2. Republicans

Wrong on Social Policy (stay the fuck out of our bedrooms! And keep your fundie religion out of our government!)

Wrong on Foreign Policy (Preemptive War, especially against someone that didn't sponsor the terrorists that attacked us, is stupid. Torturing people to get confessions of their "crimes" is the way to become the most hated nation on earth!)

Wrong on Economic Policy ( De-regulation and Privatization led to the most massive corruption on record and the breaking of the American Economy)

Wrong on Government Policy (Telling both government workers and the American people that "Government is the problem, not the answer" can only lead to disasters like Katrina. Putting cronies in charge of everything only causes those who were competent loyal government servants to leave.)

Republicans. Wrong on Everything. Wrong wrong wrong wrong, wrong wrong wrong Wrong!

6. Cure for economy coming soon, I need DU's help!!

I am writing a book on the political economy that I will need to distribute to social justice organizations as well as other liberals. It will be written in a way that the general public understand. We have to get on the same page here and contact our representatives. It will provide answers, strategies, and techniques. Spread the word, 3 months away. Attempting to get it done by Jan 20th.

7. She is such an amazing communicator. And she's brilliant. But it is how she explains

things that really makes her gel.

8. She needs to put the cap back on the water

just saying

She is proposing stuff that gets court records mysteriously unsealed (Ritter) and Ukranians poisoned

9. The utter stupidity of the "trust me" approach that Greenspan and other

neo-cons pushed is that, hey, if they are trustworthy then they won't mind us looking at their books to see what they are doing with our money.
