A DREAM, OR THE TRUTH

ACTUALLY...........

The middle-class,  this may say it all..........

ROMNEY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THE MIDDLE CLASS

ACTUALLY.....Have you heard that Mitt Romney has a "plan for a stronger middle class"?  HaHaHa, that's a good one!  Mitt Romney doesn't even have a plan.  Instead he has things that he dreams of happening.  Things like lower taxes for the wealthy, smaller government, weaker rights for the workers.  What he really wants is to find a way to get more income to the 1%.  He is so far out of touch with the real world, he has no clue about a solution for the middle class.

If Romney is elected President a great percentage of  Americans' standard of living will fall.  During his business career he outsourced American jobs to foreign countries, bought companies that were not prospering well only to wind up forcing them into bankruptcy, while he made millions.  He even mentioned that he likes to "fire people".  He brags about his wealth and has said many times that he's not ashamed of  being successful.  Nor should he be, if his wealth was earned in an honest and respectful way.  Mitt Romney is so full of himself and so arrogant that he actually believes all the crap he puts out.

 I'm sure he doesn't like to admit it, but there really is someone wealthier than he is.  Billionaire Warren Buffet  told ABC News "If anything, taxes for the lower and middle class and maybe even the upper middle class should even probably be cut further.   The rich say give us more money, and we'll go out and spend more, and then it will all trickle down to the rest of you. But that has not worked the last 10 years, and I hope the American public is catching on.  But I think that people at the high end,  people like myself, should be paying a lot more in taxes. We have it better than we've ever had it."

In my opinion, the real problem is that Mitt Romney doesn't have the slightest idea what it's like to live on a budget, trying to stretch that dollar as far as it will go, will they be able to pay their mortgage.  He's never been middle class and I bet if you ask him he probably has no idea how the American people, that don't have the wealth he has, manage to put food on the table, send their children to school and live in a safe neighborhood.  That silver spoon is jammed so far in his mouth that he can't even think about those who are less fortunate than he has always been.

The middle class Americans don't send their children to private schools Mitt - they're not raised in houses with servants that cook and clean for them, and a lot of them are in day care centers while both their parents are working.  A great majority of them are dependent on Planned Parenthood, because they can't afford to pay a doctor for the routine check-ups that are necessary to keep them healthy.  They work hard for years so that they can some day retire and take advantage of Medicare and Social Security.

Gov. Romney if you would just climb down off that high horse of yours and walk in the shoes of the middle class maybe, just maybe, you could understand the life that you have never lived.

SAME-SEX MARRIAGE

ACTUALLY, as the world and it's clerical views are changing, our President made a very bold and courageous statement when he explained his vision for a better America.  In his words he said a better America applies to everyone "no matter what you look like, no matter what your last name is and no matter who you love".  He believes that every American should be treated with respect and dignity - a fair chance for everyone regardless of your sexual orientation.  I'm sure this was not an easy thing for him to do, however, he discussed his decision with his family and was well aware of the political riskiness involved.  He was certainly aware of the sensitive issue of a traditional marriage between a man and a woman for a lot of people, but he followed his best judgement and acknowledged that gays and lesbians should have the same equal right of marrying their loved one.  His repeal of "don't ask, don't tell" is going smoothly in the military.  According to Defense Secretary Panetta, it is in no way affecting the morale, and the troops are ready to carry on their task of protecting 
America.

It's absolutely no surprise that the strong opposition to same- sex marriage is coming from Mitt Romney and his Republication co-hearts.  Gov. Romney also opposes civil unions and has said he would back a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage.  They are justified in their beliefs and their lifestyle, but not in their effort to use the government to enforce their views on others.  The governments job is not to legislate morality.  As Gov. Romney made a spiritual speech At Liberty University last week, among other issues, he spoke of defining what he believes is the true American experience.   He has described himself as "one of the nation's leading advocates" against same-sex marriage.

The President did not come out in support of this as a political statement, it was a deep well thought out personal decision.  Yes, President Obama may have put himself at risk politically.  He believes the forces of history are changing and his message sends hope and value to the young people who are struggling to come out - and that, my friends, is certainly life changing, There are already signs that the endorsement of same-sex marriage has convinced a number of liberal donors who were on the sidelines to contribute to the Presidents campaign.

And now we move on to other important issues and  FORWARD TO OBAMA IN 2012!
