1.) End corporate regulation2.) End corporate taxation, while raising the taxes of people who earn less than $100,000 a year3.) End Medicare, Medicaid, and any government subsidies for healthcare. You either pay outrageous rates for insurance, or pay directly, out of pocket, for healthcare that is the most expensive in the world.....or you don't get healthcare.4.) Education is only for the wealthiest Americans.5.) Don't raise the minimum wage....abolish it. The masses should accept wha ...

Income and wealth inequality: In the United States today we have the most unequal wealth and income distribution of any major country on earth -- worse than at any time since the 1920s. This is an economy that must be changed in fundamental ways. Jobs and income: In my view, we need a massive federal jobs program which puts millions of our people back to work. We must end our disastrous trade policies. We need to raise the minimum wage to a living wage. And we have to fight for pay equity ...

This is a bold strategy indeed for the party creed rollout….a candidate disclaimer stating they are not bound to abide by party principles. I guess it’s a handy escape hatch for a nominee who HAS no core beliefs. See, the party wants to run on the personhood plank, but they just don’t want to damage their candidates’ future political careers too much by making them say it out loud, in case they need to recycle the VEEP candidate in 2016. That Reinc ...

They're putting back the language of "Jerusalem is, and always will be, the capital of Israel" and the phrases using "God" that were in the 2008 campaign but were taken out in this year's campaign (and Durbin flew off the handle about yesterday). Hmmmmmmmm. Wonder why? Could it be they got too much flak over it??? ...

...will use 200,000 board feet of lumber, enough to build approximately 13 average-size family homes. Sure, he's the president, but this is really overkill. http://www.goskagit.com/all_access/platform-for-a-presidency/article_8f7d6f0a-4aae-5ea3-ad3c-37932867a97e.html ...

The GOP's 2008 platform's statement on climate change said, "common sense dictates that the United States should take measured and reasonable steps today to reduce any impact on the environment. " March backwards to 2012 and we have...no statement on climate change at all, much less applying good sense to it. Quite the contrary, as in commercial concerns such as "take quick action to prohibit the EPA from moving forward with new greenhouse gas regulations.”&n ...

This article from the Washington Post is easy reading, very interesting, not offensive to anyone, and gives a quick historic overview through our lifetimes. As it says, "What it means to be a Republican has changed enormously over the past half-century." The platforms of 1980 and 1992 are the biggies, the big "pivot points." The watershed platform of 1980 introduces tax cuts and an increasingly critical attitude toward government. “The Republican Party declares war on governm ...

I think there can be only one word for this - "Wow" or maybe "hmmmm" or maybe "we told you so" (oops, nope that's four words) LOL http://a4cgr.wordpress.com/2012/04/07/09-566/ If you don't like the link, Google it and take your pic (and Google is inundated with more left favorable links than right) ...

Extend minimum wage; Protect Social Security; Assure equal pay for equal work regardless of sex; Improve the unemployment benefit system so it covers more people; Strengthen labor laws so workers can more easily join a union; In 1956 Republican action created the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. My how the republicans party has changed! ...

I know, I know, it's an "old" video (from 2007). It took me a couple of days to find it. When I first saw it in 2007, I was quite impressed with this woman, not even knowing about her health battles. No matter your politics, this woman is a class act. http://www.myspace.com/video/mitt-romney/the-decision/16602414 ...

what Dukakis was to the Democrats in the 80s. Couldn't find anybody better to run and embarrassing to watch. Oh, and they were both Govenors of Massachusetts ...

considered for the vice presidency in 2008 he released 23 years of tax returns to GOP nominee John McCain? Now he wants us only to see 1 year, and maybe 2011 in the fall? What is he hiding? Me thinks he may be hiding very damning and embarrassing info that he does not want us the voting public to know. ...

This is just priceless. ...

My husband and his friends at work discuss politics at lunch, probably not with as little respect for each other as is sometimes shown on this board, but nonetheless that's a topic for another post. Yesterday, a lady who has been one of Obama's most ardent supporters, usually saying she just cannot support Romney because he is rich and cannot identify with her, told them of an incident she had witnessed that morning. She said a young man walked off his job and said ...

when everytime he says something his people have to walk it back? To misspeak is one thing but to tell so many lies he can't remember what his position is from one day to the next is beyond belief. ...

romney and outsourcing to china ...

47%. Blacks, Hispanics, gays, women who want abortions and free birth control, will never vote for him. They continue to want their free stuff. All I can say, is we better get to work, guys, we've got a lot of extra mouths to feed. ...

Remember this? Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne told reporters yesterday that the company plans to build more Jeeps in China. The Detroit News reports: “As part of our global expansion of the Jeep brand, there are some cars — that because of the price position in the market — can never be made in the U.S. and exported,” Marchionne told reporters on the sidelines of the North American International Auto Show. “We’re going to be announcing the first step in the globalization of Je ...

Posted earlier today or last dark time that one of the Romney's daddy or Jr donated an entire fortune to college education. I did not verify the information. But I do think that was an extraordinarily snobby thing to do. I guess he thinks everyone should be remade over in his image. That might not be so bad because he is handsome. Dont be fooled by his slick appearance. He is nice man to his family, but must be a snob. What he did to those people in the companie ...

Is his wife allowed to speak in public? I have never heard her say a word. the second question is will Willard forbid the Mormons from posthumously baptizing Jewish people into Mormon faith when he is president? Seems like that might irk some people in NY, FL and Oklahoma. ...

gem. He made fun of the inexpensive raingear the Nascar fans were wearing. Smart, real smart. ...

regarding job creation? I have heard the now debunked "less taxes and less regulations for the wealthy WILL create jobs" myth. Anything else? Do you think he is waiting until he is up against Obama to put forth plans? ...

Media massagers out in full force transforming Mittens into a hero for kicking middle class to the curb and walking off with millions. The fact that a fella born into luxury and spent entire life enriching self at expense of others says it all. When one is born into wealth, there is the luxury of choice - to protect wealth and accumulate more or to improve life for others. Mittens clearly chose the former. He has spent his life in lovely homes specifically located to s ...

Imagining the reaction to her "I know what it means to struggle" remark if Democrats acted like Republicans Ann Romney (Credit: Reuters/Jeff Haynes) Nicely played, GOP. Mitt Romney’s “I know you are, but what am I?” strategy, declaring President Obama the real perpetrator of a “war on women,” got an assist from CNN Democratic analyst Hilary Rosen Wednesday, when she questioned whether Romney should use his wife, Ann, as his expert on women’s issues when ...

48 to 43 is pretty close. In a poll registered voters were asked if election was held today who would you vote for. 48 Romney and 43 for Obama. What this says is it's very close and it still gives me hope that the Romney haters don't outweigh the ones who have a clear mind and will vote based on what is best for the country. So all the haters can spin all they want. Reading so many posts below I had to take what was posted and go research for myself and found out that most of wh ...

Youtube of Romney goals at the convention. ...

He truly seems like a very, very loving family man. He seemed much more humanized to me tonight than he's been before. I even thought there was a moment during his speech when he was on the verge of crying, which, to me, was genuine. I think it hurt him that the nice video introduction was later followed by Clint Eastwood's appearance....that part will make a lot of people forget what they just watched on the video montage! Mitt Romney has a lov ...

How about a Romney-Gosselin platform.

Never thought of it, but... - (S/M)

Sure you could, with all that TV money, freebies - L&L
