Shutdown Over, Government Open, Now What?

Let's put this in perspective, shall we....one faction of one party in one house, almost managed to destroy the greatest nation on this planet over one piece of legislation that had been voted upon, passed by both houses of Congress, signed into law by the President and then vetted by the United States Supreme Court.

It is law and as such, cannot and never could be repealed via the method used for the past two weeks by the Teabaggers and their enablers.

All the players knew this, so why proceed by playing a game you can't win....unless the real purpose was not to win concesssions on healthcare, but to try and put the Black man in the White House back in his place?

Didn't matter that the Black man has won two elections by landslide and has the country moving economically in the correct (not right) direction. Doesn't matter that the deficit is going down or that the stock market is breaking new records and some people at least, are making bucket loads of money.

This 26 million dollar a day fight to end Obamacare, lay off thousands of workers and close parks and divisions and governmental departments, was solely to prove that the masters of the universe were still large and in charge, holding all the reins of power.

But it didn't work. President Obama laughed and refused to budge. Reports say a woman, was behind him finding his big brass balls (Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser, not Michelle, first wife, this time.)

And if you take a closer look at this “fight,” you will see that the bigoted culture warriors had to be bailed out by the women. The deal was forged by the women of Congress, who stepped in and took over in order to save the country.

Women, by nature, understand that the needs of the many outweigh the needs and wants of the few. In other words, if the boys get their way...women, children and other men die...they kill everything including the planet..something the masters of the universe have yet to come to grips with or understand, since they keep doing it over and over and over.

So to sum it up, the old masters of the universe lost to the Black man and then had their collective asses saved by women, their second biggest enemy in their battle for power and control.

Having 20 women in the Senate is a good thing. Replacing the obstructing masters of the universe is also a good thing.

We can start with my own Representative, Steve “Comb-over” Chabot who hasn't had an original idea since he was born. In fact I now understand why public schools are so screwed up..with teachers like Chabot, our kids are fucked from jump.

District two would be wise to dump Dr. Brad as well. Wenstrup, otherwise known as Jean Schmidt in pants is another obstructionist who needs a quick and early retirement as well, before he has a chance to do any more damage.

Boehner, Boehner, Boehner...voted in favor of the deal after abdicating his duties as Speaker of the House and enabling these nutcases to control the Republican echo chamber during this failed power grab.

Vote him out of office, please, 8^th District. He survived the Newt Gingrich purge. He should not live through the coming one.

Wish I could say that I'm happy, but I'm not. All this deal does is delay any decision making until February, making a replay of events, a distinct possibility.

The President says that won't happen, but I don't know, these fools voted 44 times to repeal a law that is a law, and part of the Constitution.

The pessimist in me says number 45 will happen in February, unless Americans put down their cell phones and other toys and begin voting these guys out of office.

One last thought if you believe things will be different in February...think about how long it took them to gut the Voting Rights Act of 1965....it can happen, if the system is not changed soon..

Remember in November and Vote...

Dear John Boehner

Mr. Speaker,

It has certainly been a rowdy couple of days, what with all the rulings being handed down by the United States Supreme Court. Today the Supremes struck down the Defense of Marriage Act, signed into law by Bill Clinton several years ago, and vigorously defended by your own Congress to the tune of 2.3 million dollars of taxpayer's money, when the White House ordered the Department of Justice to stand down.

But you knew this was gonna happen because most of the country, your constituents were against you before you committed the money. But it's no biggie. The duckets didn't come out of your pocket. It's not like you are sequester-bound or in a budget crunch like the rest of us. And you still have DOMA solidly in place in Ohio for the foreseeable future.

I'm happy that DOMA went down but I'm not here to gloat. That's not the purpose for this letter. I want to talk about the decision that came down on Tuesday. You know the one that eviscerated the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The law that was signed by Lyndon Baines Johnson and effectively changed the United States for the better, according to some of us, anyway.

Judging from the response by the Grand Old Party of which you are considered to be one of the guiding lights in your capacity as Speaker of the House, you guys are being very quiet. I mean you got what you wanted. Your posse on the high court just about knocked the Black off us, shoving us toward the back of the bus once again, reminding us of our place in your country. You have real cause for celebration, after all you all have been working for years to remove this particular thorn in your side and change the course of history. Yesterday must have felt almost as good as rewriting the ending to the War between the States. Symbolically at least, you slapped my people back into chains.

But let me put a bug in your ear, if I may. The GOP took quite a beating in the last national election. I mean that Kenyan has laid two beat downs in a row on ya, now. The good news is he can't run again. But it looks like you're headed for oblivion electorally because you and your boys in Congress spend more time in the bars and on the golf course than you do legislating. Other than making laws to disenfranchise women, you're not legislating at all.

Doing nothing is hurting the President, yes. But it's also kicking your ass, too. In order to take back control permanently your party really and truly does need to attract Blacks, Browns and everybody else who is not white and male, in order to win the next election and survive. Your GOP chairman and all other speaking members of your party say you must be more inclusive. So why not take this nugget from the Supreme Court and repackage the Voting Rights Act. What have you got to lose. Everybody expects you to let it lay. Let it die. Not act on it. I mean that's been your modus operandi for five years now.

Flip the script. Do something to remind Black people that you once were the party of Lincoln. Call a meeting with the NAACP. Invite the Revs Al, Jesse and TD. Talk about millions of brownie points. Man, just think of all the Clarence Thomas wannabes or little Herman Cains or Mia Loves who will come popping out of the woodwork to join the Grand Old Party and become bonified Republicans instead of closeted ones. Give us a reason to like you and to wanna be you. You need to come out of your shell, John, and teach poor people how to make money like republicans. But you can't teach unless you can get them to listen to you. And that is not gonna happen as long as you guys continue to play bigot monopoly in America.

Let's just talk plain English here. You guys are dying out. Your party of old white people is about to go extinct. Soon it will be too late, especially given the kind of laws you're attempting to push through against women. Women already outnumber you. Women are the sleeping giant, the 600 pound gorilla in the room taking a nap. What happens when women wake up. I mean really wake up and realize they don't have to vote like their husbands or daddies do anymore. What happened overnight in Texas should have scared you to death.  Smart guys like you think you all are, would dump the stupid anti-woman language and laws asap. Smart guys would announce that you're going to rewrite the VRA law and make it current, just like the Court said to do.

The announcement alone would make a lot of folks happy. Following through might win you the next election or at least make you more competitive than you appear now. Why not try it?

What have you really got to lose?

John since you're from the Nati, too, you're very familiar with the phrase “when pigs fly.” Well, I figure you'll read this and act on my suggestions when Porkie takes off from Lunken.

Have a great day Mr. Speaker because I think  your days are numbered whether you act or not.

Respectfully yours.

I Wish a Nigga Would Ask Me for a Note About My Birth Control Pills

FIRED....For using birth control pills to prevent pregnancy or to simply plan the size of your family...

But okay to use the pills to cure acne or to regulate your periods...

Don't laugh...this is a real bill that has been proposed in Arizona...by a woman, no less. I don't like to call women names, because this is how this crap got started in the first place (think Rush Limpballs).

But this brainless, brainwashed bitch is serious. And of course the no brained neanderthals of her legislature are jumping on the bandwagon and following her over the cliff like a bunch of blind lemmings. They have voted it through the justice committee. Justice committee. Can you believe it...justice for who...not women, certainly. What the hell is going on in Arizona? Have we switched into Bizarro world and nobody knows except Arizona? First they pick on Latinos and brown skinned folks...now they are declaring war on women.

This proposed law wants to give employers the right to deny contraception to women for moral, or non medicinal reasons. It is the boss' sole discretion to grant insurance coverage for birth control as long as it doesn't make him or her feel bad, religiously unrighteous and or morally unclean.

And if the coverage is granted and the boss finds out that women are using the contraception to family plan or just have sex, she can be branded a liar and fired. 

So you know what's next, right...corporations are going to be allowed to not hire women during their optimum breeding years, so there is reduced worry about accidental pregnancies. Good way to lower insurance premiums and also free up the little women to do what god intended them to do....make babies and keep house.

After all women need to be controlled, right fellas....we're sluts if we use birth control pills....We're careless and irresponsible if we get pregnant....and murderers if we terminate the pregnancy....all that by our pretty little selves...no male involvement what so ever...right guys?

I wish an HR nigga would ask me for a note about my health practices!

And while Arizona is showing its ass, Congressional Teabaggers are attempting to do away with the Violence Against Women Act. The VAWA, like the Voting Rights Act of 1964-65 are not permanent acts and must be renewed, ensuring that the white men who govern this country still have control over minorities.

The teabaggers and GOP are balking because the Violence Act was updated to include gay couples, since same sex marriage is allowable in some states. The GOP is fighting it tooth and nail because the GOP does not support LGBT people, brown people, Latino people for female people. The Violence Act is up for another vote this afternoon on Capital Hill.

If you care, call your congressman or send him an email. These fools need to hear from us.

As for the State of Arizona....how about a practice run for those new bunker buster bombs being built for the Israelis to drop on Iran. Don't want to give our allies any dud weapons, do we? Arizona would be a good place to test out their effectiveness.
