Americans Bend Over on Election Day

On election day 2014 Americans collectively bent over and told the robber barons to have their way for at least the next 2 years.  Already the war drums are beating to send American troops back to war, proving the final message of former president Dwight Eisenhower correct. Republicans have also vowed to put America in the group to hear " You are not welcome here" on judgment day by refusing to help Jesus when he is sick, hungry, or homeless (when the Me party members chanted "let him die" during the last presidential primary, the guy in the emergency room with no insurance was Jesus)  Despite the fact that every financial recession or depression suffered by Americans has been the direct result of economic policy of Republicans or their antecedents, Republicans have been put into a position to seriously threaten the economic recovery that has happened in America, despite their best efforts so far to lead us into a "character building" depression.  Please note that all of these depressions and recessions engineered by Republicans, predominantly by allowing wide spread short selling, have resulted in stock traders getting very wealthy, while working people and many wealthy people who have earned their wealth have suffered.

As a Floridian I am dismayed that we have again elected to the office of Governor a man who is either the biggest thief in the history of America or an astonishingly incompetent CEO.  He ran a corporation that very deliberately stole over a billion dollars from the people of America. If he was not aware of the systematic keepings of dual books he would have had to be totally out of touch with his company.  For this he received a reported bonus of $350,000,000. Yes, folks, that's three hundred and fifty MILLION dollars.
