Dear Republicans

Today some of our brightest minds in the political arena spoke. These great minds, Limbaugh, Palin, Beck, O'Reilly and Hannity among others had one common message. Obama is a Fascist, Communist and Socialist. Yes, they say he is all three. There is just one problem those are different political systems and don't coexist. Also, they are not telling just what Obama did to earn these labels.

These are the definitions of Fascism, Communism and Socialism. If they are going to call Obama one of these please at least take time to learn what they actually mean and understand you cannot be more than one they are very different. Also, please explain just how anything Obama has done could be considered any of them.




Please, insult President Obama if you like, we know you hate his guts, but at least call him the correct label and more over know what they mean because your really lose your credibility when you speak not knowing what you talking about.

We at times, quite often actually, hear of how the Republican state legislatures will draw district to guarantee Republican majorities in the U.S. House.

In my state the districts look like drunk people drew them, they snake one way then another grabbing a few people here and a few there.

I live in a district in which Democrats don't have a chance in hell, but if you looked at the general population in any logical division* it may not give a Democrat majority but it would give us a fair chance.

For Alabama we have 7 Representatives, we are 25% black but only have 1 black Representative (14%), we are 50% women but have only 2 women Representatives (28%), in 2008 39% voted for Obama but we have only 1 Democratic Representative (14%).

I know this is a pipe dream because states will not give up this power but would you be willing to give up the guaranteed Democrat districts that do exist if ALL districts were drawn in a logical* method or if politics were in consideration the balance had to be close to 50/50?

To me this is the only way to ever get fair elections for the people. What do you all think?

*By logical division/method would be using established borders of cities, counties, rivers or roads.

But we serve less.

The market place working like a fine oiled machine. Gota love Capitalism.

I am talking about the new show on MSNBC "The Cycle". I know at least one person out there agrees because they posted yesterday.
I feel like I am watching the kids table on Thanksgiving playing grown up. They just don't impress me.

Am I one of two or do others who have seen this agree?

It appears many of the 26 Republican lead states will not set up there exchanges and turn down the Medicare funds. This will mean 24 states will have the full coverage and the rest some variation. Now lets look a few years beyond 2014. Lets say the ACA is not overturned or weakened by congress. Will the citizens of the 26 states which are still having health care issues start to demand being full participants of the ACA? Will this mean a Democratic take over of politics in some of these states? Could this be the progressive wave we have been hoping for?

I have tried to find the answer and I simply don't understand how it works. When I last heard about Reconciliation was in the passing of ACA.

I do understand it does not demand the 60 votes in the Senate but still would require 50. Are there actually enough Democrats who could be willing to do something to over turn the ACA?

I am not expecting miracles. I just want to know if public opinion has changed.

Will it be like Social Security and Civil Rights and one day there will be a 2.0,.3.0 ... with the end being single payer/universal healthcare?

Today they held AG Holder in contempt.
They will vote once again to repeal the ACA (once they get back from a well deserved break).
This is a vote which they know won't make its way through the Senate and would be vetoed by the POTUS but they want to show how they care for America.
I guess this is ok because they have given us a great jobs plan, oh wait, not they didn't. But, they did fix the college loan issue, no they haven't' done that either.

I know we can read the 2700 page law.

I know there is a summary on the official website but it takes many back and forth clicks to find all the information.

Has anyone see all of the benefits of the law in bullet form? No specific details, just an outline.

A one or two page list to be able to give someone one who doesn't understand the law or a tea bagger who is making ridiculous claims of "death panels".
