Remember When Republicans said Social Security, And Medicare Would Destroy Freedom Too? @TPM http://talkingpointsmemo.com/...
Congress is here to lead us into a better tomorrow than today. The past two years
Have been the least productive in history.I was convinced nothing in history can top
This level of ineptitude. I am flabbergasted that people elect racists and crazy people.
After some research, history shows a backlash from Republican's when Social Security,
Medicare became part of our society. The word Communism screamed from every Republican
In the land. Most of the talking points today against the ACA were the same ones
Heard when the last major health laws became part of society. Nowhere could I find
A Congress that tried 50 times to repeal the ACA Act. This fact is new.
Republicans on Tuesday get their chance to lead.They can no longer be the anti-Obama group. They have to try and pass a law or program. Revenue neutral will be words you will
hear all the time, Every program that costs something, another program"s funding needs
cutting.
A 90-year-old man walks every day. he knows I am in awe of him. He has lived through
the depression, war, death of his wife and daughter, and he still can laugh and smile.
"The Liberals today call themselves progressives. " it seems like you guys are afraid
of anything that might make some crazy person hate you, the hell with them, get out
in front of what your side stands for." "Break your message down so people understand
it." "Republicans got to define you guys, learn from that."
Social Security, Medicare is now an accepted law. The old man was for the ACA.
His wife got treatment that kept her alive longer. Unions should be made stronger,
Immigrates should fight harder than ever. Agriculture would crumble if no one picked
the fruit. Marches need to be organized and people should say what they want. Too
often, people see marchers as an unruly group that interrupts their lives. History
has shown our side usually wins on social issues. Our country is falling apart, our kids
aren't being educated. Bridges in the busiest parts of our country need replacing.
The old man and a lady friend took a three-week cruise which included a stop in Turkey.
Over 20 million people now live in Istanbul. People are flooding there. Over 50,000
new babies have been born in that country since the uprising in Syria.There is no room
to put everybody. Turkish people for the most part, don't like these people from Syria.
Genocide is happening now. America can help.but all civilized nations need to help.
It's a treat for me to learn from a person who has lived through what we only read about.
I plan to follow his advice and hope to attend his 100th birthday party.
