DON'T KNOW WHO TO VOTE FOR?

If you don't know who to vote for maybe this will help.  If you dislike tax cut for 98% of Americans (the middle class), If you dislike 22 straight months of job growth, If you dislike having health care for all Americans, If you dislike that he got Bin Laden, If you dislike that 911 fire fighters and police now have health care coverage, If you dislike the PAID FOR payroll tax cuts for the middle class, then you probably want to vote for Obama.  If on the other hand you LIKE UNPAID FOR tax cuts for the rich, tax increases on the middle class, if you like wars, if you like spending our tax dallors in the middle east and 0 investment in our country, if you like a GOP party that holds the country hostage, if you like a party that when in power went into two wars and didn't want to lose the next election so they funded it with emergency funding, and let the debt grow and grow and grow, if you like the party that signed a pledge to Grover Norquist and ignored their pledge to their country, Then the Republicon party is for you. 

Take Our Country Back!

"We need to take this country back".  You have probably heard that a lot lately.  Especially with the Republican Primary season in full swing.  Well, I agree.  Hard to believe you say, since you know I am a Liberal Democrat.  But again I say, I agree.  I would like to return to a time where dad could go to work and mom could stay home and take care of the kids.  What kind of a world would we have if we could get back to that.  A world where parents don't have to send their children off to strangers to take care of during the day.  A world where mom or dad could work a five day week, have week ends off, and a two week vacation in summer.  A world where if you are really good with your money you could afford a home and a new car.  A world where children had a stable home, and a feeling of safety.  Why did all these things disappear.  How did we get to a place where both partners MUST work just for the basics of an apartment, food, clothing, a car, and utilities.  My belief is the  message from a certain group telling the 99% that their work is not valued, and how lucky they are to have a job for the last forty years is a huge problem.  That same group continually putting out the constant message that workers wages were too high and needed to be lowered.  A message that benefits were too good and that pensions were too expensive.  All the while profits grew and grew, and the pay of the top echelons of the corporate ladder were paid at higher and higher levels.  Where perks, bonuses, and stock packages, worth millions and millions became the norm.  At the same time there was the constant drone of how evil unions and workers are that stand up to corporations for better wages, benefits, and working conditions.  Since the union came into existence there has been a continuous war to end them.  Imagine if we could get back to a time where one spouse could make enough at one job for the other to stay home and raise children to be outstanding and upstanding members of society.  I believe this is what the 99% is all about.  A return to a more just society, where profits are NOT the ONLY end game.  Where all of society is raised up when business is successful.  The view of people like Mitt Romney who said in the debates last night that big dreams of attaining goals like space exploration or a space station on the moon were just wrong.  I disagree; the thing that makes this country great IS dreams.  Dreams for a society where profits and work are tied together for the benefit of all.  Where profitable companies produce goods that their employees can afford to purchase.  This kind of world would mean MORE business not less.  Henry Ford had it right when he paid his employees enough to buy the cars Ford was building and look what happened.  Detroit became a powerhouse of economic growth.  That would be a goal and a dream to aspire to again.  Multinational corporations have NO allegiance to America or Americans anymore.  Their allegiance is to bigger and bigger profits.  The trickle up,(actually gusher) of wealth to the 1% has degraded America not made her stronger and it is time to "TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK:.
