Mouthing off

Mouthing off: Again, sorry for the lapse! The twitting is taking over my life! I think I'm up to about 430 followers - occasionallly you lose a couple - what I think happens is once in a while you get a conservative following you. You get an e-mail that tells you who is following you (which means everytime you tweet, it shows up where they are) and you can check them out and every so often it comes up that someone is following me who is "conservative, anti-Obama, " whatever, so I do not follow them. Now, what's happening!
Last weekend Sarah Palin gave a teabagger speech in Madison, WI of all places! The crowd was ENORMOUS!!!! BUT, not for her! There were quite a few less teabaggers there
(Bill Maher said he would stop callling them teabaggers when they stopped saying Obamacare!) than WI protesters against Republicans, especially Palin who was saying beautiful things about Walker! That's not the place to do it! Evidently, they were booing so loudly (I have seen films on UTube) that she had to screech (that's her nickname, by the way!) In fact, one of the newsmen, while reporting, said he was standing a few feet from her and couldn't hear her! Also, it was snowing! I can't remember if it was Sat. or Sun. but Sat. here, it was 98 deg. in Tarzana! It was so hot in the house that I couldn't imagine it had gotten so hot out but it did. Hot again on Sunday and Mon. it dropped in the 60's. Normally it doesn't jump around like that out here. Well, back to Wisconsin. As I said, it was not a place for her to be. She made $100,000 for that "speech". Can you believe that? I just don't understand it! They fawn over her - you can see the people behind her with adoration in their eyes! I spotted her for a phoney almost the minute she stepped out on that stage during the Republican convention! I would think men would be taken w/her but that women can see thru other women! Guess not!
Well, I believe 4 recalls petitions have been put in. They are getting well above the amount of sigs they need which is amazing! The Republicans started a petition for Lena Taylor, Democratic Sen. in the Milwaukee district, I believe. They got 2 signatures (that many?) and gave up! Now, I think that is funny! I cannot believe that Gov. Walker has a future in Wisconsin!
BTW, Prosser, I believe, gave an acceptance speech and told them to stop the foolishness of checking the ballots from Waukesha. Well, I tell you, there is a terrible smell out here and it is coming from Waukesha, Wisconsin! Something is very fishy there and I cannot and will not believe that whatever happened was legitimate! It is very stranges that it took her over a day to "remember" that she didn't put 14,000 votes thru! No, I refuse to believe it! I tweet w/a lot of Wisconsinites and they are amazing! Every Red state should take a lesson from them!
Now, on to the next red state: Michigan. Unbelievable what is going on there! Rick Snyder, Gov. (another bastard like Walker, but perhaps even worse!) had a put in a law (how this is legal is beyond me!) that if a town was having financial difficulties, he could replace someone and put in his own man, just anyone he wanted, whether they had experience or not or whatever! Well, last Friday (I believe it was Fri.) he fired the whole town of Benton Harbor. All the elected officials, that is! Can you believe something like that? I remember Benton Harbor, in fact, we spent a weekend there for our 1st anniversary, that was 52 yrs ago! It was, I believe if I remember correctly, a resort town. Now it is a poor town, changed like everything else. But I heard something yesterday that there are plans to develop it for rich people, something like that. There is always a deeper meaning for these things that these corrupt politicians do. I will follow up on that.
Ohio- Kasich, another bastard, you can look at these guys and they actually look mean. His "2nd in command" was yelling about the former governor (this was probably during the campaigning) mis-using the state airplane. Well, Kasich now has spent more $$$ using this plane in his 1st 3 1/2 mos. than the previous governor used in 13 mos.! Kasich has been going from city to city, some like a 3 hr drive away. But he flies! Now, no one would care except for the fact, he is firing left and right and cutting everything in sight to "save money" but not when it comes to his comfort.
Now, the Obama administration has formed a group they call the Gang of Six - 3 Republicans and 3 Democrats. The Democrats are Dick Durbin (IL) and Mark Warner - don't know where he is from and I forgot the 3rd. Doesn't matter. But people are very upset w/Durbin & Warner. The Gang of Six is there to go over the "entitlements" - Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid. This is making me ill. And it seems like Durbin & Warner are leaning over to the "right" and seem to think they are Republicans! I haven't been following it too much and maybe I should. So I could get a little more aggravated. Now, Social Security had 2.6 trillion dollars in it.But, evidently, right now it is filled w/IOU's! Well, they needed the $$$ for the wars, etc. Not that it won't be paid back, if we can't trust our government who can we trust. So, with this Gang of Six (what a name!) who knows .
Now, Obama's rating has gone down, I don't know why, and it also has gone down w/Hispanics, I don't know why that, either. But, not to worry! I think that every senior and their families, in fact everyone, should be made aware of the fact that should we get a Republican president in 2012, and the Senate turns Republican, that sure as shootin' we will have no more Medicare, Social Security or Medicaid! And - if the rich taxes haven't gone up as Obama said they would, they will go down, down, down, under a Republican regime. You can mark my words on that!!!!
One more thing - Donald Chump, er, I mean Trump! He is sort of planning to run for President. He doesn't say yes or no. He is too involved in running his mouth every day on every possible talk show, that Obama was not born in this country. Yesterday, Bill Price (Or Press, I am never sure of his name) used to have a show w/Buchanan, was on w/him yesterday and Bill said - Ok, 49 yrs ago a woman had a baby in Kenya, and an hr after he was born, she thought that maybe he would grow up to become president of the USA, so maybe she should put a birth notice in 2 American newspapers so she put 2 notices in the Honolulu papers! It was funny! So Buchanan said why doesn't he say something, show the birth certificates, etc. and Price (or Press!) said he's got more important things to do, jobs, wars, economy, etc. And he's right! But Lawrence O'Donnell says that on May 16 when NBC announces the shows that are going to be renewed for next yr and they will renew Trump's show, that will be the end of the "birthers" for Trump! He makes a ton of money from that show (God only knows why) and he needs and wants the money. Someone saw a bumper sticker that said Trump/Palin 2012 - You're fired/I quit! Quite funny!
Well, I'm sure that there is more, but as I said last time, it will have to wait!!!!!!
