Dorgan just declared his and Conrad's standing objections to proceeding until a deal/vote is made on benefits to drought-stricken farmers.

4. I'd title this thread: Republican tell farmers to die |
|
Really, what the hell are the rethug's problem.
The elections are over. Let the farmers get a tiny bit of relief.
I'd glad Conrad and Dorgan are doing this.

5. Family farms don't donate big bucks to repukes, |
|
Big agra does.
If a family farm goes bankrupt, ADM or Monsanto swoop in like vultures and buy the farm for pennies on the dollar.
Remember Farm-Aid ?

G-d, I HATE REPUKES. They are LIARS, CHEATERS and THIEVES!:grr:

Yes, the assholes tried to betray him. But it's good that he doesn't back down.
