I think, and I hope, people will start to wake up and see what is actually going on. The big job crisis in this country is in the public sector.

Private employment has grown more than all 8 years of Bush combined..and then some

example:

But when the republicans got into power in 2010 in the state houses.. the cutting and gutting of public sector jobs began.

These are real honest to GOD jobs, paying decent money to people, many times minorities.. and cutting and gutting these jobs will skew the unemployment crisis.

This is what was planned from the get go.. if they could get in power and why they "talked" jobs before the election and did NOTHING after.

This is also why you have red governors turning down money for rail systems etc that would build the infrastructure and employ people.

As long as the republican t party people who are being backed by Koch and Murdoch etc are in power.. they will continue this strategy because it gets them back in power.

They are not going to back down on this. So our only hope is to get people out to vote.. not sit home.. off year elections are bad bad bad for that.

We have to vote them out.. all of them.

Think about Walker in Wisc. and Pa., Fla.. etc.. Steve King here in Iowa (he has been up for re-election twice and refuses to debate his opponent both time..)

I am telling you from my heart and from experience.. the longer they stay and get dug in, the harder it is going to be to move them out.

The time is now to keep the message going and clean house of the t party people.

That sickly smirk you see on all those reps from the t party.. the ryan the cantor..they are pod people and will never ever deal

They have been working 24/7 to rid their party of all rational republicans.

We gotta turn out that vote
