As Economists Predicted, We are Still Paying for Bush....think about that next time you're considering Mittens

Not surprisingly, our country is still suffering from what the republicans inflicted upon us during the Bush presidency.  The tax cuts to the rich still exist, along with the loopholes that you can only truly take advantage of if you already have a ton of money(capital gains, assorted write-offs.)  And people still fault Obama for what he has or hasn't done.

It's to sit back for a moment and ponder what might have been.  McCain and Palin(shudder) have won.  Already the most free market in the world, is going to become a whole lot freer.  M&P will have to step up to our enemies, because they promised they would.  Escalations in Iraq and Afghanistan would be a given.  Iran would most likely be bombed to cinders.  The rest of the world's hatred would grow exponentially.  If you've forgotten, during much of Bush's presidency, American students tooling around Europe would put a Canadian flag on their backpacks.  This really happened.  Have we already forgotten how much we were hated then?  

And since a large portion of our country seemingly has its head up its ass, they don't see what the foreign press or governments think of a Romney presidency.  Even they know it would be disastrous for the world and our country.  Spend some time reading foreign press.  Then you may understand what is really going on.  Our big stick method of diplomacy.  Our woefully shortsighted congress and senate.  Banks running the country.  They can all see it.  Perhaps it's too close to our eyes, and everything is fuzzy.

We are laughed at by the rest of the world for failing to invest in renewable energy (including China.)  We are considered incredibly poor world citizens for the way we treat our environment, and all of our natural resources.  Is this the country you wanted when you were growing up?

It's time to act.  Re-electing Obama, while the right next step, undoubtedly will not be enough.  The banks and the super rich need their world shaken up.  And if our elected officials won't do it, pretty soon this country will have to make a decision if they're going to do it themselves.
