The GOP: Party of Greed?

I did not think it could be done.  The evil GOP is responsible for every bad thing that has happened or is happening to the United States today.  How one person can link the rising gas prices, rising heating oil prices, the deaths of American soldiers, the deaths of Iraqis, the deaths from Vioxx, and the deaths from Hurricane Katrina all without one shred of evidence?  Wow!  You got to see this post by the kos kids to believe it.

We are bled at the gas pump. We are bled at the workplace. We are even bled in our homes as heating oil prices soar while energy companies reap the greatest profit in human history and object to paying their fair share of taxes on it.

And of course, there’s the literal blood, of Iraqis and American troops spilled in the sands and streets of the Middle East. America bleeds in the mines of West Virginia., floats face down in the streets of New Orleans, drops dead from Vioxx. So very, very many victims. And, of course, no perpetrators, because people who loathe government are in charge of government, and they most sacredly aver that government has no real role in safety issues, disaster preparedness or illness prevention. No role in preparation or prevention at all, in fact, in their ideal, privatized world.

Do these people really believe the US had no problems before the Republicans took over?  The moonbats’ knight in shining armor was Bill Clinton who did nothing about bringing in more oil into our country, but he did institute new regulations of the refinery business bringing up costs and down supplies.  A refinery has not been built in this country in more than 20 years.  And its not because the evil oil companies are trying to artificially keep the gas prices up.  The prices are a product of supply and demand.  The more supply, the lower the cost.  Simple.

The Vioxx debacle was done during the Clinton administration.

George Bush did not build the levies in New Orleans, but it was the corrupt Democrats in the city who wasted the levy money on other pet projects.  In fact, George Bush gave New Orleans more money for the levies than any other president.  So, at whose feet do the deaths lie?

And yes, American soldiers are fighting and dying in Iraq and Afghanistan.  At least this President is willing to send troops to protect us.  Clinton was more interested in his peccadilloes in the Oval Office than protecting America.  Clinton did nothing to protect us, even when he was offered Usama bin Laden on a silver platter.

You got to read the rest of the article to see how these moonbats see conspiracies in everything the President does, everything Republicans do, and everything big business does.  These people are out there.
