Relief and Justice Under Law Here? Don't Even Think About It
The tough year of 2014 is in the history books. The
mid-term is over. The GOP takes total control in Congress very shortly. Those
nasty fights and issues all gone, right? Yeah, right. Hang on tight. It’s review
time. A brand new order of fireworks and legislative bombs have been restocked
in the GOP House and Senate arsenals. Info round up follows – enjoy. But fair warning: It
ain't gonna be pretty. A few key topics in the article follow. Dig around other
sources as I am sure you can find more down wind on the GOP’s rifle range that
we’ll all have to contend with. As I said, it’s gonna be ugly and nasty (I hope
I am wrong, but don’t think). Nevertheless, it may not be such a happy new year after all.
1. Lies About Voter Fraud, Voter Suppression, and Attacks on Voting Rights (* just in time to influence 2016 - actually the GOP's plan all along)
2. Right-Wing Media Will Push Repeal of Obama's Executive Action on Immigration (* and make the issue worse - bet on it)
3. Hobby Lobby Was Just The Beginning (* re: A woman's right to choose)
4. Will Media Better Cover Campaign Finance Deregulation in Advance of the 2016 Presidential Election? (* my first hunch: probably not - big money benefits big media, too)
5. Right-Wing Attempt to Gut the Affordable Care Act (Obama-care) Will Be Decided in 2015 (* this is the GOP's big enchilada)
6. Obama Administration's Nominees Will Face More Obstruction From the Republican-Controlled Senate (* cooperation: we don't need no stinkin' cooperation)
7. Supreme Court May Continue to Weaken Affirmative Action (* back to the future for sure - balls to the walls as it were - the key question: Why?)
8. "Tort Reform" Will Reappear in 2015: Assault on Access to Justice Will Continue (* this has been long-term GOP goal for years)
Thanks for stopping by.
