The Republican Party continues to scare the American public

It is a sad to see how the Republican Party is continuing to scare the American public over and over again with their false and unsubstantiated rhetoric. Listening to Carl Rove and Rush Limbaugh on ABC This Week with Jorge Stephanopoulos, I heard the same old rhetoric based on their failed ideology that giving money to the rich will solve the problems of our economy when it has failed in the past and has brought us into this current economical crisis. Why does Carl Rove, the former President Bush's chief political strategist Karl Rove, still defends the Bush administration's handling of Hurricane Katrina? We all know what happened during Hurricane Katrina! The Bush administration failed to act because they were unwilling to spend money on a state that is one of the poorest state in the United States with a large portion of none-white population.Just think about this! Spending money in Iraq was more important that spending money in the United States?

The only thing the Republican Party is doing right now is obstructing progress by hanging on to their old philosophies and by calling governmental intervention socialistic measures. I don’t think that the Democratic Party is or has ever tried to be or become a socialistic party but the Republican Party is continuously insinuating this. The only thing, however, the new government and the Democratic Party is aiming for, which could be seen as socialistic, is to increase equity and fairness again. Helping everybody to survive in this economy instead of supporting only the wealthiest of this world, is not socialistic, or is it?

We had eight years of scar-tactics under the Bush administration! It’s time to move beyond such rhetoric and return to a society that is treated with fairness and honesty!
