This is what you vote for if you dont vote or vote for a republican, you are BEGGING them to take your Medicare, Medicaid and SS.

This is a fact, has been for 40 years or more, or since FDR actually.

Sure there was a time when the best racists were not republicans, but the government haters were always republicans.


(obviously the racists are now mostly republicans)


Oh, and if you vote 3rd party you are BEGGING them to take everything from you.

"Granny Starver" was a beneficiary of SS when his father died young, but now he says "I got mine, screw you!" He is truly despicable.

since he's "entitled" to it.. so if he thinks he is entitled to it, let's end it right there and join the rest of the world.

He already "borrowed" against his SS sufficiently, so now he'll have to work till he's 90 if he wants any payout.

Just as long as he's out of politics .... a Wal Mart greeter job might be suitable.... Or, I hear the meat-packing plants are hiring, he can chop chicken's heads off for a living.

Prospects don’t look good for his re-election, if he even runs. He’s got a very strong Dem opponent and a teabagger wanting to primary him.
