Title: The Most Important Political Article I've Read in Years
Post by: Teatownclown on March 26, 2011, 01:38:55 PM
Do you ever wonder why all these new republican governors march in lockstep to propose laws they never campaigned on? It is because corporate america owns them. This article explains why they get their way. They've been working towards this day since 1977. The tea party was the trojan horse, and now that they control state legislatures nationwide, they are jamming through their corporate wish list. "Defanged" unions deprive the democrats of troops. Next will come tort reform to deprive democrat funding lawyers of cash. Then its Katie bar the door.

Fortunately, the backlash has begun, but like Obama, they will do all they can jam through before the next election can swing the pendulum back.  We'll be lucky if there is any breathable air and drinkable water left....

So you admit that the unions own the Democratic party.

They don't own the party. But they do compose a critical mass. Besides, so what? Some political party must represent the hard working citizens of this country. Or would you prefer they not be included?

Here we go again. Only union members work hard.

No sir. You said that not me.

How about substituting the word "grunts" in there instead! :)

What was it President Obama said about opposition to his healthcare reform? "Elections have consequences". Indeed they do and the pendulum does swing both ways.
