blame game

all of last year, we kept hearing how this "great recession" would be over sometime this summer but today, in the paper, "experts" (lol) say that it will continue all the way into 2012 and that job growth will be meager at best. and, knowing the american public to be easily panicked and always eager to assign blame, obama and the democrats will pay a big price at the voting booths. oddly enough the american public never blames themselves. they were the ones who bought into the idea that home prices could go up EVERY YEAR by double digits while at the same time INCOMES WERE FLAT. they thought that though nobody was making more money (other than the rich, of course..but the rich aint buying those middle class homes) people would somehow or another be able to afford grossly inflated prices for new (and poorly built, i might add) cookie cutter homes ranging from small poorly built to rather massive poorly built mac mansions. the american public did not pay any attention to the ney Sayer's when we pointed out that deregulation of the financial markets would lead to horrendous consequences for the average american because it allowed insiders to rule the market even more than they did. the american public did not rise up in outrage when g.w. bush invaded iraq, a country WHO DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO US AND HAD NO CONNECTION WHATSOEVER TO AL QAIADA..MATTER OF FACT OBL HATED SADAAM HUSSIAN AND THE FEELING WAS MUTUAL. OSAMA THOUGHT HUSSIAN WAS WAY TOO LIBERAL (LOL)., the american public didn't complain when bush kept the costs of the wars OFF THE BOOKS. they didn't complain when bush gave tax cuts to the rich which cost over ONE TRILLION dollars (add that to the cost of the war in Iraq and you can see where our large national debt came from...and it didn't come from the job stimulus money...)
the american public didn't complain nearly loud enough when company after company after company closed their factories here and moved to third world countries and the result of that is that we (the people) got SLIGHTLY LOWER prices and the corporations made MUCH LARGER PROFITS BUT THEY MADE THEM IN OTHER COUNTRIES WHERE THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO PAY TAX. and now they are going to blame obama and the democrats. in fact, our hens have come home to roost.

historically, manufacturing has been the engine that drove recoveries. but what manufacturing do we have left. the things that must be bought...shoes, socks, underwear, shirts, pants and coats and etc. are ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY MADE ELSEWHERE so we don't even get that little bit. but blame obama.

now we are ratcheting up for more involement in yeman (another muslim country led by an oppressive regime THAT WE BACK) and the "war" in afghanistan gets more costly in money and lives daily. for that we can blame obama.

anyway, fuck them all. is there an honest man with a plan for america in america? i am beginning to doubt it. fuck them all because they all are fucking us. vote socialistic. (that will rattle 'em...lol)

but you know what we are going to do? some, like liz, will stay home and not vote but the majority is going to elect some republicans and the beat will go on and nothing will change. the rich will get richer, the poor will get poorer. the social safety net will have a million holes in it and the wars in the middle east will drag on and on and on and on and on....why do they hate us so?
