You folks who cry out for less gov

Have lots of gov programs you love:
You think Medicare’s great

And you’re quick to unload
When your bridges corrode.
Please wake up — don’t be Tea Party tools.

Dec 9

This is the House’s pathetically laughable idea of a jobs bill.

While the Tea Partiers kowtow to their corporate backers and cozy up to ideological lunacy, the economy continues to teeter on a precipice. It’s immoral and unconscionable for these jackals to play politics and unrelentingly adhere to their crackpot ideology while unemployment levels are so high….

“This notion of cuts as somehow being the “medicine” for our economy is exactly the WRONG medicine for a sick economy. Actually the kinds of cuts that the Republicans propose will INCREASE unemployment, NOT reduce it. They are proposing things that are going to make the economy worse in the hopes that they will defeat Barack Obama.”

“When Bernie Sanders gave his all day filibuster against giving tax breaks to the wealthiest 2% of our country… where were they? I saw a blip that mentioned it in passing.
