mindful Monday &some News …VOTE DEMS Nov.2nd


President Obama will be holding meetings with the economic recovery board today.

I would like to encourage all those people who have not Registered to Vote to do so before the end of the day because 10-4-10 is the last for anyone living in Washington State. The need to get out the vote in big numbers on Nov.2nd is not just because tea party members are ahead in quite a few races but we are also competing with Corporate $$ and the decision made by The Supreme Court; specifically Justice Roberts has made it possible for  interest groups or Corporations are out spending our Party 7 to 1… incredible and offensive.

This is a pivotal moment, the midterm elections are usually important on the local level but what happens in this years mid-term elections will affect all of our futures in the Democratic Party. We need to get what I call true democrats on the floor of Congress if we are going to achieve that change 53% voted for in 2008. It is my hope that people who are on the fence or those who are frustrated with the Republican Tea Party become educated with what the Democratic party offers and what The Republican Tea Party is doing to us not for us. If you listen to the media rhetoric the message that democrats have to offer gets lost with conservative talking points and poll numbers that clearly are subject to a plus/minus. I watched a political program this weekend and the host stated he had Republicans last week so they would now have the other side’s view, which was fine until he brought on a completely new panel of conservatives to rehash last week and to bash what his democratic guests had to say. The program controlled every aspect of a true political program; where both sides are able to ask questions show their depth of knowledge and allow the other, side to rebut… of course the host did not want that happening right? Anyway, these shows are all too frequent for me and should give anyone pause. It should confirm the idea that most of these candidates on the right cannot perform if or when challenged by a democrat and they play it safe by refusing to talk  because as we all know you could be caught saying, doing and acting out in ways that might ruin your campaign. I would say all you have to do is ask Meg Whitman and Christine O’Donnell, obviously two women who need to just step down and out of running for office because they are not qualified for public office of any kind. The near collapse of our economy and the effect it has had on all Americans should be considered non-partisan issues and worked on as Americans yet the Republican Tea Party chooses to offer no cooperation while using Americans as pawns to get just enough done in Congress to make their constituents happy. If you are concerned about the lack of work being done by the Republican Tea Party or the fact that they have made the choice to block, stall, and Voted No to everything that would have improved the state of our economy. If you voted to bring Americans into the 21st Century but Republicans are against issues like: a woman’s right to choose, 18 years old and definitely our future leader, eligible for military service, believes in better education, better health care for all Americans, wants better policies regarding human rights, believes in equal rights for women and minorities, and making a solid effort to change the way the last administration ruled then make sure you and your family get their ballots in the mail or caravan to the voting booths early.

Please help Rock the Vote by going on-line to register to vote and find out what issues you will be voting on in your specific area that will affect you and your family.

im just sayin

Sharron Angle


Democrats

After months of watching the GOP‘s extreme candidates say one offensive thing after another, I thought I was done being shocked.

Then I saw new footage of Nevada Republican Senate nominee Sharon Angle attacking laws that require insurance companies to cover those with autism.

“You’re paying for things that you don’t even need,” she said. “They just passed the latest one, is everything that they want to throw at us now is covered under ‘autism’.”

She put “autism” in air quotes — like she doesn’t believe it exists.

If this is what she’s saying on the campaign trail, imagine what she’ll say in the Senate.

We’re hitting back against ideologues like Sharron Angle with ads on the air and messaging on the ground. We’re making sure voters understand the choice they have in this election.

Can you chip in $5 or more to help us amplify that message?

Angle isn’t alone.

In Delaware, Christine O’Donnell has attacked the “horror” of health reform.

In Colorado, Ken Buck has called Social Security “horrible policy.”

In Alaska, Joe Miller has said that Congress must have “courage to shut down the government,” to stop the President‘s agenda.

These ideologues — in states across the country — think they have all the momentum. And their supporters are pouring their energy into the campaigns.

But this is why we’ve built a national program. It’s why we have organizers on the ground in every state.

We just need the resources to finish strong — and continue to show voters what Ken Buck, Sharron Angle, Christine O’Donnell, Joe Miller and a host of other Republicans keep saying.

Today, President Obama will be at a 200-person town-hall meet-up to answer questions and hosted by John Harwood CNBC called “Investing in America” today at noon ET … tune in!

I am very upset that regular Americans are this mad that they don’t seem to care who gets into political power and We the People need to get folks informed, educated and understand that we are at a moment that will decide what happens to ALL of us not a select few it will be what gets us all back on track, will be the America that actually respects the rights given to us by our founding fathers …not the misguided or manipulated ideology the hard right is offering up.

The double standard that is the Republican party not only is very annoying it is offensive and it makes you wonder if the people voting these folks into positions of power care about the rest of us. This last week we hear that the tea party led by unqualified VP candidate and quitter ex-Gov Palin is making strides with several candidates running for Senate. The Republican Party should tell Christine O’Donnell that your past matters. I feel she should stop being a two faced opponent! actually that goes for any candidate on the right running for office  …stop trying to be act or portray yourselves as being better than the rest of us. If you have plans to represent the people you and your past is important and people need full disclosure or at leas enough info to make intelligent choices in the voting booth.

The family values Summit sounded like a new KKK meeting. I say this  because of the extreme comments,behavior and ideologies of those on the right that want to re-dress the civil rights amendment, anchor baby talk, terrorist baby talk, the idea of making Muslims register, the signs at protests and the conversations on radio by Limbaugh, beck and more …these people equal crazy with their purity hard right and so-called orthodox membership requirements … who else can belong and be non-white considering their beliefs? That is my opinion.

It was a disturbing outcome to know anyone would listen to Palin speak let alone understand her cliché-ridden comments disguised as speeches and campaigns. As a woman she does not represent me; she talks about family values but clearly she is not a fan of families otherwise she would not be against what family means in this 21st Century. The 14th amendment covers all of us but she and her pack of religious political extremists want to tell Americans how to run their lives calling them socially responsible people; possibly run our government into the ground. If i am even hearing them correctly the folks on the right want smaller government which means privatizing just about everything and you do not have to be a rocket scientist to know what that will do to the middle and or the lower class. It will kill government jobs. it will divide families. What is it that people have to hear or see in order to understand that Republicans do not have our or their own best interest at heart. In the 90’s Newt and his group managed to shut-down our government and along with costing Americans 800 million dollars, we lost a 1 million jobs, police, firefighters which if you have an imagination …think about the chaos and destruction to our already recession ridden country this would create and no one to help keep rule of law in place.

My rant today is about Republicans and the double standard these ugly awful people are about and this includes Christine O’Donnell. There are reports and actual video out there that proves not only is she having financial problems, paid her mom about 3000 for misc duties and was living off the money as well. Then Bill Maher confesses he actually is the one who created O’Donnell as well as a few other conservative female politicos and i get it he knows her and likes her …fine but after everything she and her Political Party of No have said about our President’s religion, family and beliefs hearing her say on camera that she dabbled in things…past present or future is important information that we all  need to take seriously. I am very offended by the fact that not only did O’Donnell cancel all of her appearances she shrugged her shoulders and has made light of it of the things she said, attributing them to being in high school. There are quite a few Republican candidates who have no business in any position of power let alone a Public Servant  serving all Americans …We can be mad at how things are,  you can vote to change the ways things are but to vote for crazy people who definitely have problems and are willing to point at our President as the one who has real issues, is not an American, is a secret Muslim, socialist blah blah blah… is absurd.

It is my opinion that Christine O’Donnell, Sharron Angle Bachmann and the rest of the crazies are liabilities to Americans because they are too extreme, do not believe in equality for all…If they did most of them would not question the intent of the 14th amendment, a woman’s right to choose, immigration civil rights, gays and or religious freedom. To continue; the list of things folks on the right want or will take away from Americans which includes Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid is very long. They want to repeal, shut down the government and stop parents from being able to cover their children with their health-care insurance until they are 26 yrs old. They want to let drs/hosp continue to discriminate against people for having a pre-existing condition. People need to do their homework and get the facts instead of listening to a group of people only giving out the bad side of  HCR. The fact is anything and everything that has a financial association to our government had to be reformed …get informed people
