GOP’s Lamest Generation Encourages Domestic Terrorism
The so-called Greatest Generation is striving to become the Lamest Generation. Power-crazed conservatives in the GOP spearheaded by John McCain have thrown their lot in with extremist domestic terrorists and will leave a weakened legacy for future generations. A generation of people once regarded as heroes are risking their reputations and honor in order to play dirty politics and screw over the American people.
The GOP has ceased to be a party of patriots. They have been waylaid by extremist radicals that threaten the security of America.
Sarah Palin, John McCain and John Boehner are playing a dangerous game. They are encouraging violence, aggression and armed revolt over a domestic issue that should be a slam-dunk: healthcare for all Americans.
How did we get to this? How did the Greatest Generation turn into the Lamest Generation?
John McCain used to be an honorable war hero. He successfully portrayed himself as a maverick, populist figure. Seeing his behavior now, I thank God that he did not ascend to the Presidency.
Why does the Greatest Generation hate America?
Why does the Sarah Palin and the GOP encourage violence and domestic terrorism?
Why does the GOP want to derail the greatest piece of legislation to come out of Washington D.C. in fifty years?
There is an opportunity to create a lasting and meaningful legacy. Both houses of Congress can show future generations that a post 9/11 America can work together. Both houses of Congress worked together in the immediate months and years after 9/11, but once the Republicans lost power, then suddenly the time for America “working together” and bi-partisanship became a side note. A literal punch-line. Talk about sore losers.
The Republicans have incessantly stoked the fires of fear and hatred. It lost them an election in 2008, yet they continue to feed a reign of domestic terror, bigotry and hatred. The Republicans in the GOP is no longer the Grand Old Party, they have lost their way and as long as they advocate violence and rage all they will accomplish is driving people away from the Republican party.
Extremists of any type should be shunned, but for a group of people who mandated endless war to help foreigners - without a payment plan, it is ludicrous that anyone is AGAINST any plan that will help all Americans! There is no price too great to guarantee security for America. That’s just one of the stories they told the America to promote their underfunded war.
In this story in 2006, they couldn’t even account for $4 BILLION dollars but they’re afraid to spend a nickel to help you and your children.
This is wrong.
It is wrong for the Republican party to promote hatred.
It is wrong for the Republican party to stand by while fellow Americans are attacked.
It is wrong for the Republican party to attack the future of America.
The Republican party has lost their way. It’s time for America to, “Just Say NO!”
Republicans don’t love America anymore. Shame on John McCain, shame on Glenn Beck, shame on Sara Palin, shame on Michelle Bachmann, shame on John Boehner, shame on Rush Limbaugh…the list goes on.
Vote the Republicans out.
Vote them out now.
Colin Powell Endorses Obama
Former Secretary of State General Colin Powell (ret.) outlines his reasons for crossing party lines and voting for Barack Obama:
Powell’s points:
McCain - Failin
The McCain - Failin ticket is getting desperate. They have now officially accused their opponent of links to terrorism. Seriously. We knew that this political season would be a rollercoaster ride. We knew we would be bombarded with negative ads. We even knew that Sarah Failin was nuts. Hell, just look at those goggles she sports.
But we didn’t REALLY expect her to sink so low as to attempt to link the opposing ticket to terrorism. Sarah Failin is insane, this cannot be denied. These people aren’t mavericks, they’re not even Goose or Iceman, the folks on the McCain - Failin ticket are merely political shills who are trying to appease the people before the election. It’s not working.
Instead of proposing any ideas to get America out of this current war, this economic disaster, the ongoing recession, the loss of respect of Americans on the global scale, the McCain - Failin ticket resorts to name-calling.
That’s not a tactic America needs. McCain - Failin just need to go home. Leave the election to the only people in this election who actually care about the American people: Barack Obama and Joe Biden!
Go Joe!
The Vice-Presidential debate highlighted one thing: Joe Biden will answer the actual questions and Sarah Palin will not. Sara Palin routinely ignored the questions. She just doesn’t get it.
When confronted with a question, her reply was, “Maverick! Maverick! Maverick!” or “Watch out for taxes”!
Her strategy was clearly to simply solidify the base. The Republicans have completely bailed on this election. All Sarah Palin did was tell America that rich, white men need to be in charge. Sarah Palin didn’t help McCain’s cause. She just revealed herself to America to be a mouthpiece for Republicans.
Sarah Palin doesn’t get America.
Sarah Palin doesn’t get the constitution.
Sarah Palin doesn’t get the role of the Vice-President.
Sarah Palin doesn’t understand what the American people want.
Sarah Palin is the most dangerous person in the 2008 election cycle. If she somehow blunders her way into the Executive Branch then America will be doomed.
Joe Biden can work with people.
Joe Biden understands America.
Joe Biden knows what the American people want.
Joe Biden understands the role of the Vice-President.
Joe Biden is the most competent Vice-Presidential candidate on the ticket for 2008. Joe Biden is the best Vice-Presidential candidate we have seen in several decades. Joe Biden will fight for the American people and not for giant corporations. Oh, and Joe says, “God bless America!”
The Real McCain
This video is a nice compilation of McCain’s official stances leading up to our current economic disaster and how he reacts now after the disaster has struck. The only thing certain: McCain has no idea what to do with the economy whether pre- or post-bailout.
Obama Rocks McCain
On Friday, September 26th, 2008 the first presedential debate occurred for the 2008 election cycle. Obama spoke directly, clearly and didn’t repeat himself or liberal talking points. He was clear, concise and did simply repeat trite vitriol from his campaign commercials. Obama addressed the moderator’s questions and gave cognizant responses to McCain when necessary.
McCain was easily flustered and appeared to be on the verge of rage several times. He was belligerent and during the debate he didn’t look at Obama even one time. He spoke over both Obama and the moderator. His responses were usually clear, but some of them simply didn’t follow the questions.
Recent polls are showing Obama pulling ahead in key states. After Obama’s performance in tonight’s debate he should start to pull ahead in all states.
McCain’s lame campaign thrives on fear of taxes and terror. In the words of George W. Bush, “Fool me once, shame on. Shame on you. Fool me. You can’t get fooled again.”
Bush fooled us twice. We’re not going to get fooled again. Drop out McCain, you’re rhetoric is tired and expired.
McCain Weaseling
We haven’t even had the election yet and McCain is trying to get out of doing his job. Right now, that means giving voters a close-up look at the kind of person he is. McCain is claiming he is going to cease campaigning, postpone the debate, and head to Washington, DC to help fix the problem. A concept he doesn’t fully grasp.
Here’s the problem: McCain’s deregulation push allowed banks to privatize investments. Without government oversight Republicans ran wild with my money, your money, and their investor’s money. Republicans casually threw around billions of dollars with no plan, and now they are proposing to use $700,000,000,000 (that’s BILLION) of taxpayer money to bailout the very system they rabidly created.
My 401k has lost 12% this year. If things continue they way they are with free-wheeling Republicans spending my money on wars, coke and prostitutes then the only thing that will be certain is I won’t have a penny for retirement in 2035.
Bill Clinton outlined our economic situation last night on The Daily Show:
Bill Clinton explores this election more fully, endorses Barack Obama and outlines Obama’s keys to victory:
We need independent and undecided voters to rally to the President who will work for you, not for Republican special interests. We need to get everyone we know to vote for Barack Obama. There’s no doubt that McCain is not the answer. McCain will only bring more troubles to the middle-class, period. You just can’t trust a guy who doesn’t know how many houses he owns and thinks middle class Americans make just under $5 million a year.
