set forth by our founding fathers, and the actions that are being implemented by your elected representatives are anything but patriotic. You may not like the way the government is being run, you may not like the current leadership in government, you have the right to feel that way, however, you DO NOT have the right to circumvent the American political process of changing things. You DO NOT have a right to threaten America with economic destruction and chaos simply because you are unhappy with the way things are. The actions and agenda of the Tea party have no place in this great nation, and as thus, the tea party will soon be swept away like so much dirt on the floor. Take yourselves away from this radical posturing and rejoin the ones who share your beliefs, but adhere to the American methods of change, voting.

AN ODE TO THE KOCH BROTHERS

You are not noble, you are not wise
You two brothers, are just despicable guys
Though you have lots of money, you are lower class
You're American traitors, and can both kiss my ass
You think you are kings, princes or dukes
But all you two are, are miserable pukes
You have all your gold, your silver and riches
Yet you both remain, two worthless bitches
You lack all integrity, style and grace
And it makes us all sick, to look at your face
You've paid for a party, who likes to serve tea
You try to control them, but it's easy see
You've created a monster, and it's turning on you
And that monster won't stop, whatever you do
It hates all it sees, and just wants to kill
Things that once pleased you, and gave you a thrill
The monster now threatens, what you hold so dear
An economy ruined, is your biggest fear
A second depression, much worse than the last
Your empire crumbling, your wealth fading fast
You might have regrets, for the misery you brung
But we will be cheering, the day you're both hung

WE'RE DOWN TO THE FINAL 5 IN "THE MOST HATED" (satire,sort of)

   Well, it has been an exciting competition, with a very impressive group of contenders, but it has now come down to the 5 finalists for the most hated.

   All of these finalists have garnered enormous amounts of hatred from all corners of America, but only one can hold the title of "Most hated". 


Michele Bachmann is a longshot to win overall, but her recent support of Ted Cruz has bolstered her hatred ratings across America, and in D.C.








Ted Cruz is a front runner to be the most hated, his ability to deceive all the people all the time seems to continue working on his weak minded supporters, but to the non-tea party public, he is just a vile and evil self serving narcissist, who will gladly allow this nation to melt down.









John Boehner has not only amassed large amounts of hatred from Democrats, but has also managed to garner a tremendous amount from his own party, And along with most of America's ire, he would appear to be the one to take the title.




 
The Tea party have a very special type of hatred most Americans hold for them,the same type they hold for any terrorist organization, they are bigots, racists, and un-American fools who are like sheep that let themselves be led to slaughter.






And finally we have the Koch brothers, Though usually found hiding under a rock, these two self appointed rulers of the United States have been ultra busy in employing their destructive and sinister agenda all across America, and especially in Washington D.C. They are perhaps the most evil, despicaple, and vile creatures to ever shame the name "American". They are the odds on favorites to win the title of "The most hated".

   There you have it, the top 5 degenerates money and power can corrupt, together they represent a large portion of what is wrong in America, and each of them are very deserving of being named most hated, but only one can win, who might that be? I will let you know when and if this ever ends.

AN URGENT MESSAGE TO MODERATE CONSERVATIVES

   If there are any sane, intelligent, reasonable, and patriotic Conservatives left in America, please come back to reality and do something about your political party.

   If you value the integrity, honor, and reputation of the Conservative movement, please reel in the lunatics that are currently claiming that title.

   If you would like the Conservative movement to continue as a viable political entity in this land, then please oust the un-American  traitors that are committing despicable acts in your party's name.

   If you honestly love this country, please contain those in your party who openly seek to destroy any semblance of government in America.

   The American(?) Tea party has not only hijacked your party, it is using extortion to keep the entire body of your elected legislators to agree with their outrageous demands.

   Your elected congressmen and senators are too scared of a small group of radicalized zealots who are funded by the Koch brothers and other mega wealthy sources, for them to do anything but fall in line, or they risk getting primaried at home.

   The Tea party has shown over and over that it is more than willing to destroy everything around it if they can't get their way, including America itself.

   They give lip service about being patriotic, while at the same time they are involved in actions that totally undermine the democratic process that this nation was founded on.

   Those Tea party individuals are under the control of the most elite 1/10th of 1% of the richest members of our society, and they don't even know it.

   So it's up to you, the moderate, well informed conservative to step up and reign in those that are destroying not only your party, but America as well

   The Democratic left and Conservative right have always had a balancing effect on each other, and this nation has grown and prospered throughout the years with that in place, but these Tea party terrorists threaten to dismantle every part of this country, and if they are not stopped soon, the GOP will feel the wrath of the nation and cease to exist.

   The normally apathetic of you must rise up and defend your values and beliefs, do not let the Tea party rule over you, they are the American taliban, and they will be defeated, it's up to you to decide whether or not the entire GOP goes with them.

ULTIMATE HATE

   While watching Ted Cruz spewing out lies on T.V., I recognized an emotion building inside of me that up to now could only be triggered by seeing and listening to 1 of 2 people, and I use the term "people" in the broadest sense of the word.

   Those two are George Bush Jr., and Dick Cheney.

   Even the utter loathing and disgust I experience  at the likes of Sarah Palin, Karl Rove, Grover Norquist, Michele Bachmann, Rush, Bill, Sean, or the Fox news channel can't stir the type of complete and total hatred I feel toward those two murderous traitors to America.

   And trust me, that says a lot.

   But now it appears that a third vile and unholy monster has arisen from the slime to test my ability to forgive and empathize .

   I recognized that old feeling after hearing Cruz spewing out his evil lies for about 5 minutes, as soon as I was imagining how enjoyable it would be if I could just reach my hand through the T.V., grab Cruz by the throat, and punch him in the face for about a week and a half.

   These are not emotions I enjoy feeling, I try very hard to not hate, but when I see somebody like Cruz, or Bush, or Cheney, destroying our nation in the fulfillment of their self serving evil agenda, I just don't seem to have any control of it.

   However, unlike the continual angst and anger I feel toward Bush and Cheney's ability to escape the justice they have coming to them (so far), I find the pure hatred that Cruz stirs in me, can be overcome by sitting back and watching the total destruction of the entire GOP that Cruz has effected.

   The pure pleasure I get from seeing the GOP/Tea party imploding into obscurity is enough to bring me back to optimism and good spirits.

   Just imagining the utter turmoil and infighting that is taking place throughout the conservative party brings a smile to my face.

   And I believe that when America finally hangs Bush and Cheney as the traitors they are, then I will finally be rid of this ultimate hate.

THANK YOU TED CRUZ AND YOUR TEA PARTY

   I have great news for all the folks on the left, you can now relax and unwind a while.

   Do you know that feeling of anger you get when hear some douchebag like Limbaugh or Hannity spewing out lie after lie?

   How about that feeling of total frustration you get when trying to explain anything logical and honest to a Tea Party ignoramus?

   Are you disgusted when you hear that the house GOP's are voting to repeal Obamacare for the umpteenth time?

   Does the word filibuster now make you sick?

   Are you tired of being treated like a complete idiot by the GOP and its ridiculous blame game?

   Well these few things I just listed, along with the many, many, many more despicable actions that the GOP has perpetuated can now be viewed in a new light by the Liberal/Progressive/Democratic voters.

   The reason we can take a different stance on all these GOP transgressions, is because Ted Cruz and the Tea party have gone so far over the limit with their absurd behavior, that conservatives can't even stand each other anymore.

   Even the most thick headed ignorant Republican can't help but see what a destructive and useless entity that party has become.

   The GOP/Tea party has managed to alienate just about every voting group in America, and the few inbred bigoted racists they have left as a base don't have the votes to elect a dog catcher.

   The complete implosion of the conservative party is a self inflicted event, they have managed to pull off something those of us on the left only dreamed about doing,destroying the lie machine known as the GOP.

   Whatever rhetoric and accusations that they spew out now are nothing but wasted breath, they do not possess one ounce of credibility in the eyes of the nation, and any trust of them has long since gone away.

   So, short of some earth shaking scandal involving every democrat in America, the left will easily win every national election for the foreseeable future.

   That is why I say, relax, enjoy the show, the GOP is very entertaining when they're like this, pretty funny too, I can hardly stop laughing at them and their televised squabbling, just like a reality show.

   But above all, remember to thank personally those who made this dream come true, Ted Cruz, and the American Tea party.

AN ODE TO THE TEA PARTY

Tea party tea party, I give you great thanks
Because  of the whacko's, that fill up your ranks
And lest I forget, the ignorant asses
That also exist, in your lunatic masses
And then there's the racists, the bigots and fools
You happily use them, as your destructive tools
A nation divided, is your ultimate quest
Where you make the rules, and screw all the rest
You say what you want, are the things that are right
But you want a country, whose people are all white
The message you spout, is abundantly clear
You love spreading rumors, panic and fear
With your hearts filled with hatred, it's easy to see
That your family line, is pure GOP
But your party crossed over, that invisible line
So consider this a warning, take it as a sign
America rejects, your sinister ways
As you will discover, in upcoming days
As your party dissolves, and the numbers get fewer
Your reps will be fired, and sent back to the sewer
Our government needs leaders, those that are heroes
And all that you've sent, are self centered zeros 
So why do I send, this big thanks to you
It's because you have done, things we couldn't do
You've turned all the people, against GOP ways
And your future is bleak, with limited days
So I'll thank you again, with these simple words
Don't ever come back, we don't want your turds

AN ODE TO TED CRUZ

He spews out lies, with accusing ways
That are so reminiscent, of the McCarthy days
He doesn't care, about the facts
He only cares, about who he attacks
He doesn't seek justice, or fighting foul play
He just likes us to hear, what he has to say
He will pander to all, of his gullible base
He'll shake all their hands, and lie to their face
Though Canadian born, he claims he's a Yank
But it's very apparent, he is only a skank
He has little integrity, and honor not a speck
But he will gladly accept, your donation check
Cruz will happily screw, his country and friends
For he thinks that the means, justify the ends
But his actions of late, have caused him to lose
The support of the ones, who once shared his views
They once thought him the answer, a GOP messiah
But now everyone sees him, as just a pariah

AN ODE TO FOX NEWS

They call it Fox, and say it's the news
But rumors and lies, is all that it spews
Fair and balanced, is the claim they make
But the facts that they use, are usually fake
They foster rumors, built on lies
There is no shame, in those lying eyes
Rupert Murdoch, a conservative ass
Owns that network, which has no class
He gives the word, and his minions hurry
Throughout the newsroom, like roaches they scurry
The people he uses, to deliver his lies
Are easy to loathe, hate and despise
There's Limbaugh Oreilly, and then there is Hannity
If you believe what they say, I question your sanity
They are bigoted racists, and their message is clear
We are here to alarm you, and fill you with fear
They care little for truth, and nothing for you
For their great love of money, they do what they do
But they aren't alone, there are many in their ranks
For Fox news is filled, with assholes and skanks
An America divided, is their unholy quest
To let the rich get richer, and screw all the rest
They service their masters, the wealthy elite
They do what their told, and bow at their feet
The balls in your corner, it's now time to choose
Do you believe in America, or believe in Fox news

I LOVE THE TEA PARTY

   Of course anybody who knows me would find this statement absolutely absurd, but I assure you, it is totally the truth.

   Here are the reasons I love the Tea party.

   I love how they openly obstruct any progress that might be made in Congress, allowing all American voters to clearly see that they don't give a damn about the average citizen, just their self centered interests, and those of their elite puppet masters.

   I love how they openly threaten to destroy this nations economy if they don't get their childish way.

   I love how they unashamedly pass laws with the obvious intent of denying voting rights.

   I love how they continually pander to their ever shrinking base by acting like fools, voting 40+ times to repeal Obamacare, holding unending hearings on issues everybody knows are absurd.

  I love how they present candidates and spokesmen that appear to be recently released from some home for the mentally challenged.

   I love how they refuse to show anything but total contempt and dislike for gays, women, immigrants, and all minorities.

   I love all these things the Tea party does, because it will insure that in 2014 and 2016, America will finally get a group of leaders in Washington D.C. that will put the concerns of the people first, not the rich, not the oil companies, not the banks, not Wall street, but the American people.


   And I will also love seeing the Tea party fade away into oblivion, where they certainly 
belong.

IN CASE ANY OF YOU CONSERVATIVES WERE WONDERING WHY....

   So, you think you have an idea of what we here on the progressive side are fighting for do you?

   Well, are you confident that you know exactly why it is we refer to you as racists or nut jobs?

   Allow me to make it crystal clear for you.

   We here on the left believe that every woman, child, and man, regardless of their religion, race, sexual orientation, or skin color has a God given right to be treated equally.

   We here on the left believe that we are indeed our brothers keeper, that there will always be people who will need assistance of one type or another, and that in a nation as abundantly blessed as this one has been, we feel that there is plenty to share, and that those who have reaped more rewards, should also share more of them.

   We here on the left believe that if something is good for the entire nation, it is also good for us, if every American can have the benefit of healthcare that is affordable, then we are all better off.

   We here on the left believe that it is much more important to be good stewards of our planet and its abundance, than to try and strangle out every last bit of value it contains, just to make a buck.

   Now I'm not saying that some conservatives don't also possess some of these beliefs, but overall, you just appear to be rather selfish and self centered, not really caring very much about anybody but you.

   But what makes us democrat/liberal/progressive types think that you are all either crazy lunatics or bigoted racists, is the people you choose to have as your representatives.

   They openly promote shutting down the entire government if they don't get their way, an act that would cause untold long term harm to every person in America.

   They brazenly pass state legislation with the admitted intent to deny large groups of people their right to vote.

   They block federal legislation that would create millions of jobs in America, as well as rebuild our aging infrastructure.

   They spend mass amounts of time and tax dollars voting over 40 times trying to repeal a law that will give millions of Americans healthcare while at the same time saving hundreds of billions of dollars for our country.

   They are absolutely opposed to anything that our President proposes, just to try and make him look ineffective and weak.

   They constantly spread rumors, and falsely accuse President Obama of wrongdoing, when they know full well he is innocent of their charges.

   They perpetually make thinly veiled remarks about his race, and his ability to lead America.

   These are just some of the reprehensible and evil things your chosen leaders act out on a daily basis, there are many many more.

   Along with all the things I have just mentioned, the conservative party also seems to have a great fondness for candidates who appear as though they just got released from the funny farm, or maybe they just escaped from there.

   From our perspective, anybody that not only is tolerant of representatives like these, but endorses them with fervor, must be one of two things:

   1. A bigot and/or racist who feels superior to others and desires that they should be afforded the recognition as such.

   2. A nut job who is too arrogant or ignorant to realize that the people they are voting for have little concern for them, but big allegiances to the rich and powerful elite in America.

   So in the future, when you can't figure out why someone is calling you deaf, dumb, and blind idiot, just refer back to this piece I've written, and you will understand.

TIME TO TRUST YOUR MECHANIC

   Let's say you bought a car in the year 2000, this was not a new car, but it looked like an ok deal, so you went ahead and purchased it.

   Within a few months that car was having some problems so you took it to a mechanic, after he was done looking at it, he told you that it would need some work to get it running right.

   You said, ok, I'll take your word for it, go ahead and fix it.

   A short time later your car was returned to you, it still drove a little funny, but the mechanic said that will go away shortly, so you said ok, and then you waited for the car to start working correctly.

   The car never really drove as well as you thought it should, and then after some months went by, your car had a major breakdown, you were in a panic, what am I going to do to get around you thought, but your mechanic said, leave it to me, I'll fix it up, everything will be fine, trust me.

   Again you left your car in the hands of your able mechanic, this time however, he told you that your car was in great danger of a complete breakdown unless you took major precautionary steps to stop that from happening.

   What could you do? You were stuck, you could not risk losing your car, so you said, well, if that's what you say I need to do, then I guess I'll just have to trust your judgement.

   When you finally got your car back, you noticed on the bill that he did lots of seemingly unneeded repair work, and the cost was way more than he told you it would be, but he just replied, when I started working on it, I saw that it needed more repairs than I thought it would, so I just did them.

   You were unhappy about these surprise charges, but what could you do? He said they were needed, and you thought you could trust him to have your best interest at heart.

   When you again got your car back, it seemed as though it was running worse than ever, for the next few years you found yourself constantly having to pay your mechanic more and more money just to keep your car on the road.

   Finally, in 2008, you had had enough, it was very obvious that your mechanic was not only inept at his job, but he was purposely soaking you for every penny he could steal from you.

   You found yourself a new mechanic, and when you brought him your car he said, there are a lot of problems with this car, mostly from your previous mechanics lack of skills and deceitfulness, but this car is worth saving, it won't be easy, but I will do everything I can to bring it back to good health.

   So you turned your barely running car over to your new mechanic, and right away he began to get it running right, he told you it would take some time to restore it completely, but that he would do the best he could.

   For the next four years you would take your car back to your new mechanic, and each time you got it back you noticed it was running better and better.

   But in 2013, you heard a strange noise coming from your engine, you took it back to your new mechanic and he told you that it needed to have some precautionary work done, but that it should not be too expensive for him to do.

   All of a sudden, you're paralyzed with fear, you think back to your old mechanic telling you that same thing, and even though your new mechanic has never cheated you, and that he has gotten your car running better than it has in many years, the trauma that you suffered from your old mechanic is giving you fear of being totally used again.

   If you haven't gotten the meaning of the story by now, it is this, President Obama feels that we need to show Assad and the others that using chemical weapons is intolerable, and a price will be paid if you choose to use them.

   The people of the United States are in a turmoil of emotion over the possibility of punishing Assad for his actions.

   They are afraid that this is only an excuse to get us into another conflict in the middle east, just as the Bush/Cheney administration had deceived and lied in order to fulfill their agenda to invade Iraq.

   The differences are miles apart, Obama has done all he could to end Americas wars abroad, he has shown nothing but integrity and honesty in the 4+ years he has been in office, and he has proven time after time that he can be trusted to make decisions that are in the best interest of America.

   So now we need to do just that, to trust him, to afford him the confidence he has earned, and that he deserves.

   The Bush/Cheney/GOP years caused most of our nations population to be distrustful of their government and its leaders, Obama is trying to restore that lost trust, so how about we cut him a little bit of slack, and not hold him accountable for the criminal behavior of the previous administration

  
   Our President has knowledge of circumstances we don't, so lets not be ruled by emotions, lets be ruled by intelligence and understanding, an understanding that Obama has earned the right of our trust at every turn, lets afford him that trust now.

WHEN WILL THIS NIGHTMARE EVER END

   In 2008 I breathed a very welcome sigh of relief when the Bush/Cheney/GOP criminal enterprise was finally voted out of power, to be sure they left a huge pile of crap that we had to deal with, but at least they couldn't keep harming this nation as they had been doing for 8 incredibly long and torturous years of pure misery.

   Obama has for the last 4+ years not only brought us back from the edge of an economic collapse that was engineered solely due to GOP actions, he has, against a GOP electorate thats only goal is to block all of his proposals, accomplished the following:

   1. Passed legislation that gives millions of people healthcare who previously were unable to get it.

   2. Turned around a jobs crisis from losing many hundreds of thousands of jobs each month, into gaining millions of jobs in the last 4+ years.

   3. Restored a housing market that was in a free fall of dropping values, into one that is showing increasing values and strength.

   4. He has ended a war started by the GOP for their own self serving purposes.

   The list of his accomplishments goes on, in spite of the total obstruction supplied by the GOP.

  At the present time, all of America is in a heated argument with each other on whether or not we should involve ourselves in the crisis that currently is happening in Syria.

   Party lines have been ignored so far, for the first time since Obama took office, but that could all change when the house votes on whether we will or won't allow a strategic attack on the Syrian regimes chemical weapons launch capabilities.

   Obama feels very passionately that a surgical strike on the Syrian regimes ability to continue chemical attacks on its own population is needed.

   Even though he feels that he has a constitutional right to carry this out on his own, he has submitted his proposal to congress for their approval.

   Regardless of what congress decides, there are two very important points to be acknowledged here, unlike Bush/Cheney, Obama listens to the people of this nation, and abides by their will.

   The second point is, that despite over 4 years going by, the Bush/Cheney legacy is still rearing its ugly head up.

   Because of the vast amount of lies they told, the unending amount of truth twisting they did, their ignoring of inconvenient facts, and their overall contempt of the American people, the GOP has succeeded in destroying peoples confidence and trust in their own government and it's leaders.

   Even though Obama has proven his integrity and honesty on all other issues, the American people have been so traumatized by the self serving acts of the GOP, that they still remain hesitant to believe what they are told.

   So for those that would say," it's been 4 years now, stop blaming Bush for your problems", I can only reply, pull your head out of your ass and try to pay attention, virtually every major problem that we are suffering with today can be traced back to the Bush/Cheney administration, and it's criminal behavior.

   I look forward to a time when I'm not reminded on a daily basis of just how much we got screwed over by Bush/Cheney/GOP.

WHY I AM NO LONGER A REPUBLICAN

   That's a serious statement, just what does it take to cause a forty year long GOP supporter to decide that he has been backing the wrong party?

   Mostly it took opening my eyes and ears to what was going on around me, and actually investing the time and energy to investigate the facts, instead of taking the word of someone who says they have only my best interests at heart.

   Except for an elite group of manipulators and the puppets they employ, I can easily imagine that the vast majority of GOP supporters are like I was, my dominant political position was "O.K., I'm busy, so go ahead and do the things you promised you would do, I trust you to do the right thing".

   My wake up call began in earnest with the Bush Jr. Presidency and has continued on to the present.

   While still giving lip service about protecting the Country and its people, Bush/Cheney/GOP were in full speed ahead mode to fulfill an agenda that was planned out long before, a very self serving agenda.

   What has taken place since can only be described as an all out assault on America by the GOP and the elite puppet masters that control them.

   You would have to be almost purposely ignoring the obvious facts to not see that the GOP is exclusively serving the masters who bought and paid for them, and that is not anyone with an income of less than 7 digits, not including the decimal point.

   Some people say," Well the Democrats are just as corrupt as the Republicans are ".

   WRONG !!!      WRONG !!!      WRONG !!!

   Yes, there are of course corrupt Democrats, but the immensely overwhelming evidence of political corruption is very easily witnessed belonging to the GOP, and they don't seem mind us seeing it.

   Apparently, the GOP thinks that as long as they continue spewing out lies and false accusations, that nobody will notice their deception and misdeeds.

   The belligerent arrogance they so readily display is a tell tale sign of their opinion of the intelligence of the average American citizen.

   They scramble to enact legislation that curbs the ability of minorities to vote in the name of reducing voter fraud, when no fraud exists.

   They redistrict the nation to ensure that the GOP 
candidates get overwhelming advantages.

   They openly state their intention to block any and all legislation proposed by Obama in an effort to make him look like a failed President.

   They spread vast amounts of propaganda trying to keep Obamacare from becoming a reality.

   They have ongoing congressional hearings trying to implicate President Obama in whatever scandal they can manufacture.

   The list of GOP abuses goes on and on and on.

   So while the GOP is busying itself in the pursuit of besmirching Obama and the progressive left, what's happening in Washington D.C.?

   ABSOLUTELY    NOTHING  !!!

   In their agenda fulfilling adventures, the GOP has been responsible for killing bills that would create millions of American jobs, rebuild Americas aging infrastructure, and provide oversight on industries that nearly destroyed the economy.

   Oh yes, and lets not forget that they were the ones responsible for the down grading of Americas bond rating for the first time in history.

   These are not deep dark hidden secrets that got leaked out, these are easily verified FACTS that anyone who wishes to can look them up online.

  That is todays GOP leadership, a group of bought 
and paid for flunkies that think we are all so stupid that we can't see what they are doing, and the sad part is, they are right, way too many people still believe that the GOP is fighting for the average American, when the truth is just the opposite.

   Unfortunately, the lies and propaganda that the GOP and its diabolical ally, Fox News constantly drill into the heads of their ignorant drone like followers seems to keep them from opening their eyes and minds to the reality of the situation.

   Nobody has their eyes closed now, due to the terrorist wing of the GOP known as "the Tea party", and its self appointed leader, Ted Cruz, we can all see pretty clearly that America and its people are the last thing these traitors care about, they are more than happy to watch it burn, because they can't get their way, just like a spoiled little child.

   Though I am disgusted with the GOP and their outrageous behavior, I take comfort in knowing that their devoted base is being constantly chipped away by their arrogance and deception, and that even with the vast amount of money supplied to them from their elite masters, winning an election will be next to impossible for them.

   At least, I hope it does.
