Just the Sin City Saint THINKING OUT LOUD!
One of the favorite “buzzwords” the politicians keep using is “middle class.” Do you know who Romney or Obama are talking about when they use it? I don’t. It would be helpful if they would tell us who they mean when they say “the middle class.” I suspect they are not talking about the same people.
My curiosity got the better of me and I did a Google search to see what I could find. I got 510,000,000 results. I looked at a few.
Obama said it best when he said we are all in this together. It’s not about income redistribution, its about income fairness.
"It is what it is" is obviously true, but "que sera, sera" is not. I reject the idea that we have nothing to say about the future. We can not change the past, (although there have been many attempts to re-write history) but "what will be" is what we make it.
The total amount of money that is spent on salaries for the members of the military
Mit Romney is a nice guy and his wife loves him.
Paul Ryan once washed dishes and waited tables at a restaurant.
As President and Vice President they will “lead from the front.” I didn’t learn where they will lead us or what path we’ll follow.
They will “protect” medicare. They didn’t say who or what from or how they’ll do it.
They will “restore America’s future.” I have no idea what they mean by that and they didn’t say.
“UNAWARE OF THE CONTRADICTION…. There's an old joke that goes something like this: my neighbor went to public schools before joining the military. He went to college on the G.I. Bill, bought his first home through the FHA, and received his health care through the V.A. and Medicare. He now receives Social Security. He's a conservative because he wants to get the government off his back. I mention the joke because a surprising number of right-wing activists don't seem to appreciate the humor.
