Obama’s for U.S. workers
I can’t believe how many people are upset with our president. You’d think that the world was full of rich millionaires. Why else would these people talk badly about a guy who has their best interest at heart?
I read the other day about a man blaming President Barack Obama for food stamp recipients going up from 26 million to 46 million. Anyone with a knowledge of the facts would know that this is because of former President George W. Bush, and his ruining our economy. He got us into two wars that we couldn’t afford and gave all his rich friends tax breaks.
If people would check the causes of the Great Depression, they would find that income inequality was one of the major causes. Because of this fact, President Franklin Roosevelt and Congress raised taxes back up to what they were before the Republican Presidents Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge and tax cuts of 1921, 1924 and 1926, leading to the Great Depression.
If we don’t want another Great Depression, we should re-elect the man who is working for the working man. President Ronald Reagan’s “trickle down” policy did not work, and never will.
A strong middle class is what a country needs to prosper. The only thing that has trickled down in the last 30 years came from Mitt Romney’s dog.
Let’s vote all Republicans out of Congress, and get this country back on track. We need 10 more tax brackets for income over $1 million, $2 million, $3 million, $4 million and $10 million.
Nope. Never.
Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana remained in "critical" condition Wednesday night after sustaining a gunshot wound to the left hip when a gunman opened fire on Congress members and staff attending baseball practice earlier in the day."The bullet travelled across his pelvis, fracturing bones, injuring internal organs, and causing severe bleeding," read a statement from the MedStar Washington Hospital Center. "He underwent immediate surgery, and an additional procedure to stop bleeding.
The hospital said Scalise had received "multiple units of blood transfusion."

Deepest and sincere thanks to the LORD that Rand is not lying at death's door as well.
People on the right NEVER as a group say a person on the left deserve violence because of a political disagreement. A large percentage of the left does think people who oppose socialized medicine, minimum wage hikes, school lunches, taking guns away, etc are monsters who "get what is coming to them and hopefully will correct their evil ways."
No, I'm not gonna go there either, because there have been plenty of examples of it from 'our side' as well, as our resident contrarian has already quickly pointed out. A search on this board alone, could pull up a thousand or more examples.
You alluded to the "moral high ground" that we do possess however.
"We", very loosely defined as the "liberty movement", see force used as needed to defend yourself, or to stop government from running roughshod over your life, liberty or property, as justified, and I for one, see it as being very necessary when the times call for it, as they do now.
Our enemies, very loosely defined as the "progressive movement", use force to achieve compliance with their wishes, mandates, fatwas and edicts, against your will.
If someone dropped off Nancy Pelosi at my door in shrinkwrap, I don't think I could follow through, unless I was given a horrific piece of evidence in the Pizzagate realm.
