The Carville-Greenberg Memo

All of us learn in school and life, whenever we show wrong thinking, or wrong behavior, we know that we must change. That crowd only knows one note and how to beat a dead horse.

ALL REPUBLICANS ARE FUCKING STUPID

Conservatives simply don’t understand that the majority of America has permanently passed them by, renounced them. As a group, they cling to a white, male, southern protestant past and inexplicably believe that if they can only find the right words to express their intolerance for the rest of us they can reform us.

The rest of us can take hope from the fact that their numbers dwindle daily. Soon they will be nothing but an annoyance to the challenge of building a better future and soon after that they will be nothing but a chapter in the history books. Until then, we need to stand our ground and call out the fear that nourishes them along with the intolerance they practice wherever we see it.

Why don’t we educate the public instead of using platitudes ourselves? We could do, as Perot did, use charts. We could use intelligible analysis to reveal how the Republi-cannot use Social Spencerism [ so- called Social Darwinism- that slap at him]. We could delve into how they use bait and switch: they claim that they want to give the taxpayer back some of her money that she can use better than the federal government, but really means she ends up with less buying power by paying more for health insurance and so forth. Their medical plans would do that. Call them then the bait and switch party.
Let’s stand for the living wage-$ 15 an hour for those working for large corporations! James and Stan, why not? Poll about that. Get the economic analysis therefor. We can erase poverty!
We can take other measures to improve our Great Society based on the New Covenant!

Are their heads up their arses for the warmth, or the view?

Rubio should learn to “say it, not spray it” in his speech. I thought it was hysterical, and yet, not so funny considering that this is the kind of people we have running this country. God help us!

The republicans have been confused every since Regan’s trickle down economy tax scheme failed. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and hoping for a different outcome. Unfortuately for the republicans, they keep thinking that if only we gave more money to the rich, the economy will turn around. It just ain’t gona happen republicans. Wake up!

All the Republicans that signed the pact or swore an oath with Grover Norquist, are trying to live up to the pact they signed. If Mark Rubio is the partys savior then they are in real deep trouble. All that Rubio is trying to do is get all Spanish speaking people to vote for his party, but his party does not realize, just like him that these people may speak the same language, but their heritage, and cultures are different, so once again the Republicans are doing what they do best not finding out about the people they want to vote for them and these people know this and they will not vote for these phonies.

I understand the concept of having speechwiriters hone one’s ideas, however, it appeared that Rubio’s speech was not just honed, it was totally scripted by someone other than him. He read the whole deal. He isn’t the first R to do that, of course, but he actually looked embarrassed (I think the sweating was a product of saying things to a camera that he really didn’t believe himself) as he hurriedly tried to get through the standard GOP vitriol.

Back when Reagan began his “Trickle Down (his leg)” empire, the Dems really got shellacked in the polls. We all thought our party was dead, or on life support. To speak well of us, we tried to move our party platform back from the far left to the middle and in doing so, we able to rebuild. We first, however, had to recognize and admit to ourselves that we had strayed too far off center. We didn’t try to find a new way of saying the same things–we actually tried to find out what the American people wanted.

If the Republican Party wants to get back in the game before going the way of the Dodo, they will have to reconnoiter their current path as the “party of stupid” and look back to the middle. And not just by finding more up-beat ways of saying exactly the same crap. It would be new and different for them, I know, but they may find themselves the newest extinct mammals on this planet if they don’t evolve.

What is clear about the GOP is nothing has changed. They are not only the Party of “Stupid,” they are the Party of “superficial.” Just like the king in “The Emperor’s New Clothes” the GOP think words alone will make the difference, but to most everyone else all that is seen or heard is the same old GOP with the same old tired, untrue story.

People to start with Marco Rubio is NOT a Cuban persay He was brought here as a very young child before the Cuban Revolution and the take over by Fidel Castro and most of the people that fled pre Castro had some money that they took with them before Batista clamped down, as he says he still lives in the same neighbor hood that he and his parents have lived in since they came to the United States, then they had to have money how else could they afford to live in a home worth $650,000 and he has had the home on the market for months and still cannot sell it because the neighbor hood i not rated for that high of a priced home, he is a fucking hypocrite and secondly he is against immigration reform because Cubans that flee Castro’s Cuba only need to reach American shores and they automatically are allowed to stay in the United States and the process for them is easier to stay here while the Mexican, Hondurian, Equadorian, and any of the other Spanish speaking countries are considered immigrants subject to being sent back to their respected countries if caught here with out legal papers, that was a gift given to any Cuban after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion by then Prsident Kennedy, Kennedy had promised the Cubans to back their attempt to try to over throw Castro and then at the last moment he backed off when Kruchev threatened world war if the United States got involved in the Cuban invasion and that’s another story called the Missile Crisis, anyway Marco loves his neighbor so much that he can’t wait to sells his house so he can move to the DC area. Yes I watched his rebuttel and all he did was repeat the same old policy that the Republican have been saying for the last 30 years and not advancing the country, they have no new ideas they just want to keep on milking the same old cow since it’s been so good to them and anyone that tries to help the people get up off their knees is a Socialist, Muslin lover, Communist, or unAmerican, the sad part is that they have so many Red Necks convinced they are helping them is unreal, you know the Cubans have a way of convincing their people of doing the things they want them to do, take for instance although they pay them the lowest wages they can get away with in construction, they get no complaints because at the end of a project the bosses throw the workers a party, of a whole roasted pig,Yuca,Black Beans, White Rice, Salad, and, all the Beer they can drink and the workers go for this sell out, never mind that their family at home get none of this, you see Cubans come from a two Caste system, in Cuba the poor always stay poor and the Rich always control the money, that is the kind of upbringing Marco Rubio believes in and the Republican Party suits him to a “T”,

People before you start making fun of Rubio running for President in 2016 remember they also said there would never be a Black man sitting in the White House and we got Obama, I personally would never vote for a Republican much less Rubio but stranger things have happened, someone please correct me if I am wrong but I remember as a younger person the people in Tallahassee, Fla. always complaining about the South getting a raw deal when it came to Washington Politics, back then they had a name for the politicions in Northern Florida I can’t remember what they were called but back then there was always the saying one of these days the South will rise again, well people the South has not risen but the ole boys from the Southern States have finally secretly gotten together and today you have the end results radical Republicans and their offshoot the TeaParty and they are making the country pay for their perceived mistreatment by the North and they learned all of the political dirty tricks and they know if they lose their grip they will be doomed for a long long time and they are helped by conservative Democrats who have been doing the same thing as the Republicans, if ever this country is going to heal and get back to doing the work of the people there will have to be a wholesale house cleaning of both Republicans and Democrats and sad to say I don’t see that happening anytime soon. The Republicans you know who they are, they haven’t tried to hide it but, the Democrats are a different story, they have been sneaky and like the snakes they are, they have been pulling their shit under cover yet always maintaining their true allegience to the Democratic Party, every now and then they show themselves by voting against issues that may effect them, some Democrats may take offense to what I am saying but I’ll call a spade, a spade no pun intended. There is nothing worst than a treacherious back stabbing bastard and we have a few in our party, or a lot of the things the Republicans have pulled lately they wouldn’t have gotten away with if all demos were working together, a good example is that how come when the Republicans passed the law outlawing Unions in the State of michigan and only one Democrat wasn’t there to prevent it, if it was a party thing why didn’t 4 or 5 go to the convention quite convenient wasn’t it, people the only way this country will fall is from within.

What I truly do not understand, is that there is any sort of rebuttal at all when our President gives his State of the Union address. Especially when the “best” they have, has the same line of bull that we have heard from all of the bigotted, small-minded, moronic “leaders” of the Republican party. For over 40 years I have voted a bi-partisan ticket, believing that one party in control is not a good thing, but after the last two elections, there is not a Republican worth notice in my estimation. I would love to see a third party form and truly present the American people with an innovative and deliberate approach to reforming the Washington political machine. Mr. Rubio has a very long way to go….

Personally, I think they should just give up the opposition “rebuttal. ” The POTUS is the only office in the country that ALL the citizens vote for. He ( and someday, she) are Consitutionally required to give to Congress a “state of the union.” Presumably, the losing side doesn’t agree much, but they lost, so the whole rebuttal speech is just redundant anyway. Why waste our time? They just sound like sour grapes. And this goes for whichever party is in power.
