Debate this!


Debate this...

Is it more patriotic to keep the WW2 memorial open then the Head Start Program? If you gotta give in it is more American to permit visitation to a memorial or feed hungry women and kids? Is it more patriotic to honor the men and women who fought to keep this nation free but less so then to starve the children and grandchildren of those hero’s by keeping them poor and ill?

The President says place a clean resolution vote on the floor of the Congress. John Boehner says there are not enough votes to pass it. The President says try it and see if it flies or fails. Listen to FOX News or Limbaugh Lies Live and discover the President is called a Commie/Socialist for asking that democracy work and Boehner is called  a Patriot for denying democracy be practiced. 

Is compromise considered my way or else, or is it trying to find a solution? Is the Constitution just a prop to demonstrate just how good you look covered in a slimy version of red, white and blue or the key to keeping America free? Are free elections the cornerstone of America where one person one vote counts and the total of that count is how we govern this nation. Or is ignoring the one person one vote system replacing it it with tantrums, shutdowns and closures the new way America should be governed?

Has this nation gone bonkers because a group of gerrymandered, fear mongering Crusaders for Christ politicians most who have never studied a civics or government course in their small minded ignorance and bigotry have bullied both the Senate and Congress? Have the really wealthy 1% the puppeteers, the mad scientists who created this new class of of classless politician found happiness in their relentless anti Obama, anti democracy, keep ‘em poor, we versus they monsters or are they too realizing that no matter how much money you pour into the dumb they will still remain stupid. Will the American voter, (the ones who will still have access to voting booths) be just as guilty to voting for the same bunch of goons who care little for democracy caring a whole lot more for tyranny? Or will we finally come to our senses and discover that  if we don’t stop the Tea Party terrorists, the activist Supreme Court Justices, the Koch Brothers and their cohorts from Wall Street that it will not be the Socialist Kenyan president who brings this nation to its knees but the folks dressed in tri-cornered hats carrying abridged versions of the King James Bible in their pockets next to their holsters and ripped pages of a Constitution for the Confederate States Of America? And dear God, why is there even a debate on closing the government or not???
