Here's the DNC Platform Change Vote Video

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 ...

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 ...

She's a tad smarter than Palin and needs a job. NO, this does not belong on the politics board. I'm just being sarcastic. I check her out periodically because she's such a disaster. Not so much a has-been as a never-was. ...

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 ...

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! ...

15 MILLION PEOPLE STILL UNEMPLOYED !!! $800 BILLION "STIMULUS" FUNNELED BY A CORRUPT PRESIDENT TO UNION GOVERNEMNT EMPLOYEES RATHER THAN JOB CREATION. UNION GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES PROTESTING THE TAXPAYERS WHO FUND THEIR PAYCHECKS SO THEY CAN STILL RETIRE AT AGE 55 WHILE WE HAVE TO WORK NOW UNTIL AGE 70!!

"I won't have to worry about putting gas in my car. I won't have to worry about paying my mortgage. If I help him, he's going to help me." Peggy Joseph, Chicagoite, on the election of Obama. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P36x8rTb3jI Ken Rogulski reporting on WJR in Michigan, October 2009. ROGULSKI: Why are you here? WOMAN #1: To get some money. ROGULSKI: What kind of money? WOMAN #1: Obama money. ROGULSKI: Where's it coming f ...

I watched this film on HBO last weekend. Somebody obviously does not like Sarah Palin!!! They certainly made her to appear very ignorant and stubborn with campaign manager, Steve Schmidt. Evidently John McCain did not like they way they portrayed Palin on film either. He says he does not plan on viewing this film, as it is an assault on her character. I am certainly not a fan of Sarah Palin, but feel disturbed after watching this. This just tears her apart -- ...

Looks like contingency plans are being made for the nomination speech.... (See link) ...

People will say just about anything to get you to see things their way, but as it is said, the proof is in the pudding. When the actions are not congruent with the words, you know you've been fooled. The question is, do you learn and change, or do you fall into the same pit all over again? How do you spell integrity? Is manipulation love? ...

, January 19, 2013 Barack and Michelle Obama have spent more than a thousand days on display before the nation’s eyes, but the personal changes they have undergone can be hard to detect. Up close, though, those who know the Obamas say they can see an accumulation of small shifts in the president and the first lady since they walked the inaugural parade route four years ago. The man who wanted to change the nature of Washington now warns job candidates that it is hard to get any ...

Would be funny if she ended up on Fox! http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/soledad_headed_out_at_cnn_NGuo73hdisQIzTlt8EkkYM ...

Just seeing an article on TV where saying good to have children do chores around the house and rather than giving them money, to set certain prices for doing 1 chore as opposed to the other. Say the child feeds the dog, 25 cents a day or does dusting, 25 cents a day. Just wondering if any one here has done things this way instead of just a handout and if so, what did you set up and how did you work this. We are talking past the toddler set and before they leave home age. ...

This morning I attended a meeting at the hospital where I work regarding our 2014 benefits. Yes, I have insurance through my employer, and yes, I am happy with it, but imagine my surprise when I found out how much the cost of my coverage will increase for 2014 because we are self insured and our hospital was levied a fee of 1,000,000 dollars (yup, one million dollars) for fiscal 2014 to help fund the exchanges. Of course, guess who pays that? Yes, all of employees. so tha ...

This isn't a blame game, it's just for interest. ...

if everyone who posted on this board used the same name for each post. That way we would all know who we were responding to and wouldn't bother posting if it is in answer to someone with whom we have already reached an impass. ...

I was looking on some job sites and happened to come across "Internet Researcher" category. We're excellent at that! Most of them want on-site workers, but it's worth a shot to look in your area under this category. ...

I suppose some will think this belongs on the Faith Board, but it is also a political issue. I am so sick of hearing about climate change and all that we can do as human beings about it. These politicians should read their Bible; that is if they even own one, and they would soon discover that man did not create this world and man is not going to change what God made. There has been climate change since the beginning of time and just because we, who are now living in these times ...

I do not understand how living in a country with its democracy established over 200 years ago, and now, for the first time in history, suddenly we have one of our former presidents set up a group called "Organizing for Action" - (OFA). OFA - 30,000 strong working to disrupt everything that our current president is trying to do. This goes against our Democracy, it is an operation that will destroy our way of governing. It goes against our Constitution, our laws, and the processes establishe ...
