Obama-Instigated Change

Republicans are throwing around negative inuendos, smears and outright lies about Obama - his citizenship, his religion, his fitness, his loyalty, his policies..... But I am most disgusted with the way Republicans malign Obama's solid achievements with regard to the economy. Two things they scream most about are the bailouts and The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. They fail to say that the big financial bailout was the work of the Bush Administration. And they deliberately confuse the Recovery Act, with which Obama has instigated an era of economic change.

Republicans Seek Social Security Privatization

Republicans want to privatize Social Security. President George W. Bush spent months seeking privatization with no luck. Today Republican Representative Paul Ryan is touting his new "budget" that seeks privatization of Social Security. And now the old Republican Senator Simpson, the co-chair of Obama's deficit commission, is trashing Social Security.

A Mosque as a Mask for Intolerance

Americans are in the midst of a contentious debate about a "Ground Zero Mosque." Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf submitted plans for an Islamic Cultural Center to be built 2 blocks north of Ground Zero. A few loud-mouths, looking for a way to stir people up, started the controversy. The Mosque became a mask for intolerance.

Ground Zero Reconciliation

Ground Zero in New York is where Osama bin Laden slaughtered 3,000 people. Bin Laden does not think of himself as a terrorist, but as a Muslim instigating a war with Christians in order to make the world safe for Islam. From Bin Laden's point of view the 9/11 atrocity was a huge success: Americans have been rendered ridiculously paranoid, so much so, that many are hysterically against the building of a peaceful Islamic house of worship near Ground Zero.

We've been Googled!

I remember when Google was one site among many that I accessed when I wanted to find something on the Internet. Slowly but surely, Google became my preferred site and the preferred site of almost everyone because it had an outstanding search engine. Google became a verb, as in "Google it" and "I googled the facts." It pains me to say that google now means something radically different: "double-cross." Yes, we've been googled!

Angry Republicans

Why are Republicans so angry? They don't argue with Democrats; they vilify them. Instead of disagreeing with President Obama's policies, they call him a Hitler, a Stalin, a terrorist, a socialist, a communist, the anti-Christ, someone who hates whites - the list is endless. Republicans spew the same kind of ravenous rage towards Nancy Pelosi and other prominent Democrats. Why?

Liberals for Limited Government

Conservatives claim that they prefer limited government and that liberals favor big government. Liberals respond that they are not necessarily for big government, but for effective government. Furthermore, enacting major liberal ideas is an excellent way to achieve limited government.

A Lesson in Democracy

Robert Rizzo, the City Manager of Bell, a very poor city in Southern California, receives annually $787,637 - almost $800,000! For overseeing a population of about 40,000! How come? Nobody was paying attention to the politicians running the place.

The Republican Agenda

Evidently there is a big debate going on within Republican circles whether to come up with a Republican Agenda to help win a Republican victory in November. John Boehner, the House Minority Leader, has a neat, simple, easy to enforce suggestion that neatly, simply and easily encapsulates the Republican philosophy of government. Boehner told reporters:

Republicans are Worried about the Deficit?

Why can't we get an unemployment-benefits-extension bill passed? Republicans say they don't want to increase the deficit. Why were they against the stimulus bill? Worried about the deficit. The healthcare reform bill? Again, the deficit. But then Republicans shout with one voice: "Maintain the tax cuts. Never mind the deficit."
