Bring Ohio Home - A major shift in policy in Washington  


Bring Ohio Home
"The essence of civilization is that the strong have a duty to protect the weak."


— George W. Bush, March 31, 2005

And with that quote, so changes the priorities in our Federal Government. Here is what I expect to happen:
  • A roll back of tax cuts for the wealthy
  • Universal healthcare
  • A rapid pull out of our troops in the middle east, to be replaced with strong and effective diplomacy.
  • Education reforms will be fully funded.
  • Voting will become easy, accessible, verifable and trusted.
  • Social Security will not be looted by the securities industry and will remain a strong safety net for the elderly and disabled.
  • Gays and Lesbians will be treated with dignity and respect in our country.
  • Regressive taxation will be reformed so that taxes will not fall disproportionatly on the poor
  • Government be at least as interested in the success of small businesses as they are interested in the success of big businesses.
A new day is dawning in America. I'm just glad to be alive to see it.
Should I be laughing now, or should I be crying? Or early April Fool's joke? I see that Shrub is also quoted here, so I guess it's not an April Fool's joke. It's just a Fool. No April even.
