If you are a self-aware human, you should vote Obama 2012

I have to admit, I am generally pretty amused when I see commercials talking about the evils of the "Obama-Pelosi agenda" and how Democrats "don't represent family values." Many Americans seem to think Republicans will look out for their interests. Ha! 

Think about it (and check out the sources at the end since you shouldn't take my word for it):

People whom the "Obama-Pelosi agenda" protects: women, teachers, college students, children, the elderly, the disabled, racial and ethnic minorities, scientific researchers, atheists/agnostics/pagans/humanists, the LGBTQA community, the poor, the middle class, small business, American soldiers and veterans, anyone who ever needs a doctor/nurse/dentist/surgeon, etc. Democratic policies actually care about people; like Robin Hood, they tax the rich and give to the poor. In addition, they are far more likely to care about the environment, end America's wars in the Middle East, and improve America's image around the world than Republican policies.

People whom the Republican agenda* protects: white male Anglo-Saxon Protestants who make well over $100,000/yr, creationists, and unborn children (who, by the way, are less human and feel less pain than the chickens, pigs, and cows we torture in life and maim in death for the sake of our own gluttony). Republican policy taxes the poor and the middle class, and gives tax breaks to the rich. And that's just about all.

* By the Republican Party, I mean an awkward coalition of the religious right, nonreligious social ultraconservatives, and rich old men who will vote for Mitt Romney in 2012. With a pro-life, anti-evolution, and anti-gay rights platform, and with much superficially pro-business dialogue, the GOP can get well-meaning believers to vote for tax cuts for the rich, which, rather than resulting in trickle-down economics, instead makes the rich even richer and reduces the middle class. 

Before I finish this rant, Mitt Romney is a flip-flop candidate. As late as 2005, he wasn't even pro-life; he switched his views for the 2008 presidential bid in order to win the religious right. He also doesn't care about the lower and middle class, or, at least his company doesn't. Much like Richard Gere in Pretty Woman, Bain Capital frequently runs other companies to the ground for their own profits. Bain Captial kills jobs, not makes jobs. A founder of Bain Capital is not a person I want running America.
