Does Bush have any public support on the asbestos lawsuit issue?
Are Republicans on Republican message-boards all excited at the idea of people who got cancer from asbestos being unable to sue?

6. I think it all comes back to the fact that the
corporations now have more rights than people.

8. Of course you are right...
...but why did we allow this to happen. I came of age at the beginning of the Reagan reign of terror, I have never understood how/why people would vote against their own self interest (and often against their own core values: social justice...)in order to support (or oppose) an emotional peripheral issue.

Why would a reasonably strong middle class support a fascist agenda?

7. They threatened the repubs with loosing their jobs. They probably
threatened the Dems with their lives or threaten to call them unpatriotic on TV.
