Is anyone looking for a 65-year-old, with P.T.S.D, Bi-Polar, Parkinson's, and Dementia
to hire?
I've decided Tuesday night election results suggest leaders of the Democratic party
are unable to do anything but run from our President. They should be fired and replaced.
Our country says they are angry how Congress doesn't do anything.
The voters send back the same people with minor exceptions. Despite continuous
job growth, good news about the deficit, lower gas prices, Insurance for people who
could never buy it(like me and my son.)I predict the ACA will be gutted. The Supreme
Court will say Congress should pass a marriage act and let two-thirds of the Country
vote on a marriage law. I always thought the majority should never deprive a minority
of their equal rights!
Osama Bin Laden was killed under our President's watch, over half of our country
doesn't like our President. Mitch won by saying Obama is the devil. Ted Cruz is
excited as hell. Rush says Republican's were elected to stop our President from
doing anything.
Budget cuts are coming. I am a patient at the VA hospital, I have been one since 2002.
I have never seen wait times for appointments for anything this long.
Need glasses? you will wait 6 months. Got a problem with Parkinson's? see you in
February.
I guess it's everyone for themselves. I am answering sales adds, hell I even bought
a new suit!
I carry a notebook which tells me my address, phone number, what kind of car I drive and where I'm going. I can outsell Democrats.I think some force of nature
has dropped stupid dust over people.It's that or some people in this country are cruel
mean, selfish, and racists.
Whatever the reason the election turned out as it did, the next two years on all of us
will be brutal. I hope no one is killed when a bridge falls down or a road crumbles.
Any Woman of modest means better find thousands for an abortion. The keystone
pipeline will be a battle in Congress, Republican's don't have to work much to override
a veto. Fracking will be collateral damage.
I see more and more people begging on the streets. Every 65 minutes a Veteran commits suicide.
Big corporations will pay less in taxes, taxes will go up in many states. Republicans
rule local government in over half of our Country.wages will barely keep up with
inflation. Those of us on disability will receive a 1.7% raise starting in January,
inflation is running around 2%.
The best I can offer folks is to work as many jobs as you can, make sure your savings
will be enough to live on when you retire. I've been supporting 2 ill sons so I will work
till I drop. My 68-year-old friend will keep scrubbing floors until she dies.
Now for the good news; you're alive. Follow me into the extended part below.
Sunrises and sunsets are still free. Exercise will keep you feeling good. I bet you love
your family. One great thing about the people in America is their ability to survive.
There have been times like this before in our country. Cycles are nothing new. Our side
created Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid. Republican's create nothing. A Republican
wants the government to defend our shores with other peoples children, deliver mail,
and stay the hell out of their lives.
Enjoy every part of life, laugh every day, and enjoy beautiful things. Beauty is all around
you if you look for it.
I will be fine, I will find a job and keep it as long as possible. My notebook may get
really big but not knowing who the hell I am might be fun.
Be well.
...the tragedy in life does not lie
in not reaching your goal.The
tragedy lies in having no goal to
reach. It isn't a calamity to die
with dreams unfulfilled, but it is
a calamity not to dream. It is not
a disgrace not to reach the stars,
but it is a disgrace to have no
stars to reach for.
