  With an end game well within their reach, the U.S. Senate has inched closer to doing something good for a change. Although they have been dragged kicking & screaming to this moment, both sides of the aisle will claim some kind of credit for giving us Health Care Reform. Democrats will crow about what it is while republicans will crow about what it is not. As for me and my house, we are going out to dinner. My next show will be its usual great production, so tune in and enjoy. Peace - FrankG

  President's Address Rated a Hit - GOP response a Miss

  As sure as we are a nation desperate for change it is also true that we are a nation needing to be insipid while waiting. President Barack Obama hit for the cycle last night and hope springs eternal. The President used his oratorical skills to re-instill the hope we felt last fall as the primaries evolved into the national election, and he became 44. Not even the "lets sit on our assets and act smug" posture of the GOP dampened the enthusiasm of we the people and democrats in the chamber. The GOP's stock is so low they had to send a non-congressional republican to respond. Bobby Jindal came across like a fake rolex watch after you have seen a real one. He can't be held responsible for his performance when you consider the record of his party. If Jindal, Sarah Palin, and Michael Steele are the future of the GOP, we are safe for another quarter century - they won't be back in power anytime soon. My show today will of course be a continuation of the accolades and highlights of the Presidents address. I hope you will join me in the dialog. $0$0$0

  The GOP - Grandstanding Onerous Party

  My next show titled "Playing Politics in the Midst of A Crisis" will try to cover with clarity the kind of information the sane among us can use to make sound decisions. Our nation is in a crisis of monumental economic downturns, and the right-wing noise machine is encouraging a congressional mutiny by republicans. Being a party whose members operate under the flag of the Confederacy, there is a herd mentality that touches every card carrying GOP'er in the country. They have Michael Steele readying the "Hip Hop Initiative" to attract more Blacks into their dungeon; they have Jim Bunning placing a Supreme court Justice on her death bed; they've got another idiot still extolling the 'Obama ain't a citizen' falsehood; and it is only Monday. Meanwhile back at the White House, President Obama is leading all the way to our recovery in spite of the GOP. Yes I am among those saying stop trying to get republicans to think, but the President is too kind to listening to us - and I am glad. But it will not stop me from informing the nation of the GOP's real identity - the Grandstanding Onerous Party!

  Republicans Hoping America Goes into the Tank

  Being led by blowhard radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh, congressional republicans are hoping efforts to rescue the nation from economic collapse fail. Rather than showing patriotism and concern for we the people, these boobs prefer to pray for further failure and loss of jobs by citizens hoping for stimulus success. How they can face the public or even live with themselves goes beyond the pale. Their enablers are in the same boat as the rest of us but as useful idiots  go, their bigotry outweighs their self interest. This party has become a public ship of fools validated by a documentary currently playing on HBO produced by Alexandra Pelosi. The President is punking republicans left and right but they are blinded by the false bravado by party leaders like McCain the defeated, and Limbaugh the unseated. The minority party is becoming a regional band of rebel rousers that will probably start waving the Confederate Flag at their press conferences. With the Presidents housing initiative on the table now we can expect the right-wing nuts to escalate their hue and cry against his success.You are advised to ignore the cable news show pundits, guessers being paid to pontificate without facts or proof of their positions, and keep your eyes on the President - He is running this and will do it well.

  Stimulus Bill fastest in History

  Denver will once again be the site of history being made by President Barack Obama. In an attempt to overcome the continued efforts by the GOP, and their army of talking heads, to block democratic progress the president will sign a bill we sorely need. The stimulus bill is just that - an effort to stimulate our economy before it suffers a complete collapse. The GOP in its usual un-American manner has failed to hold this bill hostage, and will surely be punished by voters again for their lack of patriotism. Hopefully the president is over his "lets be friends" overtures to the right-wing nuts in congress, and will now focus on doing the right thing for America. We need him to get this economic situation better so he can spend some much needed time and energy in our foreign policy needs. Having the record of getting a huge stimulus bill out of congress at warp speed, and taking his show back on the road so we the people can energize him again, the president can settle into the job and create change for the better.

  Recap of Presidents Week

  This is a week we will long remember as the week of snatching victory out of the jaws of defeat. Watching congress make sausage makes you want to give up eating so to think they could have the Stimulus package on the President's desk by next week is commendable. The reason this is possible is because President Obama took it to the streets of America and the people said, "let our relief from this economic tsunami go." We have to give the administration kudo's for the shrewd move of doing town hall meetings in selected places to get the attention of congress. Today's show will cover a number of things that made this a week to remember - Octuplets, star beat downs, and middle east politics. I will also apologize for doing the show yesterday with the mike turned off - you missed a great show!

  Are We Really Ready for Change In America?

  My continuing effort to rally my listeners is due to the resistance coming from the right-wing noise machine against change. Wanting a continuation of the Bush doctrine is insane, but so was electing him for a second term. While I reluctantly put a thumbs down on impeachment of Bush and Cheney - I have no problem with a thorough investigation of possible crimes committed during their reign of error. It is absurd to think our nation can overcome the damage the Bush cabal did without creating more debt in the form of a stimulus bill. The right-wingers crying "it's too much" are victims of short term memories of the support they gave "W" when he was plunging us into a serious deficit disorder. I am promoting a continuing effort by voters to send more republicans home so our homeland can recover from their errors and omissions over the last eight years. We need the change the Obama administration wants to put into play, and we need it now. I say we are ready for change and deserve it - what say you? Call me during my live broadcast and let me know how you feel about it.

  Republicans Fiddle While Rome Burns

  The republicans are showing why voters are electing democrats now. This party of whiners and sore losers is placing politics above rescue, and letting thousands of jobs end with no safety net for workers. We need a boost to our economy to stop the bleeding but instead of participating in helping the nation the GOP is being childish. All of a sudden, after 8 years of supporting deficit spending, the self proclaimed guardians of America's moral compass is acting amoral. How can they justify not supporting an effort to stimulate the economy by nit picking small details, some of which have already been moved out of the pending bill. It is not about us or the economy my friends - it is a losers lament. My show today is a hard hitting criticism of the GOP and it's enablers. A candid conversation about a party out of touch with reality; a compassionless bunch of losers they are.
