About Me

Happily married middle-aged mid-western progressive Democrat living in a very conservative part of the country. My political frustrations lead me to write about politics and life.

Shameless

The GOP’s rhetoric can’t be matched by the Democrats because they are, well…truthful.  Only in GOP la-la-land can up be down, and false mean true.  They have rolled out a budget plan that will do the following:

  •  Eliminate Medicare and put seniors into the private health insurance market where, with preexisting conditions and a coupon for partial, and ever reducing, premium payments look for affordable insurance.
  • Shift even more tax burden onto the $50K wage earnings while reducing it for millionaires, billionaires, and corporations.
  • Prevent health insurance coverage to 43 million uninsured Americans

This plan is then characterized by GOP as saving and strengthening Medicare, strengthening the middle class, and making our country stronger.
