“Tax-cuts as an act of bipartisanship,” what happened to cutting taxes for 95% of American families? Sen. Schumer made sure that he let the Sunday talk shows know that it was only through compromise with the Republicans that the tax cut’s are in the Stimulus package. And actually, it was with a statement made with a bipartisan presence of leaders of both houses of congress where Republican leaders pleaded for less spending and to divert more of the stimulus to cutting taxes such as for business, where Obama reassured them that he was not going to compromise anymore for the tax cuts because, as it was quoted from Rep. Cantor, Obama said “I won,” which I guess means that since he was elected by 53% of the American people, his ideas matter more than what the other 47% of Americans believe to be an economic stimulator. To reassure what I heard from so many Hillary supporters during the primary season, he is arrogant.
AND TODAY.
Nancy Pelosi wants more funding for contraception because it will act as a means of prevention of healthcare issues…"The family planning services reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children's health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those - one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government," she said in an interview on Sunday on ABC's This Week. I guess since kids are so expensive for the state, the ones that depend on their healthcare from the government…. If we can give out contraception, keep certain people from having kids, then that will save the government money. Does that sound a little like another country? One where they let you have one kid… kind of like population control maybe? If you having a kid is going to cost the state or federal government more money then you should just not have that kid. If someone has a different take on what Nancy Pelosi said, please tell me because I really do not want to put words into her mouth, especially when her as a Roman Catholic is wanting to make sure everyone gets all the contraception they need. (i.e. Catholics are against any and all form of contraception with a slight deviation in extreme cases of AIDS).
Remember when Biden said that Vice President Cheney was the most dangerous Vice President in our history? Now he wants to make sure he is in on every meeting and is the last to leave the room, are you telling me he wants to have influence on policy? Trying now to see where he got off saying that Dick Cheney was the most dangerous VP? Vice President Cheney had some influence on policy; he was a confidant of President George W. Bush, not a co-president or shadow President as some have said. So Joe, please tell me the difference.
What else…
Today, Obama’s UN Ambassador came out and let it be known that direct diplomacy was still on the table with
One last thing. They voted Geithner in today. Yes, we now have a Treasury Secretary who was a tax cheat, who only paid when the Obama vetting team let him know that it would be an issue, and he needed to pay. That is great. Now, the next time you think about paying your taxes, don’t do it. And when the IRS calls, tell them “Oops, I pulled a Geithner, sorry!” And Obama came out on Thursday and signed an Executive Order setting restrictions on lobbyists in his administration. Guess what? Obama is appointing a former lobbyist from Raytheon to deputy Secretary of Defense. You can’t make this stuff up.
President Obama, a great first week in office, I am sure by the end of your second week, we will be able to see all the ‘Change’ that you wanted to bring, and that 53% of Americans voted for… what about the other 47% of us?
