The Republicans released their “Pledge to America” if they regain control of Congress later this year. It’s full of the same old same old rhetoric you’d expect from the selfish GOP, such as extending the Bush tax cuts. It omits how it’s going to pay for them as well as what they plan to do about entitlement programs (like Medicare and Social Security). They also want to overturn the Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act (health care reform) the Dems passed earlier this year. Furthermore, they want to put an end to the stimulus.
I just have to wonder, when HCR starts going into effect and the American people FINALLY see the good it will do, will the GOP jump on the bandwagon like most of them did with the stimulus? Or with the auto bailout?
I’d also like to know who’s buying Newt Gingrich’s recent comments? Seriously, is that guy off his rocker or what?
What scares me is that people actually listen to and believe it. I know a few of them myself. They’re anti-Muslim, far right conservatives who actually buy into these scare tactics. They preach that Muslims are going to take over our country, that we’re beginning to implement Sharia Law, they think Obama wants socialism, they think this country to be founded on Christian beliefs, and they actually believe Fox News to be factual.
And they think I’m wrong when I dispute their “facts”!
I try to see the other side of things, but I can’t even wrap my mind around it… To think that our country is in serious jeopardy and ready to be taken over. Who do these people really want their country back from? Last I checked, we as AMERICANS still had it.
I actually had one guy tell me to hell with the Bill Of Rights if it stops Muslims from building a Mosque near Ground Zero. What are some people in this country becoming and when will they stop? What could be next? Showing up to rally’s wearing KKK clothing?
I asked Bing why it wasn’t XHTML 1.0 compliant and this is what it said:
Sounds like what you’d expect from a search engine made by Microsoft. Begs the question of how Bing is any better than Google or Yahoo? FAIL.
Here’s who I think will go to the playoffs in 2010:
AFC:
New York Jets
Baltimore Ravens
Indianapolis Colts
Denver Broncos
New England Patriots
Houston Texans
NFC:
Dallas Cowboys
Minnesota Vikings
New Orleans Saints
San Francisco 49ers
Green Bay Packers
Washington Redskins
Yeah, that’s right, I said it. Skins, baby! The AFC I think is still a lot more powerful than the NFC. It’s pretty hard picking who’ll go from the AFC. I think the Texans have a good shot this year. The Colts are getting older. I could see the Bengals going, too, as a wild card. The NFC is so scrambled right now. I wouldn’t put the Vikings on there if Favre didn’t come back. I’d keep an eye on the Falcons, too. Cardinals are out since Weirner retired. San Francisco might have a good shot.
How I did in 2009:
AFC: 2/6
NFC: 4/6
