Left And Right Politics

Remember on the campaign trial when Obama told his followers to “argue and get in their face“? Well, it seems the tables have turned…and the politicians don’t like it to much. Maybe they should be listening to the people they represent.

Some comments from various sites around the internet:

‘Doggett complains about the tactics used the protesters, but he should understand that the protesters learned those tactics from the left. It’s a beotch to have the tables turned on a democrat. If Doggett thinks their is a coordinated effort to disrupt his town hall meeting now, just wait until he runs for re-election and sees the efforts to insure he doesn’t win a return trip to Washington.”

“My, my… Doggett and the ACORN/MoveOn.org/DailyKos types are sure touchy when their very same tactics are turned around and used on them.”

“Darned constituents. Who the hell do they think they are, anyway?”

“Attended the Austin Rally, it was a raucous good time and met a lot of people who feel the way I do about Obama policies. Keep the pressure up people!”

“Once again, I challenge any and all who believe that government-run healthcare is a good idea to the following simple test:

1. Make up a question on healthcare (any question will do). It is preferable to ask a serious life-and-death question which could (or has) affected your family and/or yourself personally.

2. Dial 1-800-MEDICARE and do what you must contact a live human to get an answer. Time this process from first dialing to its conclusion (hint: make sure you have access to plenty of food and water and make sure you visit the bathroom before trying this).

3. Report your results back to this forum, and tell us again why you think government-run health care is a good idea.”

“Organized protests—with instructions?? It sounds like Acorn and Code Pink. About time some Dems got to see the shoe on the other foot. Forgive me if my sympathy is attenuated.

In this video, you will see a clear sign that Janet Napolitano hasn’t the slightest idea on how to protect this country. It’s bad enough that our borders aren’t secure, but to go ahead and order the border police not to wear protective masks is just a clear case that this woman should be removed from office.

In the video, you will see a phone number to call Congress to tell them to have Janet Napolitano resign from her position, then again it was never her’s in the first place since she is so incompetent.

The number to call is 877-851-6437

The credit crisis and the housing market crash has caused this great country to once again be in need to borrow money from foreign countries to bail out the United States from bankruptcy. It’s to the point that foreign countries own 40% of the US debt that our politicians have given to the citizens of this great nation.

There was a time that the rest of the world would come to us for assistance and aid, now they just come to us for our military aid and to buy more our debt. Over the last five months, our Presidents (Bush and Obama) have passed bills to try to stimulate the economy. It will cost the United States citizens trillions of dollars to pay back the debt that has been added to our already high debt.

China has bought most of the contracts to our debt, which is a treat on our security of this country. What will happen in seven years when we are expected to pay back the Chinese for the money they let us? Will we be able to pay them back or do we just give them the rights to some of our major components of our economy as collateral.

In the last three decades, the United States have been sending many (if not most) of our factory and manufacturing jobs oversea to China. In the process, we’ve lost our edge on being the leader of the industrial age. As we enter the technology age, we’ve already started sending quite a few of those jobs to India. India is also another country that hold a lot of America’s debt. So not only are they advancing their own country’s economy, but they’re also buying our county without us even being aware of it.

Our politicians have been spending way too much money on things they can’t afford. Yes, this country needs to be put back together economically, but they are going about it all wrong. When your family is in a financial bind, do you spend more money to get a hold of the issue or do you spend less to make ends meet?

The United States is in a bad position (between a Barack and a hard place). Our government is spending money that they don’t have, China is a good position to taking over parts of our economy and India is not too far behind them doing the same thing. Add on top of all of it, the fact that we have North Korea shooting long-range missiles and our President isn’t even doing anything about it.

Write your elect official to tell them that they need to secure the safety of this country by not selling our debt to other countries that don’t really care about us. If you’re like me and prefer to talk to them on the phone, then call the U.S. Senate @ 1-202-224-3121

Before I left the Democratic party and became a registered Libertarian, I considered joining The Green Party. I’m still on their mailing list and this was in my inbox a couple of days ago.

This week, the Obama Administration rolled out a plan to throw another trillion dollars at banks. That’s $1,000,000,000,000, going to companies largely responsible for the current recession.

Government should be holding the financial sector accountable for the damage that’s been done to the economy, for the millions of lost jobs in recent months. Government should be directly helping people at risk, many of whom made no substantial mistakes but have lost their jobs or their savings anyway. But government is prioritizing Wall Street over Main Street.

This isn’t the change that so many Americans clamored for a few short months ago. This new wrinkle to trickle-down economics isn’t going to inspire hope.

The real change is the change offered by the Green Party. The real hope is in the Green Party’s genuine vision for a sustainable future.

The Green Party needs your help to make this sustainable future a reality. Unlike the other parties, we don’t take contributions from the corporations we’re forking billions of dollars over to. In fact, we don’t take contributions from any corporations at all. So we are extremely reliant on average Americans, the very people facing uncertain futures right now.

This is why we urge those of you who are able to give to the Green Party of the United States today. We too are facing mounting bills and pressure to stay afloat through the down cycle in the economy. And we understand too that many other groups are facing similar prospects and have similar needs. We can’t say that those other groups aren’t important. But we can say why the Green Party is, and why the success of the Green Party is so critical as our nation teeters.

The Green Party is still the largest political party in the United States which is dedicated to establishing Single Payer Universal Health Coverage. As more people lose their jobs, the necessity for access to health care becomes increasingly dire, but the Obama Administration keeps signaling new handouts to insurance companies as their preferred option. Green momentum is critical to push Washington toward the solution that people actually want.

The Green Party is still demanding that we get out of Iraq and Afghanistan, slash the Pentagon’s budget, and use that money to help the American people. But the Obama Administration hedges on Iraq, and sends more combat troops to Afghanistan, while expanding the war across the Pakistani border. This is costing more American lives and billions of American dollars. Green momentum is essential to confront Obama with the reality that he’s not doing what the people want.

The Green Party takes no money from real estate companies, investment firms, or insurance companies; In fact, we don’t take any corporate money because we think corporate money in politics is wrong. If you agree, please help us today. Your donation to the Green Party will help make sure we have a strong Green party today and into the future.
