guys but not much to refute what you said, because it's hard to justify lifting the Ban on Offshore Drilling after promising to keep it in place. It's hard for them to explain these things, thus the little roly poly laughing guy.

Did he mention the TPP, or the Keystone Pipeline, how there is no way he will sign any bill that allows these two Republican dreams to come true?

Notice that at the top of the list are 'women' and 'gays'. What Liberal won't emotionally react to someone claiming to support those two issues, and yet, women still don't have equal pay for equal work, nor do I recall any talk of implementing it. Iraqi women HAD that BEFORE we invaded them. Can you believe that? Maybe that's WHY we invaded them, to end all those 'socialist' programs they had over there, free education, free Health Care, Women's ACTUAL right to get paid equally for the work they did.

American Privilege, ain't it grand? We don't understand how our privilege affects the lives of others, we may mean well, but we are just plain privileged, all of us and we take away rights from people, like the women in Iraq and we really, really think we are helping them. But that's privilege for you, isn't it? Never mind that some of us DO understand. Or do we? .... It's complicated, this privileged thing.
