The Republican Party, Just Say “No”

The Republican Party is rapidly becoming (some might say ALWAYS have been) the “Party of NO.” Why? Because that is ALL they are putting forth.

Do Republicans like Obama’s budget? NO.

Do Republicans have an alternative budget? NO.

Do Republicans like Obama’s stimulus package? NO.

Do Republicans have an alternative Stimulus package? NO.

Do Republicans like Obama’s “bailout” package? NO.

Do Republicans have an alternative “bailout” package? NO.

Do Republicans like Obama’s “new” regulations for Wall Street? NO.

Do Republicans have alternative “new” regulations? NO.

Do Republicans like Obama’s Health Care plan? NO.

Do Republicans have an alternative Health Care plan? NO.

Do Republicans like Obama’s Global Warming and “Cap and Trade” plans? NO.

Do Republicans have an alternative solution to Global Warming and “Cap and Trade” plans? NO.

Do Republicans like Obama’s tax reductions for the 95% of middle class and poor Americans? NO.

Do Republicans like Obama’s plan to allow tax cuts for the wealthy to expire? NO, NO, NO,

When Obama mentioned yesterday March 25th, “Saying NO to drugs is a good idea, but saying NO to economic stimulus plans without alternative ideas is NOT a good idea.” The Republicans responded by saying, “Yes, we have our own ideas, we have our own plan.”

Then the Republicans ran to their offices, tore out reams of paper material and threw together a “FAUX” 19 pages full of pictures and platitudes pamphlet plan that had NOTHING in it. What it is NOT filled with is concrete proposals, numbers and solutions. Instead it offers critiques, criticisms and what they view is wrong with Obama’s plan. “Oh, but wait, we will have something more detailed NEXT WEEK.”

Then I guess this PROVES the Republicans REALLY DO NOT have ANY ideas or plans.

The Republicans can ONLY talk of “reducing taxes on the wealthy, businesses, and big corporations. That is their ONLY plan. That has been their plan for a decade. There HAVE BEEN two Bush tax cuts for the wealthy in the last 8 years, and guess what, those two tax cuts DID NOT CREATE MORE JOBS, DID NOT STIMULATE THE ECONOMY, DID NOTHING FOR THE COUNTRY “EXCEPT” INCREASE THE NATIONAL DEBT, but Republicans have no other ideas, plans, or alternatives.

Republicans ARE the party of NO! NO SOLUTIONS!
