Waiting for the NRA to make a statement about protecting Americans right to carry bombs.

Because that's what I expect of the NRA now.

Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan were the leaders of the "Greed is Good" political movement...

in the 1980's enacting laws that gave companies tax breaks to relocate their businesses ultimately decimating domestic manufacturing and leading to the rise of outsourcing that we continue to suffer from today.
So when right wing idiots say "Corporations are people" and "Tax breaks for the rich trickle down" they are repeating the long sewn seeds of bullshit originally spewed by these two morons that they worship even though they fucked up two countries economies for decades.

About ZonkerHarris

Nixon was a fucking crook. As a teenager I marched on the UN in 1982 with a million other people demanding we get rid of the threat of nuclear weapons hanging over our heads. Since then I've worked to get Democrats elected like John Aristotle Phillips, known as the A-Bomb Kid when he ran for Congress against Stuart McKinney in CT in the 80's (we lost twice) through the Obama campaign in 2008 and 2012. I want to legalize cannabis, reform our prison for profit system, cut our military budget, get out of Afghanistan and push solar energy panels into every building in the USA.
