A New Beggining is Needed, But:


       A new look, a new beginning, a new world, and a need for the same leader! Americans, listen please, for what I am about to say makes sense! Barrack Obama our President was elected in 2008 for a reason, he showed us energy,hope,truth,honesty, a fighting spirit and most of all caring for the people of America. It doesn’t matter to him if you are white,black, hispanic,mexican,portuguese, or any other nationality, you are American and deserve a future and the rights of all under the American Constitution, and The Bill of Rights. I am saying this because in order to move the country back to greatness, the job market back to health and keep healthcare in place as well, as keep Veterans and disabled persons going this man is needed.

Barrack Obama, as our President achieved many things in office as was testified to at the Democratic National Convention last night. He has handled himself with pride, dedication and honor in office, he stands for what we believe in, not what others want all the time. He is not here to play wishy-washy games and change his mind every five minutes like Romney. He is here to make decisions and then live by them and see them through to fruition. He won’t run and hide and we all know that today and for future events too. His hand held the tiller straight, his hand guided us to HealthCare, The capture and defeat of Osama Bin Laden, and many more important issues, He saved the Automotive Industry and the Banking Industry, when all said it could not or should not be done.

If you want a person in office, who will save Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and HealthCare for all, a person who wants to create more jobs, educate more people,save The Postal Service and more, we need President Barrack Obama, more so now than before.

To the doubters and non-believers out there in America, let me close with one clear, true and honest message about Government, Families, Americans, and facts. Listen closely folks please:

No President can fill in a hole 8 years deep and complete the job in half the time it took to dig it! No One can, and no one will especially if opposed for all the four years he is in office trying to correct it! If you want to blame someone for the mess not being fixed properly, blame the Republicans, they wouldn’t and still won’t work with the Democrats and the President to fix it all.! Tell the Republicans come November 6th, to go home, get out-of-the-way and let progress take place, to work with the President in a bi-partisan way, or get out of office! Vote Democratic folks or we go under!

Issaac/ Election/ Facts


      As Isaac slams the Gulf Coast, and the storm surge is coming at the people there, I wonder what Mother Nature intends for the area! The Gulf States have survived many hurricanes and storms over the years and decades and more, but, what can be done to change the suffering and damages? The damages from these weather conditions, kill, destroy and cost America and their states, cities and people billions over time. So why would people continue to live in the way of such weather, what makes the citizens want to stay there is beyond me. I just hope as Isaac continues and starts to wind down later today, the survivors there, with damages will come to their senses and finally leave the area, no levees are big enough to stop Mother Nature folks!

Next, The Election which will continue no matter what happens elsewhere. As The Republican Convention rages on now with Romney and Ryan both nominated and now the candidates of their party, they will speak. I don’t want to hear anything except, plans to increase the economy, jobs and help elderly and future generations. Will they find a way, do they have a way to create jobs, put Americans back to work, and turn around the economy in America? Will they save Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, The US Postal Service, and keep HealthCare for all? If not I wouldn’t vote for them!  We can’t afford tax breaks for the rich, we can’t afford to baby those already rich at the expense of the lower, and middle class!  You want to raise taxes, tax the hell out of the millionaires, the billionaires and more! Please leave the poor and middle class alone. Don’t repeal ObamaCare as  it is now called, people need it, they need medical help, prescriptions and more and you will kill off the elderly and raise their costs of living!

My last message today Americans to all of you, who may read this is simple! America has risen to the top civilization and society in the world on the backs of the lower and middle class not the rich. We were handed, the current generation, a country with some problems but always improved by previous generations for us! Can we and do we want to give our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren a nation on the down slide and ending in ruin? Like previous civilizations that rose to the top in the world and ultimately destroyed themselves, America is now on that same brink now. We need to back off, find what will save us and make it work for the future generations, not continue to drive us deeper in debt!. Wake up folks, you can’t keep borrowing, you have to cut back, remove the unnecessary and lower costs. We can’t run our homes and families that way, and now we can not run America that way either.!

 

Election Anger and False Statements


      As an Independent Voter, who is not a member of either Party, I tire of this bickering, and attacking each other from both parties and candidates. The Republicans attack the current administration and then in turn Obama attacks the Republicans and Romney. What we have here is not an election run by candidates who are adults, respectful and talking issues to the public and the citizens of America, but, two grown men acting like children on a playground in Elementary School. I can do better than you,no , you can’t I can. It feels more like a scene out of the Family Circus in the Comics page in the Sunday Paper!

Romney did not kill anyone and Obama is not going to break Medicare and Medicaid either, The Post Office and the system will go down because of electronic media such as e-mail, social programs like Facebook and more. Unless someone stops borrowing from it and gives it an infusion of cash or credit to continue. The Postal Service has been in effect and working in America since the days of Ben Franklin and our founding fathers in America, why are politicians and men in government going to let it fade?

And what of Social Security Ladies and Gentlemen? Is Congress going to continue to borrow from the money we pay in for our elderly days, till there is nothing left for anyone to have? We have Senior Citizens who have nothing to live on but these checks each month, they depend on Medicare and Medicaid also to pay for medicines and treatments!. So what happens if all of the above goes because politicians can’t figure out how to save it all, or how to refinance it all? Does this mean my children and their children and future generations of Americans can end up living like those in third world nations, hungry, homeless, sleeping in caves and tents and boxes? When will Congress wake up?

I have heard false accusations, false statements, lies and rhetoric from both sides so far now. when will someone tell us the truth Americans? When will one candidate stand up and admit our economy is failing, our job markets suck, because we killed off blue-collar work and factories! When will a politician stand up and tell us Unemployment will not be funded forever and will run out on us all?  Please tell us, Mr. President and Mr. Romney, when will our politicians who represent we the people, actually act and make some positive changes to create jobs, increase the GNP and move America forward once again? When will America be able to compete once more and be on top of the world markets? When will we stop fighting other nations wars and getting our service members killed for stupid reasons?  I have heard enough of the anger and false statements of both candidates this election season already, can someone make them finally give us solid plans, to save Medicaid, Medicare, Obama care, Social Security, and yes The Postal Service? When will either candidate finally show some guts and be honest with the American People and stop pointing fingers and state solutions for all above? Probably never if you ask me, for each just wants to carry on and be marked in history as either a two term President or President at any cost! The Cost Americans is us and the future generations of Americans, yes your children, your grandchildren and their livelihood and lives. Stop and Think, make these men and their political parties come up with solid answers that work! Lets clean up the deficit, lets create jobs, save Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and the Post Office, make the right choice America, for in the end it is our children, grandchildren and future generations that will suffer and pay for our mistakes!

 

Break the Blockade in Washington!


     June 15th, 2012 has arrived and all is really quiet on the political front it seems. Are we about to get a media blitz from the Republican Party come September or October for Romney’s mad run at the White House? Can his money really buy him the Presidency? Lets hope not, for America’s sake!

      Half way through June and it seems  no improvements have been made in the job market, medicare,medicaid and no rescue plan is in sight for us in the trade Agreements, Social Security or Postal Service jobs either!  The only part of the government actually working and thriving is the State Department under Hillary Clinton, why is that?

        I have now live through so many presidents it is silly really, when you get to 56, all you really want to do is have one damn good one in office dedicated to helping seniors and veterans and americans of all colors, races and nationalities. One that will stop the bleeding of the United States‘s money and finances and make us solvent once again. One that can and will return our credit rating as a country to the top once more and accomplish something period. A dormant America is not good for America, the World Economy or the World period, without America the world economy flounders and slows to a halt.  Sad isn’t it really, but true, we need to lead for it to all work. It doesn’t mean lead in wars, policing or fighting other countries, it means lead with brains, inprovements, science,financial control and trade agreements and in health and education too. America always led in the past and the world flourished and grew faster than anything in history and America needs to do it again.

        I tire of excuses from the Republican side about what we can do, or should do or why they disagree with President Obama on issues and why they won’t pass a bill worth the shit in Congress or trhe Senate. Sadly changes need to be made this election year, but the change is not to be in the presidency, it should be in the Republican controlled congress and they should be reduced back to the minority period. They are responsible for the log jams in Washington not anyone else, so when you vote in November, and all of us should ove r18 and legal, I say keep President Obama, trash some of the Republican Congress and lets break the blockade in Washington an dmove the country forward.

 

     

Lets Fix America !


The political race is on for four years in the White House, the battle is now engaged by both sides and about to step up and hit with force, in the American People’s faces. While President Obama and Romney will be going head to head, please stop and look at both of their views on certain issues: 1) Wars in Afghanistan and elsewhere, they need to be stopped and what is ours in forces and weapons need to come home. 2) Watch for who will save Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and Veterans Benefits, these programs are the ones keeping many helpless, homeless and needy people alive and giving them a chance to. 3) Health Care– who has the better plan 4)  immigration Who will toughen the laws, but allow those here to stay in someway 5) Jobs, Who can really create jobs and bring back manufacturing and make our economy go forward 6) Who will change the Trade Agreements to a point where they favor America’s needs and our exports once more out shine and out measure our imports once more on the world market. 7) Who will step in and save the Postal Service that is needed by many millions across the USA to deliver our medications and things we depend on daily to survive. 8 ) Who has the better leadership skills period and will stand up for all Americans not just the rich or poor but all. 9) Who can reformat, reinvent the tax codes in the US to fit the current population and make it work, without raising them on the poor and middle class. We have no more to give Uncle Sam is bleeding out the poor and middle class to save the rich, wrong! 10) We saved big business and Wall Street and companies, now collect back what we loaned them as a country and lets use it for good works not bad.

       We also need to elect a congress that will support which ever man we elect as President. You can’t give the throne to one man and then put his opposition into check and balance him and expect him to be able to accomplish much, it’s like blockading a country, you can’t work around it well.

       As a country we screwed up by electing a Democrat as President and a congress full of Republicans to checkmate him. What we got was a blockade that stopped anything real from being accomplished and it is the American people’s fault now. Lets clean it up and make whoever is in the White House have a supporting cast to accomplish what needs to be done.

 

Medical Benefits/ SS and More!


      Ok, I am back not feeling the same but back. Spent Thursday in the Hospital, after my blood pressure went up on me and hit 169/87. Seems something was really wrong, so I was at an appointment there anyway, next I knew I was on a stretcher in the Emergency Room. Funny how shit happens huh.

      After, a day and night laying on a stretcher in an Emergency Room, and being looked at by Doctors left and right and cat scanned, they could not find the reason my blood pressure went so high and my pulse so low. By the time they discharged me, the conclusion came out to Complex Migraine. I don’t know whether they were right or wrong, I just know it s Saturday now and the weakness I felt on my left side is not fading fast enough for me. If it ever fades well it won’t be soon enough for me.

        This is the same situation I talk about for many Veterans and disabled people across America and the world. Veteran’s Hospitals save lives and I think they saved mine Thursday.  I think these hospitals need to stay put and so does the benefits veterans earn serving their country.  Politicians can rant and rave and complain about benefits people get, but don’t mess with them folks, we earned them. I hear how some republicans want to cut Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and Veteran’s Benefits, you better leave it all alone, we earned what we have. If you want to know why we need it so badly check the conditions of the disabled, the conditions of the Veterans and the amounts of money we live on, then tell me you would like to live so broke and dependent on these benefits, go ahead!  Illnesses, from heart, to discs, to breathing and more hit us all and we live in wheel chairs, on canes, and some don’t even walk or talk. And you think taking our benefits away will save your budgets, and you can’t afford to help us. Do we who served and volunteered to serve or were drafted to protect this nation say no, we can’t afford to serve, no we did so proudly and earned what we have. Stop thinking about taking away or borrowing from Social Security, Disability benefits for Veterans, Medicare and Medicaid or our prescription plans or dental plans, we didn’t say no to what you asked us, leave us something in return!.
