A Shameless Tale: Re-writing History for the Ignorant, by the Ignorant

By RF Schatten You cannot re-write History to fit your believes...whatever horseshit you re-write only makes you look like a fool...you can't change actual events or the times back then. You just cannot change the reality of the past!...the rest of the world knows the truth. It's like living in Ignorance all your life because your parents decided to make the teaching of History, political. And then these are the same people who talk about how bad Education is in America! If education is bad, there's your reason! People hellbent to teach their children...and yours!...what 'they' want them to learn; in their own way, and in their own terms. It doesn't matter how ignorant your parents are...you've got to be just like them! Live a life without ever learning about the world outside of you or your family group. The ignorance is understood...but to hurt your own family? The ploy of Social Conservative America: Cut education, and privatize it...only for the pri...

The GOP running on empty...back to that Good Old Time Religion

By RF Schatten The Sociophobia of the Republican Party. When a group of Homophobes, Xenophobes, and Gynophobic males takes control of the Party...what do you expect is going to happen? They lost the Women, Latino, Gay, and Youth vote...they never had the Black vote. Every demographic sector...unless gerrymandered...is going Blue. They oppose every single election issue across the board...so what do they want for the American people? what do they stand for?...besides $$$? An Economy that's grown at a rate not seen since 2006, Unemployment levels lowest since 2008 when Bush was President, Wall Street hitting record numbers. On the Social side, Obamacare is becoming a success, the majority of the country favors: Gay Rights, Women Rights, and Voter Rights, Gun Control...and Marijuana has become a non-issue. And also, all Environmental issues...including Global Warming. There's not one issue in which the GOP agrees with the President, or the rest of the nation. So! when you...

Politicizing Birth...reaching the highest point of desperation

By RF Schatten Leave it to the New York Post...News Corps' successful attempt in converting a respected American Journalism institution since 1801, into a cheap tabloid...exploiting sensationalism and Yellow Journalism. It's been a long long time, since the glory days of the New York Evening Post...the days of Drew Pearson, Max Lerner, Pete Hamill, Earl Wilson, and Eric Sevareid...when Eleanor Roosevelt was a regular guest columnist. Today, The New York Post is owned by Rupert Murdoch. It's part of his ultimate world goal of controlling all you hear, read, and see...though England, may be a little hesitant now days...if you get my drift. Trashing a day old baby, it's not an intellectually correct thing to do...but who says Conservatives are that smart? look how the Party is self-imploding ...all it shows, is the Conservative hate mongering over a Family, a family's baby at that!. If a Kennedy would be in the Clinton's position, it would be the same. It...

Fighting Obamacare is Unhealthy for Republicans and other Living Things

By RF Schatten It's Maalox time for the GOP...again! Every time, more horrible news about the success of Obamacare, hits the news media...the sales of antacid around DC doubles...as House and Senate staffers, make a mad dash to the pharmacies. They just can't understand why Obamacare is getting so popular?...sad, but true...they prefer to live in a state of illusion, forever. Funny how the Republicans decided to call the Affordable Care Act; "Obamacare"...associating the ACA to the President...a way to disrespectfully demean the program. To the chagrin of the Grand Old Party and their Tea drinking cousins...Obama turned it around by saying; "Yes, Obama cares!"...and people have been listening, by the millions. They hate the success of the program, and the facts even more. The uninsured rates for the Hispanic community have taken a plunge, from 35% uninsured to 17%...thanks to "Obamacare"! The states who refuse to expand Medicaid remain virtu...

Paul Ryan cuts new promo for the Middle Class...new schtick, same old message

By RF Schatten Political Rules 101: If you can't sell the horseshit you spew...repackage yourself...appeal to the Middle Class; "Tax cuts for everybody!". Appeal to the poor by making token PR appearances at Food Banks and Shelters...hopefully, he's learned to work the Soup Kitchens at those shelters by now. He'll try to look more populist, care more for the problems of the common man...and will fail miserably because he's not the common man. At the end of the day, it's the same old sell schtick...and the same old horseshit. Does this costume change make Paul Ryan any different? Does anybody believe this man, suddenly is going to change all his radical ideas and plans? This is Paul Ryan...Ayn Rand disciple and Star Puppet for the Koch Brothers' Puppet Masters Show. Pauly is a very ambitious young man, he'll do whatever money can buy...David Koch and his brother Charley have the $$$...and Paul has the Koch's Carte Blanche! Paul Ryans agen...

The Republican Party: The transformation from respectability, to the Tea Party

By RF Schatten Agree or disagree...the GOP, at one point of their existence...were dignified and respected men and women in our society, who might be in disagreement with the opposition...but like civil adults, they believed in "political decorum"; an observance or requirement of polite society. 'Decorum' is not a word in the GOP/Tea Party's dictionary of batshit words and terms. What would America do without this 'clown show' on their screens, popping up every night? They 'are' the comedy relief we all need from going insane. The GOP welcomed these groups of characters with open arms...now it's their problem...it's hard finding a cure for the stupid. The Alumnus of this Freakshow includes such intellectual luminaries as Sharron Angle and Christine O'Donnell. You got the Akins, the Mourdocks, the Bucks, and the list goes on and on...and don't forget Palin, Bachmann, and Cruz...all 3 eligible on the 1st Ballot into the Tea Part...

The GOP turning to Socialized Medicine?...it's Election Season!

By RF Schatten The #1 rallying cry of the GOP: "Obamacare is Socialized Medicine!! Our Country will turn Socialist if we allow Obamacare to exist!!". The stark reality of an Election...when all myths are busted, when you can't change the numbers around anymore, and your argument has lost all its value...without a blink of an eye, embrace the program as if it was your idea all along. Hypocrisy? hey, it's politics! expect anything different? Well, well!...the way the GOP is suddenly embracing Obamacare, so much...all they're lacking is a Red Party Card. It's the GOP's way of kissing down to the petite bourgeois for votes, I suppose. The proletariat? they've heard the horseshit, many times before. And why do they need to embrace it...besides a few Red Governors being in deep serious re-election trouble? Estimated ACA QHPs as of 9/18/14: 8.14M PAID (9.37M Total) CURRENTLY Enrolled/Paying: 7.30M (as of 8/15/14 - Confirmed) Estimated Total, all so...

Conventional Wisdom on Same-Sex Marriage: Live with it!

By RF Schatten We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto...the world is rapidly changing...you got those who believe in the evolution of man, in progressing as human beings, seeking answers and finding ways to make this, a better world. The better it is, the more people accept it and decide to find ways to cohabitate with each other...and it doesn't matter what God you believe in...they all say the same thing; Peace on earth and goodwill to others. As Khalil Gibran said: "We are all sons of one religion, and it is the Spirit". Then you got those who would rather remain their entire lifetime, their minds, their entire progression of life...as a status quo. It's 2014!...but for them it's the 1950s, for some even longer. The one reality in life is: you can't turn the clock back! No matter how many laws are passed to stop the progress, our society has made...it will not stop the American people from achieving their goals! We've gone way beyond how to stop soc...

The GOP Women: Like a battered housewife...living in an illusion, or enjoying their degradation by the Grand Old Party

By RF Schatten A Political Party in desperate need of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The GOP insists that they don't have a "War on Women", yet they oppose every single Woman's issue around! Why not protect women rights? Why doesn't the GOP believe in equal rights for women...not just Equal Pay...but total equal rights? And then they come out with all the classic horseshit, on why they believe that it's in everyone's self-interest to control one's body. They are a shameless bunch of degenerate shriveled up old men...to them, women will never be equal. Naturally, that Legislation appears to be written by the Koch Industry Lobby...it's part of their personal philosophy...Mitch McConnell has openly admitted that the GOP is beholden to David and Charley. So why would it surprise anyone that the current GOP's platform, is a quick reminder of shades of the John Birch Society? Why would the GOP decide to openly oppose the women's Paycheck Fa...

Gynophobia, and the Republicans' Fear of an all Female Sweep

By RF Schatten It appears the GOP's bubble has burst on "Women"...a subject that gives Mitch McConnell nightmares...and just won't go away. A 73-25 Vote to break the initial Filibuster, looks pretty piss poor for bunch who pride themselves for being, Gynophobic...would've expected a larger fight from these old white male 'chauvinist pigs'. That sounds like the 60s and 70s...Margaret Chase Smith, Shirley Chisholm, Geraldine Ferraro, and in particularly, Bella Abzug and Betty Friedan, are all looking down with a big smile from heaven, and saying; "It's about time!" Could it be that 2014 might very well be, the 'Year of the Woman' in Politics?...and with the lack of women in the GOP that could cause louder sound-bytes, than Sarah and Michele...they will cowardly exit on 'that' subject almost right away, specially with such a short time for people to forget, what they really stand for. The names of Lundergan Grimes, Nunn, Dav...

The GOP's selling of America...it's all about the $$$

By RF Schatten "We have fallen heirs to the most glorious heritage a people ever received, and each one must do his part if we wish to show that the nation is worthy of its good fortune" ~~ Theodore Roosevelt Teddy Roosevelt believed in the Preservation of our natural lands and resources, habitats...the preservation of what God put on this earth, for us to cohabitate with. He also knew the dangers that man could acquire and ultimately use against their own nations; "The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life" He was a good prognosticator!...he also left the Republican Party, and was never proven wrong for it. Today, the Grand Old Party...under the facade of Tea Bags...are pushing their own agenda. The auctioning of Public Land, and the screwing of the Conservation Legacy of Teddy Roosevelt. They could care less about ou...

US Congress, and its resemblance with the House of Lords...no commoner there!

By RF Schatten The Rich get richer...while everyone else awaits for that trickle, to some day come down. 'That' trickle is what the GOP has been doing to this country, everyday...I call it pissing on your constituency! Darrell Issa, the wealthiest of them all, estimated at a net worth of nearly $357.3 million in 2013. In fact, the majority...268 of the 534 members of Congress...have a net worth of $1 million or more!! For the 1st time ever...millionaires hold a majority in Congress...the 1% Caucus! Do they care about those less fortunate? Issa is an Army Vet, and voted against the VA!...he doesn't need it, he has the best Insurance the Taxpayers can buy, for these slimeballs...plus his own! (think about it folks...we, the taxpayers pay for Federal Elected Officials' Salaries, Travel expenses, and Insurance Plans, which are considered "top of the line plans" ...but the average citizen has to pay a higher premium than Congressmen do...for a worse plan, or g...

The November 4th Battle: Apathy vs. Ignorance

By RF Schatten It's about time, the Democrats stop apologizing for all the GOP's "Callous Policies". Why should Debbie Wasserman Schultz be reprimanded for using a figure of speech to criticize Scott Walker? Walker is the most corrupt, dishonest Governor in the country, openly corrupt! often publicly bragging about it. This is the guy who sold his Governorship, and Wisconsin to the Koch Brothers...remember when he got punked by Ian Murphy? He never denied, what he said during the Phone Conversation...he was caught "Live" on the air!. Then you wonder why this scumball is in one Legal mess and scandal, after another. The fact that Wasserman Schultz likened Walker's leadership to domestic violence abuse? It was 'noted' that throughout the prank call, the "Governor maintained his appreciation for and their 'commitment' to civil discourse". Apologize? apologize??...when has the Republican Party ever apologized for the indecency ...

Like Father, like Son. You 'do' get an Education...about the Cruz Family

By RF Schatten Raphael Bienvenido Cruz, a "Guzano"...a Cuban who trash talks tough against his Government, but quietly crawls out of the country without notice. In Senior's case, this character was a Castro ally, who left Cuba at the age of 18, after supposedly fighting alongside Castro...at the age of 14. He left in 1957, so that puts him in 1953...at the Moncada Barracks Attack. History has recorded every person who was there...either killed or captured...a trial that lit the flames for the 26th of July Movement, and with Castro as an attorney...defended himself...his famous 4 Hour Closing Speech? "History will absolve me". 'That' folks, was the start of the 26th of July Cuban Revolution. Well? he's not dead, or served any prison time with Castro. Any Cuban who seriously keeps up with Cuban History, knows who served time with Fidel, Raul, Juan Almeida, and company...or just look it up in your local library. Daddy-O! you're not in it. Mi herm...

Ted Cruz: The Perfect Demagogue...no compassion, and your consummate Liar

By RF Schatten He's an American Political Aberration...if there's a bit of controversy, you'll find Ted Cruz lurking around, or almost certainly...in the center of it all. How can't you have a week pass without Ted Cruz getting into the media spotlights? He lives for controversies...the ultimate political publicity hound. When it comes to making friends and influencing people, Rafael Jr. needs to read the book. The psychobabble he spews to his fanatical flock of flunkies is classic demagoguery...you got to admire him for 'that'...he's the GOP's #1 star politico, when it comes to bashing opponents or causes. He also ranks among its biggest fools...often embarrassing himself, his Party, or both. From the man who brought you today's cheap version of Tail Gunner Joe, with his own witch hunts for Commies and Terrorists...they never amount to anything, but he gets his sound bytes and photo-ops. This character seriously wants to sell all of America...
