TGIF ….&some News
Today our President is making stops in Maryland and Virginia talking about small business, keeping voters stirred up to vote for the Democratic Party on Nov. 2nd and let Americans know that things are getting better. I am biased but if people would just listen be more aware they will start to understand and put the dots together about why the improvement has been a series of starts and stalls for the last 20 months and vote for the Democratic Party to continue the move into the 21st Century.
I was watching CNBC this morning then all of a sudden there were awful reports of various packages and threats of bombs on various fed-ex planes but our security people responsible for keeping us safe seemed to have done exactly what they were suppose to do so i feel safe.
I hope everyone who has checked out the Washington State’s voters guide is getting the info they need to vote wisely and without stress. It makes me feel great that literally, 100’s of people have taken the time to look through it from here … again, take the time to read the initiatives closely and obviously VOTE for Sen. Patty Murray, she is fighting for all of our best interests!
This morning a guest named Justin appeared on CNBC -an entrepreneur and owner of a business that is going to be hiring new people because his business is doing so well. It all sounded great until you hear him say some things that seemed quite un-American to me and while he can do what he wants it was a sad awakening to know people will take money(loans/tax credits etc) from the government then turn their backs on them to run right of center for cover. My problem with this guy began when he remarked that while he is going to hire new folks because of the ultimate need, he was thinking about waiting until after the mid-term elections to do so. If that was not bad enough, seemingly on cue or by surprise Mark Haynes asks him if the elections will dictate to when and how many people he will actually hire say the difference between five or so…i paraphrase but Justin’s response is yes. I have to say this was an offensive revelation for me because his reasons did not include being concerned about the possibility of his taxes being raised, how much or how high, but he did imply that getting more right of center folks in Congress definitely being an aspect for wanting to wait. If you are listening, guests like Justin and CNBC talking heads seem to confirm that small business as well as the bigger corporate entities have waged war on this President and have a complicit relationship with the Republican Tea Party. I will admit i did not watch the entire show but what i did see and hear during the Haynes set upset me. Then an older guy came on named Kudlow, who obviously is a right of center talkinghead on CNBC made comments today about how Republicans should ride things out until after the elections which also confirmed for me his right of center TV Activism being done on CNBC. I have to say watching his right of center activism on tv was actually more offensive than the information coming out of the mouths of the CEO’s he has trotting out on his set on almost a daily basis making comments about how they will continue to outsource to Mexico and China because it is cost efficient for their businesses. The show was and is obviously offensive and begs the question, has CNBC taken a hard right or were they always right of center and now are providing a platform for small and large businesses acting out against the Obama administration. This show helped confirm the sad Joke still being played on Americans by those who are involved with the market, small and big corporations helping or throwing money …secret money at political campaigns hoping to gain back the ability to go back to deregulate the Banks, Wall Street, AIG types and other right of center entities. The problem becomes clear when we have Republican Politicians stating small and big corporate businesses are the ones we should be depending on because they hire thus they need the Bush tax cut giveaways to continue their ability to hire. The fact is they probably are hiring it just isn’t their fellow Americans but folks in China and Mexico and if they are saying this now what makes anyone believe it will be any different after Congress goes back to work and legislation regarding Jobs gets on the floor. I have to say while being enlightened, angry, and sad one thing i know for sure is that those Bush tax giveaways for the top 2% need to end ASAP with the focus exclusively on the Middle and Lower classes. We all heard the Republican Tea Party leaders say they have no plans to cooperate and or compromise let alone we all know they do not have any solutions or plans that will get all Americans back on track right. So, tt is also important to ask yourself before voting: what happened to our democracy when clearly the near collapse of our economy was a non-partisan event and while Americans needed Congress on both sides of the aisle to work together the Republican Tea Party has had tunnel vision for 2o months ignoring, forgetting nor caring that their job is to do the peoples business … that should be enough for anyone to vote against the Republican Tea Party –

Today is not just the first day of October; my dad if alive would be celebrating his 94th birthday fishing; needless to say i probably would be there with him and later it would be fresh seafood and a flan for desert. RIP dad. The leaves here in the 206 are changing colour even more than last month and while the weather is always a mixed bag with a chance of rain the folks who know say the 206 will be in the high 70’s by the end of the day… ahhh the dog days of summer are still here tho waning away.
I feel the need to breathe deep in reaching up to the sky then slowly release your breath through your nose and repeat when needed.
It’s Friday and President Obama’s schedule will be busy as changes to his administration, fundraising for democratic candidates continue. This is a day of shake-ups and announcements in the White House what with Rahm leaving, Elena Kagan‘s Supreme Court’s investiture ceremony is on Friday, Thad Allen transfers his authority off to another while the folks in Congress run to their own states to campaign like it’s their last. The President has been out there on the campaign trail trying to educate, inform and get folks left of center to understand what is at stake if we do not get off our arse and vote. I do not know about other states but most people here vote by mail, which works out for me because you can peruse the pamphlet take you time to understand the issues, props, or initiatives and then vote it private and send it right back, you can even check to see if your vote was counted online. It is a great system.
It is also the day before the One Nation Rally the 10-2-10 event and at first glance it was exciting. The idea that so many people wanted to take the time to organize an event that would not just show solidarity for those of us who are left of center. The event would also be a moment to show our support, and express what has been done so far by the Obama administration and what still needs to get done if the changes we all voted for can become a realization was and still is an amazing feat. However, the last few weeks have made me slightly apprehensive. I am appreciative that progressives, liberals others have been willing and able to not just come together but invest money in the rally but is this a rally of support or will folks get on stage and suddenly talk bad about our President in ways that will sabotage the November election. The mid-term elections usually are not a big deal because normally the changes only affect folks in their own states; this is going to affect everyone because the issues are on a Federal level the changes will affect everyone. It is important that we all need to understand why the stakes are so high. In 2008 53% voted to change the status quo now those votes are now at risk and while changing the status quo should be the issue that holds this Democratic Party together the fact is some of the more left of center did not get their way and are now in the News almost on a daily basis. I get it and I understand freedom of speech, I just do not want to hear so much of the negative on national TV because it could give the Republican Tea Party an edge it could mean votes though if it meant losing votes that easily then they clearly were not left of center at all. So, keep it real keep it fresh and keep the negative under control.
Definitely excited to see the 10-2-10 event on national television I will also be waiting to count the numbers of barbs thrown at our President while watching. I am hoping that the backstabbing, subliminal messages kept at a low level. Is that too much to ask for?
