This is how you fight in this environment... This is the campaign to win moderates and Independents.. It also should be going out across the blogs.... I think I will buy a desk... If you can it might be fun to make this story last.... Liberals progressives Democratic party members ... We should buy some more desks .... Even half a desk or any number that is possible... It is the time of giving gifts and teaching good values... Universal values of education and care for other Humans... Watch this segment you will understand... If not this then something that helps your community be a better place... Food pantries need help... Blood banks need blood...
This is something the president should be stressing.... Our National resources all of our power including but not limited to, our whole business community and people. Sadly this is something the Government should have been doing all along with teacher training, foreign exchanges etc. with all the international community.... This is really IMHO something that should be beyond Ideology, Party, State and Country etc.
When did things like this become political footballs? Maybe they always have been... Alot of you got tax cuts you did not really need. In the end we will all pay for it one way or another.... The question is when and how much.... Our own coming internal political fights should be no brainers... If you make under a certain Income or have Liberal values. The next two years politically are defense and partial solutions at best. It is fighting for education funding and Healthcare and Finical regulation dollars... We gotten a few wins at the end of this monstrosity of a cycle we should be proud of and kicked the can down the road on some others in balance it leaves us to fight another day. At least we seem to have enough adults to pass this start treaty. The Senate needs to approve the first responders bill and get some judges in the courts a few liberals is not going to mess the balance up and the courts need good smart Americans. An issue that moderates and liberals should focus more on more and bring up consistently. Those are fights we have coming along with improving other issues. Remember healthcare is Still the real long term issue facing our society. It is not Social security. Fixing health care even after the reform is still the battle in the budget for the future... For another day or two at least.
The issue of giving and in foreign aid is one that can't be in replace of domestic aid but it should be a national priority. It is a quintessential American Value... We need to put up in other areas... Republicans and Democratic party members should remember our Foreign aid to Military spending ratio is not great. Foreign Aid is Soft power it is what keeps wars from happening. It advances societies and build a better world. Keeping the peace is maybe more important than we think at times. Building better societies is American. Democratic Open Societies with enlightened values...
We are in a global fight against ignorance and intolerance and Opportunity in all countries including our own how we get there is suppose to be the argument not that we get there. This is even IMHO a western society problem and we are not pulling our weight IMHO.... Sorry that may have been a little of a Rant....
I can't wait until the Daily Show and Colbert respond....
Here is the MSNBC site to buy a desk....
