Oh, GOP ...



"In recent days, there have been misguided criticisms of this plan that echo the failed theories that helped lead us into this crisis -- the notion that tax cuts alone will solve all our problems; that we can meet our enormous tests with half-steps and piecemeal measures; that we can ignore fundamental challenges such as energy independence and the high cost of health care and still expect our economy and our country to thrive.

I reject these theories, and so did the American people when they went to the polls in November and voted resoundingly for change. They know that we have tried it those ways for too long .... we have a choice to make. We can once again let Washington's bad habits stand in the way of progress. Or we can pull together and say that in America, our destiny isn't written for us but by us. We can place good ideas ahead of old ideological battles, and a sense of purpose above the same narrow partisanship."

- US President Barrack Obama, February 5th, 2009.


America's Right - you GOP - can't you see, there's more to life than preserving the 'unholy thee'? Avarice, greed, they are passe. Stop trying to relive yesterday.

Again we find you peddling the culture of "me" - with no concern for the average "we". Time and circumstance have passed you by - shouldn't you now stop trying to make flawed logic fly.

Can't you not make more of this chance by the one who is reaching out to you. Can't you make peace with your broken past - and try to start anew?

Yes this man is threatening the status-quo. But with good reason - he's seen your show. He sees how your ideology did lay waste to that 'American Dream' most will now never taste.

You had your run dealing in fear and hate - is it not time for your self-fish protestations to abate?

By clinging to division and the ways of the past your jeopardizing, again, that you have sworn to vouchsafe. The future.

Oh, America's Right, you GOP, it's time for something true.

After all, this life can't always be ... just about you!
