A Real Historic Look at America Today


      The Ides of March are now passing today, and the year is slowly passing away, the spring has sprung yet the Republican Primary is not done! Why is that, and why can’t the Republicans figure out how to get their shit in one sock so to say? Good question isn’t it?

       The pursuers in this Republican Primary act like they can catch the front-runner and make a difference, but they can’t and all they are doing is destroying their own chances as a party in the Republican Race for President. Not a one so far has proven at all they can take on President Obama and the Democrats. It’s a Stooges skit that is funny, stupid and a serious way to stop your own party from winning any seats in the house, the Senate or the White House. Your destroying yourselves in America’s eyes. can’t you see that?

       If the Supreme Court kills Obama’s Health Care Law and it’s Mandate the law itself can not stand either. If that happens and many Americans who can’t afford health care at all due to rising prices of medications, and care and hospital costs, guess who they will be pissed at, the Republicans!

       The same Republicans who raise taxes, have borrowed and borrowed from our Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare and taken from the elderly to give to the rich. Sad that America, must take from its elderly these days, to support its youth and kill off some of the best generations in American History this way, isn’t it?

        Next the Republicans want to cut Veterans Benefits right? They better not, if you think PTSD killings and acts are on the rise, take away the medical benefits from Veterans and you better hide. What is wrong with Congress, The Senate these days, why do you want to cut back what elderlys need and then, borrow from what we paid into and not worry anymore? Your destroying past generations, your destroying and not leaving anything for the current generation and in the end your piling debt after debt on future generations of proud Americans who have to carry on when we are gone. Wake the hell up in Washington, DC, If you can’t take care of the elderly and the veterans of all ages and the disabled, how the hell can you run a country and make it work, no wonder we are in the Red!

       Stop the bleeding of American taxpayers and stop the bleeding of our elderly and Veterans!  Stop taking away what people paid into for decades of their lives and leave it be. You want to improve things let me at your budget, I will cut the fat instead and leave a lean monster, like the average american’s household is currently being run on. No more wars, no more policing the world, we can’t afford it, No more giving to other nations pull back and take care of our own. Lets rebuild manufacturing and blue collar jobs, give some tax breaks to big companies to come back, Lets rewrite and improve the trade Agreements and start exporting a lot more than we import once more!

        In the end my friends, The Republicans are killing their own chances, the Democrats are land locked by them in Congress and the Senate. We have no consensus, no way to move forward that works, and the politicians all play patty cake together in the end.

       To improve what we have, to represent the people, the politicians in Washington, DC, duly elected by us the American people, have stopped representing us, are only representing the rich, we should throw out those who do this and get normal citizens elected once more.

 

 

Raves, Rants and me!


      Apple The big Computer, Tablet, I Phone, I Pod giant is releasing the new I-Pad today. They are lowering the price on the I-Pad 2 to 399.00 a shot, also. Apple makes the sturdiest computers and I-Pads out there along with the I-pod, I-phone, they have amazing products, that once people get them they want to keep them forever. As Apple goes so goes most of the Computer Manufacturers trying to keep up with them, it’s amazing what APple produces and sells, but the one disappointment is the pricing of these products.

      If I could afford a Apple Computer or even an Apple I-Pad I would grab one and run, but they are not priced for average Americans or consumers, they are priced for the upper economic class. All I can do is pray and hope someday I can afford one, but I doubt it will happen for a Disabled Veteran with no job living on Disability Pay, yet everytime I go by the Apple STore in the Mall, I stop in an dstare all amazed at them all.

    But like the economy today, prices are rising on gas, food, housing, insurance and more. It’s a struggle to eat, pay your bills and affrod to live never mind the niceities of Apple Products to own and have. 

       Clothing, Food, Gas, Oil, come first, paying the mortgage comes first or the rent. Medical costs triple on us old Veterans and Disabled ones, as well as retired ones.  Yet Congress, and the Leaders in both parties wish to fight over our medical benefits, our Medicade, Medicare, Social Security and even our prescription coverages, for the elderly and disabled. They say they are tired of paying for our benefits, well that is crap too. Those who are lucky enough to get the benefits earned them by paying into Social Security Medicade and Medicare, what right does Congress have to take any of it from us?

        I know the question is what does Apple making money have to do with benefits for us elders and disabled folks? Actually not anything at all, like my web blog says I do at times rant and rave and raise hell.  But I also know in the end I am usually right about Congress, Washington,DC. what I feel is politically wrong for candidates to say and do is included too.

      I rant against bad customer services, I rant against lousy resturants, I rave on Apple and their products but complain about the prices of everything, I know, I know I sound like a raving maniac, but in all truth, I am just a mad American Disabled Veteran watching a political show that should have ended months ago on the Republican side, and watching my dreams and the dreams of millions of Americans go up in smoke as we can not pay our bills and have what the rich have anymore. So yes I rant and rave, yes I scream and shout, yes I dream of what I want and can not have, but, it is my right as a human being, and a Veteran and an American.

      In the end my Rants and Raves do not get me anything, not even attention, but it is theraphy for me to do it. I suffer from many injuries, six bad discs in my spine from the service days, PTSD, Sleep Apenea,and more, I have survived 16 years service, and two TIA Heart Attacks and I still survive. So yes if I rant crazy at times I am allowed, as long as I hurt no one.
