So, which side that's controlled by ideological zealots is going nuts these days? So, how many crazy left wing women are going to directly participate in the war that they start with America? You are now in very dangerous territory and we won't be fighting over slavery this time. We'll be fighting over a country vs a foreign regime that you either f-d up and elected or wanted. I can tell you this, the Left is going to lose and the Democratic side is going to be destroyed in the process.
The GOP has certainly continued it's rightward trend, and that's saying something considering how far right the party is already. The Dems are moving left, but, as I pointed out on another thread, they are still to the right of center in contrast to other left parties in the advanced world. And let's get real. The warrior class is on the right -- male and female. Just look at the idiots in Michigan as a prime example.
I fail to understand the cowardice of the chest-thumping Right, when they are only out in public when armed to the teeth. Are we really all that scary? BOO!
Indeed so. BOO to you, Classic Xer!
I think Biden is getting real. Real enough, long enough? We will see. I think getting the minimum wage through is essential. A bad report by an official agency went with the reactionary myth that it costs jobs. What jobs? Jobs that don't pay virtually anything? No, raising wages will put more money in peoples' pockets so they can buy more and keep businesses that have raised wages going! Why don't people get that? It's not that hard. But the Republicans today put down people who think and see beyond the establishment line and call them the elite! Then they vote for the real elite every time!
