Helloween!

In the Streets on Halloween
The Spirits will Arise
Make your choice, it's Hell or Paradise
Ahhhhhhhhh - It's Halloween
~ Halloween, Helloween
Republicans love Halloween because it's right before election time when they can continue to Trick the Voters of America and enjoy the Treat of funneling Trillions of Dollars to their Corporate Masters who then allow the Republicans to siphon off Billions of American Taxpayer Dollars to themselves, their families and their Cronies.

But, while the Trillions in Treats would be bad enough the Tricks they play in getting Voters riled up at the thought of food stamps and decent medical care for the poor is down right vicious.

Extremely sad regarding how true your observation is, but a very funny device you used to make your point - Republicans Trick AND Treating.

This is expected behavior from Republicans though. What's worse is those blue dog democrats who we are not currently sure we can depend on to vote for cloture. Or former democrats who have stated publically that they won't.

Joe Liberman Tricked the voters into believing he supported Universal Health Insurance coverage in 2006.

During the 2006 campaign "Lieberman ...pushed for a plan he called 'MediChoice', which would 'allow anybody in our country to buy into a national insurance pool like the health insurance pool that we federal employees and Members of Congress have'".

In 2006 he supported a public option and in 2009 he is against it. I wonder why. Maybe it is because he has Treated himself by accepted $2,395,369 in donations from the health sector and $1,033,402 from the insurance industry (Over his career).

Thanks for you comment and highlighting Joe Lieberman. I was in CT during the run-up to the 2006 elections. Lieberman ran a bunch of ads with "CT workers" worrying that Ned LaMont wouldn't have the power in the Senate to keep the sub base at New London CT up and running. Lieberman won using Socialism, federal government money flowing to CT citizens.

Also, thanks for the compliment, Trick And Treat is the Republican MO.

Trick the poor and middle class to vote for them by using made up issues (ooooooohh Gays getting Married= End of America) while they Treat themselves by using the Government to strip Trillions of Dollars from the American Taxpayer and use the American Workers to further Republican Interests here and abroad, through Industry and War...
