Republican Tea Party Contract ON America
 

How refreshing to see an effort to actually hold Republicans accountable for their nasty, selfish attitudes toward fellow citizens. The Democrats have an answer to the Republicans' effort to craft a new "Contract With America".

Behold, the Republican Tea Party Contract ON America, where Democrats are prepared to remind the country of what Republicans have been up to this year.

Contract high points include:

1) Repeal the Affordable Care Act (Health Insurance Reform) - Put insurance companies back in charge, repeal tax credits for small businesses, allow insurance companies to deny coverage based on preexisting conditions and to drop coverage when a person gets too sick and make prescription drugs for seniors less affordable.

2) Privatize Social Security or phase it out altogether - Turn the guaranteed retirement benefits of America's seniors over to Wall Street CEOs by putting Social Security at risk in the stock market or, as some Republicans have called for, phase out Social Security altogether and end a program millions of American seniors rely on for their survival.

3) End Medicare as it presently exists - Phase out and end Medicare as it presently exists for future generations of seniors, ending Medicare's guaranteed healthcare benefits for more than 40 million American seniors, and replace it with a voucher system which will result in higher premiums and fewer services for seniors.

4) Extend the Bush tax breaks for the wealthy and big oil - At a cost of nearly $700 billion, extend the Bush tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans and big oil, which are set to expire and which have and will continue to explode the federal budget deficit.

5) Repeal Wall Street Reform - Roll back the toughest consumer protections ever enacted, allow banks to continue to grow too big to fail, and ensure that predatory lenders continue to utilize their most abusive practices.

6) Protect those responsible for the oil spill and future environmental catastrophes - Cap liabilities for those responsible for environmental disasters like the Gulf oil spill and let companies like BP decide which victims deserve compensation for the disaster and what the timeline for relief should be.

7) Abolish the Department of Education - Put the big banks back in charge of student loans and put an end to federal assistance for public schools.

8) Abolish the Department of Energy - End America's investments in a clean-energy future and disband the organization responsible for oversight of nuclear materials.

9) Abolish the Environmental Protection Agency - Gut the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act, which together protect our kids from air pollution and keep drinking water safe, and disband the watchdog that holds polluters accountable.

10) Repeal the 17th Amendment - Take away your right to pick your U.S. Senator

That's what they've promised. Not just a walk back to the Bush years, a walk back to another century. Perhaps they could repeal the Emancipation Proclamation, too.

Kinda funny they post this the day before they come out with it.

Sounds exactly like the Libertarian party to me.

They wont mention any of that until after the election though. If republicans win back the senate and house, the very same evening they will announce all kinds of crazy shit that would have lost them the elections if they said it too loudly. Betcha a quarter.

I bet John McCain regrets bringing that bitch to the forefront :2 cents:

Yep, Ron Paul would be proud.

Interesting that the Democrats are deciding what's in it, and what the implications are before it is even put out.


OH wait, they are pretty good at telling us what is in things that they haven't actually read yet.... I forgot.



.

You're right. Why dont they just list the things that the republican leaders have publically declared that they will do if they win back.

1)

it must burn bad.

Yeah that right, they tried this before and look what happened in 1994

On the first day of their majority in the House, the Republicans promised to pass eight major reforms:

1.require all laws that apply to the rest of the country also apply to Congress;
2.select a major, independent auditing firm to conduct a comprehensive audit of Congress for waste, fraud or abuse;
3.cut the number of House committees, and cut committee staff by one-third;
4.limit the terms of all committee chairs;
5.ban the casting of proxy votes in committee;
6.require committee meetings to be open to the public;
7.require a three-fifths majority vote to pass a tax increase;
8.guarantee an honest accounting of the Federal Budget by implementing zero base-line budgeting.




So tell me, why are people afraid of the new one?

I'm hoping they extend the capital gains tax cut or better yet make them permanent. Democrat, Republican or whomever is in charge. If the tax cut expires I think it will be hurt the stock market.

Because Progressive/Liberals arent smart enough to understand it.

and how many of those happened?

why you defend these idiots is beyond me... :2 cents:



.

that door swings both ways...

your posts show me that even smart people get caught up in the choosing sides bullshit...

i hope you get your wish soon, so you can all realize the grass is not going to be any greener...

Hey Vendzilla and Gouge,

Please explain the GOP's new plan to fix America. Misdirection and snide remarks aside, please tell us what the big GOP/Tea Party plan is, that is so fucking great.

President Obama had to APPOINT Elizabeth Warren (and dozens of others) because Republicans are currently holding up literally HUNDREDS of nominees from the president for various positions.

But they'll run on washington being "broken" as if it's one mans fault, and for some reason since its that one mans fault who is not running for anything this year, they'll want you to vote for the same fuckers who trashed this dump.

Wake up!

What's ironic is that BFT3K never holds the democratic party accountable for anything, he just blames the Republicans. Gotta love the morons, or "sheeple".:1orglaugh

One man's fault? You mean like always blaming Bush for Obama's fuckups. You morons don't even pretend to be objective. :1orglaugh

Pretty fucking stupid to ask about the new contract a day before it comes out.....

The funny thing is, the Democrats have no plan on fixing the economy so they keep on fucking up. But god forbid BFT3K actually focuses on facts and reality instead of misdirection:)

Maybe you should do the waking up
I guess you forgot how Barry by passed the whole vetting process by appointing Donald Berwick to head medicare and medicaid during a recess? There is a process that Obama thought he was above!

I pose questions that you cannot answer, so you resort to name calling and misdirection.

Your retorts are so fucking lame and predictable!

I pose questions that you can't answer, so you resort to repeating everything I just said about namecalling and misdirection? That's why I love arguing with lowlifes who possess half my IQ.:1orglaugh

Do you start drinking as soon as you wake up?

You are so filled with (drunken) hatred, that your tunnel vision excludes rational thought.

Go back up the page a bit, and start answering questions, instead of hurling insults and fox noise talking points.

well, you certainly went to the right website for your "facts" :1orglaugh

Again, no answers whatsoever - just more childish nonsense.

If someone were to review all of your postings on GFY they would come to the conclusion that you truly have NOTHING to offer but hatred and nonsense.

Another GFY genius brings nothing to the table. :thumbsup

ROFLROFOFL

It's amazing how BFT3K symbolizes the typical every day, moronic liberal. There's no need for him to use facts. When someone makes an argument that he can't refute, he'll quickly point to emotional keywords such as "hatred", "bigot", "racist", and "brainwashed". The guy is too stupid to think for himself, so he assumes that everyone who makes him look stupid (most people), MUST be racist bigots who regurgitate fox news. What a moron rofl.

If someone were to review your postings, they'd come to the conclusion that you're a stupid human being who spends his time making a fool out of himself on a porn forum.:1orglaugh


You forgot the word "who" in there but then again, you have trouble forming coherent sentences. I feel bad for you. :) :) :)

Notice, .... nothing?

That is always what the answer is to that question.

So I take it you're ok with that then?

Why not answer my question as to why you want answers on a new contract that's not out yet and no one knows for sure whats on it?

I know, you blame Bush

You explain what choice is left when the ENTIRE republican't party says no to everything and stalls everything? What? Just wait until he's out of office for them to proceed? Come on.

Funny how the demon jumps into every thread I start, and then complains about how my views are insignificant.

Thanks for the all the bumps, chump!

This is purposeful misdirection from the the fact that 99% of the Democrats' decisions have hurt the economy, so I'd rather have someone put a stop to all of it than let it continue. Don't worry though, many of these problems will be solved come November.:1orglaugh

Please explain the GOP's new plan to fix America.

Funny how BFT3K needs to make shit up when he's getting his ass handed to him. Keep trying big boy.:1orglaugh
