America is now on a decline, thanks to W |
|
Our standard of living is going down, our uninsured is going up, wages are on the decline. The only class to profit under W is the upper class. The rest of us are chopped liver. W had a Patrician upper class lifestyle with all its privileges.
He pandered to the ultra right even though he was far from their ideal. He pandered to the rich.
Goodbye America.

as long as there is breath in my body, I will not say goodbye to the country I love.
I'll fight to get it back on the right track.
Even if it kills me.

No government programs, (unemployment insurance, Social Security, medicare, FEMA, EPA, OSHA, etc.) or any help for the America people, it'll just keep people fighting for low paying jobs....Money and subsidies will only be for republican donating corporations & the republican wealthy. And plenty of money for the imperialistic military machine to steal other countries resources.
For the American people...Too bad...The country's bankrupt, the republicans stole our treasury!
It's what the republicans want and have been trying decades for!
It's republican ideology---No government help for people AND to destroy the "New Deal".

3. Our decline started long ago |
|
when the idiots elected ronny ray-gun. Clinton stopped the bleeding for a bit, but W re-opened the wound. I travel a lot, and it amazes me at how much the country has actually declined compared to other so called 3rd world countries.

4. Even longer than ray-gun. |
|
America's decline started on the path to self-destruction when John F Kennedy was assassinated.

5. PLEASE .... DONT blame it on George ! .... |
|
It is the whole damned CONSERVATIVE PHILOSOPHY ! ....
Things looked UP after Hoover was excised .....
Things STAYED UP since FDR began the New Deal ....
Things started going DOWN when Ronnie took office ....
Things are getting REALLY bad now that the assholes control all of government ....
It isnt George: Its the whole damned movement ....

8. EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT!!!!!! YES YOU ARE RIGHT!!! |
|
Yes! Forget Bush. He is less than 29 months away from retirement. A new monster will take his place. If Bush hadn't been such a dumbass, the reich wing would have rounding up the gays or atheists under the guise they are a 'security risk' and would help the terrorists.

I went to get my prescriptions today and there was a man there who had to be in his late 70's or older.He was trying to get his insulan and heart medicine and asked how much it would cost.The pharmicist said it will be over 200 dollars with the insurance. The man left with out his medicine as he didnt have enough money.If he goes without his insulin he could die and he said he would have to wait 2 weeks to get the money. So once again our great government and their screwed up prescription plan has done nothing for the senior citizen. I cant believe we spent billions on a fake war and we have so many people dying right here in this country.

9. Tax breaks for multi-millionaires - but no medication for an old man |
|
Yep - that's the republican way. "Why am I obligated to pay for YOUR medical care? If you can't pay for it, you should just die."
