The Gun Control Negotiations are also deeply flawed and fail to address grave problems that affect each and every American and the Global Community in ways that our nation chooses to ignore rather than address head-on; we will attempt to concentrate upon what we believe are inconsistencies on both sides of our Two-Party (Sic) Political System and will ask questions that still remain unanswered and unless publicly addressed, make the Gun Control Negotiations a political football rather than seeking real solutions to this issue. The general public is still unaware of many of the dangers that face this nation and have the potential to rip our country apart if not handled with openness and credible arguments and facts rather than political rhetoric and obstructionism.

Is the Presidency and Congress complete imbeciles or have they been bought and sold by Corporate America and Multinational Corporations? When you allow corporations to eviscerate our tax base by outsourcing our light and heavy manufacturing, not to mention our technical support positions, it doesn't take a 5th Grader to envision how that will impact our ability to pay our nations debt. I might add that all which is stated above are facts, not supposition and/or opinion! How in the heck can Grover Norquist get the GOP to pledge not to raise taxes when we are paying the lowest level of taxes since the 1950's and we suffer from a revenue problem caused by and through a corrupt Congress that enabled Corporate America to outsource what is in effect - most of our economy?

Romney’s get tough on China is BS and he knows it, he’s merely pandering to a clueless electorate. Most anyone with a basic understanding of the global economy, currency exchange and business alliances forged between U.S multinational corporations and China can perhaps figure out how his rhetoric rings hollow…

We’re long overdue for busting up the monopoly this bogus two-party has over our political system and our legislative processes. The Democratic Party dates back to 1790 while the Republican Party dates back to 1854 and that’s long enough...

It's no wonder congress has been polling so low. Since the internet was invented, Americans are starting to find out just how congress really works…did congress actually have to pass a (watered-down) law forbidding them to conduct insider trading on the stock market? Members of congress (as well at state legislatures, governors, etc.) are already above the law on almost everything else as it is now. They certainly don't lead by example, so why are they called our "leaders"…

The reality is that many of our elected officials no longer believe they are answerable to the people; that the Constitution is merely an outdated piece of paper; and that we the people are largely simpletons whom they mock with their political spin and tales – their smug demeanor evident all the way to the bank. And sadder still is that we mostly prove them correct as we habitually fall along our divisive party lines. Mitch Gurney

A glaring contradiction exists in which some conservatives take issue with welfare for the needy but not for the wealthy or corporations…they hate these programs because they believe they create freeloaders and that people should fend for themselves, except for the wealthy and corporations of course… Consequently their mantra is welfare creates freeloaders and demand the programs be cut…but seldom do they demand cuts to subsidies that benefit the wealthy and corporations nor even acknowledge the existence of the corporate welfare system.

“From every mountainside, let freedom ring. When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be ...

How can President Obama and our Congress make the public believe they are sincere in cutting the federal deficit when both parties are ignoring tens of billions of dollars in Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security savings that could be accomplished without impacting services or unduly causing hardship to our seniors and the nation’s disadvantaged? Our ... Read More »

America’s companies are ambassadors representing our nation and the American people around the world. With crap like this occurring is it any wonder why so many people don’t like us?
