Time To Buck Up Senate Democrats

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-creamer/every-democratic-senator_b_333634.html This article spells out what I said a couple of months ago: Every Democrat needs to vote against a fillibuster. Then they can vote their conscience. Harry Reid, here is your blueprint.

I'm Back!!!!!

I'm sorry for not having any posts since Sept.11. I have had some health issues that had cause me to be laid up for awhile. But I'm ok and doing fine. Look for posts beginning tomorrow.

Health Care Reform Now

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/11/opinion/11fri1.html The President made a very clear and convincing argument for health care reform. It's apparent that reform will come from the Democrats as the Republicans, despite the President's attempt at bi-partisanship, are committed to being the Party of No.

Shame On Niagara Wheatfield School District

It has come to my attention that the Niagara Wheatfield School District decided to not have President Obama's speech for children today. What a god damn disgrace!!!! I'd love to know the un-American, domestic terrorist idiot who made that decision. Who the hell do these people think they are??? There's a disturbing trend here with Niagara-Wheatfield. The school district bans the African-American President's speech and the Town of Niagara bans a mosque from being located on Military Road......Hmmmmm..see a pattern here.

I want to hear the explanation for why a speech that advocated the importance of education and personal responsibility was not heard by students in the Niagara-Wheatfield School District??? I have a friend who works in the NF School District and she told me the children of Niagara Falls saw the President's speech. Why were the kids in NF allowed to see and hear the speech and why not in Niagara-Wheatfield???? Could it be that there are more minorities in the NF School District??? Could it be that the administration of the NF School District is more patriotic than the terrorists running Niagara-Wheatfield???

I want to see if the tremendous local news reporters pick up on this. How many other school districts here in Niagara County banned the President's speech???? In an earlier post, I compared this place to West Virginia or eastern Kentucky. I guess Niagara-Wheatfield is the capital. What a goddamn disgrace!!!!! And I bet these morons sing "Proud To Be An American" and cry when they sing. Hypocritical bastards!!!!!!

U.S.A.: We Are Children of Barnum & Bailey's Circus

http://www.truthout.org/090609Z?n Bill Moyers hits this one out of the park. This summer has proven what I have thought all along: we have become a country of chicken hawks who love to beat our chests and say how we are proud to be Americans. Yet, our founding fathers would be disgusted with our "me first, to hell with every one else" attitude. It gets me sick when I see these "patriotiic" American's sing Lee Greenwood's "Proud To Be An American". They are usually bigoted, love it or leave it hypocrites. All of us who supported President Obama need to stand up for our country!!!!!! We need to have health care reform and we need it now!!!!1

Just When You Think You Have Heard It All

http://mediamatters.org/research/200909030013 The utter ridiculous baseless criticism of Prsident Obama's desire to reach out to school children in this country to talk about the value of education is just about all I can syand. In fact, for you neo-con nut jobs, your man Reagan addressed school children in 1988 and talked about the importance of cutting taxes!!!!!! This recent nonsense takes the cake for down right domestic terrorism and racism. Hmmm.....we don't want a President to value education. WHY????? And we want to know why this country is in the shape it's in. In fact, just recently its was reported that American children areway below other industrial countries in math and science test scores. And you want to know why all these kids can do is work at Wal-mart!!!! I can't take it anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Afghanistan

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/05/opinion/05herbert.html?_r=1 I have not commented on Afghanistan but as I read more it appears to me that this is a war we can't win.
