The $2.5 Trillion Tragedy: What America Has Given Up For 10 Years Of Bush Tax Cuts | Common Dreams

The $2.5 Trillion Tragedy: What America Has Given Up For 10 Years Of Bush Tax Cuts | Common Dreams




Barrack Obama is being blamed for failure of his presidency left and right. He hasn't impressed me but the conservatives had 8 years to keep the ship afloat and instead our country is the lowest its been in my 30 year lifetime. This followed the highest of all modern cultures in the 1990s. We have to right the ship. We need accountability, leadership, and vision. And we need a country to stand up and get smart about their lives. We have more tools and more resources than ever before. I am guessing over 50% of the public has a smart phone or a computer access near them all the time now. It's on us now. No one has an excuse. We have to overcome the lies and the propaganda and move forward and make this nation strong again. George Bush said the war on terrorism isn't our war, it's civilization's war.

This is not, however, just America's fight. And what is at stake is not just America's freedom. This is the world's fight. This is civilization's fight. This is the fight of all who believe in progress and pluralism, tolerance and freedom.

We ask every nation to join us. We will ask, and we will need, the help of police forces, intelligence services, and banking systems around the world.
LINK TO SPEECH

If you believe that regarding the war on terrorism then it follows that the challenge of our success on a global scale as a leader in education, commerce, industry, and scientific exploration represents not just our one country's goal but the goal of all modern civilization. It's too important to ruin with politics. We simply must find a way forward and do the correct choice. What we have now is unacceptable and people are going to have to change. I see us moving backwards in the wake of Obama's presidency. Until we accept those mistakes made by the right-wing we will just keep repeating them and further decimate our position in the world.
