Hillary is on the warpath, day by day and week by week

She has purpose, conviction, method

and she's standing up for normal Americans' values

It's not enough to let the GOP go looney

She'll be against it so she can get primary votes, then Obama will approve it
so she doesn't have to deal with the problem in a general election.

Politics solves all!

Not that I'm happy with that, but I'm cynical enough to see it happen.

And you are calling them all psychopaths. That's a cheap explanation for their right-wing politics. An enormous oversimplification, which does nothing to understand and defeat them.

and they firmly believe in a scorched earth policy. their twisted way or the highway.

what a perverted and grotesque distortion of its former self the gop has become. when lindsey graham starts sounding like a reasonable guy you might like, you know the trumps and cruzs have had too much influence

rip, gop

They have no shame left in them. The list of things for which they should hang their heads is essentially endless.

more people, babies and children 'customers' for their "for profit" businesses.

That means billions & billions more Federal and State taxpayer dollars to the 'for profit' businesses, to feed, educate and provide healthcare to those who can't afford it.

Our healthcare, welfare, food stamp, wars and prisons should ALL be non-profit.
