In reply to the discussion: What's happening tonight in Texas is proof positive there is a huge difference between Dems & Repubs [View all]BehindTheCurtain76
(112 posts)Always an agenda...first off their is very little difference between the two parties except on hot button issues which are used by the 1% to divide the people. Stop congratulating yourself so quickly. On abortion, gay rights, marijuana (not so much anymore), womens rights, workplace rights yes there is a difference and these are important issues but foreign policy, the police state, surveillance, banking etc there is almost no difference and when there is a little bit Dems still take a backseat as the B-Team. This may not always apply when it comes to average people and state legislatures are more of a reflection of average people than federal legislatures. The fact is that the democratic leadership has been hijacked at the highest levels and gets better as you trickle down the ladder. We have 2 million people in jail in this country and I'd like people to do something about that. The problem is the money because people get bought off as they rise to the top echelons and now that NSA has every single email and phone call recorded as has now been admitted they can blackmail any politician or judge to do their bidding. Google Montague Norman quotes from the 1920s and you will get where Im coming from. I 100% support these Dems in Texas and I think they should storm the bastille and put an end to this disgrace.
