In reply to the discussion: The GOP Has So "F'ed" Everything Up In This Country It Seems Almost Hopeless [View all]TheMastersNemesis
(10,602 posts)I really hate to feel negative about the direction of things politically. It just seems like the GOP and RW'ingers still control the debate and conversation. When Obama started talking about the deficit and austerity he seemed to surrender to their terms.
The conversation should be about economic and social fairness. If that conversation is too communistic or socialistic so be it. Aggressively promote it rather than be defensive.
Push unionism and a second economic bill of rights, living wages, business responsibility, reasonable regulation, health care and jobs as a right etc. Push all the things that make for decent society. Brand the Republicans as a bunch of right wing, religious right wing racist and bigoted bastards for Christ's sake.
There is NO future where we are going and we will fail if we allow obstruction to continue.
