John Boehner and the Republicans a Party Not for the People

Tonight on Capitol Hill the perpetual crier is smiling from ear to ear. House speaker John Boehner, the point man for a renegade of tea nippers successfully got his debt ceiling bill passed by a margin of 269-161. The bill is said to be controversial and was allegedly negotiated on both sides but initial reports reveal very little democratic design.

The Republic agenda for 2011 was to use their political strength to force President Obama against the ropes and to double Dutch their out of sequence, self motivated divisive, spineless bodies into formation and step on the financial throat of America. They repeated that move for days causing us to gasp for air as we experienced fear, spasms and financial palpitations.

To the speaker that has dishonored the oath he took to have allegiance to the republic for which it stands, I say shame on you. It is a shame that the parents of your childhood friends from your old neighborhood and the grandparents of those that work in your office or on your campaign may not be able to afford their medicine. It is a shame that our young men and women fighting for our freedom in Iraq and Afghanistan may not have been able to concentrate on their surroundings this past week because they were worried that their paychecks might not get mailed. Paychecks their loved ones back home needed to pay the mortgage or to buy baby food. It is a shame that your budget cuts may not provide the protective give they need to fight or endure the elements in future wars. It is a shame that education, Medicare, Social Security and other benefits may be cut so that you and your Wall Street friends and rich and famous friends can keep their 24k gold plated toilets, as the Greensburg and Johnson's across town can barely afford to pay their water bill so that they can flush theirs.

Does your debt ceiling give you any furlough days, does it decrease the personal trainers you have in your state-of-the art gym, does it put a freeze on your salary increases, and does it limit the amount of dollars you can spend to entertain or fly in private planes? As you cut the pension of police, fire, teachers and other professionals did you also decrease your own?

The so called freshmen of the tea party are a new breed of politicians. They are mutated politicians programmed with a one dimension agenda, to choke the freedom out of our constitution. They are concerned neither with pleasing their constituents or staying in good grace for the promise of bright political futures. The Republicans needed desperately to have feather in their cap and so they must boastfully and collectively take credit for this victory. I predict that they have sold their souls to the devil and the American people up the creek without a paddle. I imagine that the Republican Party as it once was moving forward will be only a shell of its former self.

I pray that what they have done to our economy will not divide our democratic house so completely that it falls from its financial foundation and crumbles. I pray that I am wrong of what the future holds. Okay Crybaby, when it times to cry when the fertilizer hits the fan, just "Don't Cry Out Loud" because we just won't be in the mood.
