A good rant...

GOP: Greedheads Opponents and Piss Ants
The right wing misanthropes who have been mewling and puking about the stock market need to be taught a lesson, or two.
Obama didn’t break it, but he is working on fixing it.

The wingnuts who cheered when Dubya spent billions on a fraudulent war in Iraq now suddenly just can’t stand the thought of tax dollars going for schools and bridges and highways and medical research… and for pete’s sake.. JOBS???

Their lack of support for education makes sense. The stupider Americans are, the more likely they’ll fall for the same line of bull that has been handed out by malevolent GOP schemers ever since the Gipper entered center stage.

To review a few of the gigantic screw-ups which brought us to our current state of recession:

Repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, the law which kept banks on the straight and narrow? Obama had nothing to do with that.

Cutting the budget of the Securities and Exchange Commission even as financial markets became more and more complex? Obama had nothing to do with that.

Taking huge dollars from lobbyists while gutting the federal financial regulatory system?
Nope, wasn’t Obama.
It was Republicans, mostly.
Now Obama and his team are working to fix the mess. Republicans, what’s left of them, are howling and yowling like castrated cats in a clothes dryer. Spin ‘em some more.
Most likely, he will fix it. But first, Republicans, bend over… this just might hurt a little…
