OT and Political

The motorcycle trip to Arizona is alive and well.. One thing is for sure
We'll be back well before Nov 7th.. That's voting day..

This election has become a comedy or tragedy, whichever way you choose
to view it..

Coming out of Washington, DC .. Air Force One and Two have been flying
almost daily, in order for the president and vice president to fulfill their
campaign schedules.. Private carriers have also been flying at unprecedented
capacities with Senators and Congressmen scurrying here and there to support
their candidates.. hmmmm.. Who is picking up the tabs for all this
political
campaigning ?

Conflicting stories are being spouted on a daily basis, while it seems the
White House is scrambling to coherently appeal to an ever questioning voting
public.. Rumsfeld makes a statement one day.. (whoever voted for this
idiot,
anyway).. A day later, the president or vice president contradicts
Rumsfeld's
idotic comments, so he tries to adjust with another statement.. This time,
the
military generals dispute everything that he says.. whew.. That's
confusing..

Kay Bailey Hutcheson ads are popping up all over the place, her talking
about her effective representation for everybody but Caesar's goat..
Hell.. Ol' Kay is bragging about all she's done for veterans, seniors and
the
children.. Whoops.. Kay Bailey Hutcheson has voted along party lines for
every Bill that has been proposed by the White House, no matter how
disastrous
that Bill was for her constituents.. Consider.. she has voted with the party
when
funding for the VA was being chiselled by the party.. She voted with her
party
for the closing of the VA Hospital in Waco.. She has voted with her party
for the funding for education Bills were on the floor.. She voted with her
party
when the catastrophy and pharmaceutical welfare Bill was proposed.. Those
seniors in her district are paying the consequences for that vote while the
drug manufacturers are making obscene profits from them.. Her votes on the
Immigration reform Bills are nothing more than rubber stamp votes to
confound
the issue.. No matter how many photo-ops she's taken advantage of.. to be
posed
in faux military garb while she is surrounded by members of our military..
Kay
Bailey Hutcheson has voted against pay raises and benefits for those members
and their dependents.

Rick Perry has discovered that there is a border down there somewhere in
Texas.. hmmm somewhere near Mexico, if his information is accurate..
Not a peep from him about immigration reform, until it became apparent
that he's going to need some more support if he expects to win this
election..
Chris Bell is closing strong .. hmmm.. With his record during the evacuation
of the Houston area during the hurrican Katie fiasco.. maybe Goodhair is
onto
something.. He can sure cause gridlock on the highways.. But.. he's made a
couple of impressive campaign ads about all the immigration measures that
he's taking ..

Like George W.Bush,,, Rick Perry is making committments that are almost
comical.. He's making accusations against his opponent that are incredible..
Besides that.. there isn't one dime of funding in place for any ot his
promises..


The Fence Bill was signed into law by Bush, this week.. Much toodoo in the
Rose Garden and it was all smiles and handshakes when he affixed his
presidential signature with a flourish.. Whups.. it's a law now, but
nothing
in that law says anything about funding it.. Now what ? It's a damned law,
but where's the dough coming from ?

Dick Cheney is lumbering around with his pre-selected audiences and talking
about the issues of torture/water boarding .. etc. Hell .. it's a no
brainer
to him.. Torture those suckers ..Never mind the outrage of Americans when
our people were tortured, beheaded and killed by those heathen terrorists..
Cheney is pronouncing America on the same level as the enemies that he,
Bush and Rumsfeld have created..

It's high time for some serious changes in our country, and we better be
about
it, in November, if we expect America to ever be the nation it once was..

And you honestly think replacing them with liberal democrats will
change anything?

Our country hasn't been what it once was since Ronald Reagan was in
office.

TexGEOas

 

I "honestly" think that Americans can't stomach any more of the corruption
and sleaze (that's Republicans, just in case you haven't noticed) running
our
government now.. 'Nuff said..

Sorry.. haven't noticed Reagan is running for anything, this year.. Not to
mention that he's been dead for a while.. <chuckle> Maybe you can write
him in on your ballot..

Hopefully.. this mess will commence to clean up.. Maybe Americans are
finally
fed up with corruption and sleaze.. Make no mistake about it.. All of us,
Republicans
and Democrats alike.. sure need representation in our government..

I've repeatedly avowed that I'm a Democrat.. but, that doesn't mean that I
have
any more use for a corrupt Democrat than I do for a corrupt Republican..
Matter
of fact, I've gone after some of our corrupt Democrats and been responsible
for
them either being beat at the polls or withdraw from their races..

As far as I know.. that is unheard of from any Republican that I know, in
this state..

Some of the Republican leaders in our Texas government have been men with
itegrity and represented their constituents well.. That's the kind of
representatives
I'd like to see win office.. Regards

Why wait on the Feds to do it??? This group, the Minuteman group, has been
busy building it. Link is below for the website with reports on progress and
etc.
