To Sarah Palin and other extreme right wingers I have something to say about their refusal to offer any realistic and worthwhile Health Care reform but instead offer Tax breaks. TAX BREAKS DO NOT PAY BILLS!!!! Is there some reason you rich right wingers don't understand that? Some of us have bills to pay, have not held political office and padded our pockets while in office and we have families to raise and real work to go to every day. We cannot pay a hospital bill with what we have and the fact we may get a tax break does not hold forth much promise as it does not impact the crises of immediacy that medical bills present. So here it is, TAKE YOUR TAX BREAKS AND SHOVE THEM.
Oh and by the way, doesn't a tax break decrease tax revenue and thus increase the national debt also? I thought you right wing idiots were concerned about that. Why you increased the national debt times 3 while you held office for 8 years. Yes and that $1200 check came in so handy too. Frankly as a Christian, I would gladly have let you keep that money and instead give it to all the uninsured children of this country. But no, you want to give it to us to win votes. Well that worked out real well for you didn't it.
Give it up for God's sake. You lost the election yet here we go again on your right wing affiliate, Fox News, this morning you start showing Jeremiah Wright again and film him saying that the racist right wing only objects to Health Care reform because poor people will be taken care of. Who cares what Jeremiah Wright says but are there shades of truth behind his statement? Are many of the extreme right wing racists? I don't know but it is no more ridiculous than Sarah "Appalling" Palin's "Death Panel" statements.
You permit 2 Republican Presidents speak to our children on TV in their classrooms and then turn around and stomp on the dignity of the office of President and tell us Obama is not fit to speak to our children. Censorship in any form is wrong and lying about as the school board here in my home town did, compounds the wrong. Pat Raynor, the Public Information official for the school board tells us that due to technical difficulties and a full academic schedule they could not fit the speech into the school day. THAT WAS A BOLD FACED LIE!! I know for a fact (this was verified and witnessed in all 3 counties during the actual speech on a Smart Board in classrooms) that the streaming video of the speech could have been broadcast without any difficulty at all. All each teacher had to do was to pull the speech up on their computer and transfer it to the Smart Board. As to scheduling, that is a total ridiculous excuse that Pat Raynor should be ashamed of offering to the public. Schedules can be changed and are when events arise during a school year. The truth is that Joe Pye, the school board and the Republican Party in Dorchester County conspired to announce these excuses at 4 p.m. on a Friday before a holiday weekend, knowing full well that this would prevent any organization of protest to either the school board or county government because their offices were closed until Tuesday, the day of the President's speech.
Here is the deal Dorchester County Republican Party and Joe Pye. Stand up like grown men and women and just tell me outright, "We do not care if Democrats won the Presidency, the majority in the House and the Senate. We do not care if what we are doing is morally repugnant and reveals us as moral hypocrites. We are going to prevent any children from hearing anything from the elected President because he is from the opposing Party whether it is right or wrong. Although some have called (less than 1% of the total parental population in District II) we are going to listen to their politically motivated calls and not allow our children to have the honor of listening to their President on TV, speaking directly to them." Now if you would say that, I would give you the respect that I would give anyone of differing opinion from me but you did not do that. You lied and lied repeatedly. That deserves no respect and indeed Joe Pye in allowing these lies should resign forthwith.
Joe Pye, whom I admired as my children's first Principal at their first school has now become a political pawn and has chosen to be an accomplice to a LIE generated by the political powers that be in Dorchester County. Joe, you have betrayed the trust that the parents of this county place in you. You are not the honest and upright man many of us remember when yo were a Principal. You have strayed from the mission of what is best for the education of our children to becoming a pawn of politics. Harry Truman coined the phrase, "the buck stops here" and Joe it stopped on your desk and when you faced a decision instead of telling the truth, you lied. You should turn in your resignation now. I am not talking about politics Joe, I am talking about being able to trust the man in charge of my children's education and that man lied.
