Republicans on 18 days paid vacation after denying Unemployment Insurance and blocking equal pay for women!
The Nexus of Republicans and Vladimir Putin!
Republicans, since retaking control of the House of Representatives in 2010 and the forty-five Republican Senators, really haven’t done anything tangible to get us out of the precarious predicament George W. Bush left us in, but, despite that fact, with the intelligence of President Obama and the Democrats, “we have come a long way from where we were at the end of Bush’s Presidency in 2008.”
Banks are no longer collapsing; The Stock Market is at an all time high; The S & P went from a low of 730 and stands presently over 1,800, that helped the 401K Plans to not only regain 100% of its value, but added value beyond that. Unemployment that was at an all time high over 10% when Bush left Office is today 6.7%. Under Bush we had a net gain of jobs of one million for all of Bush’s eight years and under Obama, we added 8.9 million new jobs. Obama ended the Iraq war and by the end of this year we would be out of Afghanistan. The total cost of those two wars thus far, is estimated to be over four (4) trillion dollars.
However, Republicans cannot take credit for anything because rather than help they obstructed, lied, cheated, schemed and did everything to persuade the American people that “all that ails America and their lives is the fault of President Obama.” As strange as it may seem, a great majority of Americans seems to agree with the Republicans misnomer. To be frank about how uninformed and ignorant we have become, only 27% of Americans knew where Ukraine is located. In a recent Poll many Americans thought that Ukraine was within one of our fifty States; some thought it was located in South America and others placed Ukraine literally in the Ocean 180 degrees from where it is. So, in the final analysis, some of us are just plain dumb!
Putin is using Ukraine as a Panacea to hide Russia’s rough and tumbled economy and it is getting worse for Russia by the day as it pertains to Russia’s financial stability. However, Russia like North Korea control the media and Putin spoon feed the Russian people as to how great Russia is doing and out of being uninformed and ignorant of facts, many Russians see Putin as their Savior the same as many Americans see the Republicans as theirs.
Nothing can be further from the truth because factually, Republican Legislators have become Pariahs of the Middle-Class and the Poor and Putin; he is a self centered, conceited Pariah of anyone and everyone, except Putin.
In the final analysis, Putin and our Republican Legislators only interest, is to “remain in power, lie, cheat, steal, deceive for their own benefit and the few they favor!”
