Cory, you gave me a good laugh. We all know how much stock the Republican party and the neo-cons have put into the Native American community. We all know just how strong their environmental commitment is (One of Bush's last executive orders was one allowing the builders of a project to determine if their plan will negatively impact endangered species).
Why not just come out with a post that says "Everthing Obama has done, is doing and will do is awful and will ruin this country" and save yourself 3 years, 10 months worth of postings?
Once again, I would really like to see the cons come up with some ideas rather than just yelling "no, no, no!" like a two year old having a tantrum.
Thank you so much for my opening sentence.
Everything Obama has done, is doing , and will do, is awful and will ruin this country! The question is..does his adminsistratin have 3 years, 10 months ahead for further postings...I think not. In a perfect world he will resign from the job, take two weeks severence and move to a cave in the rockies and live happily ever after with.....Chris Matthews.
Seriously, I can't think of any legislation that has gone through the Congess that attracted zero "aye's" in the House other than the 1993 vote during the Clinton Administratin on the budget that was followed by that memorable voting result in 1994 when the democrats lost control to the republicans. "From my lips to Gods ears"...the arragance shown by Pelosi, Reid, and the aloof Mr. Obama will be similarly rewarded.
Obama keeps talking about bi-partisanship the way a religious zealot talks about bi-sexual..."love thy neighbor if he is a man but not in my neighborhood". Within six weeks time, every republican submission for the stimulus bill was eliminated from the legislation (we won..claimed the street activist President), the country has been put on a course that will destroy the healthcare system for 300,000,000 Americans with a "european style Big Government national healthcare) to give free healthcare to 15% of the population and with a "health czar or czarina" whose bureaucrat G-12 employees will tell your doctor, and more importantly mine, what the diagnosis and therapy for our medical problems will be, or face penalties. Enjoy the waiting period for elective surgery, x-rays, bone replacements currently enjoyed by the people of the United Kingdom.
Within six weeks time even Governors of hard pressed States are turning down billions of dollars from the massive spending program disguised as a "stimulus" since there are more strings attached to the money than strands in a spiders web, strings that will eliminate the caps on welfare enacted during the Clinton era, with a little pressure from the republican Congress, and saddle already bankrupt States with massive ongoing costs after the "stimulus" money runs out in two years!
The business of government IS government...and the business of business IS business. WTF does Pelosi, Barney Frank, Reid, Rangle, Dodd, Leahy, et al (sorry I left out the intern in the White House) know about the "business" of getting our country out of the financial and economic mess we are in?
Neocons, Bushits, wingnuts (as we have been lovingly described by thoughtful libs) would more easily stimulate business by giving business incentives to hire instead of increasing taxes on business owners, freeze any thought of putting a tax on carbon emissions, pushing through anti-business labor laws by taking away the secret ballotof workers, and maintaing the highest corporate tax rate in the world, and eliminate the outragesous spending in earmark laden legislation. something that I seem to recall this fellow Barack ranted on and on in the primaries as well as recently. Not some people here, but those concerned moderates in the middle of the body politic that believed and gave "change" their vote in November must truly feel betrayed.
On these issues neocons and republicans would be proposing contrary legislation. Your right..I'm really too funny for words. Enjoy the depression. A hungry stomach is bi-partisan" and, btw, there are only 18-19 months until the next poll of the American people.
