beats me

The Republican activist Supreme Court Justices one again demonstrated their disdain for a fair democracy where one person one vote used to matter. Indeed with their newest politicizing of the Republican mantra if you got money you count if you don’t your vote does not count the 5 Republican appointed Justices of theSupreme Court struck down limits Wednesday in federal law on the overall campaign contributions the biggest individual donors may make to candidates, political parties and political action committees. Sighting the value of wealth as a sign of a purer strain of democracy the Justices felt it was their obligation to permit money and more money to buy elections. The American way is for corporations to become citizens, pay fewer taxes, set agendas for the nation and to encourage monied donors to bribe potential candidates toward promoting the priorities for a very select few.

The Tea-Publican activist majority led state legislatures, realizing that one person one vote usually does not bode well for a party who hates people of color, the LGBT community, most women, the poor and unemployed have discovered ways to lessen the democratic process of fair elections and instead have limited voting days, polling places, invented fraudulent voter fraud stories and set impossible standards for those who do wish to vote. Gerrymandering alone did not do the trick to trick their constituents into thinking elections were fair and honest so tampering with the essence of democracy of fair and equal elections the activist Republican state legislators have created impossible road blocks to maneuver for those deemed unfriendly to a party of bias, bigotry, and religious Jihad. The Republican Party mantra is democracy when not in the favor of electing Republicans is useless and not really American enough.

Republican propagandists and Fox News pundits Bill O'Reilly and Charles Krauthammer along with Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) are now insisting that that the 7.1 million Americans to participate in the Affordable Health Care law are either erroneous numbers or similar to the news presented on FOX a figment of some bizarro imagination. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) is presenting yet another budget minus the Affordable Health Care Act. Speaker of the House John Boehner insists that there still will be more action taken in his House to stymie, or cut completely the Affordable Health Care Act. Rick Perry Governor of Texas would rather see his citizens stay sick, be in pain or die at an early age then provide any possible relief to the cost or access of affordable health care. All Tea-Publicans, more concerned with how the wealthy live in this nation and all resentful that in America all people should be created equal.
And still I hear that there is an above average bet that during the 2014 mid term elections the Tea-Publicans have a chance to maintain their majority in the House and retake the majority in the Senate. How in the world could anyone who cares about quality of life of not only the rich, not only the white Evangelical, who has even an inking of the pursuit of happiness and the liberties of minority vote to permit men and women into office whose only agenda is to deny, destroy and redefine democracy?
