For sure you not Representatives of the lower and Middle Class Conservatives.

The American dream Boehner shouts about, was put in jeopardy, the day GW Bush was elected.  It has always been the Republican motto to Borrow and Spend, and boy have they been doing that !  Of course, they are trying to lay the blame at the Democrats feet, as usual.  Whilst pulling the wool over the eys of would-be voters, they have kept enriching the haves, allowing numerous U.S. lives to be lost, and worse, allowing soldiers with horrible wounds to languish in their homes, or in vet's hospitals, waiting - in vain -  for their needs to be met.  Now, Congress is talking of lowering their retirement, and the Republicans HAVE ALWAYS CLAIMED TO SUPPORT THE ARMED SERV(ERS)ICES, OF OUR COUNTRY.  They lie about that, with straight faces, and continue to make bookoos of billions for their 'war buddies' who are supposedly taking care of the soldiers needs? ? ? so they can fight the 'drummed up' enemies of the 'free' world.    Then, when an honest general gives honest answers about Karzai, he is let go !  Why?  Because it would make the rich less rich, if they didn't have all these outlets for their private pork-barrel projects.  Now, the world is trying to whip up hatred against the Iranians, and their nuclear weapons capabilities.  Guess who is behind that?  I'll give you three guesses, and the first two don't even count.  And we wonder why the anti-semites are increasing, at such a rapid rate?  And why Europe says they won't be affected by this weaponry, so the people who are in harm's way should fight their own battles.  .  .  not a bad idea, and one that I would love to see adopted, world-wide.  I do believe it would cause a greater affinity for peace pacts, with teeth.  If we think that all the wars we have fought in the middle east have had much effect, at all, on those who've been warring for thousands of years, that is another 'wool over the eyes' proposition.  These wars have gone on since the days of Abraham and Sarah, and their treatment of Sarah's handmaid, after their own son was born.  The slaughter will continue, as always, as soon as we pull out our troops.  No doubt about that, sad as it seems.  They enjoy killing one another off, and will continue to do so. . .  In fact, they have never stopped.  Now, there is a real FAMILY FEUD.   I am a registered Republican, and have been, for years.  Realizing the modus operandi of the party, however, has made me vote Democratic, in most elections, in the last fifty years.  I guess I would really be called an Independent, but I register Republican, in order to be able to vote for the best of the worst, in the Primary.  We have nobody to vote for in the Republican line-up for 2012, so we might as well face the fact, and vote, again, for our current President, since he has no rivals in the Democratic party.  I think he is a good fellow, but he doesn't know when to 'move' and that has made our country's reputation suffer, especially as it relates to the economy.   We now have to pay a premium in interest rates, because the Republican Congress wouldn't allow our debt ceiling to rise, simply because they are trying to oust a black man who had the audacity to run for President, and worse, yet, to WIN THAT OFFICE.  They haven't stopped whining, and conniving, since, as they are desperately endeavoring to 'put that black man back in his place.' 

Gee, Mr. Tangerine Man is now on the defensive? How did that happen? LOL
