Obama Gives Away the Store
I have said much about the crook in the White House. It is said
better here. The Republican and Democratic Parties are
simply the political means of shifting wealth from the people to the
corporations. The time to get rid of these institutions is
now. Take -- AND KEEP the pledge
NEVER TO VOTE DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN AGAIN. If you can't
vote for a legitimate political party, say, the Greens, than boycott
elections. Here's what you do. You go to your polling
place; have them check your name off as having come to vote;
when you're given a ballot, return it saying, "Why would I waste my
vote on these people? Where's real choice? What kind of
democracy is this?" or words to that or similar effect. It seems
to be truer than ever that, if voting changed anything, it would be
outlawed.
For those who voted for Obama as a peace candidate and the
reformer of health care, fess up: admit you made a mistake, or that
you've been duped. Then, get angry, and tell him that you
dislike being made into a sucker. This is the most devious
politician to come along in a long time -- maybe ever. Don't
worry about being lumped with Tea baggers. You won't be, least
of all by these tea-bagger idiots, who are in the pay of the same
people as Obama. Say no to government by and for the
corporations. Say yes to taking this country away from
corporations, and giving it back to the people.
Send 'em the bill
Americans are getting sick and tired of the Congressional battles over
health care reform, especially as it looks as though the
corporate powers, with the help of Republicans, the President, and the
Blue Doggies are going to win. I think I've come up with a way
to get some action from the Congress. Let's start sending
members of Congress our medical, insurance, and drug bills, whether
they are for true reform (single-payer) or not. The ones against
might get the message (though that may not be the case for the brain
dead); the ones for can use this as ammunition in the struggle.
Enough of this sort of thing clogging up their mailboxes may mean that
there is no space left over for the cash from corporate
lobbyists. See what happens. You have little to lose but
stamps and an envelope or box. Better yet, go together with
friends.
Yes: we CON
Obama conned the country into the belief that health care reform would
come with his administration. It's a lie. We'll be lucky if
things aren't even worse after he gets done cutting deals with drug
companies, insurance companies, and hospital chains.
The performance of this lying, cheating con man SHOULD be enough
to make all you so-called "progressives" out there think twice about
EVER supporting the Democrats again. Obama is a right-wing
stooge of corporate America. Take politics back into the streets
where things get done. Waiting for the Best Congress Money Can
Buy and Mr. Barack-the-Con-man to get reform won't work, now that they
don't need to scare any of us into electing them until next
November. Pound them and the President with the message:
Americans want single-payer, and if the insurance companies and the
drug pirates don't, too bad.
Better yet: stop paying for health care, drugs, or insurance
until there is change. Shred your bills, and send in demands to
get your co-pays back. Send your medical bills to
your Congress Member or Senator, especially if you have a Re-piglican,
or one of the Blue Dog sons of bitches (or Blue Bitches, as the case
may be).
The Democratic Party is, pure and simple, one half of the party
of corporate America. It is NOT the peoples' party. It does the
dirty work of thieves and scoundrels.
Create a no chump zone
It is time here in the USA that the people stop taking it. We've
seen the Congress and the President transfer wealth to the wealthy,
leaving little but no-interest bank accounts and unemployment for
everyone else. We see more and more war brought to us by the
"Peace Candidate". We have the same "Peace Candidate" in his
guise as the Health-Care-Reform Candidate selling Americans' health
out to the drug companies and the insurance companies, in spite of
saying
in 2003. Now he threatens people who support
single-payer health care, and is promoting a Big Pharma and Big
Insurance bailout scheme, that won't give everyone health-care
coverage. The politicians are not helping. They are in the pay
of people who have not one iota of our best interests at heart.
They are getting Congress to facilitate the further looting of the
rest of us. All that idiot effort to elect Obama and the
Democrats in 2008 was a waste. They are some of the leading hired
hands of corporate America. There are some other things that
could have been done, though, and could still do.
- You could have supported the Green Party, and made sure that the media covered them and other parties, and that your state's election authorities put them on the ballot.
- You could have hit the streets about the Wall Street bailout.
- You could have put the hard questions to Obama and company, especially as his positions on the Iraq occupation, health care, and the rest began to alter and look more like the Bush-Clinton-Bush positions.
- You could have been like Iranians, Ukrainians, and others who get really mad when they've been cheated or when they've been had.
- You can, even now, send a letter, e-mail, or bunch of flowers to your local, state, and national Democratic Party headquarters, and tell them that you will NEVER, EVER support, contribute, or vote for them again, because they are liars, tricksters, and frauds.
Yes we can, and Will: Keep on killing and torturing.
Obama supporters, especially those of you who voted for him as a peace
candidate: are you satisfied?
Obama is now supporting an amendment to the Freedom of
Information Act which would keep the pictures of torture secret.
Obama is signing us on to war way past the time of his
administration, even if it goes two terms.
Obama is appointing hawks to important positions: Rep.
John McHugh, and Lt. Gen. Stanley McChrystal. The general is
apparently friendly to torture.
Obama is in favour of leaving some detainees in American prison
camps forever, without due process, as they are a "threat to national
security". How can a few people be a threat to the most powerful
country in the world? Imagine yourself detained forever,
especially by a country whose constitution paved the way in the world
against such things. Obama no more gives a damn for the
Constitution than any of his recent dog-shit predecessors.
Obama, where war is concerned, is Bush not-so-lite.
Let's start now, building a political movement APART FROM THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY!! They are a war party, a corporate party, and a
party that condones torture, no matter what they might say to the
contrary.
Yes we can...the chant of the chumps.
