The democrats are now in a position of countering the republican proposal and to date all they have to say is that the republicans are being too
extreme. Thats not a counter proposal. What is the counter proposal? They have done nothing but talk about tweaking the edges.
That is interesting... Apply the first to sentences to the healthcare debate, went from universal care (socialism) to Obamacare (socialism)... what is
interesting is that Obamacare and its construct is purely a capitulation for the benefit of conservatives, that debate, if you'd call it that, was a
one way, monkey, rock toss. I really think it was disgusting actually, there is indeed, a crisis of cost in healthcare, of rescission, of preventable
suffering, instead of debate, we drug out the ghost of the USSR, that was truly shameless. I am under the impression that conservatives get sick, get
cancer, fall off ladders too, yet conservatives did not offer any substance or suggestions less tort reform, which helps the insurance companies
(imagine that) and fundamentally discharges a form of recourse for the individual.
Against everything unless it is a tax break for
Mega corporations and/and rich people.
For extending the bush tax cuts
Against the interests of
teachers
policemen
firemen
patients
students
fixed income seniors
pretty much anyone who does not meet the standards of; Mega corporation and/and rich people
is garbage. Union thugs, wealthfare queens, lazy no good useless Americans. Seniors get a job,
retards, cancer patients and teachers get a real job. It is not what is said, it is what is conveyed,
bad will has been invested in these last two years. Unfortunately the GOPs real beneficiaries make up
a very small portion of the electorate.
The GOP wants everyone to be cut, slashed, rolled back, unless you are a billionaire, Saudi Prince or fictitious entity. It is not like they proposed
cutting the lower tax rates, they could have... did they?
I think the message will be the "GOP is against everything and stands for tax cuts, for billionaires"
EVERY SINGLE SOLUTION is a way concentrate wealth, privatize social security, privatize medicare, privatize
student loans, privatize schools, privatize police, privatize regulation, privatize the elections.
YOU LIKE THE DIALOGUE? It's based on the Obamacare wonder
If I were a pro I would clean the GOP out, mop them up with my ads, I would apply the same will they have shelled out with glee.
The DEMS could catch a fire, but they will probably crap on their shoes and accidentally eat it
