who is to thank for the last 8 years?

September 29th, 2008 by stephen h | No Comments | Filed in Links, Thoughts

who campaigned for george w. bush? who voted for his bills in the senate 90% of the time? who voted for the iraq war? who wants to continue wars and start new ones without trying to be diplomatic with america’s enemies and even our allies? who works with and surrounds himself with lobbyists and corporate interests? whose tax plan would give corporations even more of a tax break? that’s right, it’s john mccain, despite the fact that he calls himself a “maverick” and says he will bring change to the white house.

who does he think he’s kidding? -h

about those corporate bailouts your tax money is going to

September 23rd, 2008 by stephen h | 1 Comment | Filed in Discourse, Links, News

…you know, the ones going to fannie mae and freddie mac to the tune of up to $200 BILLION?

guess who’s directly been benefiting from freddie mac to the tune of $15-30 thousand a month – even receiving payments up through last month? none other than john mccain’s lobbyist friend/campaign manager rick davis and his firm davis manafort.

read the newsweek report here.

please let it be known – the republican party may say they’re campaigning for smalltown values and morality, but the facts state clearly: they are DEEP in the pockets of the corporate interests, and their only goal is to make the rich even richer – at your expense and the expense of future generations who will have to carry this national debt.

is it any wonder that the bill president bush is pressuring congress to pass for more corporate bailouts up to $700 BILLION includes SPECIFIC terminology stating the people of the US will not be able to review where the money goes to, nor will there be any accountability for those bailed out?

if anyone still actually thinks mccain has any interest in reforming our financial system, please raise your hand now.

PLEASE, if you are undecided on who you will vote for in this presidential election or are planning to vote for john mccain in this election, PLEASE take the time to review barack obama’s economic plan so you can see his focus on TRUE reform, bringing equality back to america’s economy, and allowing equal opportunity for everyone.

furthermore, take a second to review obama’s “responsible economic recovery plan”, which will help ensure that our tax dollars do not go towards paying for golden parachutes, or large payouts to the corporate leaders who led us into this crisis, as well as ensure that any bailouts that do occur will be subject to bi-partisan review and oversight, so that we’re not just writing a blank to check to greedy and irresponsible corporations. click here to read more and sign your support online.

please, do not sit by and allow my generation to be forced into footing the bill for this greed and corruption.

thank you.

Q: is our children learning? A: childrens do learn!

September 27th, 2007 by stephen h | No Comments | Filed in News

as if to further add to the recent report about emperor bush’s hooked-on-phonics-inspired speech teleprompts, he manages to stick his foot even further into his mouth yesterday with the Instant Bush Classicâ„¢: “childrens do learn.”

at least he managed to answer his previous question… “is our children learning?”

coming up tomorrow: watch white house spokeswoman dana perrino spin the story! turns out, the emperor was just poking fun at himself! oh… what a jokester!

EDIT: finally some good news on the judicial front: a federal judge here in portland finds parts of the patriot act unconstitutional.
