Debate If You Dare, No One Is Blocked
I don’t agree with President Obama on all things. I think he has moved to the right to appease Republicans and has not been able to produce results from doing so. He still is the best choice we have.
All contenders for the Republican nomination have positions that do not favor you and me, the common man or woman. They don’t have any plan to create jobs. They want to continue to deregulate and give tax breaks to the rich and corporations. That has not proven to create jobs, it has in fact, created the most of the problems that we are facing.
He has not yet revealed his jobs initiative and yet we have Republicans stating they will not even listen and other people claiming they already know what he is going to say. It is sad, but I feel that any plan he has is DOA in Congress. The Republicans will not allow it to happen even if it benefits the American people.
This debate must use facts to back up what you claim. Opinions are like assholes and we all have one. Common sense is not allowed either because it has been proved that it is not common.
Show facts to back up what you claim. If you don’t have any facts, you don’t have an argument.
It appears that some people are afraid of the truth and block people who speak the truth. Yes you blockers are allowed on my blog. I am not afraid as you appear to be and allow you to refute if you can.
Obama just sent EPA smog regulations to the chopping block in a move that is scientifically guaranteed to cause premature death in many city dwellers. If that didn’t win him points with Republicans, nothing will.
The ghost of Reagan could rise up out of his grave and award him a blue ribbon at the Iowa state fair and they’d still think he was the antichrist. But then that’s just my opinion. 😉
I’m curious to see if Eric Cantor is going to hold spending cuts hostage in exchange for relief funds for the Texas wildfires like he wanted to over Hurricane Irene. Something tells me Rick Perry’s state won’t have any problem getting more funds. But then he’s already received 25 FEMA grants already this year.
The GOP Candidates stated they are vowing to carry the Tea Party Banner…

This proves they have no clue how to govern and make their own conclusions on how to show America they actually have a brain and can think of a reasonable and logical plan to restore the economy and put people back to work? If they can’t do that one thing thing …what can they do about the many other issues that even Obama hasn’t been able to address because of their constant “NO” policy!
And far as them wanting “Free Markets” and over turning Obama’s Health-care is insane and STUPID!
Free Markets…being totally free… let’s ask many cancer patients who are currently receiving (or trying to) therapy.
Many of the older chemo medications work well for certain types of cancers, but the numbers of patients who come down with those types of cancers each year or have recurrence has been waning–in effect, making the ‘markets’ shrink for the pharmaceutical companies who own the patents or who make the medications. Big Pharmacy has been discontinuing many of the drugs over the years, causing severe shortages across the country and–in some hospitals–the supply has been used up.
The FDA, some big-name hospitals, the Obama White House, etc., are working with Big Pharmacy to seek some deals so the supply is more steady for all who need it. Recently, many patients who were in therapy actually had to suspend their treatment because of shortages.
Many patients who sought out treatment elsewhere (than from their normal place of treatment) ended up paying as much as five to ten times more than usual–because others needed it as well. This is an unconscionable position to put these patients and their doctors all in the name of the almighty dollar.
Free Markets don’t work for everything. I believe the pharmaceutical industry is profitable enough and large enough to not allow anything such as this. This scenario is playing out with other medications today all across our country–even heart medications the ERs use to stop heart attack damage, etc., and common sedation drugs used for surgeries. We are facing a quiet, newer type of crisis is America due to the Free Market — and Big Pharmacy has known about this for years, and has stood by idly and allowed it to happen.
It is all about the Bottom Dollar. Think about that the next time you call the ambulance for your loved one. Or your sister needs chemo for breast cancer treatment, and two of the drugs the oncologist recommends are the old stand-bys because they work best for her type!
LATER!!!!!!!!!!!!Great blog John :love: !
Since it now seems that the Repukelicans will block anything that comes from the Obama administration, even if it would clearly benefit our jobs crisis, I expect the rest of this year to be a demonstration of how, as McConnell said, the goal of this congress is to make Obama a one term president. In that effort, the right wing is shooting itself, and our country, in the foot. And people remember their obstructionism come 2012.
The Republican Party became the party of NO right from the get go just as they said they would. He tried to work with them (too often IMHO) and they shot him in the foot everytime it mattered to any large segment of our population. I have a feeling that as far as the Republican Party is concerned that will be the standard operating procedure with any President that is not one of their own from now on. That’s just one of my many opinionated reasons that I will more than likely never vote for a Republican candidate again. I’m taking Nancy Reagan’s advice and just saying “NO”.
Sorry, while this was on topic, it was completely based on my common sense and personal opinion which cannot be supported with any facts that I want to take the time to go search for right now. 😉 :love:
In all respect how can you say Obama has moved to the right? He has not moved in the middle yet. He is extreme left….more so then most democrats. mari ana
