Election Day Massacre

Okay, the joke is over. Where the hell is that Ashton Koljack guy. Am I watching an episode of "Punk'd" on MSNBC. I cannot help but sit here and shake my head. This is a awful night, and who is to blame, those who did not go out to vote. That and the political pundits on Fox and conservative networks. This country has been moving forward the last two years, why do you want to go back. Who was it that caused this mess that we are trying to climb out of? Yeah, that's right. The republicans. They have no idea what they want to do to this country. Lawrence O'Donnell said it best, "they want to run this country into the ground." Now that they have power what will do? It is like when the Joker in Dark Knight described him chasing a car, "I wouldn't know what to do it I caught one." The republicans just caught their car, now the party of "NO" will become the party of "HUH?"

There is something sinister brewing with the republicans. There has been a lot of legislature that the democrats have tried to pass. Democrats have said they want to build jobs, and see the economy grow. They have tried to get this passed in congress multiple time. Now that the republican have power they are going to try and make themselves seem like the white knight? This doesn't add up. They want to repeal health care that people are still very misinformed about. Is it a crime for you government to force you to make the best for your self? NO! For the love of god no! What the republicans are after is power!!! They want to turn this country into a authoritarian state. Just look....

-They want to privatize the VA Hospitals
-Get rid of social security
-Get rid of minimum wage in thus making the job market uncompetitive and let companies pay you as little as possible.
-Want to cut taxes for the rich, and continue the "trickle down" effect
-Give breaks to big business, and big oil
-Make America a secular state. (An official religion country)
-Change our text books (ala 1984 to read what they want us to know)
-Allow deregulation to continue on wall street
-Destroy health care
-PRIVATIZE EVERYTHING!

They say they want a smaller government, but the last point is kind of alarming. A small government is one that republican like, where a lot of things go unnoticed and it is a very very free society, it's comparable to a controlled anarchy (talk about a contradiction.) This set of far right conservatives aren't so far right. They want to privatize everything. What does that mean, you have to pay someone to get something like VA care. It goes from the government, and money goes straight into someone else pocket. That person that person that is running a private organization has the right to refuse anyone. That is the exact opposite with what the current health care system.

Can you imagine if you are sick, and there is a cure, and easy cure. This sickness that you have if you don't get it taken care of can kill you though. The cure is expensive, and because you have insurance you will be able to live. What the "Obamacare" has promised that a health care provider can not drop you because you are sick. They could do that. Now they can't. Without this health care initiative the insurance provider could have dropped you, and you die. Those days are over. They want to change that.

I am not a man of religion, if anything I kind of find it stupid. Why? It restricts us from living a full life. Religion has chains that slow us down. Another thing that they have preached is to make this country a uni-religion state. More than likely Christianity. Just take a good hard look at Sarah Palin and something she said, "we all need to get more god in our life." It appears to me that she will be running in 2012 for president. There are dozens of religions in this country. There is no way you can say that your religion trumps all.

The funniest thing I have heard this past year is that the democrats are taking away our freedoms, and we are becoming a socialist state. First off, I can still buy a gun, I can voice my opinion, and so on and so forth. WE HAVE NOT LOST A SINGLE RIGHT SINCE OBAMA CAME INTO OFFICE, AND WON'T. I don't see any signs of socialism coming anywhere, but I am from the republicans. The darker side of socialism though. I can still say FUCK, I can still listen to the bands I want. Please tell me what rights I have lost.

I found this little slice of knowledge hysterical. The republicans want to cut more corporate taxes. I just wrote a paper where I talk about how cutting taxes will only lead to a prolonged recession. It happened in Ireland (read the blog below). To stimulate job growth, you just can't cut taxes more and more. Eventually you will loose revenue, an the government makes no money for basic services. Small business will not hire because of low taxes. They will hire only when there is a demand for the product(s) or service they offer.

Of course theses conservative idiots want to continue the an endless war, and want us to live in fear. It is scary that American have missed this all. Since when was it bad to be able to be an intellectual and be look down upon. This country was founded on smarts and free will. This political party is missing the point. Not only that they are missing a point of something they are preaching. It is really bad.

This country is going down. Just look at the model that is Arizona. Republican house, senate, and leader. What has happened here, massive budget deficit, and things are only getting worse. There is a lot of ad hominem going on here. They want to focus on "protecting the border" and playing the race card and wasting tons of money on this. Meanwhile our schools out here have fallen all the way to the worse in the country. There is no sign of this getting any better out here. Still they waste time not keeping an eye on what is going on. Correction... The republicans playing the immigration care is ad populist, it is preaching to a large crowd. It's actually both, anyway. Nonetheless the are out of touch of what needs to be taken care of. Someone once told me to take care of number one at home first before reaching out to fix other problems. That you could argue is immigration. Lets fix instate problems before we worry about something that is on the fringe.

The next two years in this country will be rough. Nothing will get through in congress, and nothing will get done. In 2012 we will loose our president, and we will see what has happened in Arizona. Just on a much larger scale. What the Americans did today was disgusting. they voted with the media, and not with what they truly believed in. OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES PEOPLE!!

That is all... "Good night and good luck..."-SS
