"Politidose", your daily dose of political commentary was started by my grandson during the 2008 Presidential campaign. He did so because he believed there should be a source of political expression outside the main street media and the beltway so the average person could comment on the campaign and make their thoughts known. He invited me to write political commentary because he knew I loved and followed politics and I have been sharing my thoughts in politidose since.
If one takes the time to read politidose all the way back to its inception you will find political commentary that talks about events that are in the news today and were predicted as far back as 2007. The transfer of wealth from the middle class to the wealthy, republicans inability to balance the federal budget, federal spending, the national debt, deficit spending, job creation, the Iraq war, the economy, the unAmerican ideology practiced by the leaders of the republican party today and corporate greed are only a few examples.
Those in the major news media and cable TV have been late in their reports to the people on the subject matter that was already published here in politidose and in many cases have been just plain ignorant. The Sunday talk shows could learn a lot about facts and would be better prepared if they read politidose to answer the false charges their guest make on their shows.
There are many firsts for politidose that the readers are familiar with especially concerning the economy and unemployment while the pundits were predicting unemployment to stay above 9% all of 2011 and 2012 politidose was on target and pointed out it would be closer to the 7% range by election 2012. It was also pointed out how the Obama administration would move the country and its people out of the second great republican depression. Yes, for those who really care, understanding the past is still the key to the future.
