To the Dustbin of History

What I want to see is the Republican Party shunned into the dustbin of history. And why shouldn’t they be? The have taken a very public stand that anything not Republican, i. e. anything Obama is bad. This is the height of stupidity. And it is troubling for the future of the United States.

The GOP says they are against the Stimulus plan because it has too much pork in it. Remember those Stimulus plans approved by the Republicans when Bush was still in? Up around $2 Trillion and nobody knows where it went? And Paulsen, who was appointed by Bush, says he ain’t telling.

It would appear that the Republicans are hoping the public forgets the Bush record over the last eight years. But I’m going to remind you of it right now.

During the eight years of Bush the Long-term liabilities (that’s deferred debt) of the United States increased approximately $50 Trillion. And the Annual (short term) debt usually referred to as the National Debt increased about $7 Trillion during those eight years. And then there is the matter of the Stimulus passed by the Bush bunch that I just mentioned above, that will ultimately amount to about $3 Trillion.

Those three things bring together total to about $60 trillion. In a comment on one of the blogs last week I noted that 60 trillion is 60,000 Billion, or to put it in perspective if you had that amount to spend, and you began to spend 8 million dollars a day beginning with the day Jesus Christ was born, and you continued to spend that 8 million each day until today, you would have about 2,000 Billion left to spend, or about 170% of what Obama is proposing to spend in all of his Stimulus bills. Now all that happened during the Bush eight years. But that’s just the money.

There’s the approval of torture, spying on you and me, starting wars to profit special interests instead of to protect the country, getting rid of Habeas Corpus, paying of reporters to propagandize (bet you forgot that one already), secret prisons, renditions, lying to the citizens, and even all that doesn’t address the people killed ( over a million ) to appease the profit hungry blood suckers.

You know the NeoCons. And they sacrificed America’s world standing as the beacon of justice, honor, moral dealings, ethical behavior, etc, and ad-infinitum. And still, the GOP faithful support this sewer of an Administration.

For all those reasons above is why I call for the end of the GOP. They have surrendered the moral conscious needed to represent us. What they represented for the past eight years and, it appears, what they still represent is depraved governance. I do not and will not stand for such. I ask all moral people to join my protest and never again vote for a Republican Candidate for office.

All parties that survive the Republican demise will get the message.
