Now they want to deregulate the corporations again so the fat cats can get fatter.

Just watch your local library close, fire department disappear, schools close, bridges collapse.

Solution? They will push to invade Iran.

I say we give them a really rough ride while in office - President Obama should not work with them.

1. I agree with you. Now, tell it to President Obama.
I don't think he's listening...

Not to us, anyway.

The American Fascist Party should not be worked with, they should be ousted.

7. My town is raising taxes 13% laying off 6 employees,, hasn't replaced
any cops and will be losing 2 more and has bought one new police car in the last 2yrs. ITs all Repuked ruled too. The taxes were cut from a 36% increase. The Volunteer fire companies are hurting beyond belief in recruiting. The neighboring city is laying off 12 fireman which will strain resources that really don't exist. Things are bad & they won't give up a raise or promise to stop the PORK. :wtf:

10. Saw a clip of Boehner today
he was basically stating that the Nov 2 victory was "the people" demanding the Bush tax cuts be made permanent. Next order of business? Dismantling Wall Street reform.

They're going to rule just like they did last time but only worse. They owe their masters big time for the money spent in the midterms.

11. And it's only possible to do that in their new faux-reality.
Faux viewers wont give a crap, and when their town bridge collapses Faux will tell them to blame Obama.
