Get Out & Vote On Tues Nov. 3rd.
« on: November 02, 2009, 10:44:17 pm »

Be sure to get off your arse & vote Tuesday November 3rd. There are very few political races but these off year elections are the ones you have to watch out for. City governments take advantage of low voter turnout in these types of elections to try to pass new bond & millage proposals that end up costing taxpayers. Very little press is given to these off year elections & it makes it easier for BS like this to be passed with very few votes.

Vote early & vote often.  Grin

The Democrats can't do any worse than the Republicans who had total power in both houses and the presidency from 2000 -2006.

The Republicans had a full 6 years and the manpower to remove anything that Bill Clinton passed while he was in office that they did not like. Instead of removing certain Clinton signed programs and downsizing smaller government, like they promised and preached worse than the Johovah's Witness', The Republicans actually took advantange of those programs and kept abusing them in order to make their own profits.

Another big fiasco that Republiacans want everyone to forget about was their "Contact on America". The first thing they passed under the "Contract on America" was lifting the huge fines and  forced reporting of chemical spills in the Great Lakes, almost making the clean-up volounterily, insteady of manditory like it was. The contract also pleaded with the voters to give them a try and if the voters didn't like the job they were doing was to simply vote them out, which is simply what the voters did!

The Republican Party has also left us with the largest government in history. It is because of those that abuse certain programs and created jobs that never existed before for their friends and their own families, but not available for average working families, While those less fortunate lost their jobs, homes, and savings, That this country is in the shape it's in.

Boom, The Republican's had full control from 2002 to 2006. The Dumbocrats lost the senate in the 2002 election. The control that the Republicans had wasn't nowhere near what the dumbocrats have today. The Republicans tried to reverse Slick Willy's deregulation of the mortgage industry but couldn't do it because they didn't have the 60 votes in the senate to prevent the Dumbocrats from filibustering. The deregulation of the mortgage industry is the main reason we have this financial mess. The Dumbocrats believe that someone making $12,000 a year working at McDonalds deserves to live in a $250,000 house.

Obama & his mob want a one-world economy & currency, which will only lead to America being weak & give more leverage to chit bag third world countries.

Get Rid Of Them All!!

If they have held a single seat while this whole mess started and continued to roll down hill, they are just as guilty by allowing it to happened. Didn't want to get involved is no excuse on this one. And while your taking away their seat, also take away their full life time private heath insurance and their private pension for only serving one term too!

I got a better idea. 2 term limit and no private funding. Fund every congressional race up to xx,xxx dollars. This at least guarantees that the douchebags will eventually get flushed out regarding of political affiliation and prevent career politics. Thats why our country is so jerked up. Too many career politician asswipes. That way, the best, not the best funded  will win.
