REPUBLICAN CACOPHONY OF TALKING POINTS

AND IT ALL ENDS WITH “CREATE JOBS”

Amazingly, the Republican-Teahadists have the nerve to put that little tag at the end of every pronouncement, every interview, every comment when they haven’t done anything to create jobs; on the contrary; their efforts seems very transparent: it is to actually destroy them.

After the November 2010 election, when Democrats were “shellacked” the American public voted to have all these “fresh” new faces with promises of new ideas and a noble purpose. The voters so far have not gotten any of that. Instead, what they have been regaled with is a series of partisan, culture war, ideological bull shit that the Republican-Tehadists are dishing out in their newly found majority of Congress…but nothing about jobs. On the contrary; it is all about sabotaging the Obama administration and standing in the way of recovery…recovery from a mess they created in the first place and are unwilling to own.

I would like to ask these Republican-Teahadists what part of JOBS, JOBS, JOBS they don’t understand…it is clear that the American people wanted that and they voted so this could be accomplished not so that the Republicans keep sabotaging the economy, going against labor unions and some of the old, tired culture war issues like gays in the military, abortion and the like…The American people ought to be fed up with these antics and if I can calibrate the general feeling out there I would say that with the exception of those die-hard conservatives the American voter is going to deny the Republicans any more victories any time soon.

"The American people's priorities are clear," said Boehner spokesman Michael Steel. "They want to keep the government open, and they want to cut spending." http://is.gd/SzzDFh

Uh. no. Americans have said agan and again their chief priority is JOBS and the the economy. http://is.gd/Xd7Wj4

It is bizarre. For these Republicans, cutting spending is an end in itself. If it costs jobs, well, as House Speaker John Boehner said, "So be it." Amazingly, the Republicans don’t even mention that the reason for any and all budgetary shortfalls is their insistence in cutting taxes or extending them to the very rich and the corporations.

SO BE IT? YOU ARE A HEARTLESS, INCONSIDERATE, INCOMPETENT PUPPET OF THE SUPER RICH MR. BOEHNER.

Today Republicans in Ohio, taking a page from Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's union-busting book, voted to strip collective bargaining rights for thousands of public employees with the passage of S.B. 5, which passed out of the Senate labor committee on a 7-5 vote despite the growing opposition to the bill:

“SO BE IT” – it is not just saying no…Republicans are sabotaging everything

Boehner is not crying for the environment or people losing their jobs

Teahadist-Republicans have only one thing in their minds: TO SABOTAGE THE OBAMA PRESIDENCY.

When the extremist elements of the Republican Party like Tim Pawlenty openly urges their party to keep the prospects of a shutdown alive despite Democratic willingness to compromise, the fundamentals would be in place for a narrative friendly to Democrats—especially when the GOP must defend unpopular cuts.

Despite the potential political adverse effect that such a standoff could bring, the administration is urging Republicans to work on a long-term deal instead of these short-term weekly cuts. But unless the GOP decides to cooperate, and it shows no signs that it will, a long-term deal will be impossible, and within the next few weeks, the very real possibility of Republicans forcing a federal shutdown will return.

Again, the Democrats and the Obama administration, forever bending over backwards to work together with people who don’t want to work at all, they want the hardships and the misery of the American people brought by a government shut down so that they can benefit in the 2012 elections…that is if ignorant people don’t put two and two together and still vote Republican…then they deserve to be mired in poverty and ignorance if they did. .

Bill Scher says it well:

“An Expanding Economy Fixes This

Cutbacks shrink the economy. And expanding economy provides good jobs with good pay and benefits and fixes budget deficits. We want an expanding economy for We, the People, not tax cuts for the rich and cutbacks on the things government does for We, the People. Tax cuts and austerity provide an opportunity for a few to cash out and take off, but does not provide for the rest of us.”

ISAIAH J. POOLE on the Impact Of GOP's Job-Killing Budget Cuts: 700,000 Jobs Lost Mark Zandi of Moody's Analytics today confirms what several other experts are saying about the slash-and-burn budget antics of House conservatives: The budget cuts being pushed by House Speaker John Boehner and the Tea Party-possessed House of Representatives will not put people back to work, They will put people out of work. Zandi's report says: "The House Republicans’ proposal would reduce 2011 real GDP growth by 0.5% and 2012 growth by 0.2%. This would mean some 400,000 fewer jobs created by the end of 2011 and 700,000 fewer jobs by the end of 2012." Zandi's finding tracks a report released last week by Goldman Sachs that the House budget cuts would cause a drop in economic growth of as much as 2 percentage points this year and drive unemployment back up to as high as 10 percent.

The Pulse

Public Says No To Republicans' Slasher-Movie Economics

But it doesn’t matter what the public thinks nor why they voted Republican in the first place…so far what we have seen is a theatrical production of the reading of the Constitution, that is those portions the Teahidist like; holding the unemployment extension hostage so they can extend tax cuts for the very rich, we have seen their insistent attempts at bringing back the culture wars with the abortion issue and repealing DADT. But one of the first things the Republicans did when they took over the House of Representatives was to vote (symbolic only) to repeal Health Care Reform.

Now we are seeing a very organized and perverted effort to demonize, neutralize and eliminate labor unions by several of the Republican Governors in some states. The one thing that our country needs the most is the creation of jobs but they chose instead to destroy them, to actually make things worse for American workers. It is their way of sabotaging the economy, giving President Obama more problems and acting in a very unpatriotic way. What the Republican-Teahadists are doing borders on treason…it is sabotage and we should all recognize it as such…it is the worst kind of terrorism because unlike bombs or bullets this decimates and bring misery to millions of people usually those who are the least able to defend themselves like our seniors the sick, disabled and the children.
