I’m going to go off the cuff today and add a little humor that will only infuriate some but “Hey” that sadly is the climate that we are living in today. No one has a sense of humor left.  Americans have both ran out of patience and humor when it comes to the lies,hate, and bigotry of the Right-wing and the people who do not recognize to what a degree they have ruined politics,been lied to, or their efforts to destroy both our freedoms and prosperity.

First off, if you do not agree with my politics and instead want to call me a Moron please spell it right.  Please note, it is not spelled MORAN. All of us make writing errors but when it shows up in the title it says more about you than it does me. The Good Lord knows I don’t change all of my printing errors either but when it gets written and then repeated as moran we get an idea that you can demean better than you can think.

While I’m on the subject of moron I want to write this post to the White Male Race.  Let me assure you that women and minorities are not taking jobs from you but your own lack of education or experience  is causing you to lose those jobs along with the greed of those who hire both women and minorities.

When you were born you more than likely was the apple of your Daddy’s eye and many of you were given privileges that the girls in the family or minorities did not get.  Your dad went from being your biggest buddy in some cases to being your biggest angst if he gave you the job you now have or if Mom kissed you and planned her day around your meals and games, then Mom was your best buddy.

You see many of you went to college to party or to prolong the experience while others of you dropped out of highschool because you got the love of your life pregnant. Some of you graduated from highschool to only find that a highschool degree only pays you minimum wage but that too will be gone when the Republicans ran by the Tea Party or the current Conservatives are in full power of the government. I’m certain you first learned to sacrifice when the babies started coming.  Many of you have yet to do it and some of you will continue thinking “Me First” even after the children are born. Too many of you do not have a clue of what sacrificing for others even is, much less feels like.  Those who do usually find that they do get hired when they make the sacrifices it takes to find a good job and to leave home.

You see the People you support in the Republican Party are exactly the same people who will not hire you because you are neither educated or trained for the job and they learned before President Obama signed into law “the equal Pay for equal work law” that both minorities and women could do as good of a job as the white male could,and in many cases they needed to employ less of them since they worked harder than the white male was willing to do on the same job, add to that  they were both better educated,trained, and willing to work for less, and thereby lies the problem.  Employers are looking for cheap labor and the white male does not fit their picture of employment because the white male is no longer cost-effective.

Mitt Romney will be forced to veto the “equal Pay” bill as soon as he takes office thereby making it as difficult as ever for you to find work.  Both women and minorities were born sacrificing. Many of us are old hands at taking low paying jobs and out-working our competition in order to get ahead.  Think about it white heterosexual males,”Do You really Pass the tests on education and willingness to start low and work as hard as women and minorities do?”  Deep down don’t you know that it is both the job market and your unwillingness to get the education or training and combine it with ambition that is holding you back?

We see Mitt Romney getting all his support from the white male voters along with the wealthy who are putting in millions and millions into his campaign and the white male part of the quotient leaves me perplexed;the Billionaires like Adelson and the Koch brothers we understand because Romney’s cronyism is with millionaires and Billionaires because they understand each other.

Mitt Romney  proved he could not eat in a blue-collar restaurant and not thank the people who gave up a great deal that day so he could pretend he understood us; just as he insulted the women who served him cookies from the local bakery that they were proud of presenting him but  instead he is on tape  knocking the cookies on the table and saying”what did you do; pick these up at 7 eleven or something?”  Mitt Romney is not going to give jobs to the white male population in America.  He may see that the available jobs instead enrich the poor labor workers in China, India, or Taiwan but the jobs that the white heterosexual males think they are entitled to will be replaced by those that eliminate the Unions and come without a need for education,training, or benefits.  You know those low paying jobs passed by the Tea Party Governors in all of our States that they call,”the right to work laws.”

The right-wing along with the Evangelicals goal is to send women and minorities back to the low paying jobs and the kitchen so that white males can take over the jobs that both women and minorities currently hold, but let me assure you, it will never happen under Mitt Romney.  He is no more of a right-wing than he is a liberal.  Mitt Romney will do as Mitt Romney has always done and that is what is cost-effective for the Billionaires by laying-off the working poor and middle class,cutting our wages by eliminating minimum wage, and sending our job over-seas while eliminating the government and unions that protects our rights,the air we breathe, the teachers who teach us,and the firemen and police who protect our homes and lives.

This isn’t just an issue that will deny it all to the elderly,women,gay,immigrants, transgender,minorities and poor that you are promoting that you should not have to help or worry about because it is their problem and the hate is building against them, this is You and your life too,brother.  This is what  Mitt did in Massachusetts as Governor and while CEO at Bain Capital and this is what Mitt, the Conservatives, and Tea Party all together, will do if Mitt is elected President. This is the kind of work they are experienced in. Mitt will be more than glad to compromise on all of these issues since it will mean more money in the pocket of those we, the middle class and working poor pay taxes and  Corporate welfare on, along with making himself,his cronies, and his 5 sons, who he supports, richer.

Mitt will not  please the fiscal Conservatives because his “fuzzy” math is coming from the Ryan team who is running his economic future if he gains the office of President. It raises the deficit by 4.6 trillion in tax cuts to the wealthy while raising those on the middle class. The same tax team Mitt Romney used to denounce Rick Perry’s economics and he then called accurate and fair, is now the same team he says are a liberal tax team that President Obama is quoting.

The lies pour through his teeth every time he opens his mouth to repeat what the Grover Norquist team wants him to say, but we can all be certain that the way he governs will be nothing like the way that he speaks, now. It is the same reason why we don’t have a clue as to who he is.  We can tell he is not really committed to the words coming out of his mouth because we cannot hear any sincerity in the words. When he speaks off the cuff without any guidance from his team he is so out of touch that he doesn’t seem to even know just how insulting he is to us, the middle class and working poor.  Mitt has something powerful behind him other than just billionaires and what the Kennedy’s had as Catholics.  He has what some call the “Mormon Mafia”and they believe that only the wealthy can attain the Blessings and power of God.

Sorry white males if you are blue-collar or did not get a college degree or if you did and are not approved by those who give privileges to those they know and they deem have the right name, or you lack the ambition that will deny you family time, the chances that you will find that your circumstances have changed under a Mitt Romney Presidency is next to nil. You simply will have to learn what women and minorities have known all along.

Those circumstances and that of your mother’s,girlfriend’s,sister’s,daughters, and wife’s will only get worse.  Instead you will find that they are also unemployed and the benefits of free preventive screenings that all of you could have gained from Obama care will be repealed and replaced by the Ryan Plan that will raise your taxes while lowering it on the wealthy and all of your family’s along with your own health care needs will be gone.

It won’t stop there as you will find yourself a father sooner than you planned or supporting a larger family than you planned on without a home you can afford to buy as a result of it;along with this your wife,sister, or girl friend will not be able to get any birth control pills much less getting them free under President Obama’s plan, under a Mitt Romney Presidency.  You really don’t think that Drug Companies or pharmacies will find it cost-effective to carry birth control for women when Mitt makes certain they are banned outright just as the States of Arizona and Kansas have tried to do, do you? Unless you don’t understand Mitt Romney and the Tea Party operate under profit for the wealthy,remember? Remember the words cost-effective? Although he is not right-wing he is a Mormon Bishop and they ban birth control as well, so he will please both his Church and the right-wing on this concession.

In case you are slow to catch on or you are amongst those who like to throw the word Moron around, Mitt Romney plans on going back to the Bush economic plan aided by the Paul Ryan plan that leaves you the working poor and middle class white man out to dry along with your other family members. I repeat:  It is not minorities and women taking your jobs but instead those who support Mitt Romney and contribute millions to his campaign so they can be assured of cheap labor and greater profits by eliminating you, along with the Unions and government Agencys that teach and protect.  Now let me ask those of you who are fighting for Mitt Romney to win,”Don’t  you feel like a moron now?”  It’s too bad that you are not listening to your own common sense or has the Republican Party won that over as well?  Vote in November.

If anyone wonders to what extent the Republican Party is owned by Wall Street and to what extent Mitt Romney will continue greasing the palms of  the lobbyists who both run Wall Street and The Congress and Senate in the Republican Party and to a partial degree in the Democratic Party we only need look at the contributions given to the Romney campaign as versus those given to Barack Obama.  To date the contributions given to each stand at:

Romney        37.8 million

Obama           4.8 million.

So what does the banking Industry and Wall Street get in return  for these contributions we ask?  To begin with the Corporations get our income taxes that should be  paid into our local States to hire us and keep us employed for a year.  Anytime they decide to expand they get free access to the prime land that their plants will sit on,  both welfare endeavors granted to Corporations only helps increase the deficits in our own individual States as these are the incentives that The Corporations are given off the top to sit up shop in our States.  Both adds to the deficits in our  own States and often leads to the lay offs of our teachers, police, and fire fighters along with city,county and State workers in our States, when it comes to balancing budgets by Tea Party elected governors. In short the middle class is being laid off from jobs whose unions have always guaranteed us the right to a fair days wage for an honest days work.  It should matter to all of us because the wages they are paid increases the wages we are paid even though we are not a member of any Union.

Many times Corporations will move out  after they are either taken over by vulture capitalist, such as Bain and Company, or they will pull up shop and send our jobs overseas once all the welfare and tax incentives run out. The list of corporate welfare granted is way too long for me to list here so I will just name the two above.  What Corporations are granted by the Republicans in exchange for doing business would be more than enough  to feed the World hungry many times over, much less the piddley amount given out to feed the poor in America.  Even when these Corporations send jobs overseas we the middle class continue to pay for this Corporate welfare along with  paying oil companies incentives and giving them free land for oil exploration.

When all these free incentives are used up,  as is often the case, the corporations and oil companies leave behind empty buildings and the middle class who moved there and bought homes that ballooned in prices because of the habit of Corporations moving into rural areas where there is a housing shortage.  We the middle class are left behind with homes that are far over valued and with a mortgage we cannot pay and in foreclosure.

With a Republican majority in  Congress and Mitt Romney as President the banks will have even the minimum amount of regulations placed on them lifted.  Instead of lending money to families to set up business, unless you are Donald Trump who operates without collateral and on paper finances, the banks will increase their ability to run the banking enterprise as a casino using our money from both credit cards as well as our investments, as a casino. The auditors and bank examiners will be watered down even more effectively so that loans will become even fewer and farther apart for the middle class.

The banks stand to gain more on rolling the dice than they do in making small business loans. If anyone saw the butt kissing going on when Jamie Dimon of Chase Bank appeared before Congress by the Republican majority and their asking for his help to gain knowledge for their own lack of governing, from the Congressman from Indiana to Johanns of Nebraska, then none of us have to ask to what extent regulations will ever be placed on banking to stop their reckless regard of spending our money. Only the Democrats on the panel questioned the 2 Billion dollar plus loss under his watch at the largest bank in the Nation while the Republicans praised him.

The Corporations get incentives from insurance companies that allow them to use shadow insurance policies that are given to employees at entry-level and middle management, where the deductibles are so high that most healthy families will never get any kind of insurance coverage, despite the fact that they pay into it, as most young  families do not get sick beyond the deductible stage, when it comes to healthcare needs.

The Corporations have increased layoffs  in employees when age and health needs increase with age, for the last seven years.  They get by doing this by eliminating Unions and taking regulations off of them by government, thanks to those politicians such as our Republican congress and Mitt Romney, who are paid for in Congressional and Presidential elections.  Those paid for by the Tea Party are one and the same as no one wants to eliminate government and regulations worse than the Tea Party.

In the past, Corporations could fire an employee who had a child who required long-term care that would cost these insurance companies something in exchange for the dollars the middle class Americans paid in.  If the Obama health care program is allowed to stand they will no longer be able to do this under the law. The Republican Party has been very vocal against any and all healthcare initiatives that would favor the middle class over the Insurance Companies profits.

A Republican Administration will never make healthcare affordable to the middle class without raising deductibles and lowering benefits when it comes to the profit gains or losses to the Insurance companies whether it is healthcare for families or medicare for the elderly; For that reason alone Social Security needs to be left in the hands of government and free from the greed of Capitalism if we are to remain as a Nation that cares for our poor and elderly.  God help us all if we ever stray from taking care of those who have no means of caring for themselves by turning their care over to the greed of Private Insurance and  Capitalism, as advocated in the Ryan Plan.

The News Programing that tries to label itself as “fair and balanced” in their news reporting are owned by Corporations and a great deal of their revenue comes from political ads during an election year.  Can we really trust these cable news shows or Networks who are supported by energy commercials disparaging the Obama Administration?  Do they have any real credibility left when their so called”fair and accurate” news reporting  is paid for by Wall Street and the advertisement ran by Energy companies who would put profit first by selling our natural gas, coal, and oil to Japan and China while lying to us the middle class worker?

Do we have to ask ourselves if Mitt Romney will stand on our side or on the side of the Wall Street and Banking when it comes to lifting any and all regulations on Wall Street? Do we really think he will create jobs for us that increases our wages instead of decreases the wages we earn?  Do we think his business acumen is such that it will bring back the dream to the middle class?  Do we think Mitt will  make sure the working conditions of the miners matter more than the profits if the EPA is removed or that our children are safe with the water they drink, the air they breath ,and against reckless gun owners?  Will he hire back teachers, policemen, or fire fighters to protect our children against the insanity of “the stand your ground law” and to guarantee a better education for our children? Will he protect low-interest loans to students at a lost of profit to the banks? Do we think he won’t eliminate Social Security entirely for the greed of the Private Insurance Companies, in the name of the Ryan Plan?

I have only one other question,”What is wrong with the middle class who continues to fall for these paid for by Wall Street lies that  come out of the mouths of both the Conservative right and Tea Party candidates(that is 70% and climbing  in the Republican Party)?  Wall Street and their paid for politicians and media cannot continue rigging the system against the middle class unless we vote for them and stand back and allow our own dreams to be flushed down the drain by both the Tea Party and Conservative right who have taken over the Republican Party in our Cities,States and Washington.

Its time we the middle class wake up and vote for those who fight for us by electing those who fight for the middle class.  We the middle class can no longer afford the misconception that Republicans offer jobs or care about balanced budgets or will protect our pensions or 401 k’s against Corporate looting,or our paid for healthcare will buy us the protection we have paid for. We need to face the real truth which is:” The middle class survival over the profits of the wealthy does not  have any bearing or concern with the Conservatives or the Tea Party who are the majority of the Republican Party.”  They will never give us a job that gives the middle class discretionary spending over the profits of Wall Street unless we do bring back stricter and stronger regulations through government.

The middle class having discretionary spending over Corporate profit is what will give us a strong and robust economy along with politicians like President Obama fighting for us, the middle class, by initiating this change back to where we were before the Bush Administration. With the co-operation of both the Congress and Senate government needs to be supported in its endeavors to protect us the middle class workers.

“When business does better we do better” is a lie and we need to accept that for the lie it is. At the same time that the profits of businesses have grown by 100% to 150% the wages of the middle class have dropped by 40% since they are denying their workers the jobs that pay better wages. Those jobs are going over seas or being parceled out at a lesser cost to the Corporations.  When business does better we will continue doing worse unless we are again protected against their greed by regulations and Unions who do not allow them to use “the right to work laws”, against the worker for longer hours and less pay.  Only the Unions and government can insure that the middle class will remain well and healthy.  Without their vigilance against the greed of Wall Street we will lose.

Wall Street has continued getting richer through investments and tax breaks while  refusing to create jobs or training personnel for the ever-changing job markets  while the middle class continues to get poorer, paying for their welfare programs. The economy will only get better and the jobs return when we the middle class do better with a job and career that gives us a fair days pay for an honest days work and through affordable education.  The lies have existed for too long in America and are defeating us the middle class the longer we believe these lies.

Vote against the Conservative and Tea Party backed candidates in our own Cities and States as well as Washington DC.  Too many are  paid for and bought by the Tea Party,  Wall Street and special interests groups that have nothing to do at all with or about honest paying jobs or the concerns and welfare of the working poor or for the middle class healthcare costs.The more government and Unions they can eliminate, the more their greed can run unimpeded by the rules and regulations that protect we the middle class worker against that greed.  We are helping them defeat us every time we vote Republican.

We the people need to untie the knots that the wealthy keep tying Democracy up with by rigging the system to work for them and by buying their own personal politicians.  The only way we can stop this is to vote out those who are paid for  to such a degree that the candidates are owned by the Conservatives, Tea Party, and Wall Street, such as Mitt Romney is, one by one in November. VOTE!

There have been many lies told and attempts made at endoctrination by the Tea Party in its membership, but the two greatest lies told are that they are bi-partisan and they are fiscally conservative. They are not nor will they ever be, Democrat or Independent. They will add all the pork to any and all bills as well as delay or drag their feet on any or all provisions made for the middle class by the Democrats or moderate Republicans, as long as they cannot take personal gains from it. When it suits their image they will flood us with photo or media opportunity.

The Tea Party are Republicans and do not mistake them for being fiscally conservative as their main goal is to compliment and promote the goals of the far right in America, while eliminating government altogether.They have made attempts to promote the idea that they want to thin out the Conservatives in politics, however, it is their dollars and support that has increased the strength of the far right.

The Tea Party leaders in truth, want to eliminate any control over commerce, and currently what are considered illegal practices, through eliminating the laws protected by government. In order to do this they need to instead make the legalization of both prostitution and street drugs including heroin the norm, and in doing so profit from it. They have put a great deal of money into campaigns to defeat any incumbents both Democrats and Republicans that voted with President OBama in his choices for the Supreme Court.

In areas like Indiana which has always been Republican Luger’s territory and Utah which has always been Republican Orin Hatch’s domain, it may even backfire on them as it opens up the possibility of a Democrat being able to win their seats after years of the Democrats never challenging either candidate. It’s not likely but it is possible that a Democrat could now win,but we do need to understand in both cases the Tea Party will match two dollars for their choice of Republican candidate to every dollar spent by the Luger and Hatch campaigns and $3 dollars and more against any Democrat candidate that will run.

They have tons of people whose only job it is, to make certain they spend hours at looking through the candidates personal life as well as their records in an attempt to get “dirt” on them that will defeat them at the polls. The Tea Party wants both out of office because they voted in favor of President OBama’s candidates to the Supreme Court. The Tea Party is after control of the Supreme Court appointees as well as behind the voter suppression and the “Stand Your Ground Laws.”

The hate against President OBama along with the lies told and the propaganda that has divided us in America has been done by the money and influence in America that backs and supports the Tea Party movement. They neither believe that America was intended to be a Democracy nor led by a government. They are racists to the inth degree and would deny all Americans the same freedoms that they feel that the white male is entitled to.

They are also flaming Religious rights against a woman’s right to her own health issues and to deny us the insurance coverage we women all pay for in greater amounts than the male gender. It has been their elected govenors who have attempted to make the vaginal probe of women law. They have been vocal from day one on the lies that were spread and even helped coin Obama care. They like the Conservatives encouraged lawyers and judges to take the healthcare voted on by our elected majority before the Supreme Court and continue to mislead the people on the fact that instead of costing us 90 million it actually saves us 101 million dollars. People with pre-existing disease and children who could not get coverage otherwise are now covered. It gives students time to complete their studies while still covered under their parents’ healthcare plan. It has already saved retirees millions of dollars in the drugs they require in order to remain active or alive, by closing the donut hole.

Although the true views and actions of the Tea Party are entirely against the beliefs of most Americans, the polls still show that 60% of the American people support the Tea Party movement. It is time that we all recognize to what extent this movement is destroying both the Republican Party as well as our own rights to Freedom that we are ALL entitled to and have paid for. They are behind the elimination of the Unions that set the standards and wages for all middle class workers with their “right to work laws” that only lower wages and demand longer working hours for all of us. They are the Ryan Plan that would deny millions of middleclass workers’ children treatment through Medicaid or the elderly the choice of Doctor or treatment by eliminating Medicare and Social Security as we know it. They are as driven as the Conservatives are to eliminate the Dept. of education,headstart and Planned Parenthood.

In their efforts to destroy Democracy for all, which they truly are working to eliminate through the elimination of government control, they unfortunately will gain ground with the display by the GSA in Las Vegas, recently.

The behavior of the GSA only increases the belief that all government agencys need to be done away with, in the minds of the American people. The actions and behavior of the GSA in Las Vegas, will be broadcast widely by both the media and the Republicans who have tried hard to promote the idea that it is President OBama and the Democrats who favor big spending and waste in government. Of course, that is just another lie but they will take it and run unless the Democrats can prove that the same was going on during the Bush years. At any rate they will deny it anyway. Too many of us will buy into the idea of the Democrat’s spending long before we recognize that “We the People” are the government and without it the middle class becomes much more vulnerable to the class rule that the Tea Party truly favors.

Without government and Unions to protect us; with the Tea Party spread of the lies of voter fraud, they will continue making it more difficult for us to vote;with their “stand your ground laws” they are promoting the right to the return of vigilantes who shot people who said anything they didn’t like and called it self defense; with their legalization of prostitution they will sell more foreign women and young girls into prostitution; with their inflaming the belief of liberals destroying religious rights insane laws will continue to protect their rights against the rest of the citzenry of Americans and the ways in which they are slowly eroding our rights through their propaganda and lies will continue.

If we the voters do not wise up and do it quick then we will continue being the 99% who are denied our freedoms and rights, while sliding further into poverty by these John Birch Society beliefs that are being promoted by the Tea Party.

I will close then with this,Anyone who thinks that the Tea Party promoter of hate against President OBama, as an active Marine, is entitled to promote his hate on Facebook, then I encourage you to go on FaceBook and say the same thing about your boss and see how long you keep Your job. Also anyone who believes that the 1% should not pay their fair share, I remind you that your vote for any or all Republicans, will testify to the fact that you do stand with the 1%.

Its time to stop the lies and in doing so to stop the Tea Party movement that would destroy the Democracy that makes America great. Freedom is Democracy and the reason so many have shed blood and died, so we all could remain in charge of the rights that our Constitution insures. The young people who have shed that blood and made those sacrifices are neither Democrats or Republicans but are of all races,creeds,colors, and gender. Its time we as citizens support the very reason we are free and get rid of this movement that poisons the freedom for all of us. We are at our strongest and greatest as Americans when we join together. We must educate ourselves to defeat all of those who would destroy both Democracy and freedom, before we vote. When we do, I am confident that we all will throw them out in November.
