Simple - Vote Democrat and Defeat Republicans

Tweet

Tribune Excerpt:
Giuliani accused Clinton in Tuesday’s Republican debate and again yesterday of being hostile to tax cuts and free markets — fighting words to the center-hugging Democrat — but her campaign did not take the bait.

Bait? Abortion, gay marriage and gun rights are bait. It is a little early for this debate but I’d love to take Guiliani up on that.

Democrats have to know that the tax cuts Guiliani is referring to is the current shift of Republican sponsored tax increases from the Fed to the local level in every state in the union. Why don’t they call them on it? Simply, the Republican supported Bush tax cuts to the rich ARE TAX INCREASES at every local level in the country, everything from property taxes to sales taxes to tolls and including the banter about a flat tax. Any Republican mentioning the Bush tax cuts should be asked, “Why is nearly every state in the union looking for revenue and increasing taxes? AND how can you expect all people to pay the same percentage of tax regardless of their income? Why should a group collecting over 75% of all the income pay less than 75% of all taxes due? AND what is a Republicans definition of the “free markets?” Since we still have some environmental regulations and labor protections and unions in many industries, the very things republicans set out to destroy, certainly America can't fit their definition of the “free markets.” So who does? Countries like Mexico and China are at the top of the Republican sponsored corporate greed free markets right now.

I plainly do not get it - "it" being the endless, brutish, ignorant tirades against Hillary or ANY Democratic front-runner, especially coming from some my fellow Democrats.

I also don't get the idea that if a Democrat or a liberal happens to be wealthy, well they are hypocrites. They can't possibly work to empower the poor and reach out to the working masses and be wealthy at the same time. B.S. The Democratic platform is about prosperity for all - nothing less.

I can certainly understand some thinking that the Dems have sold out too, that they are complicit with the corporate power brokers controlling Congress. But for some reason the Republicans don’t have this problem – their goal is to win, corporate connections and all.

It’s just so obvious: Elect a Democrat and defeat the Republicans.
It's a simple concept, with no hidden meanings, messages or agendas.
Elect a Democrat and defeat the Republicans.
As a blogger with the world as my audience, I’m asking every Democrat to vote for the Democratic front-runner in 2008, whomever it might be.

Then, with the Republicans defeated, everyone can resume their business. Would life then be perfect?
Absolutely not, but the Republicans and their plans to destroy public schools, Social Security and shift tax increases from the Fed to the locals would be defeated, and that is what counts.
I just do not get it. Maybe it’s just me and I'm dreaming too much.
