The Republicans have a great labeling department.

While the junior grade presidential candidates are all bloviating saying how evil President Obama is, the president is getting things done in spite of a do-nothing-congress. Amidst all the hullabaloo of the primary elections President Obama is at work and on the job. And if he’s not in the Oval Office, the office goes with him.

But anyway, while the President is writing and proposing honest policy, the junior presidential want-a-be’s are hard at work trying to redefine who President Obama is. Or, at least who they wish him to be. Republicans wish the president to be a failure. Failure? Even though he is not what they wish him to be. Never mind who the Republican leadership is and the candidates are. Reprobates and prevaricators.

None the less, if you can’t come up with reasonable policies or legislation for America, then slam your opponent. Make him or her look bad. A good lie or two helps. I am ashamed to admit it but the Republicans are only good at one thing. Labeling others and distorting the truth. More like ignoring the truth and slandering whomever they revile. They even disparage and pound each other. Mit loves to hammer Newt. Just watch and listen.

But the bottom line for Republican Presidential hopefuls is, they have no promises nor are they willing to make promises. I take that back. They promise to undo everything President Obama work hard for. No willing intent for the greater good. Just buyer beware and the banks and insurance companies want your money. And will be aided by congressional deregulation and fuzzy legislation

Now ask yourself this. Better yet, ask a Republican. Were Republicans the ones who came up with Health care reform? No. Was it Republicans that came up with consumer protection and banking regulation? No. Was it Republicans that brought back the automobile industry from disaster? No. Did congressional Republicans try to protect your drinking water and air quality? No. Was it Republicans who tried to protect all American’s civil rights and human equality? No. Was it Republicans who tried to promote quality education? No. Was it Republicans who want all Americans to earn at least a livable minimum wage? No. Is it the Republicans leadership that support public workers? No.

The Republicans hate public schools. They hate public school teachers. Republicans despise policemen and their unions. Also dislike firemen and their collective bargaining. And the same goes for nurses, social workers, school councilors, the board of education and on and on.

So, if you talk to a man or woman running for public office and they plan to get rid of Obamacare, ask him or her with what will they replace Obamacare with. How will they make health care affordable? What will they do with the millions of families without health care. What will they plan to do to develop alternative energy? How will they bring down the cost of gasoline. With what will they replace coal fire power plants with. Natural gas? Nuclear? Wind, solar, bio fuels or what?

What will happen is, you will see that silly Republican smirk along with a look of “are you kidding me?” Republicans don’t do that kind of stuff. We have no social policies. No reforming legislation. Just criticism for the President. They hate the President. Republicans think Obama is a failure and America is going to hell in a hand basket along with him. Oh, sure. Just look around.

Therefore, all the Republicans wants, is the President’s job. Nothing else. No progressive policies or helpful legislation for America. No health care. No clean air. No jobs. Temporary work on a pipeline is not a job or career.

The only thing the Republicans can say about the office of the president, “Just give me the Whitehouse. I certainly deserve it.” After all, I’m a Republican. Oh? Really?
