Summer all the luck to you. You need to have a good talk with your husband to take less of a job to help out. Communication is very important in the marriage.

Regardless what our indiviual founding father wrote, we are CONSTITUTIONAL REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY. Constitutional means no mob rule! Representative (i.e. a republic) represents state rights (hint: state rights only coming from the Republic potion; even states can violate our Constitution, actually historically they are the worse offender). Democracy is simply the process of choosing your representation without violating the Constitution. O...btw, capitalism and socialism do not define political process. You can have a capitalistic society under a dictatorship and socialist society under a democracy for you less informed conservatives.

Completely unnecessary.

Chromekitty said: pass it along to those who are unemployed or under-employed......
that makes a lot of sense.......
Corporate America is as corrupt as DC.


My response:

That is TRUE. It is called Fascism or Corporatism. It is the kind of society we've had ever since the Patriot Act was passed after 9/11. It is when the government elites collude with the corporate elites to take control of the majority of the population ..and thus far we've been letting them do it when, if the truth be told, the government is supposed to work for the people NOT the other way around.

By the way, BP was one of President Obama's largest campaign contributers. That explains why the president is letting BP run the show and get by with the weakest clean-up effort imaginable.

Sigh...you see my comment is not so unnecessary. Clearly, conservative can't get left or right straight. Fascism is far RIGHT, okay (hint: Hitler is a Fascist). Conservatism is right. I can bet you BP donates more to Bush than Obama. Heck most corporations donate equally to both parties. Last time I checked, it is the conservative Republican senator apologized to BP. :P If you are truly a lefty Populist, you should be a liberal or you are just confused.

Actually Fascism is far left government over regulated to the point of control of the private sector. Hitler was a socialist, Nazi is the national socialist party of Germany....

Maybe you should check the history of Fascism before speaking...let's say you don't trust wikipedia but find other source will also help....

"Scholars generally consider fascism to be on the far right of the conventional left-right political spectrum."

Yes, that's why fascism hates communist (which is far left; btw if you want to call Obama a Leninist than I might believe it)...if you read it carefully, they just like today's tea party people. Did I prove my point again? However, one good thing about America is that owning guns is not the sole right of the ring winger . This is almost comical.

Nazi were socialist, the word is literally the German acronym for National Socialist Party....

Scholars are generally wrong on so many points it isn't usually worth quoting them, they need to get out of the halls of academia and see how the real world works...

As for the Tea Party they want the government out of the way of business not controlling business.

Government control of private business is Fascism, government ownership of business is communism, two sides of the same coin in both the government runs business both of which are liberal views not conservative.

Well, you just won't admit you are wrong...so what's the full name of North Korea? Do you know how many dictatorships and authoritarians have words like "democratic" and "people's" in them...I am not quoting scholars...I just point out Fascist and Nazi are far right regardless of their names. Yea, of course, scholars are generally wrong and let's just let STUPID rule the world.

If you really want to talk about real life, here is a real life lesson to your tea party people listening to Glenn Beck.

imgur: The Simple Image Sharer

Soon you be broke and need to vent...

P.S. Scholars simply means someone who are knowledgeable and can think for themselves, some of them do have real world jobs.

P.P.S. Where is the tea party when Bush was passing all the crazy laws taking away our personal freedom, domestic spying, human rights (calling torture not torture etc.? Thanks to Bush this post is been monitored.

I don't listen to Glenn Beck.....

Yes many dictatorships do call themselves democratic and many of them were democratically elected by the people, back to the three wolves and a sheep deciding on dinner, that is why I do not support the idea of democracy because democracy is mob rule.....

Bush was a Republican not a conservative, he is a Neoconservative, look that one up on Wikipedia....

Fascists, Communists and other dictatorships all believe in BIG government running all aspects of your life that is not part of the conservative ideology, Conservatives believe in less government and more private enterprise.......

I was conservative long before there ever was a tea party, and I am sure that if the geezer and the trollop had been elected there wouldn't be one now...

One last thing, I have been broke before and guess what I didn't vent on the internet, I went out and got a job and worked my way out of it on my own......

Good for you, but venting on the internet does not mean the original poster won't work her way out. And yes Bush is a neocon, but majority of conservative voted for him (did you voted for him?). Stop pretending there is a big different between neocon and con (haha). Stop blaming Obama, neocon, con, and republicans controlled 3 branches of government from 2000 to 2006, two branches from 2000 to 2008, and see where we end up. Even today, it still control the judicial (yes, supreme court is currently controlled by conservative), and you conservative are crying judicial activism? You must be kidding.
