A simple question for Democrats

For my final entry tonight, here is something I just noticed over at Drudge’s site.

To all those who all of those who are Democratic Party voters; I have a simple question for you —- Tell me, which President did you vote for?  No, seriously —– this is an honest question from someone who used to be in your Party and voted for Democrats until 2008.  Again, I ask you; for what kind of Democratic Party President did you vote?

I seem to remember a President who ran on a huge platform of openness and transparency.  I seem to remember a President that said he would be very different from the last President that ran this Country.  I seem to remember this President saying that there would be change in this Country.  I seem to remember a President who promised that he would be a reason to hope again for the many in this Country that had no hope in the Government and those who served in it.

If that is the case, then why is stuff like this here happening to members of the media, in San Francisco no less?

Richman reported he was ushered out of the fundraiser after Biden started taking a few questions from the audience of about 110 campaign contributors.  “The event raised somewhere between $275,000 and $1.1 million,” according to his report.  —via Biden’s oops moment in SF: “Giants on their way to Super Bowl” | Politics Blog | an SFGate.com blog.

I am sorry, but even I as a former Democratic Party voter, someone who simple decided to vote differently, than I had voted in the prior elections cannot help but think that this here is nothing more than good old fashioned political corruption at its finest.  Why would a Vice-President, who is serving in one of the supposedly most open administrations in the history of the office of the President, allow a member of the media to be hustled out of a fundraiser?

In case the members of the Barack Obama administration have forgotten, San Francisco is your base block of people who voted for you.  If it were not for the voters of that city and many more like it, ol’ Barry would be cooling his heels in Chicago right about now.  I believe that Independent Liberals need to really look hard at this man’s record; they need to look at stuff like this and honestly decide if this man is worth of four more years in the White House.  I mean, look at this SOPA act, that was a Democrat bill, not a Republican one. I can assure you that four more years of this man would bring more laws like this one.  I know that Barack Obama came out against it; yes, after all of the fuss was made about it!

The question is this; do you really feel like you can trust this President again?  Are you better off today than you were 3-4 years ago?  Do you have the same amount of money?  Do you have the same job?  Is your business that you run making the same amount of money as it did 3 or 4 year ago?  Do you feel like anything really honestly changed in this Country at all?

We all as Americans must ask these questions to ourselves in the coming months.  I am not believe me when I tell you this; asking this question in a sarcastic manner, nor am I saying that the Republican field is any better than what is there now.  However, I think that everyone, independents, and centrists — everyone needs to really ask themselves, “Is this really what I want my Country to be like for four more years?”  Look, we tried “hope and change” and it failed.  Do we want to try it again, with a new slogan?  I mean, aside from a few noticeable exceptions, I have not seen any fruits of anything that this current President has even done; at least nothing that honestly affected me at all here in the Detroit area.

President Barack Obama promised jobs and a big economy.  Only big thing we got out of it was high unemployment and a whole bunch of debt, which you and I and our kids and grandkids will be paying off for a long time.  Am I saying Republicans will do any better?  I would like to think that the debt might slow down a bunch; but I do not trust Romney at all.  However, I think the attitude of “Business as usual in D.C.” is not going to work anymore, with the crash of the market and the rise of Tea Party movement.  I believe the Republican Party knows this and so does Mitt Romney.  However, I do not trust him at all.

You see, this right here is why I did not, when the Iraq War ended, I just did not say, “Okay, bye!  The Iraq is over; I’m leaving and going back to watching TV and ignoring the World!”  Believe me I wanted to!  I am tired of sitting here hunched over a keyboard and writing for hours.  It sometimes gets very old.  I get tired of fussing with servers and fussing with software and so forth.  However, I am plugged into what is happening in this Country and I just cannot walk off like that.  I would feel as if I were abandoning the cause.

I end this rather long missive by simply saying to everyone who reads this — think.

  1. Have you tried watching Rachel Maddow on MSNBC? Over the past 3 years more private sector jobs have been created then during the entire 8 years of Bush. Did you read Andrew Sullivan's article of Pres. Obama last week? If not, go read it. You will see many of the things you are upset about simply isn't true. Andrew also follows up on his site with reader reactions to his article.

    I voted for President Obama and will again. I believe he has came a long way and I am willing to give him 4 more years to finish what he has started.

      No, I don't make a habit of watching professional liars.

      I haven't seen any around these parts; nor have I been interviewed for any.

      Sorry, I stopped that mentally and morally depraved buffoon seriously, when he started obsessing over Sarah Palin's uterus.

      yeah, you try telling this guy here, who's butt is about to get put the wringer that what I say is not true.
