Exactly. I hope the GOP keeps doing what they're doing. They'll never win another presidential election at this rate.

This is why these politicians are living on the tax payers and doing absolutely nothing in return.
You know damn well I am not talking about those people even though they are partly responsible for their problem. They forgot the rainy days "always" come. In other words they either bought more than they could afford and/or didn't save for the rainy day.

Then there are the breeders who are a drag on all Americans. Shall we go there?

They need to be undermined. They're doing a horrible job. Even when adjusted for poverty, they lag other countries' public school systems while spending the most.

The right to attend a public school is ingrained in the constitution of all states.
Being forced to be under-educated is in NO state's constitution.

Those same "breeders" that shouldn't have access to birth control, health insurance, abortions, and condoms?

I don't like politicians in general. But I certainly wouldn't vote for any politician who believes taking more from the American people (raising taxes) is the answer like Obama did. It's time they learn to balance a budget and cut back like every American has to.

And I will continue to focus on myself and my family to ensure our success and continue to vote Democrat and if and when a Republican (Huntsman or Jeb) make it past the primaries I may vote Repubican but until then....

No, they don't need to be undermined.

Why do you think public schools exist?

Strawman.

The Straw Man fallacy is committed when a person simply ignores a person's actual position and substitutes a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version of that position.

And how exactly are they oppressing poor Blacks any different from poor Whites. Because they damn sure not oppressing the me. So explain, how are Blacks oppressed by voting Democrat?

wow, you really bought the rhetoric

Access? You mean someone else paying for it
Health Insurance? You mean someone else paying for it.
Abortions? What's wrong with limits? I don't believe on killing the baby right before birth.
Condoms? You mean someone else pay for them.

Conservative believes that if you need to use these means, sure, but pay for them yourselves.

Democrats --> Pay for mine or you are taking away my access
