Break's Over.

Folks fought hard to elect Barack Obama, but he's only one man against a tidal wave of problems and extremists. The honeymoon is over, not just for Barack Obama, but for all of us. For the past 8, or even arguably 40 years, we've been pushing further and further to the extreme right. Terms like "liberal" may get redefined over time, but simply put, power and money rule the world and there is little to no effective governance insuring that we are not subjected further and further to the business of terror and war. In many ways the world united to stem the tide to the right however we may have celebrated our victory too early.

Republicans who couldn't care less about fiscal conservatism under the Bush administraton are now calling the plan to help Americans instead of Iraqis, an outrageous spending program. Judging by polls, Americans are buying it. As long as they get tax-cuts, they don't care what happens.

Your Job:
Wake up and get active. What did you do during the Bush administration? Do more of it. Even TALKING with one another about what's going on is helpful. If you sit back and don't speak out, then the voices in the government's ear are only those pushing us further to the right.

  1. Republicans are so ugly, decrying an Obama based plan "the last straw" after "10 years" of crazy spending. God I hate them. But the US has NEVER had a party on the Left - or not since the Civil War.

    After Abe Lincoln (a Republican) the White South voted democrat till, what, the 1980s? So much so it became known as the "Solid South." The Democratic party had to cater to a conservative voting base for 100 years.

    I WANT A DEMOCRATIC PARTY ON THE LEFT!
