Honoring The People Who Lost Their Lives On 911

12 years ago today, America was viciously attacked by terrorist at the World Trade Center, Twin Towers in New York City, The Pentagon in Washington, DC, and aboard United Airlines Flight 93.

This attack caused over 3000 human beings to lose their lives.

I wish to honor the memory of all the people who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and my condolences to all of the survivors of those who lost their lives, who have to live with the painful reality every day, that they are gone and are never coming back.

Thank you, G.R.C.

Donate Now So We Can Fight Back. Please!

I watched the dangerous and destructive lies told last night by members of the Republican Party who have but one agenda: Write the First African American President out of history by any means necessary. These lies will be blasted across TV Screens everywhere because of the Racist Millionares and Billionares such as the Koch Brothers, Carl Rove, Donald Trump and Sheldon Adelson, who share this vision for America and are more than willing to write big checks to destroy Barack Obama's Presidency. Please don't let this happen-Donate now so we can fight back. Please! I just gave to Support President Obama's Agenda. To see details and contribute now please go to: Thank you, G.R.C.

Eloquent Lies

Just as I predicted-The second night of the RNC was the same as the first one, only with more bolder and daring lies. It took a lot for me to sit through an entire night of lies, racial slurs, and ignorance of well-known historical, personal and political facts, and other sometimes humorous factual exclusions. But none the less, I wanted to give them a chance to do something different and to speak to all of America, not just the 40% or so of the Racists, and a handful of House Slaves who have no memory of, or empathy for, how hard things really were when they were in the field. By the way, if you disagree with the Republican Administration’s agenda, you need to vote. 40% is just far too close to call, especially with the new Voter’s Rights Violations that they are imposing in certain states against College Students, Young People, Senior Citizens, African Americans and other Minorities; you know, everybody who voted for Senator Obama in 2008. They are trying to steal and buy the election. The theme of last night’s fiasco was “We can change it,” which I believe is them borrowing from the 2008 Obama Message of “Change”. However, because of their obsession with winning, (no matter the costs to this country and the majority of its citizens), they would not even acknowledge just one positive change, (of the many), that the Obama Administration has accomplished in its first term. Oh yea! And as far as that change thing goes, I don’t know how “Conservatives”, who are adamantly opposed to “Change”, can part their lips to imply that this is what they are all about. And as far as them calling themselves “Reformers”-How in the hell can you reform something by returning to what was a serious problem in the first place. What they need to call themselves is Re-Reformers: Return to Racism, Sexism, Hatred of the Poor, Hatred of Immigrants, (although they are all immigrants), themselves, and other such idiotic and hateful behavior. I don’t know about you, but I remember all of this backward thinking, and I know the damage that it caused to everyone who they view as “Other”. I experienced it with Ronald Reagan, who they use as a reference point and a beacon of light for the Republican Party, Ronald Reagan who was still a Racists, did manage to show us that he was human during his presidency. But these “New Idiots” are very dangerous for this country. And I lived through it with “Tricky Dick Nixon”, who sold James Brown a load of shit that led him to endorse him. And once he did that and lost much of his fan base, then Richard Nixon reneged on his promises to implement policies that would benefit the African American Community. This Separatism, Racism, Prejudice, Selfishness, Hatred and Propensity towards Half Truths and No Truths are traditional tactics for the Republican Party. And judging from the things that I have heard over the last 4 years has confirmed the fact that nothing has or will ever change with them. Please reelect President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, before or on November, 6, 2012. Thank you, G.R.C.

Just The Facts Man!

RYAN: Obama "created a bipartisan debt commission. They came back with an urgent report. He thanked them, sent them on their way and then did exactly nothing." THE FACTS: It's true that Obama hasn't heeded his commission's recommendations, but Ryan's not the best one to complain. He was a member of the commission and voted against its final report. RYAN: "And the biggest, coldest power play of all in Obamacare came at the expense of the elderly. ... So they just took it all away from Medicare. Seven hundred and sixteen billion dollars, funneled out of Medicare by President Obama." THE FACTS: Ryan's claim ignores the fact that Ryan himself incorporated the same cuts into budgets he steered through the House in the past two years as chairman of its Budget Committee, using the money for deficit reduction. The cuts, used in part to expand health insurance to more people, do not affect Medicare recipients directly but ultimately could by cutting into the profits of hospitals, health insurance plans and other service providers. Even so, the cuts are part of an overhaul that extends the solvency of Medicare's giant trust fund by eight years. RYAN: "The stimulus was a case of political patronage, corporate welfare and cronyism at their worst. You, the working men and women of this country, were cut out of the deal." THE FACTS: Ryan himself asked for stimulus money shortly after Congress approved the $800 billion plan, known as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Ryan's pleas to federal agencies included letters to Energy Secretary Steven Chu and Labor Secretary Hilda Solis seeking stimulus grant money for two Wisconsin energy conservation companies. One of them, the nonprofit Wisconsin Energy Conservation Corp., received $20.3 million from the Energy Department to help homes and businesses improve energy efficiency, according to federal records. That company, he said in his letter, would build "sustainable demand for green jobs." Another eventual recipient, the Energy Center of Wisconsin, received about $365,000. RYAN: Said Obama misled people in Ryan's hometown of Janesville, Wis., by making them think a General Motors plant there threatened with closure could be saved. "A lot of guys I went to high school with worked at that GM plant. Right there at that plant, candidate Obama said: `I believe that if our government is there to support you ... this plant will be here for another hundred years.' That's what he said in 2008. Well, as it turned out, that plant didn't last another year." THE FACTS: Although Obama did not explicitly promise to save the plant, Ryan is right that Obama implied that he had the backs of its workers when he spoke at the factory early in 2008 and issued a statement about its closure later. The plant halted production in December 2008, weeks before Obama took office and well before he enacted a more robust auto industry bailout that rescued GM and Chrysler and allowed the majority of their plants — though not the Janesville facility — to stay in operation. Ryan himself voted for an auto bailout under President George W. Bush that was designed to help GM, but he was a vocal critic of the one pushed through by Obama that has been widely credited with revitalizing both GM and Chrysler. If we as Democrats continue to allow them to get away with these lies, we deserve to lose.

Who Was speaking At The RNC Last Night?

If you could care less about all this information, please at least read the summary at the end. You will see that there is really no need to look for positive change at this convention or at the end of it. Their agenda is always the same: Keep people who are trying to have something in life from having it in any way they can; while continuing to celebrate and brag about what they have accomplished, while ignoring the government assistance that they used for themselves and their families to get where they are. The people who were speaking at the RNC last night are no different than the people who will speak tonight, tomorrow night, and for the rest of the life of the Republican Party, which I hope will be short lived. M Ludmya "Mia" Bourdeau Love (born 1975) is the mayor of Saratoga Springs, Utah, and the Republican Party 2012 nominee in Utah's 4th congressional district. She will face six-term incumbent Democratic Representative Jim Matheson for the seat in November 2012. See the ethnic name? Both of her parents immigrated from Haiti in 1973. You see, if these ethnic people would use an ethnic name, then they would be hated just as much as Barack Hussein Obama. Majority Leader John Boehner John Andrew Boehner is the 61st and current Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. A member of the Republican Party, he is the U.S. Representative from Ohio's 8th congressional district, serving since 1991 R Priebus was born Reinhold Reince Priebus in Kenosha, Wisconsin, the son of Dimitra and Roula Priebus, a former union electrician who works in real estate.[2][3] He is of German and Greek descent.[4] He became politically engaged at age 16, volunteering for several campaigns throughout high school.[5] After graduating from high school, he attended the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, where he majored in English and political science. He graduated cum laude in 1994, and prior to that had been elected to serve as student body president.[3] NC Chairman Reince Priebus New Jersey Governor Chris Christie Christopher James "Chris" Christie (born September 6, 1962) is the 55th and current Governor of New Jersey. Upon his election to the governorship in November 2009, Christie became the first Republican to win a statewide election in New Jersey in 12 years. Christie, an attorney, previously served as United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey and as a Morris County, New Jersey Freeholder. In 2011, he considered entering the race for the Republican Presidential nomination but ultimately decided not to run for the job. Christie delivered the keynote address at the 2012 Republican National Convention Senator, Rand Paul Randal Howard "Rand" Paul is the junior United States Senator for Kentucky. He is a member of the Republican Party. A member of the Tea Party movement, he describes himself as a "constitutional conservative" and a libertarian. During the primary he proclaimed his distaste for the Civil Right Legislation that allowed people of color to satisfy their human need for eating at any public restaurant that they choose. He believes that restaurant owners should not have to feed anyone that they do not want to feed. Gov. Nikki Haley Nimrata Nikki Randhawa Haley (born January 20, 1972), an American politician, is the 116th and current Governor of South Carolina. A member of the Republican Party, Haley represented Lexington County in the South Carolina House of Representatives from 2005 to 2010. In the 2010 South Carolina gubernatorial election, Haley was endorsed for the Republican nomination by former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, and the Tea Party movement. "with all due respect, (President Obama) don't tell me that my parents didn't build their business." Just as scripted. A quote taken out of context from an election speech by President Obama has become one of Romney campaign's leading rallying cries: "We built it."Obama's original point was that those who have built successful businesses did so with the infrastructure – such as roads - created by the government. But the portion from the speech that said they didn't do it on their own is being used by the Republicans to fire up their base. "We built it," said a large sign on a canvass fence around the convention floor. See her name? Nimrata Nikki Randhawa Haley It’s Indian, but Ethnic Republicans who have Ethnic Names don’t use their names because they do not sound “White American” enough. So they just call her Nikki. Cathy McMorris Rodgers Cathy McMorris Rodgers was born in Salem, Oregon on May 22, 1969 and raised on a farm. She worked in the family owned and operated business, the Peachcrest Fruit Basket Orchard and Fruit Stand, in Kettle Falls, Washington for 13 years.[6] She is the descendant of pioneers who traveled the Oregon Trail in the early 1850s to the Pacific Northwest where her father's family pursued agriculture and her mother's family worked in the forestry industry. Voted YES on $192B additional anti-recession stimulus spending. (Jul 2009) Voted NO on modifying bankruptcy rules to avoid mortgage foreclosures. (Mar 2009) Voted NO on additional $825 billion for economic recovery package. (Jan 2009) Voted NO on monitoring TARP funds to ensure more mortgage relief.

(Jul 2010) Limit federal spending growth to per-capita inflation rate. (Jul 2010) Rep. Artur Davis Artur Genestre Davis (born October 9, 1967) is an American politician and attorney who changed his party affiliation from the Democratic to the Republican Party in 2012. Davis served in the United States House of Representatives representing Alabama's 7th congressional district from 2003 to 2011. He was also a candidate for governor of Alabama in the 2010 Democratic Gubernatorial Primary. In 2009 and 2010 Davis voted against the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the only member of the Congressional Black Caucus to do so. US Senate candidate Ted Cruz Rafael Edward "Ted" Cruz (born December 22, 1970) is an American politician who was Solicitor General of the U.S. state of Texas from 2003 to May 2008. Cruz was appointed by Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott. He was the first Hispanic Solicitor General in Texas, the youngest Solicitor General in the United States, and had the longest tenure in the post thus far in Texas history. He is currently a partner at the law firm Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, where he leads the firm’s U.S. Supreme Court and national appellate litigation practice.[1] Cruz won the 2012 Republican nomination for the United States Senate seat being vacated by Kay Bailey Hutchison.[2] He defeated Lt. Governor David Dewhurst in the Republican primary runoff by 57% to 43% on July 31, 2012. Mr. Cruz certainly had the full force of the tea party movement supporting him with cash, social media, and people power. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum campaigned for him. Ann Lois Romney Ann Lois Romney (née Davies; born April 16, 1949) is the wife of American businessman and politician Mitt Romney, who is the Republican nominee in the 2012 U.S. presidential election. From 2003 to 2007 she was First Lady of Massachusetts while her husband served as governor of the state. She was raised in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, and attended the private Kingswood School there, where she dated Mitt Romney. She converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1966. She attended Brigham Young University (BYU), married Mitt Romney, and in 1975 she received a Bachelor of Arts degree in French. Listen, I am glad that Ann loves her husband and her children and that Mitt loves them and his Mama. I have it on good authority that Michelle Obama loves her husband and children as well, and I truly believe that they both love their mothers and that the Obama Girls love their parents. That’s all well and good. However, last night it seemed as if the speakers were all just blowing smoke, stoking anger and partisanship and lying about, and criticizing the legitimate Executive Decisions that President Obama has had to make under some very difficult and challenging circumstances, including the intentional failure of them, (The Republicans), to work with him to save this country from ruin, due to their obsessive racial hatred towards this man. Believe me! This is not what we need to solve our problems. And if the true meaning of “Conservative” prevails, we are in for a lot more of the same for the rest of the week. And at the end of this convention, what we will still be left with is: People still just blowing smoke, stoking anger and partisanship and lying about, and criticizing the Legitimate Executive Decisions that President Obama has had to make under some very difficult and challenging circumstances, including the intentional failure of them, (The Republicans), to work with him to save this country from ruin, due to their obsessive racial hatred towards this man.
