[...] in watching Ryan’s career and reading this article. I don’t think fellow G.O.P. Congressmen truly believe in his budget. I think they admire his politically brave stance. After all, Congress is nothing more than an [...]

The acid test is to have these folks declare on the stump where they stand on the Norquist “no new taxes” pledge.

How deep does their charitability go?

All the Democrats need to do is to keep Rove, Norquist, Rush and the Koch brothers in the forefront and remind the voters how dangerous to the American people and our democracy these people are and how important it is to stop them from getting control of all three branches of gvt.

These people do not care about your or America. They only care about power and money. Their clever organization names are misleading…like “Americans for Properity”. The only prosperity they care about is theirs.

They are buying this election thanks to the Robert’s court.

Americans need to remember that and whatever is said is meant to distract you from what is really happening. Remember where we were 3 years ago and don’t forget how we got there and the policies that put us there.

This is probably the most important election in a very long time.

It amazes me how selective memories can be in such a short period of time.
The Republicans have done zilch in this recovery and had they cared more about country and less about party, we may have been faring better but they blame Obama for not cleaning up fast enough the collousal mess they left behind and now they want to pick up where they left off and continue the same policies that have already been proven not to work.
They want austerity for us but more tax breaks for people who do not need any relief. If you think austerity works, I believe we can look at Europe and see that is not going to work but will only exacerbate the pain here.

They want to decimate any social safety nets for people their policies have thrown off a financial cliff. The Republican’s have reduced unemployment benefits, reduced food stamp help, interferring in a women’s right to choose, voter supression, want you to have no health care protection, no consumer protection, no regulation against dirty air or polluting clean water. How much more of your life do you want them to destroy?

The Republicans are not your friend and don’t forget that for a second.

They will all scatter like mice as if someone yelled CAT! The American people are waking up to what the truth is. Most people Democrats, Republicians & independents all want the same things, a better future for our chidren, our parents not having to decide between food & meds and a fair & justice system.

One could only hope that sanity could prevail and that the extreme austerity vaunted by the many of self interest will not succeed. We are American and have survived greater, grander, crueler forces and have won in a revolutionary war for freedom, individuality and the will to think and pray freely without oppression. We can do it again. But we must do it as brothers and sisters and not let the heinious amongst us to lay their intricately woven decietful webs. We are the children of the past and the present and we can defeat all that is wrong, but only if we learn, discover and vote with a consience not because someone led us by the nose and the harness of self interest and uncaring heart.

There is a bus load of nuns going up the east coast in protest of the Ryan budget. Bishops have sent a scathing letter to Ryan that his budget will decimate the poor. They asked him not to use his Jesus teachings to defend his budget!! Repubs.want no government controls of any kind. We can’t go back to more of the Bush years. Clinton left Bush a surplus. In 8 yrs he lost all of it. Romney is no better and would love to fire most of us!!!
