Wow! Just listen to the economic proposals the republicans have in mind. At a time when they decry gigantic budgety deficits, they still want to not only extend the Bush era tax cuts for the rich, but they intend to propose even more! That is just too incredible to believe!
But if you think that's incredible, what is more incredible is how working class people are going to their town hall meetings and their primaries and voting for them in droves. What is it about the republicans who want to give money away to seemingly every country on the face of the earth but refuse to help our own citizens, yet they can get such a large amount of people to vote against their own best interests. The truth is they have become quite good at it. They use wedge issues and coded words that appeal to bigots and anything else they have at their disposal and it works almost to the point of brilliance. This time however I believe the American people will finally take their heads out of the sand and finally see what's going on. The fact that Mr. Ralph Nader, former Louisiana governor Buddy Roemer and Mr.Ron Paul have shone a light on their foreign policy, the trade situation,and foreign aid that is hurting our economy seems to be having some effect. But will they continue to pay attention or will they return to listening to FOX Nerws for all their mis-information? Only time will tell. But this one thing I can tell, if they continue to believe the republican version of what's in store for the future, theirs won't be that good. More tax cuts for the rich is not what is needed. Tax revenue is.
