Old fashioned stink...update

When you look at the actions of the Republican party of late; the attempted repeal of a healthcare bill that if you really had the American people and the interest of the country's fiscal health in mind, would be in the best interest of all, the attack on a woman's right to chose, etc., etc, etc.  You would see, even at the State level, (at least where there is a Republican governor) a systematic dismissal of everything that would benefit that state, from federal funds for high speed rail, to funding for healthcare.  


As I sit here and look at this picture, it becomes more and more clear to me, as it has to so many others, that there is a grander scheme at work here.  The GOP and it' major political operatives such as Karl Rove, have been seething ever since this Black President took office.  Sure, the RNC had a token Black man running it's fund raising - but only as long as it took them to get back in some semblance of power.  Did you not notice that as soon as they won back the House, Michael Steele was out the door?  Even before they took back control, the party was grumbling about how he was handling things.  The truth is, this has NOTHING to do with the effectiveness of this president. In my opinion- IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH RACE!  


The good old WHITE boys are losing their grasp and they don't like it.  Everything they have posited in the past couple of months has to do with striking at the poorest folks, women and immigrants in this country.  There are some of those in that party who have even suggested that we, as a nation, go back to having only those who own land being able to vote.  Talk about disenfranchising!  But this is their last hurrah, their last hope for a power grab.  They will perpetrate as many out-and-out lies as they can get away with to get into office.  We have seen this play out in the Union-busting scheme Scott Walker is attempting in Wisconsin and others have thought about in Indiana, New Jersey, Maine and the like. 


So, let me ask the folks who put these governors in office...
When people move out of your state, or can't afford their homes, where will your revenue come from then?


What is it about truth?  Oh, yeah, according to German Philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer it pass through 3 stages:

 First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

I think we are in the second stage, and it scares the hell out of me, I just hope hard working Americans wake up to the scam being perpetrated upon them by those few Corporate magnates who wish to have things back to the way it was when they ran the country and the disparity between the rich and everyone else was even greater.  Back then, there was essentially no middle class.  The American Dream was just that, a dream...


I think what the Get-Over-Party is doing, stinks.
