For those of you who don't remember, the AWM was a significant voting block that helped return power in the Legislative branch of the government to the Republicans in 1994. The same thing appears to be in the works for the elections in 2010.
Except this time around the AWM will not be White or Male, but they will most definitely be Angry.
Angry that the President and Congress have....
- indebted every person in their household by $10k for 2010 and another $5k/yr for the next three years due to record breaking deficit spending
- renamed tax credits as "tax breaks" and that the tax reductions the President promised disappeared when they didn't spend $10k for energy saving windows or heating system, weren't a first time home buyer, or didn't buy a new car
- found out that their high paying managerial and technical jobs have been replaced by $20/hr civil service jobs created by the largest ever single increase in Federal spending
- taken away their tax deductions for their charities and mortgage payments (got to pay for those increases in federal spending somehow)
My 70-yr old mother is now part of the AWM. I bet your mother will be too.
Hhm, Angry White Mothers.
