Never mind that Bush and the Repugs crashed the economy. It's been 8 years, and why haven't incomes recovered??? Could it be that our fearless leaders in the Democratic party are following a pro-free-trade, anti-union, neo-liberal, capitalist agenda not all that different from the evil Repugs? Sadly, this is exactly what's been happening. Which is why we want new leadership. We don't want more of the same Wall Street cronyism.  |
