GOP priorities: War over wellbeing

Now, after all these years of throwing billions of dollars at George W. Bush's unnecessary war of aggression in Iraq, the Republicans are suddenly worried about spending.

Because now there is a Democrat in the White House and a Democratic majority in Congress. And because President Obama wants to throw some money at the people, for a change.

Obama wants to fund health care coverage, job growth, and green energy development -- all the reasons why we voted for him in November.

So now the Republicans suddenly care about "fiscal responsibility".

To them, a war of choice, waged on lies, is apparently a justifiable expense. The wellbeing of our people and our planet, however, is not. And the billionaires enjoy their tax cuts and their tax havens as the rest of us foot the bill for this misguided agenda.

Do these people have no hearts? No souls?

And that goes for the obstructionist Blue Dog Dems as well.
