We Won't Get Fooled Again

By Timothy V. Gatto

I've been reading the different articles headlining OpEdNews.com and I read articles by people that believe that we have won a victory over the right. We have, but not a victory that's final, or even in place yet. If you are only saying that the Right Wing Conservatives are not in the majority, then yes, we have won. If you are saying we now have a Congress that can lead this country back to what it was twelve years ago, you are going to be very disappointed.

Of the Democrats that have stayed in Congress and haven't lost their seats, there aren't many there that are worth their salt. Most voted to fund this brainless idiots war, and not one of them have raised the point that campaign financing is being done almost entirely by corporate and special interest groups which is the prime reason that our elected officials don't have to count on the people to bankroll their political campaigns. They have a huge war chest that is given to them by people that never want campaign finance reform to come to pass.

Just to point out again how much it cost's to run a political party, the Unions gave the DNC 70 million dollars just to get out the vote. Think about that for a minute. 70 million dollars in contributions just to get out the vote! That was just money that only matched what the Republicans had. The Democrats had to promise the Unions that they would fight for unions that used to make up 33% of the American Workforce and now, because of the years the right wing conservatives have had Washington, only make up 8% of the workforce. The Democrats and the Unions haven't worked like this for years, but their common disgust with the Bush administration and its rubber-stamping Congress made them get together. That's the way that it always should have been. The Unions should be siding with the Democrats and the rich with the Republicans. Nowadays, you can't tell a Republican from a Democrat, you don't need too.

The rest ...
