We should be agreeing with conservatives...
PBS not balanced? I too am concerned about fairness in the media. You are correct o Senator Redstate. A return to the fairness doctrine would be neato, lets go.

No affirmative action in college admissions? Absolutely. Lets institute completely blind admissions. Any college getting federal money will give each applicant a number for application. No last name, no picture, just grades, extra curricular activities, not even the name of the high school since this could be very prejudicial (we wouldn't want any Eaton grads excluded because some weak kneed liberal wanted to force feed public school kids onto the campus).

Social Security is in crisis? Yes, lets find a way to greatly increase benefits for the elderly so that they have more to invest. And if wages go up then payroll taxes will also go up so thanks for bringing up the minimum wage.

See, we're not mean and obstructionist. We are bi partisan.

1. These are exactly the tactics that Republicans have used to...
tie the Democrats in knots. Sounds good to me.
