The entire last presidential campaign was nothing but a slick corporate con job, which is why we have ended up with a slick corporate health bill, and the slick corporate graphics and the slick corporate slogans are all we are going to get until we DEMAND something different.
For the last couple election cycles, the Democratic "leadership" has been pitching that if we would just elect more Democrats, then they could finally get something done for the American people. What is transparently clear now is that if they only needed ZERO votes to pass a public option, they could not even come up with those. Whatever the required number, they would find some way to fall short in the end.
So what we are left with is a bill that is so despicable at its bottom line, forcing all of us to buy corporate insurance under penalty of the IRS, with no meaningful option that might actually save us any money, that they are trying to find a way to sneak it through so that nobody is actually on record voting for it. That is how utterly ashamed they themselves are of what they are doing.
And by the way, the blue doggy Democrats who ARE voting against it are against it not because it does too little for the people, but because it does too MUCH!!
Which brings us to the Republicans, who have gleefully done everything they could in the last year to grind the entire business of government to a halt, with an unparalleled number of Senate filibusters over even the most mundane matters, tying up hundreds of bills even approved by large "bipartisan" margins in the House. And all for the unabashed and declared purpose of paralyzing our legislature so that the American would experience so much pain and anger that they might exploit that to get back into power.
This must not happen.
There must arise in every district of the country strong independent candidates for office, and the people must organize themselves to rally behind the best and most worthy independent challengers. And then ALL incumbents without exception must be removed from office in the next election possible.
We have barely 7 months to do it before the next general election, and we'd better get on it. The social media network we need is in fully in place on the Facebook site with 300 million members. The basic conversational resource tools are there, and we have created our own astounding new application functions through the Voices tool. All we are asking you to do is go there and talk among yourselves to get this thing started, and let's get it together folks.
