He’s right. The Wisconsin Assembly voted to take the rights from public workers in that state at 1:17 AM this morning. Dear Leader might be a lying snake, but he knows the truth about bad legislation when he sees it.
The jerkward in this instance is from Iowa and wants a trail line between Chicago and at least Iowa City. But he voted AGAINST a bill that would fund that line because he’d rather waste money on billionaire tax cuts and giving freebies to oil companies than to invest in our nation’s infrastructure.
He still says he wants the train line though. He just doesn’t have the spine to vote for it himself.
Typical Republican. Can’t stand up for his constituents. Won’t fight the wars they want to start. Won’t pay for any program they push, not even when it’s cash they have to put up in hard times to be paid back later. Just won’t help Americans.
I say they fund the line and run the damn this up to the Mississippi River. Iowa seems thrilled to keep bigots like Steve King, support backstabbers like Grassley, and return Terry Branstad and his murdering kid to power. Not to mention this asshat. Let ’em suffer, it’s what they apparently want.
Cracker White Texas is turning Tortilla Brown. There is no way around this. The numbers do not lie. It should be an interesting – and potentially violent and repressive – change in the coming years. Racist Aryzona is already starting the reactionary showdown.
The GOP really needs to address their racist policies and supporters head on lest they become a permanent pariah party. Granted, they’ve been bigots for so long, there really isn’t a damn thing they can do to earn *my* vote, but for the good of the country we need more sane, rational, and respectful voices in our public discourse and, currently, they aren’t doing a damn bit of any of that. The racial-tinged hatred isn’t helping either.
If you believe in freedom and democracy in the United States (and even if you are a Republican and don’t), give the following a listen. Abbreviated transcript here.
A liberal blogger recorded this on Skype. He swears it is true and David Korn over at Mother Jones says the governor’s office confirms it. More confirmation here.
One of the points by “Fake David Koch” was to get Walker to agree to infiltrating the union protesters with violent plants to cause trouble. Walker, who already thought of this and for the moment rejected it, demurs.
Guess I was never wrong calling them Talibangelicals, was I?
In Indiana, a Deputy Attorney General there wants to use live ammunition on the protesters.
Such “compassionate” conservatives these are.
But let’s be honest here. These folks would NOT be in power if voters would pay attention to what they are voting for, and the programs the cretins running are to pass.
Legislation pending in Georgia would make it a crime to have a miscarriage. Not just any old crime either, a charge potentially punishable by death.
Any family who has had to deal with a miscarriage can attest to how painful it is. To have some Talibangelical bureaucrat play religious police and haul your wife off to prison to be executed? Yeah, that just doesn’t belong in America. Ever.
