What's best for the people?

"They've attacked us, sabotaged us, abducted us--" Ops, wrong speech
Hello blog, yesterday President Obama made his speech in Wisconsin about future plans for the economy. Among the highway jobs and railroads there’s another portion I want to bring to you attention. The money sent to corporations—small business and big corporations.
Billions of dollars granted to corporations to invest into equipment and billions more sent to small businesses for relief. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Wouldn't that go with the republican agenda? Right, so if we apply a little logic that would mean Republicans would agree and give props to Obama for doing something they have wanted to do since 2008.

Nope, sorry wrong they got you again!

Obama was instead criticized from all sides about this new plan. It was also suggested that this plan be approached with skepticism. Basically, don’t do this plan, Obama, until republicans take over the senate. So then they can pass it and claim the credit.
Like I've said before, ladies and gentlemen, this is politics at its worst. When you put aside your parties principles in which people look to VOTE FOR YOU or to look past helping the American people! Just to protect your party’s interest. That is politics at its worst easily.
Speaking of attacking Obama, I think we have heard the common argument on "Obamacare" that it shouldn't be done because the majority disagrees. Which wouldn't be all that bad of a statement if the Republicans didn’t want to extend Bush’s Tax cuts. (Only 35% of Americans care about or think will help in anyway.)
I don’t understand the logic of saying because the majority doesn't approve it shouldn't be done. Isn't that politics 101. Douchebaggery, do things to get re-elected even if people don’t like it. And since when is always agreeing with the majority a good thing. The majority a number of times have been wrong. Slavery, Women’s rights you name it. All looked down upon in its town and disliked by the majority. Now am I saying they should ignore the majority? No, but trying to make a point out of it over one issue even though your party does it too makes very little sense to me.
Face it folks, Obama was spot on in his speech when he said Republicans would say the sky isn't blue, and that is what I hate about the campaign season. Let's move back to the issues not hide the Mosque from Ground Zero to make issues out of something that should be settled with the fact they have the constitutional right. No, we will still talk about it though instead of things like Sharon Angle wanting to have every pregnancy investigated. Everyone loves Washington!
