Blacks die early - should love SS privatization
Brought to you by none other than David Dreier. I wonder why he didn't mention gays? Hmmmmmmmmmm..

Hope this isn't a dupe. Haven't read all the posts today.

1. I heard him say that and was astounded.....Why would he not
be talking about finding out why blacks die earlier than whites and how to try to remedy the problem instead of thinking of it as a plus for those who want to privatize social security?....Amazing!

2. How about we extend life expectancy for black folks and keep SS
so that young black folks don't have to devote their lives to taking care of their grandparents and can instead devote their lives to building a career and making this nation stronger.

3. What about survivor benefits for the kids, Davey?
Oh, I forgot, Davey wants to open up the orphanages again!

4. Just wait: If anyone thinks the scapegoating will end with gay people,
Edited on Sun Dec-26-04 07:28 PM by iconoclastic cat
think again. As these evil GOP bastards become bolder and bolder, you will start to see some serious bigotry come to light. They want it acceptable again, but they also want to divide their targeted groups against one another.
