Message to All Americans:
I hope all Americans are watching the evil that walks among us going under the name of the Republican Party. I truly hope you are observing their actions, disdain, disrespect and disregard for Americans.
This latest insult has to do with extending Unemployment Insurance for 2.5 million of Americans. Somehow they have forgotten that these unemployed Americans are unemployed because of their actions, and the illicit behavior of an administration gone mad, under an individual who took a country that was enjoying a surplus, thanks to his predecessor, and turned it into such a crushing deficit, that some means of employment have completely disappeared.
It is only the latest in a series of egregious acts against Americans under this political party. Nixon’s Watergate springs to mind. The undermining of US farmers under the Reagan, not to mention the air traffic controllers issue. And who can forget the horror that was Katrina and the fiddling about that happened as a result of that. Then of course the entire collapse of Wall Street and the discovery that mortgages on American homes were being securitized and sold outside of the country.
Now, because of their deliberate deregulations, favoritism, cronyism, and under the table deals that have led to the most crushing economic downfall since the great depression, hard working Americans - many of whom are in career retraining programs (because their original jobs actually no longer exist)- are being made the pawns by the Republicans who think it okay to add insult to injury by denying them the means to sustain themselves while they try to get their lives back.
I hope you remember who these people are when it comes time to vote, which is coming up in less than 194 days. I hope you remember that President Obama is working to keep rectify the wrongs these miscreants have caused. I hope when you go to the polls you make sure that those individuals who thought it interesting, okay and amusing to filibuster over the lives of millions of America, never, ever again walk the halls of Congress.
I hope you exercise your right as Americans and vote them out of office, and replace them with people who will act in your best interest, not their egos. VOTE THEM OUT!
The tragedy is that these people have sullied the party that was once the pride of President Lincoln and America. As they say in the movie, any resemblance between them and the original party is purely coincidental, I.e. in name only. IT’S TIME TO VOTE THEM OUT!!
While America is a two-party country, we should never ever have a situation whereby a party that constantly, continuously and consistently cause stress, pain, and debilitating poverty for their fellow citizens, while they sit around and thumb their noses at them. They should not be allowed to get a pass. IT’S TIME TO VOTE THEM OUT!!!
Time to vote in people who represent us, and then make sure they do what we need them to do. It is also time to support those who are working hard for us, and make sure they have the backing they need from us.
We deserve to have this country work for all of us, but there are some of us who have decided otherwise. They are sitting in the seats in Congress that could and should be occupied by individuals who really are there to help America and Americans be greater, and to realize their highest and best. LET’S VOTE THOSE WHO CARE ABOUT AMERICANS AND THEIR WELL BEINGS IN; AND VOTE THOSE WHO OBVIOUSLY HAVE NO REGARD FOR US OUT.
In the meantime, I strongly suggest you contact your Congressman or Congresswoman and let them know that you are mad as hell and you’re not going to take this any more. Let your voice be heard today, and your vote be felt tomorrow.
Stay Blessed &
ECLECTICALLY BLACK
