In Zogby We Trust

The Democratic Party is dead. The Republican party is dead. Neidemeyer...DEAD!!! They have failed this country time and time again by putting their own political ambitions ahead of values, ideals, and integrity.

It is ironic how in 1765 the Stamp Act was passed and our forefathers set in motion the machinations that resulted in the American Revolution, and now we have elected "representatives" more concerned with the free postage they receive as perks as opposed to the fact that over twenty five million Americans use food stamps to feed their families. The Democrats are the party of "the poor", well I ask you what have they done to alleviate the hunger of our starving?

Its funny how in 1860 Congress passed The Morill Tariff Bill thereby crippling the agricultural South and setting in motion the actions that would result in The Civil War, and now we have "representatives" cutting ribbons in Asia, South America, and elsewhere for their Geo-Corporate Conglomerate pimps. The Republicans are the party of "business" , well I ask you what have they done to keep the steel mills open in Pennsylvania, or to keep the Carolina furniture industry from moving to China?

October 2, 2002 The 107th Congress 2nd Session overwhelmingly passed H.J. Res. 114 authorizing the use of force against Iraq by a vote of 77-23 in the Senate and 296-133 in the House, and now that there is blood on the streets of Baghdad and the constant barrage of anti-war propaganda by the MSM has swayed public sentiment they are running like the chickenhawks they are. If polls showed popular support for this war, would we be witnessing this political poppycock. Its time to put the safety of our soldiers and this Nation first.

Where are the Patriots in American politics. Where have the great men that put political party aside in favor of doing what they felt was in the best interest of America. Where are the 'Profiles in Courage' that John F Kennedy wrote about as a junior Senator. Ideology has been replaced by electability. We have become a nation ruled not by men but by men that are ruled by polls. This is what makes the job that President George W Bush is doing all the more impressive. His approval rating is at its lowest, his opponents are attacking him with a ferocity never before seen in modern politics, his own party is abandoning him in droves. I may disagree with my President on many issues, but I agree with him that the "War on Terror" we are waging is the single most important threat facing this country today and tomorrow. I was in New York City in 2001 and others may forget that the terrorists brought the fight to us, but I dont and I wont....and thankfully polls and public opinion aside neither does President George W Bush.


Give em Hell Dubya!!!


(now cut frivolous federal spending and build that gosh dang wall to secure our borders)

excellent. dead on about the electability thing. no one cares what's right anymore, just what's popular. sickening. We need a third party, a REAL independent party.

Great post D-, very fair and balanced! As a little kid I received a letter from Sen Ted Kennedy and even at a young age I was disgusted that they don't have to pay postage (especially since it was a personal letter)! It is impressive that Bush is sticking to his guns and both sides should at least give him credit for that...Give 'em hell Donkey!

Jimbo said...

Hey Fly, did Senator Kennedy drive your sister off a bridge too?

Fly Kopeckne?

Mookie McFly said...

They are some strong swimmers those Kennedy's...If I had a sister, I would hope she had enough sense to never go on a date alone w/a Kennedy! And if i had a sister she could fly and would be fly so she wouldn't have drowned in Chappaquiddick...and maybe Teddy (not baseball Teddy) would have been president of the United States! EWWWaAUUGGhhHH (puking noises)

I disagree Rhino, I think we need two new parties, the old ones dont work anymore.

~Jim, paragraphs are for suckers I can assure you it was unintentional.

Gadfly, are you sure it wasnt a bar tab he sent you?

JC Watts, by "them" I hope you mean the Dems if so I agree, bcuz I think youd agree that militarily we are WINNING in Iraq. Shock and Awe on Hyannis would be an excellent start.

I didn't say it wasn't a bar tab but I was like 13 so maybe...I never heard anything about the Kennedy's being cheap...Why do they like to run up big bar tabs drinking?
