As We Celebrate Fleet Week Remembering Memorial Day the Soldier That Have Fallen
23 May 2012 Leave a Comment
May 23rd begins the holiday season for most people but this also represents fleet week a celebration of our fallen soldiers of many wars in our history.
In Staten Island and throughout the harbor of New York people came to see the Majestic sailing ships that pass under the Narrows as they sail through the harbor up to the George Washington Bridge. There were crowds of hundreds by Fort Wadsworth with their families just to get a glimpse of this breath taking view; school children were given passes so they could experience this historic event. ![]()
The parade of 17 tall ships and 10 warships are going to enter New York Harbor by this afternoon. This is a commemorates of the bicentennial of the War of 1812 and the penning of the Star Spangled Banner. For many this will be an over whelming experience that will stay in their minds forever. ![]()
For the remainder of the week the ship will be docked in Manhattan, Brooklyn and of course my home town Staten Island where the Staten Island Yacht Club will be dedicating a barbecue on this Sunday for the Navy. Many of the local food and restaurants have donated supplies for this celebration in honoring our military.
Of course there will be tours available for people throughout this weekend with festive celebrations music at the Sullivan’s Pier which use to be the home port in Stapleton and a War of 1812 commemoration at Fort Wadsworth. ![]()
LGBT Sailors have been urged to come out for this event we call Fleet Week to celebrate in the festivities, now with DADT was repealed, also that our fabulous President has made it clear that we need equal right for marriage in all relationships no matter if it’s of the same sex. ![]()
It’s time to celebrate even bars and hotels have set up Fleet Week and planned many events to attract our gay service member for their 1st open Fleet Week in the celebrations 25th year history. This will be the very 1st time our LGBT service member with their families can be out openly enjoying this Memorial Day.
Fleet Week started back in 1935; it allows the naval crew to enter the city and visit the tourist attractions plus get some R&R with family, friends after being away during a long period at sea.
For our military that have come home from war such as Viet Nam, Iraq and still we are left with Afghanistan still facing a hard recovery from the doom they saw the injuries the flash backs that stay in their minds, if anyone deserves a little rest some kind of celebration it’s our soldiers even if it’s just for a week they are the hero’s we need to honor not just for a weekend but throughout the years. 
In Staten Island there are more than 250 motorcycles bearing American flags many ridden by older Viet Nam veterans they formed a proud escort for the vehicles carrying the wounded warriors, lost who never received any honor when returning home.
For the wounded warriors it was the start of a two day break time to party a hotel stay and a Coast Guard boat tour of New York Harbor. Which goes to show how many now give respect to our military from past to present all people not just in the New York area.
After all that’s said and done it’s now time to end all wars give our soldiers back their lives with family friends peace, some time to rest have a life that they deserve much after all they have done for our country served proudly this is their time now for a celebration to begin of ending wars past present and to prevent any in our near future.
Let’s honor the soldiers who have fought for the security of our life this country we love and call the USA how they never asked why or when they would be coming home but did their best stood tall never did they fall or give in to another or deceive their Generals took their orders marched on no matter what door they went through.
This isn’t a political fight about being a Republican or Democrat, Independent this is about the lives of the men, women who now are our hero’s the soldier that now need the support of all citizens including our politicians for we haven’t been fighting a war on the front lines as they have. Its time to stand up for our military proudly stop the bickering over how to help or retrain them bringing them back into a life without danger in front of them.
How History Has Gone In a Complete Circle From our Native American Indian to Present of Discriminating Against People of a Lesser Class
20 May 2012 2 Comments
in Democracy where has it gone
While in our history books it fails to mention our Native American Indian who was the 1st true settlers on American soil going as far back to the 1100 in our northern states as we know of them in today’s history.
The Mohawks of Kahnawake are an ancient people with a vibrant culture and rich history. They are one of the eight communities that make up the Mohawk Nation and have historic, political and cultural ties based on Honor, Trust and Respect to the Oneida, Seneca, Onondaga, Cayuga and Tuscarora Nations of the Northeastern part of North America.
In ancient times, these nations achieved a major and innovative development by forming a Confederacy and devising a system of governance known as the Great Law of Peace. In all of the world’s history, there are very few examples of such a coming together of nations for the purpose of peace; the formation of the Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) Confederacy is one of them. Which also conclude parts of our Constitution as we know it today from our founding fathers, the laws of the American Indian played a large role in our earlier foundation of what laws should be based on for humanity equality fairness for the people in our part of the nation as know it to be the United States of American.
Many significant moments that marks our history. During the 17th and 18th centuries, when the British and French were establishing themselves and fighting each other for control of North America, the Kanien’keha’ka found themselves wedged between these two colonial rivals. Their traditional territory was situated between the fur trading posts established at Quebec City by the French and at Albany by the British.
While some would have you believe that Christopher Columbus was the 1st person who discovered our country that we so proudly call the USA, when in fact there is much controversy about this many would say the American Indians were the ones who greeted Columbus in the new world, and some would have you believe it was Leif Erickson who founded this land before all.
Whether who was 1st isn’t the issue here since the people with power made sure that our American Indians suffered dearly, wrapping them in blankets infested with small pox a massacre killing off thousands. Also during this time a battle took place in 1760 on Chimney Island (modern day Town of Lisbon, NY) in the St Lawrence River.
As the French prevented the American Indian from using land to gather their food source forcing them to use the river knowing they couldn’t carry much goods in a small boat.
Even today our 1st settlers fight for their rights as Americans born on our soil, fighting in our wars defending this country but not given the rights as the Americans they are to vote. This to me is discrimination against any American born citizen knowing they’d have all rights as any other American should, but according to our wealth who rules this country they’d have to give up their rights of their heritage being the Native American 1st on our soil before all others.
Now going forward to our mid 50’s to late 60’s with the fight for civil rights with people of color how they were also discriminated against having no right to vote or be in the same places of a wealthy white person or even to drink out of the same fountain.
Thrown to the back of a bus, always harassed by others blamed for crimes they haven’t committed because they were of a lesser class some would have you believe.
During all our wars the black man and the Indian were always on the front lines they were expendable for they weren’t of use to our society to many of people in power, or so they’d have others believe. Even today in our military with now the LGBT movement our soldiers our discriminated against by some of our political parties booing them at primaries of debates when here they are defending our country. ![]()
While some would think that other in our political field would say these soldiers are once again expendable on the front lines for they aren’t as same as what they’d describe as the norm in society of the wealth class they would prefer in our country.
Now here we are full circle with the discrimination against the people of not only color, the American Indian our seniors the middle class the poor with their rights to vote being challenged in most every red state on the map. The women rights being once again Roe VS Wade challenged in every red state, our civil rights in every red state are now all being challenged. No matter your color your nationality it seems now if your not of wealth you will be discriminated upon, taken back to a place which one might call hell a fury of fire left to burn to ashes.
It’s as if we have no voice or right to be in any community with a safety net were being taken back to a time of where slavery was the practice and most practical for the people of poverty to live. Some would say at least being a slave you’d have a roof over your head with bread water to keep your belly full.
Is this the cycle we want to see in our history for us or our next generation to come we’ve done a complete circle reversed backward taken away the rights of every person’s without wealth.
As we now are in talk of the G8 Summit President Obama emphasizes growth over austerity knowing this is the only way to a real recovery to our global community our own survival in our country as FDR would agree with as back in his Presidency he faced a server depression that our country rebounded from because of the remarkable tactics of diplomacy and his wise economic strategy.
We all know humanity fairness equality our dignity is our strength in moving forward to a better world of peace without wars in our future. ![]()
Corporation’s Aren’t People They Destroy the Every Day Family’s Life
15 May 2012 2 Comments
in Just another opinion by Me DLCJ
I’m so discussed with the Republican Party the Ryan Budget in all their unconscionable rhetoric pushing for a form of tyranny so unreasonable they call AUSTERITY.
When in fact Romney enjoys firing people as when he worked for Bain making millions off of people losing their jobs their lively hood a way to support their families. Then you hear how no corporation owes you a job for life it’s your own fault if you’re out of work without a pension or portfolio to help you in retirement.
The audacity how they destroy a person’s dignity when knowing they are the reason we are now in an economic crises, where people have lost their homes living in shelters with no resources of any type of a safety net to fall back on. Your average middle class American senior and yes poor lives week to week never knowing how they will make ends meet or be able to afford food to feed their children.
Our political Republican will sing song about our debt but all they want is to defund from programs that help the needy as with our debt ceiling debate back last summer. The legacy of this ridiculous argument that seems to go on forever was an ill-fated bipartisan fiscal bargain or so they claim.
It was to automatic set of budgets cuts totaling around $1.2trillion that would kick in next January. Plus the payroll tax cuts would end with also the Bush tax cuts would be sent to the bottom of the ocean where the wealth now would have to share in paying into the federal tax structure as all do.
Knowing that this isn’t what Romney and all in Congress would want so they have a scheme of their own which now is the Ryan budget only to know it will be veto when arriving at the President’s desk. Again they will hold the American people hostage to play their child like games not caring of how they cripple the economy economic growth in this country. ![]()
Their main goal is to continue do obstruct destroy any type of reform that all would agree upon. What we need in our budget is as in past when Roosevelt was in office he created jobs which is essential in any type of growth in a failing economy.
Big corporation don’t care about the people that Mitt Romney calls people in fact the CEO’S that get the extreme large bonuses are living with luxury, so are the owners of high end restaurants financial advisors hedge fund managers. While the everyday middle class is in a form of depression doing without not enjoying an economic recovery as you hear the media say were in.
In fact the commerce department claims that our economy grew 3% last quarter, better than before. And personal income also jumped but not for the middle class or teachers who have now been laid off now on unemployment.
So now corporations aren’t people in fact they destroy our lives because it’s the wealth that are making the rules taking away our dignity our lively hood. Stealing our retirement pension since they haven’t given us one for we aren’t entitled according to them. What will become of our seniors or veterans this corporation doesn’t give a rat’s ass about. They will tell you we don’t owe you a job for life it’s your own fault if you didn’t save on your low salary without a raise in over thirty five years. Heartless without feeling any blood running through their veins no even a pulse, so how dare Romney claim that corporation are people too?
Understanding yes to him with wealth that lets him rule putting a car garage in one of his summer homes JP Morgan is yes a person as a corporation and yes all seniors should have had their Social Security invested in that corporation so now they wouldn’t have a dime left but Mitt Romney would be wealthier than he was before this dangerous gambling game of betting on risks
. As Romney defend JP Morgan
by claim that this didn’t affect the tax payer and that it’s not going to hurt this corporation either all will receive their bonuses at the end of the quarter as they play with the investors’ money. Also the leadership of that company will be held accountable for this trading loss, but we don’t want to punish companies since they are people too.
Meanwhile the middle class senior who has lost their job do to health and age reasons has no pension or 401k to fall back on as a safety net but to only have Social Security what they have paid into all their life from the age of 17years of age served in the military in Viet Nam also as a NYPD for 7years then worked for a person as friend family now left without anything except to be thrown out like a over used car that isn’t worth anything anymore.
So back to are corporations people to? Not at all will they destroy you for their self-greed take away anything that gets in their way in fact probably set over their dead mother’s body just to make another billion not care of anyone but themselves.
Meanwhile most employers provide health benefits but now this is on decline because the corporations want to save every dime for themselves plus they invest more by not paying for your benefits. Again proves corporations aren’t people to.
If you’re lucky enough to be of the richest 10% a large chunk of your money is in the stock market where you making a nice gain, but if you’re of the lesser class making minimum wage or a little above you’re not as lucky. But if you’re a corporation then well you’re doing better than all of the above for they have invested against everyone including our own country outsourcing every dime.
In fact the so called corporations (Romney) would rather never speak of inequality or the words as the reverse of Robin Hood they feel it makes things look far worse than what they are trying to bamboozle the people with. Which by doing such allow their rhetoric of slashing public services and keep tax loopholes for the wealth seems to make sense to them.
Now if we lost over 2billion dollars don’t you believe we’d have to answer for it? I just wish I had half of that amount of money wow just thinking about that is truly unbelievable imagine the children
you could feed the seniors you could put in homes, or even our veterans help them back on their feet after serving in a rich mans war. 
.
Now knowing that our fraudulent congress is over whelmed with the Ryan budged that was just passed in congress so when I call them the most dysfunctional congress ever I do mean it honestly. This budget will destroy most every family unless you’re of wealth. It will cut food medical aid every part of a safety net. What people need to read about is the territory tax in this Ryan budget to really understand how we are being deceived by this Republican Party that Mitt Romney is wrapping his arms around this budget loving it in fact, you might ask yourself why or maybe you already understand.
Ryan’s budget will also take us back to the 19th century when unregulated corporation bulked out their bread with plaster of pairs and flavored their beer with sulfuric acid in other words it will kill us before helping us except the wealth will never suffer from any of this austerity just the ones without the portfolio or a pension with that lobbyist hedge fund manager managing your wealth.
Knowing how Romney has bullied classmates it’s now understandable is adult life attitude, he hasn’t changed a bit. Still forces his ways upon people enjoys others suffering watching people lose their jobs or homes even knowing they will be living in the street and if lucky enough will find a place in a shelter.
Be sure that if Romney becomes our President he will become our worst nightmare, the wealth’s 4th of July New Year’s Eve Christmas Day everyday it will be for them to celebrate on the loss of our own fate.
Corporation’s Aren’t People Then Destroy Families We don’t need Romney in the People’s White House
The Wild West Brought To You By the NRA
14 May 2012 Leave a Comment
We know that our political parties whether which one you support are all taking donations from the NRA, since they care more about the 2nd amendment than the 1st which is freedom of speech. The NRA was the 22nd top donor of all various interest groups donating $13,373,887 to the federal candidates and yes the political parties since 1989.
Lobbyist spending for year 2000 from most recent data available that I could fine are
1. Guns Owners of America $4,130,000
2. National Rifle Association $1,150,00
3. Citizens Committee to Keep and Bear Arms $1,020,00
And the list goes on, so you can understand how money is donated to keep the 2nd amendment in our laws and also make news ones that aren’t voted in by the American citizens.
The NRA and NRA-ILA Combined spent $1, 230, 00, & $80,000 of ILA donation went to Harold Volkmer’s lobbying group.
Wondering how much money do we need to grease the political wheels get the politicos into your corner then get them to write the party of your choice a check then fight legislation you would want pushed into law is the big question.
In other words campaign contributions are being made & bought by NRA to all of our political parties for their agenda. And of course it keeps the NRA in good standing with all politicians to make sure anything this association would want is given because of the extreme donations they give to the political party of choice.
Knowing that our Republican party stand closer to the NRA has more influence over what happens with laws they want pushed through in their behalf they are more apt to receive the larger of the donation. But the NRA educates and spends money on member of both the Republican and Democratic parties. If you ask individuals the most likely answer would be as I’ve said it would be the Republican Party. ![]()
ALEC has been associated closely with the NRA in the past & present ALEC has a very strong relationship with this organization plus help push through the Stand Your Ground Law. There are many other conventions that ALEC promoted into legislators and corporate with lobbyist that was sponsored by the NRA as such here listed.
1. Emergency Power Firearm Owner Protection Act Exposed
2. Resolution on child Firearms Safety Exposed
3. Resolution on Firearms Purchase Waiting Periods Exposed
4. Background on Florida’s Stand Your Ground Law
The information on the NRA with the law Stand Your Ground could very well protect any persons using self-defense even when not in danger.
In fact there are many corporations bankrolling ALEC, which has promoted the Stand Your Ground gun law as a model bill, but they would depend on what side your on seeing how there is many flaws in this bill for the victim who may very well be innocent.
There is a request for a joint letter from several organizations delivered to ALEC headquarters asking for the group to disclose their financial relationship with NRA to stop pushing these bills that they claim to be a model for all states to acquire as one fits all standard. ![]()
Any of our polticians that take donations such as Romney Harry Reid and Sharron Angles & how could we forget Sarah Palin knowing she believes our President is trying to take their guns away from all but they’ve put their money where their mouth is and support the declaration of NRA knowing Guns will kill as we’ve seen in past with not only the Trayon Martin vs George Zimmerman case when knowing his defense now is the Stand Your Ground Law agains Skitles , Ice Tea. ![]()
Also in the past U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona was shot outside a grocery store in Tucson while holding a public event, Arizona at least five others of her staff were also shot and a young inocent girl died as a inoncent by stander being there just to see Mrs Giffords speak.
![]()
How many others will die from laws that let people carry guns in the open because of presusre by the NRA and all their donations to our political arena? So how do we find out who else the NRA gives money to ? accourding to resources the National Rifle Association is pouring money into the efforts to oust Gov Jon Corzine of NJ back when the election for Chris Christie was being held. There was a radical plan to legalize assault weapons but this would expoit the violence policy yes confusion about them making it automatic.
In Tucson AZ gun owners dealers are to follower the state federal laws but how many do, and we know its very easy to go under tables to buy guns and cross boarders with these weapons and sell them. Under the brady act you connot have a gun for personal or business if you were convicted of a crime punishable by being in prison for more than one year, or a fugitive from justices, addicted to an illegall drug or ruled mentally unstable. But knowing this isnt really a check fact when in some states you don’t even have to wait 24hours to purchace this weapon.
Permissive open carry states allow you to carry a gun without a permit or license even just to go shopping for food or walking down a street and with the Republican convention coming up they are allowing all to bring their guns but not a water gun or wearing of a mask ETC so what part makes sense here, except to bring back the wild west count 10 steps and face off against the person you intend to shoot.
Now knowing our radical party of tea Republicans running Mitt Romney as their candidate for the election this fall tells the NRA that if you assault our 2nd amendment putting a halt on guns being sold or used in the open it would be going against our liberties in our constitution. But when you have the wealth as Romney I’m guessing guns are what you put your money into when your wife who has never held down a job or understood what a middle class family goes through everyday this is what your main concern is or what you consider most valuable as a liberty in life.
We know that Romney campaigns across the country for the NRA supporting the use of guns and to carry them everywhere. Also the NRA has a large influence over the Romney campaign contributed extreme amounts of money into it.
Has the United States of America Become the Titanic With Third Class Citizens Poor Migrants Without? Civil Rights?
09 May 2012 4 Comments
in Just another opinion by Me DLCJ
We know the Titanic set sail for its first maiden voyage on April 10th, 1912 and that there were three categories of classes stereo typed of where people would stay on the ship. There was of course the 1st class the wealthiest among them all, they wined dinned in the most luxury ever had room maids their own private deck off their rooms, passengers could use an on-board telephone system, a lending library and a large barber shop The First Class section had a swimming pool, a gymnasium, squash court, Turkish bath, electric bath and a Verandah Cafe having all that money could buy them. Now came 2nd class who could share the laundry facility, but they had their own social part of the ship of where they would meet in conversation & eating arrangements.
How could we forget the poorest of all where they were the ones left to die on this glorious ship that sank because of an iceberg and wanting to make history making record time from South Hampton, England to New York Harbor?
Third Class passengers were not treated as luxuriously as those in First Class, but even so they were better off than their counterparts on many other ships of the time. They were accommodated in cabins sleeping between two and ten people, with a further 164 open berths provided for single young men on G Deck. They were, however, much more limited than First or Second Class passengers in their washing and bathing facilities. There were only two bathrooms, one each for men and women, for the entire Third Class complement. They had to wash their own clothes in washrooms equipped with iron tubs, whereas those travelling in First and Second Class could use the ship’s laundry. There were also restrictions on which parts of the ship they could enter, all three classes were segregated from each other & in theory passengers from the higher classes could visit the lower-class areas of the ship, in practice respect for social conventions meant that they did not do so The class distinctions were reflected in the ship’s fittings, the Third Class toilets were made of iron, those in Second Class of porcelain and those in First Class were marble.
So the point I’m getting to is how our politicians of wealth have begun splitting up the American people by color, race, religion and most important our wealth class of status in society. Are they making the middle class & the poor STEERAGE?
As our President has made it clear he feels now that all people no matter your race or religion have the right to be happily married to whomever you love whether it’s of the same sex or not. This isn’t about a political policy it’s our civil right to marry whom we choose.
But we know this isn’t just about how our President feels since every state is trying to ban same sex unions or marriages from being even on a ballot this fall.
Our Christian right wing are up in arms over this revolution how open our President has now stood on this issue even knowing for the last four years he has been pushing laws threw that stop discrimination against LGBT giving partners rights in hospitals & also
end of the ban on gays serving in the military. He says the armed forces will no longer lose the skills and combat experience of so many gay and lesbian service members. So this isn’t a real surprise for me since it’s been quite clear that he stood up for civil rights our freedom of every citizen in this country.
But here we are in a situation on the other side a fight to the end with a radical party that is determined to bring us to the sinking of the Titanic let us go down with the ship if were not of the wealth as they have in their portfolio.
As I listen to the news hearing how millions of teachers are being let go, school children in Pa. not knowing if they will still have a school next year to go to while Governor Corbett is sure to give tax breaks to the wealthiest of all his campaign gangsters, lobbyist he’d rather let children suffer.
Same going on in New York also kids wondering where will they go to school as the funding is being cut off for programs such as art, gym, music, it’s as now this party of Tea Republicans running for office are attacking our children also, women weren’t enough to attack, hey what the hell were all going down with the ship its seem according the to the laws in the Ryan Budget.
The Republican party’s plan of austerity will make us a third world country in fact worse they at least wont sink they will have a life boat. For Ryan’s budget has gut every safety net program that would be considered a life boat for our children, seniors, and to hell with the veteran that has suffered in a rich man’s war for a fat portfolio.
Now they are stopping people from voting since they know the American people would throw them out of office so what is the best action for them is to react before we show our action of anger revolt against this insane rhetoric of tyranny is toxic.
So many economists such as Paul Krugman & many others have come out saying never does austerity work it will further the debt in a worsen economic crises, does anyone in the Republican party listen NO, they continue the same schizophrenic delusional path of unreasonable behavior taking away every constitutional right we have by sneaking laws into place while we are a sleep very quietly.
If there was ever a time for a revolution in the most peaceful manner a sit in of such in every state city wide close down shops banks till we are heard. What most people don’t realize if we don’t do something soon we will have nothing to fight for we will have no rights left.
My dad remembers how his mom suffered being a single mom working during the depression how he had to go to work at the age of sixteen to help with the house hold bills. He became a merchant marine sailed around this world three times more than he would could every count.
Even with things being hard he never gave up or lost his sprit nor did my grandmother who by the way immigrated to the USA from Portugal as a young child. But even with all they went through people knew that things would become better with unions fighting for workers’ rights protesting yes and having sit in.
But some people now aren’t as hopeful as back then nor do they feel as during the Viet Nam War when the young did protest to end that war, this is the sprit we need to feel feisty once again. I’m sure none of us want to be considered steerage class passenger without a life boat.
We know all politicians are bought with the wealth from Wall Street lobbyist but there is always the other side that has more race horses since they owe more favors kickbacks. What we do know is that President Obama is a fair man care of equality humanity of life for all people not just during his campaign, he’s sincere when he speaks, tries to keep all his promises knowing with a do nothing congress making it very clear that their main goal is to prevent him from being re-elected sabotage our economy blame it on the President Obama.
When clearly this is the plan they are introducing as soon as they find a hole in the fence to slip under squeeze through thinking they might get back into the White House destroy what’s left of this country since all their wealth business are overseas their interest isn’t of what happens here.
They love to claim how they love this country when all they do is dismantle everything our country stands for including our immigration which made this country strong re-write the constitution or add amendments into it changing the actual wording of what it was to mean.
AUSTERITY TYRANNY THE CHRISTIAN WAY OR HUMANITY THE GOD GIVEN RIGHT
07 May 2012 1 Comment
in Just another opinion by Me DLCJ
While all the sounds coming across the Atlantic ocean of the election in France a shock to some with others now worrying about how this might affect our economics in this country knowing were still recovering from the fallout of the Bush/Cheney era.
In fact France is going through exactly what we are with the high unemployment and let’s not forget the unreasonable tyranny that the Republicans are trying to impose upon the middle class our seniors the poor without any hope of survival if this election would turn towards their favor.
The Republican Party needs to see that the glass isn’t half full any longer it’s empty for the others that aren’t of their wealth status. We need to return back to the time when we suffered through the depression to bail this economy out of what they call a recession. It’s impossible to slash programs at this point or to give tax breaks to the wealth, in fact we need to do as in war time of past have the wealth who can afford it buy war bonds to boost this economy instead of doing as Romney investing against our government outsourcing his wealth overseas.
We are feeling the effects of the slowest recovery in six decades but our wealth doesn’t understand that their ideology of thinking using austerity rhetoric taking away a safety net for the lower income our poor or the now forgotten middle class without jobs.
Knowing this will be a disaster by destroying any type of help for people without an income. Romney’s path to fixing this problem cutting corporate tax rate from 35% rate to 25% is nothing but a joke since most of big corporations haven’t been paying anything into our tax structure they evade paying into our government and this is part of our deficit problem.
In fact if we had more corporations here in this country instead of outsourcing them making them pay into our tax structure we might not be in such bad shape but as Romney believes and has done is outsource jobs overseas help them evade paying into our government, as you hear him claim to love this country so much.
In this century the minimum wage doesn’t take a family through a week in fact we spend more than we make, it’s not as in the 50’s when everything we bought was made in the USA either now all our products are exported in from China Japan’s everywhere but here, another reason we have no jobs for our Americans to survive.
All our electronics are all made in China even dolls to clothing but this is do to outsourcing when we could be making the products ourselves, in fact the reason our factories have left this country is because they are evading paying our taxes and unions protecting workers rights let’s not forget how they don’t have to give them health care either the list goes on of why big corporate business leave this country outsource the work.
And yet you will hear many of the right screaming how they want to cut more of the safety net for the underprivileged while keeping more taxes breaks for themselves. Not that they shouldn’t enjoy their wealth but how much can they take from a person without even food to eat or a roof over their head?
Why don’t we have a program of a tyrannical act of unreasonable behavior towards them as they are trying to impose upon people without even hope of resuming a life of what once was? How can we keep putting these types of rules into place when from past history we should have learned this won’t work it will only prevent an recover in our economics for everyone eventually.
We have the do nothing congress who won’t do anything to serious to stimulate the recovery of this recession in fact the jobs bill for infrastructure that our President wanted still sits on their floor not passed while bridges roads railways all needing repair, which will produce jobs plus will help the economy. Knowing when people work receives a salary they will spend and that is what keeps the economy moving.
There are some that would say we needed to do more with the stimulus package I’d agree after reading (After Shock) knowing that if no one is spending money the store will be left with much product on their shelves the stores will eventually go out of business, the banks will have to call in the loans and if no one has the money to pay this then the banks also lose out so there will be no winners if there is no flow of money into the economy. But the Republicans will disagree with all of what is the right way to go, they will insist on tax cuts for the wealth more cuts in the safety net for the underprivileged and yes Social Security and most important raise the tax on the undeserving poor who can’t even now afford to buy food.
We have now reached the highest levels of inequality since 1929 but still our wealth don’t or want to admit this they’d rather attack women and anything than talk about the real issues of how to correct this problem.
Paul Krugman believes that if this financial crisis had happen during the Nixon years Richard Nixon would have declared that I am now a Keynesian in economic Policy, meaning Washington, politicians would have responded fairly effectively.
All would have been more bipartisan in favor of a strong agreement about what kind of action to take regain our economy helping all in need not just the top 1%, as now with this radical Republican Party and this Ryan budget that they seem to believe is the answer to their prays from hell to us. Let them eat cake as we party among the best yacht drinking champagne.
Some might wonder how could this be happening how did our politicians get so much power to put into laws that will take away our rights as citizens well it was the wealth that lobby for them who sneak in laws that provide kick back favors in return this also helps them become elected into office with all their lies of insane rhetoric while they hoodwink the American people.
Money does and will buy power for the boys that play in that arena and the increasing wealth as the Kock brothers Alec ETC effectively has bought the Grand Old Party now having allegiance to them keeping them alive helping them in the process destroying any prospect for any type of cooperation of being reasonable in any policy for the 99% in this country.
The key to this countries path to recovery is somehow to unwrap the paralyzed congress with all their hatred discrimination towards our President and by the wealthy groups that dictate to the Republican Party with this in mind we could start to work on the correct path of recovery for every American.

Why Do Some Men in Our Political Arena Feel Threaten By Women
02 May 2012 3 Comments
in Just another opinion by Me DLCJ
There’s an old saying behind every successful man is a powerful Women, well if you think about it this is very true since just recently with our secret service who with all their degrees education working in one of the highest profile positions, and yet it was women who took control over their minds. They lost all sense of reality their special position of what they were supposed to be doing was now gone from the brain above their belts.
But yet here we are in a fight over the women keeping their rights for Planned Parenthood and for a fair wage in the work place. Truly if we could perpetually give oral sex to every man on this earth we would own the world since it’s very clear they don’t think with the education that they pay so much for when they see a women.
Men may think they keep us begging on our knees but what they don’t realize is that we really have them by their balls if we wanted to. You see we have a voice and this is what scare the men yes more so in a political arena, think how many women hold a seat in congress and or the senate?
How could a man understand what a woman goes through when our makeup is so clearly different than theirs? This attack on anything that would help a women whether in her own medical decision or in a work place is obnoxious.
In fact Planned Parenthood offers a variety of medical services including yes reproductive health care cancer screening, STD testing sex education in preventing pregnancies it’s not all for an abortion in fact they do offer contraceptives so not to use abortion as a form of birth control, knowing how the Catholic faith is so against this knowing there would be less parishioner to contribute to the wealth of Rome. ![]()
This fight over Planned Parenthood is a political agenda on the other side of the aisle since they are using it as a spending cut to make sure the wealth of this country continues their tax breaks and also knowing they are afraid of women being able to control their bodies would let them be more powerful in any other agenda they would proceed in. In others keeping women bare foot and pregnant or also taking us backward to cave man days washing our cloths with a rock by the creek.
Whatever is decided in this fight for women’s rights we still need to stand up in fact I’m confused how the women in our congress voted against Lilly Ledbetter Act. Why wouldn’t they stand up for their own gender knowing that women yes are paid 77cents less on every dollar than a man. How can they justify claiming it’s because a man works longer hours. ![]()
When in fact a women’s work is never done she starts her day getting her children ready for school or daycare if she has any, then off to work. After her day at the work place is finished another job begins at home with her family cooking cleaning homework. Who pays her for this job?
While I heard Ann Romney compare herself to the average women in our country I became ill, this women is clueless of what women go through on an average day. While she has her nanny the cook let’s not forget the cleaning person as she drives away in one of her Cadillac’s off to her charity luncheon she wouldn’t understand reality on a clear sunny day, never mind a cloudy one.
Now with poverty at its highest we know married couple always fights over money so domestic violence has risen and yet our political field would like to defund take out this law that would protect women from this act that men feel they would have the right to beat any women that doesn’t behave according to their way of rule. ![]()
There are some politicians trying to link Planned Parenthood to terrorism, since our federal amendment doesn’t prohibit people who donate to humanitarian originations such as Planned Parenthood, but during a politicians campaign it’s not considered terrorism when their funds are kept secret of whom is donating them this is the hypocrisy of most of what they try to hoodwink the American citizens with. ![]()
Also Ron Paul and let’s not forget Michele Bachmann with all their insane rhetoric joining forces now again behind another anti-abortion bill. Seems quite funny to me since all these politician that are fighting very hard to make sure every women give birth on one hand then on the other taking away their rights for a safety net and public education school lunches anything that would keep a person healthy or alive with dignity.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan of course is against Planned Parenthood and our Republicans are extremely content with this over joyed one would say, but as soon as the Bishops come out against the Ryan budget claiming it goes against what Jesus stood for this type of AUSTERITY would be devastating to any one person of the lesser class not of wealth as them.
Well we know why some of our politicians are afraid of women in a powerful position since it was the women who gave them the strength to be where they are today. We can do their job and ours in a heartbeat they know this if it frightens them into a ridiculous horrific place in their minds so they are trying their best to denounce us as an insect bring us backward where we have no voice or vote, back to a century where men could beat their wives without a law stopping them. Where we never left the house unless to clean a barn or wash the cloths with a rock by a creek.
Thank God we have at the moment a fine leader good looking great entertainer in fact I believe all our Presidents in the White House should be as President Obama, I mean look what happened when we had 8years of Bush we got screwed nobody took leadership to screw him back.
Maybe mistakes are what make our fate we learn from them never to go down that road again. Is it possible if we didn’t have 8 years of Bush and veered off course we wouldn’t have the 1st black American President in our White House, after all the people went through under the worst recession as a depression that was left to this President he didn’t screw us as our last Mr. Bush.
THIS IS A LEADER WHO WILL PROTECT WOMEN’S RIGHTS UNDERSTAND THE POWER IN US
Let’s Get Ready To Rumble Campaign On Who Will Be The Winner?

in LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE CAMPAIGN STARTS NOW
While last night our President was the jokester at the correspondent dinner, he’s always the 1st to make fun with all the political rhetoric being used against him in this arena in a new campaign for his re-election in a 2nd term for the people’s White House.
You’ll hear on the opposite side claiming were not better off since President Obama took office but knowing this is just exuberant outrageous lye being told by the Republican Party knowing they have no known policy out to help anyone or even that would create jobs or this country.
In fact Romney would not have made the same calls as far as capturing Bin Laden knowing he wants to bomb Iran or you will hear him claiming President Obama is very weak on foreign policy, when in fact our President has been more forceful than the Bush administration with drone attacks captured more Al Qaeda’s terrorist since he took office.
We know that the Bush/Cheney administration weren’t looking for any of the Al Qaeda cells they were more interested in torturing people without knowing if they had any information that would lead to finding the real threats to our country. And this is what Mit Romney’s policy would be taking us back to an era of the past.
The Republicans have criticized how President Obama relates to our young generation the middle class even how he was on the Fallon show slow jamming the news, which I thought was just fantastic because it shows how in touch this President is with all our new technology social media such as twitter or face book and how they young get out the news to all people & making them understand every word.
In fact you will hear the Republicans call our President an entertainer not a President (REALLY) well I’d say he’s a man of many talents that can multi task even when knowing our Navy Seals are on a very dangerous mission in Pakistan never does he blink or miss a step to the beat he continues as the show must go on. This in fact is a very important quality you want in a President. So is our President an entertainer, I’d say he’s man of experience that can command any type of a situation that only a true leader could.
The other disgusting part of this Republican Party while our President was being sworn in there were about seven to eleven Republicans plotting to destroy his 1st term making sure he’d fail never to be re-elected to another 2nd term also there is a book now out of this in factual terms, even knowing Mitch McConnell came out during the midterm election saying that congresses main goal was to make sure our President would be denied a 2nd term.
Well they were the do nothing congress making sure they blocked every bill that our President tried to have passed, here are just a few that our President promised in his campaign before elected in 2008 and because of the destruction of the Republican Party many of the promises weren’t able to be kept.
1. Gas $1.83 a gal.
2. 2 crude oil , European $43.48 brent (barrel
3. Present situation 29.9
4. U.S. Money supply, MI, in billions 1,575.1
Now these are just a few but you can’t fault the President on everything since John Boehner made sure that nothing would be passed except the tax cuts for the wealthiest in our country and let’s not forget the oil subsidies that our oil companies continue to receive when not paying taxes at all and how many other companies as GE, Exxon, Mobile, the list continues to grow longer because of the Republicans laws being pushed in every year without the vote by the American people but the ALEC CORP. help them with lobbying for them in every Republican state passing them in small pieces till people lose their right to vote or have a say on anything.
We know that Romney has flip flop so many time reared to the extreme right over the cliff but now wants to move into the center while he socializes with a man Judge Bork knowing back in 1987 people for the American Way led the fight to keep Judge Bork off the Supreme Court. And 25 years later we are happy for this accomplishment.
Bork has and still has a dangerous political agenda he would dismantle civil rights legislation he also wanted to impose a poll tax and literacy test before a person would be able to vote, he’d ban contraception and criminal sodomy laws. This man believed in giving to large corporations and people without wealth far behind didn’t care of the lesser class of people, now Romney thinks this man is a great example of what our country should set its values on.
Here we know President Obama has put forth much hard work for the people accomplished the capture of Bin Laden save the auto industry, improved home land security and in the Middle East. The President was also able to push through Medicare plan that will help many of Americans with pre-existing conditions, let’s not forget during the debt ceiling debates being held hostage all of us including the President he did pass the unemployment benefits unfortunately it had a very high price which meant extending the Bush tax cuts to the very wealth once again.
President Obama also created an artist corps for public’s schools, then of course the banking and financial reform act broad policy. There was also financial reform for consumer’s protection with small print on forms as mortgage and credit cards.
Here is a link anyone can put in their browser to find all our accomplishments of our President finished even with the do nothing congress.

Now we have the other half of this election Mit Romney that definitely needs to be debated. It’s clear that he is giving lip service to the American people trying to hoodwink most of the uneducated without knowledge of politics the games they play for their own power to win an office in our peoples White House.
M Mit
Mit is mostly remembered for his work at Bain & Company that bought up many corporations such as Pen & Pad chopped them up sold them into little pieces and he made a huge profit on all of them. While in fact we know that Romney isn’t sure if he’d sign bills that would protect fair wages for women in our country or even keep unions intact.
He has wrapped his arms around the Ryan budget as it’s the mottle of an excellent form for the people to be budget by. When knowing that it will bankrupt this country, putting the middle class out of business, leaving the poor to die our seniors in a box not to mention our veterans what will become to them. Unless their fighting in a war that Romney will be sure to start so then they will be feed by food stamp only if they are willing to die for the greed of our politicians.
On Social Security well we know that they all claim there won’t be any but this is an outrageous lie since if there are jobs in this country everyone pays into it, we just need our political field to stop stealing from it for their special projects, but Romney would raise the age once again on when you’d be able to collect your money that you have paid into for this privilege of your retirement. Knowing the math they give is very fuzzy since they will continue to keep their tax breaks plus giving more subsidies for big corporations such as Exxon, GE as the list will grow even longer.
Despite the fact Roe V Wade has been passed in the 60’s and Plan Parenthood has always supported it and at one time he was for it now has flip over for this election, in fact you will hear the very extreme right claim life begins after the women’s last menstrual cycle which of course is insane rhetoric at its worst.
On the gay issue our Republican candidate adamantly opposes same sex marriage and or any type of open homosexuality in our military. Again he was once for it but now running for the peoples White House is against. In fact now he is using such outlandish rhetoric as claiming he was for the auto company’s bailout when in fact on record we know he would have let them fail and bailed out Wall Street.
Romney is against our immigration when if I’m not wrong I do believe his father came from Mexico and he instead of serving in our military during Viet Nam wen to France hmm, Romney claims the SB1070 is a law that should be a model for the nation and would oppose the Dream Act.
What has happened to our politicians did they forget what this country has been built on if I’m not mistaken it was the immigrants that made this country what it is today, as strong and yes great.
The Republicans still as back with the Bush administration want to privatize the Social Security of our seniors knowing it would fluctuate with much uncertainty knowing the markets haven’t had much stability with this so called recession, plus they’d like to propose an increase to the Consumer Price Index instead of wage Index which would significantly undercut the purchasing power for the seniors that are dependent on their fixed income knowing they don’t have a portfolio.
Clearly this Republican Party Romney and company aren’t interested in solar clean energy since they have been pushing for the key stone pipe line knowing we won’t receive any of this oil into our country it would be all out sourced to the Far East and Europe, but they have invested much funds into this project so yes they want their profits now back into their portfolio.
They’d rather drill baby drill contaminating our water forests let’s not forget our wild life and the oceans the fish that swing in it. In fact Romney is a real advocate of exploiting fossil fuels on land, sea and definitely supports the key stone pipe line that risks contaminating underground water and much more of our environmental protection.
In the end result Romney does promise to resume his agenda on putting more pain upon the poor the middle class increasing the financial burden on all that don’t live in his social world or put a dog on top of their car, having tax havens overseas and together with his wife a total worth value of four billion dollars that they keep very quiet this is why he won’t ever show more than two years of tax returns.
Romney also promises to undo any regulations that were put on Wall St so they can resume business as usual go back to the gangster like ways. He will get rid of the EPA what the hell we don’t need regulations on our food water or medications without any of this for the real people anyway since no one would have the funds to pay for the everyday necessaries after Romney gets done destroying our safety net.
So this will be a very interesting campaign debates will RUMBLE the people will see the true in front of them soon let’s just hope the winner takes all without one fall. As I know President Obama is one of our best poker face players can debate it is his best fate as 2010 during that correspondent’s dinner when Bin Laden was killed the show still went on.
Evita Peron (Does President Obama Have The Same Ideals?)
25 Apr 2012 3 Comments
in THE RACE 4 THE WHITE HOUSE CAMPAGIN
It’s been over a decade since I’ve seen the play Evita; still it’s burned inside my mind of how poor women could rise to power with never compromising her belief in caring of the people in her country Argentina. She had no record of her birth place; her baptismal certificate, however, lists the date of birth as 7 May 1919 under the name Eva Maria Ibarguren it is believed that in 1945 the adult Eva Peron created a forgery of her birth certificate for her marriage.
Her father and mother were descended from Basque immigrants; Juan Duarte was a wealthy rancher from nearby Chivilcoy, where he already had a wife and family. During this time period in rural Argentina, it was not uncommon to see a wealthy male with multiple families. In the early 1920’s Juan left Evita and returned to his legal family. Which left Juana Ibarguren and her family of five children in a severe state of poverty? As a result of the impoverishment, Ibarguren and her children moved to the poorest area of Junín in order to support herself and her children, Ibarguren sewed clothes for neighbors.
The family was stigmatized by the abandonment of the father, especially since Argentine law frowned upon illegitimate children. Eva allegedly destroyed her birth certificate in 1945 so as to erase this part of her past. In 1936, Eva toured nationally with a theater company, worked as a model, and was cast in a few B-grade movie melodramas. In 1942, Eva experienced some economic stability when a company called Candilejas sponsored by a soap manufacturer hired her for a daily role in one of their radio dramas called Muy bien which aired on Radio El Mundo World Radio, the most important radio station in the country at that time.
It’s been told in history she would romance the higher rank military to gain the power she needed to get back what she believed she was entitled to. Some sources, however, also hint at a more scandalous lifestyle. Writing in 1972, Nobel Prize winner V.S. Naipaul states: "She was the macho’s ideal victim-woman don’t those red lips still speak to the Argentine macho of her reputed skill in fellatio?
On 15 January 1944, an earthquake occurred in the town of San Juan, Argentina, killing six thousand people. In response, Peron, who was then the Secretary of Labor, established a fund to raise money to aid the victims. Shortly after meeting, Eva Duarte and Juan Peron began to live together. This move is said to have scandalized some in Juan Peron’s inner circle. During this time period in Argentina, entertainers and politicians were seen as two distinct classes of people. Additionally, it was considered improper for an unmarried couple to share quarters. Peron, however, introduced Eva to his inner circle of political associates and advisors. He even allowed Eva to sit in on his meetings with close advisors and members of government. Fraser and Navarro claim that Peron’s decision to involve Eva in his political life is difficult to understand, because it could open him to scandal and damage his career.
Juan Peron’s had become very involved with the people in Argentina fighting for union rights
in fact he did time in prison for a while but the people protested outside everyday & evening until his release. After he saw the effect Evita had on the people of Argentina how she could create such an atmosphere of peace for all to follow her words actions Juan Peron decided to run for President in Argentina.
Of course knowing the power Evita would have she campaigned hard for this man to win and so he did. Evita gave to the poor all of them would throw money out to everyone. Growing up without wealth the finer things in life knowing how it was to go hungry were cloths that represented rags, her goal was to give every human a fair chance at an opportunity to live with dignity equality of life. Make sure every person had a job with a union to protect their rights in a work place never to be without a fair wages for their work.
The Societal de Beneficence (Society of Beneficence), a charity group made up of 87 society ladies, was responsible for most charity works in Buenos Aires prior to the election of Juan Peron. Fraser and Navarro write that at one point the Societal had been an enlightened institution, caring for orphans and homeless women, but that those days had long since passed by the time of the first term of Juan Peron. In the 1800s, the Societal had been supported by private contributions, largely those of the husbands of the society ladies. But by the 1940s, the Societal was supported by the government 
So now understanding a little of whom Evita Peron was during her life maybe you can see why I’m wondering is President Obama our Evita? Or is this just part of our political game our politicians play with human life to gain power in a political office?
As we know President Reagan believed in raising taxes & he was a Republican amazing, he also increased defense spending 35% also sought to improve relations with the Soviet Union. Over all as a Republican he wouldn’t be elected in our times now because he isn’t conservative enough for this Republican Party before us now. 
But yet you hear them claiming him as their hero in every debate there was, even John McCain believed in global warming, he also fought against torture techniques , being a POW himself during the Viet Nam war he understood what it meant to be Torture. Again McCain was our last Republican to run for the White House in 2008. Even he wouldn’t be conservative enough for this new party of Republicans.
We know that there is a foundation corporation call it what you want but it’s title is ALEC, it’s Supporters of discriminatory voter ID laws claim they want to reduce voter fraud (individuals voting illegally, or voting twice). But such fraud almost never actually occurs, and never in amounts large enough to affect the result of elections. What is clear is that voter ID laws prevent large numbers of eligible voters from casting a ballot, and could disenfranchise up to 5 million people.
ALEC’s voter ID laws are undemocratic, unjust and part of a longstanding right wing agenda to weaken the voting blocs that historically oppose Republican candidates. We have to expose them to for what they are to expose the major companies like Johnson & Johnson that are helping ALEC suppress the votes of millions of Americans before it’s too late. Let’s not forget how the NRA has support ALEC and the Stand Your Ground Law how devastating it’s been not just for Travon Martin but for others who have suffered under this horrific law which just gives a person the right to kill at the whim of any reason.
Also this ALEC has been working under handedly to help the Republican Party to push through bills/laws without the peoples vote or voices. We know that this voter ID law now in Arizona is so unjust undoubtedly unfair against every civil right according to our constitution that goes back to September 17, 1787, by the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and created by Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Thomas Paine, and John Adams – George Washington is credited with the responsibility of overseeing the Constitutional.
Now you hear these Republican talking about our founding fathers as if it were their own dad, yet they won’t use the law that have been put into practice to keep the country in a true Democracy. In fact they go totally against what was written in our constitution except for the 4th amendment which is Search and Seizure as now with the immigration laws in Arizona being tried in the courts. There is also the Second Amendment – Bearing Arms that our Grand Old Party loves this is why we have so many killings & let’s not forget how the NRA campaigns for the Republicans raises lots of money for all their special interest projects.
Maybe I’m wrong and so is our President Obama we should let there be a reverse of Robin Hood give to the wealthy take it from the poor why not. They don’t have much to take anyway, and as far as an education who needs it without any jobs in our country there all overseas out sourced to evade paying into our tax structure to help our debt ceiling budget. 
Health care throw that away also lets die without money food or a home what is there to live for, we know that our President might be our Evita but the Republicans are ruthless without humanity for anyone but themselves, so how do we fight an enemy that seems to be like the demon himself?
Maybe we need to do an exorcism on all of this Grand Old Party that can’t feel for anyone but themselves. Truly they don’t care of human life unless you’re socializing in that same super club. Hope you have a portfolio with a lobbyist holding money to give to your hedge fund manager to support your new car elevator in just one of your grand summer homes.
No well then your out of luck to hell with anyone that isn’t of their class of wealth, you see Mr. President Obama you’re on the right track but not singing their song. They aren’t crying for you or me not any of the 99% of thee.
In fact they would now want to eliminate all color reduce the rate of any color except the WHITE people coming into this beautiful USA. So President Obama we need to yes change a few things here like this horrific type of AUSTERITY being Robin Hood in total reverse.
This Tyranny is unbecoming to most people as unfair we want you Mr. President Obama to stand with us as our union together fight as our EVITA not just for a political office but for the PEOPLE who need you now. Were all counting on you as we did back when in 2008 all your promises yes understandable you did have the do nothing congress but that song will fade fast when and if your win your second term.
So is President Obama our EVITA will he stand up march with our unions defend the American people as one united together in fairness for all, stopping the games that politicians play to gain their fame.
SHE GAVE SO MUCH OF HERSELF FOR THE PEOPLE OF HER COUNTRY EVEN IN DEATH THEY STILL LOVE HER :
IS PRESIDENT OBAMA UP TO THE TASK OF BEING OUR EVITA ??
