It has been a few days since I've written anything. We had house guests last weekend, so it took a few days to get the house in order and then a few days of visiting with them. Now, life is back to normal.

Before you read this you should be informed that it will be a rant against the proposed cuts the House GOP want to make to the national budget.

They want to cut budgets for hiring Police. Well, we all know there are just to many police personnel. That is why we are in a Utopian society where there is no crime. Duh, I guess if you are rich, like a majority of the GOP, you can live in gated communities and not have to worry about crime. Except your Representative neighbor who is looking at child porno, beating his wife, sending pics over the internet of his middle aged body. So no police are needed to take care of those little problems.

Family planning will also be eliminated. Nope, no need for family planning programs. There is no teen pregnancies in the GOP god fearing families. Oops, evidently, Sarah Palins daughter missed that one. Now, don't get me wrong, I was a single mother for years. I know that mistakes will and can be made. But maybe, if family planning had been out there, I would have been a little more prepared.

Next on the chopping block, is Public Broadcasting. We all know that PBS is not needed nearly as much as shows like "The Jersey Shore", "The Bachelor/Bachelorette", "Survivor", "The Real Housewives", etc. What possibly can be learned from "Sesame Street", "The Electric Company"," Masterpiece Theater", "Nova"? Truly the the GOP would just like to dumb down Americans even more. That way, we will believe them when in they are in office and call for a made up war.

Other cuts would be made to food aid for women and children. Ya, why should be make sure these folks have food. Oh, sure, they could always go to McDonald's and eat from the dollar menu. Good balanced meals to be had there.

Cuts to the CDC, there is no need to keep on top of illnesses. The drug companies need more money. It just isn't fair that the American Public might be able to get decent health care at a reasonable price or free. So the money needs to be cut. It is really a kill the poor and old program brought to you by the Republican party and the rich.

Next on the chopping block is the Community Development Fund. Why should anyone want to improve communities? The GOP are fine in their gated communities, county club estates, etc. There is no need to improve where the majority of Americans live.

I am appalled at the cuts being considered. There is no compassion or caring in the Republican party. Please, when you think about which party you believe in, think about the middle and lower income people who worked and made American what it is.
