HELL o
Why isn't America awake?
Have we been fooled into
thinking the "one man theory?"
That once we have Obama,
all will be alright?
That we don't need to
keep his feet to the fire?
His feet and words are
not aligned!
It is hard to fight with
his hands tied behind his back.
Where are the demoRats?
Hiding behind the shame
of racism.
Worried about reelection
SO with one foot nailed to the ground
as they run around in
circles doing nothing day in or day out....afraid
Did I see the repuGlicans
doing that with Bush?
Oh HELL yes, however with
subtleties--not so with the demoRats
Who stand for nothing and
fall for everything!
Did I see bickering in
Congress over the Medicare Drug bill
OR NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND?
No they stood behind Bush
no matter how bad the plans
What do the repuglicans
have to offer right now other than
sink Obama agenda
I see no other health
plan,
just verbage that
Obamacare is not what the america wants
How ignorant of history
are we?
Repuglicans didn't want
Medicare back in the day either
Called it Socialism then
too
Imagine life without
Medicare.
Now they are fighting to
keep their limited, privileged heath care the same.
When it needs to be fixed
NOW and available to all of us
I say They should of
pushed the single payor system
So when compromise was
going on it would of made the public option look
good.
Worried about government
taking over healthcare!
Worried about deficits!
Why now worry when Bush
buired us in debt with not only one war
but two, both illegal and
ill gotten as they lied their way over there.
They just didn't have a
strategy other than GEORGE W'S "Get Back"
"you beat my daddy SO I'm
going to finish what Daddy didn't."
However George the 2nd
can't read the same book that George I read
Worried about the
government taking over!
Hell the government
watches us run red lights,
listens to our cellphone
conversations,
reads our emails,
hears our private
conversations.
They know how much we
have in the bank
when we deposit and take
out
They run the school
system, public transportation, and the postal system
Why worry about
healthcare?
Oh, yes, you may be help
those who have been rendered UNFIT citizens.
Watch out!! You may be
held accountable for the neglect of centuries,
for the lack of
EVERYTHING from education, jobs and heatlhcare.
Which should be a right
NOT a privilege.
We can't continue to vote
the bums out because what is the other bum gonna do?
Restart healthcare reform
planning?
Hell, we invented that
wheel once, how many times do we reivent that same
wheel?
When will American people
wake up?
I guess when we direct
deposit our paychecks to the US government account.
And they give us $20 a
week to live on
When our checks gets
divided by 50% healthcare cost,
49% for housing and the
other 1% for everthing else.
Doesn't leave much for
the booze we like to consume
Doesn't leave much for
the Esclades we love to drive
Doesn't leave much for
the bling we love to wear
Doesn't leave much for
the education of our children
Doesn't leave much for
the health of the young and old
The supremelss court
decision that equates a corporation to a person, an
individual
Doesn't leave us a fair
share for the fight against the moneyed corporation
That have been given the
inordinate economic power based on the right to free
speech
Damn, I never heard a
Ford talk!
Never heard Chrysler
utter a single word!
Never heard a Buick
babble a single word!
However I have heard the
lies told by others
and we continue to let
these lies become truths
as we sit idly silent
instead of outraged at such rulings
Think your vote doesn't
count?
Think your voice
doesn't count?
Well your activism--your
community organizations will.
I often wonder where is
the book that was written to take over the country.
I wonder what chapter we
are on now?
How many more pages of
history will be rewritten before the people are able
to read
and truly get
That this government is
supposed to be
of the people,
for the people
and by them
