White House: Republicans are ’party of no’

I work with a few very vocal republicans. They're trying to help me, as a poor misguided democrat, see the folly of my ways.
All I hear them say is Obama is a socialist, Obama wants to raise taxes. Obama wants to take our money and give it to some out of work, single mother, on welfare, who keeps having bastard babies. Why should we bail out some looser who didn't pay his mortgage?

Course I ask them, Isn't bailing out banks socialism? It seams they have no problem bailing out these inept, corrupt and greedy Wall Street types, who literally take the money and run after making huge salaries, (http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=7802)
then running their companies into the ground in the process. But they get all in arms over helping some poor smuck, who's about to lose their house, because they lost their job, through no fault of their own, due to the economy.
Why is that?
I'd rather bail out American families, not Wall Street assholes!

And here we finally have a President who's really trying to fix the huge mess Georgie boy left for us and all some republicans can do is obstruct, criticize and throw tea parties in opposition of the President's efforts.

So I ask my republican friends:

Who started the de-regularization of Wall Street that led us to this current mess the economy is in? Answer: President Ronald Reagan did in 1983.

Who started his campaign while running for president telling us that our economy was fundamentally sound? Answer: Mr John Mc Cain former a member of the Keating Five.
Who I am sooooo happy by the way, lost.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keating_Five)

Who started this HMO bullshit we live with now? Answer: Mr. I'm not a crook Nixon, another republican. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QkgUkM0o6Q)

Who wanted to forgive Iraq's debt while making it harder for US citizens to claim for Bankruptcy? Mr Georgie Boy Bush....

In the meantime, If you owe the government money, watch-out! The IRS will take every last dime from you, take your home, ruin your life, while President Bush wanted to give the Iraqi's a clean slate while forgiving THEIR debt. What about us Mr President? Just who do YOU, (DID you), work for? Don't forget, he threw money at these Wall Street fat cats with no strings attached on how they used it. And Oh How they used it!

So the next time you hear a Republican complain about Obama, understand who helped us get where we are today and tell them to go teabag someone...
