Well, not for nothing, but your posting history makes it quite clear that the voices in your head and the neighbor's dog are telling you all manner of horror about Republicans. We get it. And absent fact, you'll latch onto fiction to help preach your anti-GOP message. Okie doke.

I would not be so Anti-GOP if they actually support things which help the American People. But they continually want to take away what helps drive this country and supports many things in this country.
I've spoken of these variable in many post. If they stop attacking the government and its programs, stop fighting regulatory governance and learn that progress is a element of many factors that must be worked with. We can't go backwards, and Austerity is not the answer. Those are some of the things I have issue with as to Republicans. I don't think they are all of some racist nature, but they too often play to the racist issue as a vote getting tool, and in doing so it feeds the negative groups that are with racist ideals, to think the whole party supports that madness. Then the part won't stand up and declare itself as a non racist playmaker, they let it stand as it come across. This is in no way good for the Party nor the Nation.
There are some thing Republican push which I support whole and fully, and that is working on methods of accountability within the individuals. But we have to make pathways for people to be able to support individual accountability. We have areas of massive black populations that have no job centers, no industrial complexes, and when poverty strikes it rolls like a bulldozer pushing a pile of tumble weeds, it picks up everything in its pathway. This very same is true in the dire poor whites areas, be it in the confines of cities or out in the sectors of countryside, to the once upon a time, mining towns, the once upon a time mill towns and small town that hang on by a thread.
Now, those are issues I would like to see the GOP embrace and work to change ina meaningful manner, and you can't do that buy starting out to cut benefits and deny service, and this craziness about trying to dismantle health care. If anything, take it a move it forward by adding in the fixes that make it improve.
Actually, the world we live it, what people are facing and condition that continue to
impact the lives of American....the Humorist Article, just say's what John and Mitch have been doing all along, "fighting against improving life in American for Americans. That's what makes the title so alluring to post as a subject to provoke even more discussions.
Why would it take satire about immigration to push the point to the front? Maybe that is the questions some of you could be asking? Rather than tripping because I tied it to the current and realism of what conditions people are facing as well as what this nation is facing.
We have many places that have very challenged living conditions, EXCEPT for the well to do and the wealthy?
Go look at some of the threads talking about the low rate of wages across the nations, look at the people complaining when jobs numbers are posted, who then agree with what I wrote. When they say, many jobs are "low wage clerk like jobs" !!!!
We have the political satire shows fill the air waves nightly and they are certainly not suffering any level of rating slump. That means the people get it!!! it gives them a means to engage about the subject matter.
Ask some question? When companies are making ASTRONOMICALLY HIGH PROFITS:
Do we see many new factories going up? Do we see many jobs where the people who paid for their degree can work with progressive wages? Do we see any moves to revitalize any of our old mill towns, do we see any movenment to even focus on investing in our farm lands to help young people learn the value of farming and what it means to our food supply chain. ( Do we know many of our foods come from Foreign Locations, South of the Border and much comes even from across the Oceans) Now how is that possible, to sustain us in the long term? We don't ask these questions. We don't concern ourselves with why are we importing more clothes than we produce on our own shores. Where were the shoes you are wearing made? Have you ever owned a pair of shoes made in America?
Have you owned a TV or any Major Appliance Made in American in the last 10 or so years? We need to begin to ask why?
We need to ask, IS AMERICAN BEING MADE UNLIVABLE ? We buy a product we now have to replace much of it every 3-6 months if we actually put any usuage time in dealing with it. WHY?
As to the Immigrants, I don't know how the problem can be fixed, Its not possible to send them all back, and it's not possible to keep letting more flood in. If anything, HIRE BORDER GUARDS AND HIRE ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY DO THE JOB.
I think first thing we should do is, find out where the people are from, and send their country a bill of expense it has cost us to service them. I think for all illegals in detention centers should send the expense cost to the governement of those people. If they don't pay, we cut that amount of aid and then we began to cut their imports by what ever % they don't pay.
We've done enough to make American Cities Unlivable for the poor whites, minorities and women, already and just as I said, go all the way back to the days of Nixon. Many of you might not remember, but that is when Bread went from 30 cent to 60 cent and everything began spiking upwards in cost and the outsourcing of jobs took on a life of its own. By the time Reagain got in and did his thing with the ATC ( Air Traffice Controllers), the nations economy went down, and the union busting ramped up.
No longer was there such things as finding good jobs with high school anything, most of those jobs were wiped out by this time.
We are now a society with Wealthy Enclaves, well protected, we have the massive volume of gated communities, and what happends in the open span of cities? Services are reduced and infrastructure needs go unmet.
Now, tell me how Satire did not paint a picture that matches with the current reality and maybe that of the future.
As an end note: I wish the Republican Would Do some good things for the people and this country, I wish they would pass bills that meet the humane concerns and we become a nation as willing to help our own people, as we grandstand about helping other nations.
One thing I give to the Repulican without questions. They stick together even if their cause and premise is wrongly directed, they stick together on it. Sadly, their premise and cause is wrongly directed in this vile attack against the president, but what they have as a strong suit is, their sticking together.
I'm all for sticking together for any organization, but first and foremost let the agenda and premise and cause be for just and fair things for American people. Also be a party that even though it sticks together, be willing, motivated and with promoted effort to be inclusive minded.
