GOP Jumps on Dismal Jobs ReportPosted on Jun 4, 2010
A president’s employment problem is the opposition’s cannon fodder during election season, and Friday’s bad news on employment is giving the GOP some opportunities to lob a few more hits at the Democrats during the lead-in to this fall’s midterm elections. —KA

What’s really sadder is the way the msm set up to play our ONE
Report thisPARTY political system as 2 separate parties trying to outdo,
trying to blame the other, all the quaint adversarial shit that has
the portents of a one of those dull dreary televised sporting
events that are as empty of reality as sugar is of nutrition. Which
makes it even the more sadder that those dumbstream
monkeys, addicted to what the msm feeds them, would not and
could not tell the difference in the numbers 1 party or the
charade of 2 as in the number of political parties living it up on
the taxpayers backs.

Of course the whole disaster rests upon the Republican, right wing and Libertarian ideology that the government shouldn’t regulate or even audit the behavior of business. The result is the Banks stole our money, the corporations stole our jobs and they all together polluted the environment.
Obama’s fault are his too centerist and compromising inclinations. But, the core of this disaster is right wing politics and the right wing has been most aggresive in blocking any real attempt to straighten things out and still Obama keeps looking to them for a reasonable response to a problem they mostly created.
I will ask once again, Why Does the Republican Party hate democracy? Why does the Republican Party hate the American People? And, more to the point why do so many ordinary Americans support these right wing crazies? It is a clear case of cutting off ones nose to spite ones face.

Where was the GOP when we were losing thousands upon thousands of jobs on a daily and weekly basis for over 7 1/2 years when Bush was running the country? Oh, right. That don’t count when we (repukes) do it, we just push the blame onto the other party, the ignorant masses will believe anything we tell them.
After 12 years in office as Governor in Michigan, John Engler left the state of Michigan with the annihilation of most of the manufacturing jobs, and an extremely large debt for the incoming replacement for his job, and nothing positive was done for the state when he was in charge except when he left his post. Yet the repukes always seem to conveniently or selectively forget the mess THEY made of things when they are in charge of state or country and once back in charge, have no answers except to stuff their own pockets and outsource more of our jobs to third world countries.
It is all to often we see that the ones who have made a mess of things, once replaced, immediately point the finger at their successors and complain that things are not fixed with in a month or less-we saw that with Obama, who wasn’t even sworn into office to take over until Jan.21, 2009 and yet we saw people raising hell that he hadn’t fixed this(whatever) by now within days of the election, even though the soon to be former President was still in charge mucking up everything he could think of and more and he did it, but the right wingers never stopped to think that,hey wait a minute,Bush is still in charge until almost the end of January, so actually I should be yelling at the Bush administration at this time. And people after 8 years of incompetency from the GOP party of no nothings you can not expect everything that your party did in the last 8 years to be fixed within a week or less. It will take years and even decades to unto much of the damage your party did to America and the world.

Republicans: Vote for us, we’ll change things.
4 years later
Democrats: Vote for us, we’ll change things.
Repeat every 4-8 years.
I think I’d vote for the corpse of Karl Marx, before ever voting for any Democrat or Republican again.
