was he/they* needed a boogie man

Russia filled the void

'CONs don't give a flying fuck for you or me


'They*' being those who actually were running things. the old man was just a face with a few lines of code that they'd trot out when needed. IMO

my fingers just needed some exercise

Reagan was the start of the down fall of this country. if he wasn't the start he was where the line took a sharp turn downward

They believed his rhetoric towards Russia.
Now they have turned 180° .

Reagan help speed up our decline with his tax plan, not enforcing anti trust law, and blowing holes in our social safety nets.
Voo Doo economics as Bush senior called it.

The only allegiance any of those kind of people have is to themselves. they'll turn on their own families if there is something in it for them.

and now we have the head of the class as or soon to be pResident. I don't see as how thats going to change either. I'm hoping that the EC will do what is right but in actuality there is no right to be had at this juncture. WE. ARE. FUCKED. AND. FUCKED. BUT. GOOD. again IMO

abortion
birth control
$15 minimum wage

If Russia is no problem, those things shouldn't be a problem either.

What's it going to be ???

The Republicans never get anything wrong.

Just trust them.

They are the party of family values.

Supply side economics has been a tremendous success.

Everything will be peaches as soon as those millionaires

and billionaires get their tax cuts.

Women didn't want control of their health and family planning choices.

Get with the program.
