Listen and Learn.... Vote for Your Interests, Not the Rhetoric

Looks like the GOP leaders of the last 15 years, you know the NeoCons are finally understanding what it is that they have loosed upon the American people.  They have paved the way for the really radical elements of the right to emerge as the front runners for their party.  Now, don’t get me wrong, most of the positions that these fringe candidates hold are those that the NeoCons hold as well.  The difference is that the NeoCons don’t believe that you can get elected on those stances.  They don’t want to bare their conservative souls to the American People and let us actually see what they stand for.

So you see Karl (sig heil) Rove out there saying he supports the GOP Candidate, but that she really has said some crazy stuff, or Al Demoto calling down a Rep from his state making racial slurs on Fox News.  The message to these guys they are trying to get out is “Hey, we agree, but you have tone it back a bit or the voters won’t like it and you won’t be elected.”  Just another example of dishonesty by this GOP.  It truly isn’t your Father’s GOP, nor my father’s either.  It’s the guys who grew up thinking that it’s OK to cheat as long as you don’t get caught, that cheating on tests in school just meant you didn’t have to study much, freeing yourself for more important things like partying or that they were the chosen ones and they can get away with anything they want.  You know who these guys are. Some of them are in jail because even without regulation they still managed to break the law and others were disgraced in office, and some are the whack jobs on the GOP side of the ballot.

Really listen to what these guys are saying.  John Boehner and Mitch McConnell can’t support keeping the Bush Tax Cuts if they don’t include the tax rates for those earning over $250k?  what they are really saying is that unless my buds on the Boards of Directors get to pay themselves exorbitant salaries and benefits without having to pay a fair tax, then nobody gets a tax cut.  I.e. we only care about the rich.  When they say we can’t afford to continue with unemployment benefits, what they really mean is we want to give that money to our corporate friends and you all can eat off food stamps and live in cardboard boxes.  And the list goes on. Listen and think and you can’t help but see the hypocrisy and lies that these guys are feeding you.

Beck, of punditry renown;
 Wore a wig and big shoes whenever in town;
He’s not much of thinker;
More like a tinker;
And certainly looks like a clown!

If right means correct I amend,
That left must mean much better,  then,
The right is mistaken
And the left is left achin’
For the best for the rest of us men.

What’s good for big business they say
Is what’s good for you too, today,
While business gets rich,
You all can just bitch,
