30. It just keeps coming. Billy-Bob Clinton dismantled the New Deal safeguard against

Oct 2014

the banks gambling with our money. In 2000 the Republicans stole the election and flipped off the Democrats in the process. The Democrats shrugged and collected their paychecks, happy they saved their parking spots. In 2002 Georgie Bush lied thru his teeth and still got the Democrats to kiss his behind and share responsibility for the deaths of many thousands of lives plus twist the knife in the back of our democracy.
In 2004, for the second time in a row, the Republicans stole the presidential election and once again the Democrats shrugged and turned away, I guess thinking it's all in the game.
In 2008 the American people got their hopes up for promised change. But the wealthy continue to grow wealthier while Democrats promote fracking, Free Trade, domestic spying and continuation of the 100 years Middle East War.
Now we are looking at the probability of another Clinton, another friend of Wall Street to rule in 2016.
America can't get a break.
