Kudos to Romney on his "Say Anything, Everything and Nothing" campaign tour. His theme song today should be Lou Reed's "Dirty Boulevard". Nothing like taking a 14 year old quote out of context and running on it. The sad reality is that for the last 40 years or more, we have had redistribution as policy in America, both on the state and the federal level. We saddle the poor and working class with more and more of the debt and the tax burden, shifting that burden off of business and wealthy individuals. While it hasn't worked well for those responsible for that burden, it has worked swimmingly well for businesses and the wealthy in this country. All the 99% or the 47% want is an equitable playing and paying field. We move further and further away from that with every republican elected to office whether it's at the local, state or federal level. All patriots, progressives and those that love their country, owe a debt of gratitude to Mitt Romney. He not only selflessly showed us his core, but the core of the republican party. I admire his courage for cutting right to the chase, saving progressives countless hours of precious time in raising the alarm concerning the threats our Republic faces from determined and overwhelming plutocratic and oligarchical forces. There are far more than just 47% of Americans that are victims of the historic betrayal by the GOP.

According to the New York Magazine, Honey Boo Boo is the new Shirley Temple. No she isn't. She's Baby Jessica without the well. My prediction is that she will be a substance abuser by 9, knocked up by a close relative before the age of 12, and if still breathing at 15, both doctors Drew and Phil will exclaim "I'm outta here."

"Bless
me Father, for I have sinned. It's been over three years since my last
election. I've failed to vote in my local races, and the developers and
corporate interests won. In the last two national elections, I voted
with my heart on matters of values instead of practical sense and then
even voted for a straight republican ticket based solely on an
interpretation of The Bible which had no connection to the teachings of
Christ."
"I absolve you from your sins
in the name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit. Go and sin no more."
