Obama: Republicans Care Most About Protecting The Rich

[Demo_Chris]

9. Let's not forget that evil bastard Bush!

Bush, the bastard, had his own radical ideas about helping people who were struggling. You remember what that hyper conservative jerk did? The bastard fought for, and signed, the Economic Stimulus act of 2008, which sent up to $1200 cash money to American families in need of a little help. What kind of sadistic bastard sends cash to poor people?! Not our guy, thank goodness!

And when Bush (the fucker) realized that medical costs were bankrupting seniors you know what he did? Once he finished laughing like a maniac, he set to work fighting for the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act, the largest expansion of Medicare in its entire 38 year history. The sociopath apparently felt that seniors needed help paying for medications or something.

Obviously, as a Liberal, I am opposed to these so-called solutions. I believe that the proper way to stimulate the economy is to hand all the money directly to banks, and I know that the real way to control healthcare costs is to pass a law requiring every American, whether they can afford it or not, purchase overpriced insurance from the caring people in the insurance industry. And we don't plan to stop there, as liberals we know that the best way to save Social Security is to tie it to chained CPI, that way we save the program by simply not paying future recipients any money -- just like we knew that the best way to end the war in Oraq was to EXTEND the war in Iraq past the date Bush set.

Now obviously I am being sarcastic. But I do get tired of redefining our belief system based upon which party is in power. Obama hasn't done shit for the poor. He has not even tried. He doesn't talk about them, and so far at least he doesn't seem to particularly care. It's pretty fucking sad when Bush -- the worst President in a century -- did as much to help the poor as our self-proclaimed champion of the people. If Bush can send out $1200 rebate checks to help in a minor recession, why isn't Obama fighting for $5000 rebate checks in the face of this depression? If Bush can expand Medicare to help seniors, why is our guy not fighting to expand it to help everyone else?
