The smug assholishness of these Repugs never ceases to amaze......

Ohio Repug gubernatorial candidate John Kasich said this re: high-speed rail: “If you want that train, I hope you can get over that and vote for me anyway, but you’re not going to get that train.”


Nevermind the jobs and infrastructure boost it could bring to Ohio. You little people aren't going to get your train, but vote for me anyway.

2. He has made it perfectly clear that he does not want any funds going to passenger rail;
instead, it's all highways.."build more highways". Meaning= anyone who doesn't drive (or doesn't want to drive) is S.O.L.

3. I'm sickened that this asshole could become the governor of this state.
I see his fucking signs everywhere. What the hell is wrong with the people of Ohio? It's like the populace is completely retarded. I want to just smack the shit out of people here. If this smug prick gets elected, this state goes down the shitter, and it's as if these morons don't care. As long as a republican get in office, to hell with jobs, the economy, progress... God help me, I WANT THE FUCK OUT OF OHIO, AND THIS FUCKED UP COUNTRY!!!

6. And the main thing that gets me is
they are saying they are going to change and fix what Bush did to this country. Not that they are saying Bush did it. We hear this crap about the deficit. Well who ran it up and look at the tax deficit caused by those tax cuts for the rich. Look at the jobs that went overseas, and these republicans are gonna get the people jobs. See what I mean. Every single solitary thing they spew is what Bush did and what they stopped the Democrats from fixing because they blocked and denied it. I totally blame the Democrats in the Senate. They let the republicans get away with every thing they wanted. The bowed down to them and caved on every single thing they wanted. Look at the Health Care bill, OK but is sure could have been a hell of a lot better if they hadn't let the republicans carve it up. And they did the same thing to Wall Street's bill. It is a shame that mostly who will suffer, if any seats are lost are the reps in the House who did their job, but couldn't get past the antique rules in the senate, that Democrats wouldn't change. And it is not because they wanted them in place to use if they were the minority. Because go back and look not one Democrat has used them in 50 years.
