Republican's had a great week!
They are against, blocked or stopped:

1 Women from receiving equal pay for equal work

2 Two million American's getting continued unemployment benefits.


In addition they believe those make 250k a year should get a continued Tax Break and that the 30 Million getting Health care should give it up while they keep theirs.

So why are these cretin still winning elections?


WTF?

2. Is anyone watching network news? How is this being reported?
This is going to push lots of people (Republican and Democrat) over the edge.

It's every bit as bad as Newt's, "The Gingrich Who Stole Christmas"

3. They are so blatantly wrong on every account that it boggles the mind.
I feel as if I'm living in some alternate reality universe.

Is it just me?

5. Actually that IS a good week for them
They succeed in their obstruction and get away with it.

Sadly, a win for them.

6. Because the people in this country are idiots
Look for Falin' Palin in 2012. The Mayans were right.

10. H.L. Mencken was right (re: Palin)
Edited on Mon Nov-22-10 10:05 AM by AlinPA
HL Mencken:

"As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely,
the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal.
On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's
desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

7. And it's all Obama's fault...!
We need to all stay away from the voting booth in 2012. That'll show 'em!

:sarcasm:
