Hey Repugs - Make Safe Happen For Our Children.......


fund infrastructure rebuilding to make sure our children are safe on our streets, highways, bridges and our electrical grids and water and sewer systems. This is where we should start to 'make safe happen for our children'.

Nationwide Insurance Company says they wanted to start a dialogue on this topic based on their SuperBowl commercial.

I'm just picking up on Nationwide's theme and trying to embarrass the Repugs into doing something to rebuild the infrastructure in the country. Repugs have children too - they should want their children to be safe along with all children.

I think that this could be turned into a campaign. Tweet this out. Get it out on social media.

Make Safe Happen For Our Children - Rebuild America's Infrastructure.

A side benefit for doing this will create jobs and light a fire under our economy. It makes sense. It's not rocket science. We know that this is the right thing to do.

Stop embarrassing yourself DUmmie.

Hey DUmmie... you want your children to be safe, stop murdering them.

[DumbAss Tanker]

Isn't the Keystone pipeline infrastructure?

All kinds of problems could be avoided:

We could have the finest infrastructure in the world if we weren't keeping up so many democrat voters and their children with entitlements.

  To respond to the Great Recession, the primary objective for ARRA was to save and create jobs almost immediately. Secondary objectives were to provide temporary relief programs for those most impacted by the recession and invest in infrastructure, education, health, and renewable energy. The approximate cost of the economic stimulus package was estimated to be $787 billion at the time of passage, later revised to $831 billion between 2009 and 2019.[1] 

Almost $1 trillion. Where did it go DUmmies ?   Down a rat hole.

Hey, DUmbass.

You want to fix America's infrastructure, yet Barry wants to mothball power plants.
Your DUmbass president spent $800 BILLION to rebuild America's infrastructure, remember?  "Shovel ready" jobs.
The Keystone Pipeline is a prime example of building America's infrastructure, Barry vows to veto it.  WTF!

To answer your comments as politely as humanly possible, STFU, DUmbass! 

It's the job of the PARENTS to teach safety to their children.  That's what parents do.  Yes, accidents happen, I grew up on a farm, I have the scars to prove when I acted stupidly.  So does my brother, he lost his right arm to a piece of equipment when he was 4.  I have what can be best described as "9 1/2 fingers", having mangled 2 of them by age 8. 

FWIW, I firmly believe the only reason stupid people (and I use the term "people" loosely) like you exist is due to the proliferation of warning label.

[Movie buff- The Sequel]

Libs talk about "Make safe happen for our children," then oppose pretty much every measure designed around protecting kids from sexual predators.

[Carl]

So they like an insurance company today?

[Mr Mannn]

The Clintons taught me to clutch my wallet whenever the words, "For the children" were uttered.
Sorry global1, it's been done to death.

[delilahmused]

Would just one of you come over here and tell us what the hell happened to all those "shovel ready jobs"? You cannot blame Repulicans for that one because they werent in charge...in either branch.

It's not the job of the government or a political party to make sure YOUR children are safe.  Nor is it mine.

You want to "make safe happen"?  Teach your kids the Constitution, the Bible and give them the life skills to stand up on their own two feet and think for themselves.  Teach them to be kind, to stand up for what they believe in...for those who can't and to not take shit off of anyone.  Teach them to be proud of their country and instill in them a belief that they can go as far as they want to and be as successful as they want to because of the freedoms allowed them just because they were born in America.

You'll do them the biggest ****ing disservice known to mankind if you raise them to beleive that everything they need and/or want comes from the Fedreal Government and that the only way they'll ever get ahead is to have some federal agency make everything "fair".  Greed and envy of others and what they have leads you to become a bitter member of a shrill Progressive website with a post count north of 10K.

Primitive is attempting to retread the "Think of the children" campaign of the '90s... -Hoping to use it to stifle opinions they dislike.. Yawn.

The only shovels that were ready belonged to public employee union bosses standing in front of their dues coffers.

[SVPete]

"Repugs"? Are these the same DU-folk who bristle at "Democrat Party"?

How much infrastructure was fixed in the Clinton years, during which the Ds partly or entirely controlled Congress? How much infrastructure was fixed in the Obama years, during much of which the Ds partly or entirely controlled Congress? The Ds have controlled CA's legislature for decades and the governor's mansion since Gray Davis ( Mo-o-o-o-o-oderates!) ... why aren't CA roads the best in the nation?

[obumazombie]

Just like his secretary of state John "Effin" Kerry, owebuma is often for something ( like the children ) before he is against it...

http://newsbusters.org/blogs/ken-shepherd/2015/02/02/msnbcs-matthews-fails-mention-obama-skeptical-vaccines-2008

Or vice versa.
Remember when owebuma said GWB was unpatriotic and reckless when Bush had the debt at 9 trillion ?

And of course on the environmental front we have this from the Green Mountain Boys (sorry Ethan):
https://danfromsquirrelhill.wordpress.com/2015/02/01/vermont/

Vermont just replaced its only only nuclear reactor (which had accounted for 71.8% of the state’s electricity production) with fossil fuels obtained from fracking

Darn, gosh darn, dang,  don't ya just hate when this stuff happens?  Da Goricle will be berry, berry, mad at du

Get thee to the wood shed an split some carbon neutral wood.  And while ya're out there, cut me a switch!!

... and now back to our show "Hypocrisy on Display" featuring  DU's ensemble cast of loons.  Way  to go VT. How about a big liberal Frack You to all involved in making this happen.

Five Reasons Not to Raise the Gas Tax
By Randal O'Toole
http://www.cato.org/publications/commentary/five-reasons-not-raise-gas-tax?gclid=COWur92dxsMCFWgV7AodpiYACQ

For more than 50 years after Congress created the Highway Trust Fund in 1956 it was able to avoid a shortage of funds by a simple measure: it didn’t spend more than was collected in gas taxes. That changed in 2008, when tax revenues declined due to the financial crisis but Congress continued to spend as if the revenues were growing.   

Congress has diverted well over a fifth of gas taxes to non-highway projects

States Siphon Gas Tax for Other Uses

Texas spends 25% of its fuel-tax revenue on education programs. Kansas has allocated some of its gas-tax revenue to pay for Medicaid and schools.

When your mayor or governor spends the money on greenways, public transportation, and bicycle paths, there's less money to build new bridges with.

I am guessing there is four feet of snow on the bicycle path today.  Might be useful for a snowmobile but that would most certainly result in a fine or at least a harsh hooked finger look and stern talking too.
