Just once I'd liike to hear a Democratic candidate call out the Republicans
Edited on Tue Apr-12-11 08:18 PM by Blue Meany
for their lack of patriotism. They've set up policies that encourage the depressing of American wages and the shipping of American jobs overseas; they facilitate the selling off of American resources to international corporations; they enable these corporations to avoid paying taxes in America but use the American military to defend their interests overseas. By disallowing a single-payer health care system and by allowing American infrastructure to crumble, they have made it impossible for American companies to compete effectively in the global market. By pushing a free-trade regimen, they have forced American workers to compete with slave-labor in other parts of the world. In short, they have sold the country out and are pushing hard to turn America into a third world country and to impoverish its citizens.

I hope to live to hear a politician call those who pushed these policies traitors and say it's time to have policies that benefit Americans again.

2. The truth would burn out TV screens Nationwide.
The Republicans and their policies are profoundly Anti-American.
