Texas Republican Hypocrites

Texas has a lot of Republican politicians, many of them hate anything that has to do with the federal government or our Presidents policies. Texas Governor Rick Perry is not shy about hating the federal government, he wants nothing to do with Obamacare even though the state has 28.8 uninsured Americans. Another bright Republican politician is Senator Ted Cruz, he thinks Texas deserves federal help when it comes to a plant explosion but when it comes to hurricane Sandy help its pork.

American Politics What Happened

This is one of the best video descriptions of what happened to our politics and why the Tea Party rose to its popularity.

America The Poor

Every congressmen should take a look at this video and that is including the President. Is this what America is going to be like in the future. The middle class is losing its foothold in America and if the goes the rich could kiss the profits they make goodbye.

GOP Rebranding

The Republicans have had a hard time reaching minorities in many states, they have been having trouble trying to make the party seem very inclusive to every race. But they have done damage to the credibility they used to have with Hispanics when George W. Bush used to be in office. Many Hispanics who are 40 years old and under have started to see a Republican party that is not supportive of them but demeans them. When you are called wetback, illegal alien, and other names even if you are a legal resident or citizen, by an elected official, it tends to affect your mind and your vote.

Westboro Baptist Church Attention

American media needs to stop paying attention to Westboro Baptist Church. By giving Westboro coverage its only feeding the agenda they live by. Hate is a powerful tool but it should not be publicized, many Americans don't want to see a so called christian denomination demonize individuals for being different. So lets stop giving this hate mongers a reason to picket and focus on the good and not the bad.

The Gun Lobby Won

Americans have let the gun lobby win by not standing up and fighting for those of us who have lost a loved one to a person who had access to a gun. So lets celebrate the gun lobby for their victory and for the senators who will do their bidding.

Cyber Security Advance Not Block As cyber security threats become more of a big issue in congress, some of the lawmakers who have no experience when it comes to technology are going to start passing bills that might have unintended purposes on innovation. Instead of creating new laws that might block innovation, invest in better technologies or hire hackers to fight fire with fire.

Boston First Responders The first responders to the Boston Marathon explosion were just amazing. When the bombs went off they were taking down the guardrails to help their fellow human beings. Acts like this make me proud to be an American, and whoever pulled this hideous and vicious attack, will answer to justice pretty soon.

Reforming Taxes As Americans are looking to file their taxes before the deadline, we have to wonder what we should do to make filing more easy and fast. The IRS is already getting with the times and making electronic filing more easier, but some third party companies who profit from average Americans filing their taxes at their place have two senators on their side, which doesn't surprise me. The two senators plan to block the IRS from developing its own software that competes with Turbotax, or other businesses that help Americans file.
