My Profile in Courage

Yet again, our president cannot catch a break.  Yet again, the Confederate sympathizers with their Confederate flags take great glee in pounding the president because they have had NOTHING for which to excoriate him that gained credence and worse they were responsible for a government shutdown that cost 24 BILLION, yes with a "B," bucks!  These microscopes of our national debt just rang up the tally of that debt 24 billion bucks more and caused mountains of difficulty for the families they put out of work.  Moreover, they sent shock waves into their once favorite son Wall Street. 

Now, Republicons could not be happier because a web site -- let me say that again A WEBSITE -- had glitches.  Does anyone who has worked on a computer and with web sites not understand that stuff happens ALL the time?  Is it frustrating?  Yes.  Do the fixes eventually solve the problem? Yes.  Are the problems eventually forgotten by most of us who have been angered?  YES. The glitches, from small to consequential in the roll out of health care can and WILL be solved.  This is a big country and healthcare is a big program.  As night follows day errors will naturally occur.  ALL federal programs of large magnitude historically have had problems but who hears of them now?  Few do. Errors WILL inevitably happen especially in Internet technologies.  To err is human and to forgive is divine but there is nothing divine about the Republican Party.

I love the president.  He will make it right. Why? BECAUSE HE SAID SO. The man has the patience of Job in the face of such brutal, mean, cruel and often racist hatred of a Tea Bag Republican Party that loses its breath every time they see a family of color walk up the White House steps.  If the president said the sun will be out tomorrow the Republicons would say they want rain.  Remember, Republicons are dedicated to this president's fall and dedicated to retaining their House seats in 2014.  DO NOT LET THEM. 

The Republicon Party is the party of patriots doncha know who wanted to "shut the place down."  I thought patriots wanted their government and their country to work.  Republicans will lose their latest effort to make the president fail as they have lost every other faux criticism of a president who is smarter MUCH smarter than they.  They know it and they fear it.  Yes, there is plenty for them to fear.  They are a Party whose death knell is ringing as the country of formerly majority white is now losing that majority and is diverse. Republicans, keep ratcheting up all those false issues and you and your Party of white will surely lose.

My heart goes out to the President but more than that I trust him to be the force behind the efforts to get the health care roll out right and he will. Those who love you, Mr. President, have your back and I am one of them.  He is a truly a great man and my profile in courage!

P.S. TRIED TO GET ONTO THE ACA WEB PAGE AND IT WAS LIGHTENING FAST.  SABOTAGE BY REPUBLICONS IN RED STATES?  WHO WOULD BE SURPRISED?  NOT ME!

YET ANOTHER REASON THE REPUBLICON PARTY MUST MEET ITS WATERLOO THEY SAID WAS RESERVED FOR THE PRESIDENT.  IT WASN'T IT WAS RESERVED FOR THEM. ADVANCE THE DEMOCRATIC VOTE NATIONALLY, STATEWIDE AND FOR LOCAL OFFICE.

Democratic Presidential Convention--On to November

  I watched the Democratic convention last evening until my body's demand for sleep overtook me around midnight.  Having followed thin...
