HOPE

An absolute and profound, sincere embrace!



It is highly probable that Former President George W. Bush may very well go down in History as the United States President that catapulted America from the top of the Pleiades of Nations into the abyss, but he may also be well respected for keeping his Post-Presidency promise.

Subsequent to the former President leaving office on January 20, 2009 he vowed not to criticize his successor, and thus far he, Mr. Bush, has lived up to his word. I am going to always be critical of President Bush’s gigantic tax cuts and his ordering the invasion of Iraq, but in retrospect, I think Mr. Bush was lead by people like Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and others, like a Sheep that is lead to its Shearers. Make no mistake, Mr. Bush would always have to accept the responsibility for the decisions he made, but since he left office, it is vividly clear that Mr. Bush may not be the extremist he portrayed whilst holding the highest office in the World. It perhaps would be beneficial to America if the Republican and Tea Party extremists revisit Mr. Bush’s behavior since leaving office!

President Bush had finally found himself when he agreed to work with Senator John McCain and the former Senator Ted Kennedy (Deceased) in reforming our very flawed Immigration Policies, and some of the other Policies he aspired to achieve. However, it was during Mr. Bush’s decision to deal with the Country’s sensitive issues that his own party tossed him overboard – somewhat like when Jonah was tossed into the Sea.

Just imagine, The Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, has and continues to proclaim that he would do everything within his power and then some, to insure that President Obama “is a one term President.” The proof is always in the pudding and as such, Mr. McConnell has lived up to his word, irrespective of how insane and detrimental it has and continues to be, for the Country and its Citizens.

But in fairness, McConnell isn’t the only Republican with that agenda, for it seems apparent that approximately 95% of Republicans that presently are in office, shares Mr. McConnell’s desires. It does not take Einstein’s brain to comprehend the insanities of the Republicans and The Tea Party – “phantasmagoric rationales and internecine policies that has further catapulted us down the abyss!”

Approximately 50% of the American Public owns 2.5% (two and one half) of America’s wealth, a total of about 1.4 trillion dollars. These are hard working honest Americans paying more than their fair share with an average income of about 22,000 annually for a family of four, and yet the Republican Party and their colleagues that are seeking the GOP Nomination, uses Murdoch’s News Empire to tarnish these people. Within the past month the Republican Candidates for President, their Congressional Colleagues and the very wealthy High-Profile Republicans, have been on Fox Television proclaiming that the 50% of Americans identified above, are people who own a refrigerator, a stove, a microwave, a television and items that are classified as needed household appliances are doing well, hence the reason as the Republicans sees it, that social services should be further butchered, but more tax cuts should be given to big business and the top 2% of the wealthiest Americans.

The most deranged fact in all of this is that these heart-less people (Republicans and Tea Party) that continually push for more tax cuts for the wealthy and big business, whilst demanding trillions of dollars in cuts that would hurt the most vulnerable in our society, they are the same people that constantly advocate God and Country in all of their speeches!

Mitt Romney’s plans that he revealed on September 6, 2011 for fixing the joblessness and our ailing economy calls for more massive tax cuts for the rich and yes, more cuts in social spending. If the American people fails to wake up and see these people for who and what they are and casts their votes in 2012 for these “butchers of society that are against everything that is good and noble,” then I am afraid, we would fall further down the abyss with nothing starring back at us.
