GOP Overreach: The Mess That Greed and Ignorance Made

David A. Love: GOP Overreach: The Mess That Greed and Ignorance Made

In this last election cycle, the Grand Overreaching Party seized control of the U.S. House of Representatives and state legislatures and governorships around the country on a platform of jobs, balanced budgets and fiscal responsibility. It took not so long before conservatives revealed their true intentions.On the federal level there was the sideshow of Rep. Peter King's (R-NY) hearings on radical Islam. People are foreclosed upon, out of money, out of luck and suffering out there, but what do the Republicans decide to go after? NPR and Planned Parenthood, and rape victims who want an abortion. On the state level there is the ban on Sharia law and the war on the unemployed. There are birther bills, bills to eliminate birthright citizenship, and voter ID legislation to deal with the nonexistent issue of voter fraud. Michigan Governor Rick Snyder represents the epitome of overreaching, with new powers to dissolve municipal governments, throw out union contracts, and eliminate school districts.

And in states such as Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana Pennsylvania and Ohio, talk of shared sacrifice really has meant one-way sacrifice, with cuts to programs for the poor and working people and no demands made on the wealthy. In a perverse fashion, devastating cuts in education and health are paired with equally generous tax breaks to corporations, as if no one is looking and this grave crime being committed has no witnesses. Let's not forget the attack on unions' collective bargaining rights under the guise of deficit reduction. Now, that was diabolically slick of them.

Facts, not fiction.

 

[The Rabbi]

The only fact here is that you are the biggest moron on this board.

The GOP did not "seize control". They were elected by the people after the gross over-reach by the Dems, culminating in an orgy of spending, irresponsiblity in not passing a budget, and the least popular program rammed through Congress. Nice work, guys.

The GOP told us exactly what they were planning.

I may not like their plan, (in fact I think it's evil) but it isn't like they've been lying about it.

As stupid as the GOP is, the real blame lies with the impatient retards who always immediate change without solidly supporting anyone. The shit we are seeing today has always been what the GOP stood for, this is what they've always wanted, deficit or no deficit, so people got what they voted for unless they were too retarded to know the political history of the country.

I may not like their plan, (in fact I think it's evil) but it isn't like they've been lying about it.

Now that isn't entirely true. Governor Wanker and his other right wing tool governors did NOT say they were going to decimate collective bargaining. They clearly over-reached. Quickest case of buyers remorse ever is going on in states like Wisconsin and Ohio. Silver lining is that these Republican/Tea Bagger governors are making sure those states go as blue as a smurfs ass come 2012.

making public sector employees pay a little bit more for their benefits = decimating? Get a grip, and get out of fantasy land you tool.

I don't know about that Seawytch.

The GOP has a LONG LONG LONG history of laothing unionism.

And while they might not have specifically stated that they planned on ending collective bargaining, given that collective bargaining is the bedrock fundamental of unionism, I'd say that they've been telling us for decades that they'd like to end it.

The GOP is evil, but it is not (at least as it pertains to unions) hypocritical.

If you knew the political history you would realize that the dimwits are socialists. The republicans are doing what the voters want not the socialists which makes libs mad, go cry a river.

Bullshit, but the way the GOP spins shit, asking the richest 2% to pay more taxes is decimating job creation and stopping these rich 2% from giving to charities. Who stands to be hurt more, the teachers or thr richest 2%?

 

[Old Rocks]

Well, the present GOP and the Teabaggers are certainly making socialism look attractive.

what you call the "rich" earned their money, these public sector workers are trying to STEAL money from taxpayers. There is a big difference and you always going back to rich-envy just shows your true character, a cowardly fool who needs to be sucked off by the government instead of helping yourself and paving your own way.

The real evil party is the DNC. They support socialism in the name of helping people. This country was founded on the right that you have to make a better life for yourself not the gov't. taking care of you.

LOL, yeah, all that isn 3 MONTHS.
and you have a crystal ball, can you tell me what lotto numbers are coming up?

 

[Liberty]

oh and fyi, the rich people you hate create jobs. So, you wanting to STEAL their money will just make them lay people off. Nice to see you want high unemployment, Faylo, you fucking moron.

Rocks..............political IQ fAiL....................

s0n..........get back to your environmental trolling. When you spend two decades in a fcukking forest, you end up with the permanent political IQ of a handball. Your far left opportunity came two years ago and the bozo's fcukked it up of course..........an epic sliver of time in the course of American history.

Perhaps you should turn of the Fox lying channel for a minute. The unions had already made concessions and agreed to increase their cost shares. Going after collective bargaining wasn't about making them pay more for their benefits...they'd already agreed to do that.

While that is certainly true, Wanker could not have RUN on that and won, especially not in Wisconsin. Clearly and over reach in order to give a reach around to the Koch brothers.
