Senate gives public the middle finger and the Mainstream Media barely reacts

Andrew Taylor and Ben Feller of the Associated Press penned an article called Senate Republicans vote to kill Obama's jobs bill and it was made up of just 4 paragraphs.  Four paragraphs, I mean that’s it.  The U.S. Senate can not pass a bill that they know very well is sorely needed by their constituents and all that get’s reported on is 4 paragraphs.  Where is the outrage?

Americans are struggling to make ends meet.  Businesses are refusing to lift a finger to help but do not mind paying billions to buy congress and keep profits high.  They do not mind enjoying the protection that this country affords them but do mind helping to protect their fellow Americans.  Congress hired to represent the people but can’t seem to find their backbone to vote in favor of these people when they need them the most and all we have to say about this is 4 paragraphs.

The 46 Republicans and 2 Democrats should be consistently hounded by the Mainstream Media and asked over and over again, how they can sleep at night knowing that they had the opportunity to do their jobs and refused.  They take the money but they refuse to earn it by just doing their jobs.  Where is the outrage and what’s happening to our most influential media?  Are they more concerned with their up-coming guest spots than they are asking the tough question and demanding better answers from those that are being trusted to lead?  When will it be time for those hired to do a job both in congress and in the media be forced to do it.

Movie Review-Harlan Coben's Shelter

  The movie Shelter is based on the bestselling series by Harlan Coben, it follows the story of Mickey Bolitar (Jaden Michael) after the death of his father leads him to start a new life in suburban New Jersey. When another new student disappears, Mickey finds himself tangled in a web of secrets. With the help of two new friends, Spoon (Adrian Greensmith) and Ema (Abigale Corrigan), they reveal a dark underground that may hold the answers to decades of disappearances. Keeping me totally engrossed from the first episode to the last was not really the storyline or the actions and dramas, it was how awesomely those actors and actresses played their roles.   It seemed so effortless, watching them, that it was easy to forget it was a movie/series. I could not control my anxiousness to start the next episode.   Not many movies can make me feel the same emotions that the players were supposed to feeling but man, this was one and that journey this series took me on was one that I must go on

The Determination of History to Repeat Itself is Due to our Cowardice to Stop It

  America has always been the land of opportunity however we have become lax in our efforts to ensure that this right is made available for all of us to achieve and enjoy.   Far too often, those who see themselves in a position of authority or great wealth begin to confuse themselves with an idea that since you may be thought of as successful, means your now have the power and authority to dictate to everyone else. This lying power makes those allowed to flex it feel bigger and better than they really are.   It gives them a false sense of righteousness and security over all people, places, and things which must be corrected before we completely lose our very humanity. Every last one of us knows this is wrong but history has allowed these individuals to exercise this false position of power without consequences and punishment. Every one of us is guilty of sitting on our hands and waiting on someone else to save us instead of finding our own intestinal fortitude to save ourselves.   We

When the Republican Party Stopped Being the Party of Lincoln

  You hear many claim the Republican party as the Party of Lincoln when they make attempts to reform the current Republican Party into a party of human rights, decency, and a true governing body but these attempts soon fall face first at the feet of those who prefer to bully people instead of listening to them.   Those using this method often gets extremely frustrated because they thought this fact would snap them out of this MAGA funk and back to a party one could be truly proud of again. The frustration mounts because perhaps they said it to the wrong wayward Republicans or in the wrong group of the GOP because they truly believe that if anyone looked at the stance that Lincoln took, they would change directions and honor his name and memory.   The truth is, the Republican Party stopped being the party of Lincoln when those of political strength and influence created a plan to install their own guy into the seat of the presidency during Lincoln’s second term.   History tells us t
