I'm not talking about 2 or 4 years I am talking about from now on. Without the unions, the only big money backer the Democrats have, only Republican candidates will have the money to win elections. So, I repeat my question.

Would a one party rule in this country make you happy?

lots of rich libertines support the dems-hence the hollyweird coke snorters and wife swappers are big dem funders

so do most rich Jews who have traditionally voted dem

Rachel Maddow made an excellent point on her show the other night. If Republicans can remove unions from the picture, they remove the only large donors the Democrats have. All of the corporations overwhelmingly support the GOP. With Unions out of the picture, all of the big money influencing elections will be by corporations.

Anyone up for one party rule? I'm sure that's worked out fine when its been used in the past, right?

sounds like the hysterical left wing crap that comes from Madcow.

the trial lawyers give the dems huge amounts of money

so do the "artists"

All the big money corporations overwhelmingly support GOP Candidates. The only big money donor for the Democrats are the unions. If the unions are busted, Democrats will not have enough money to win elections.

you are not being truthful

all we have to do is look at where Obama got lots of money

Goldman Sachs is hardly a union

and If dems cannot win elections==

SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM

I think private companies should have the absolute right to fire anyone who belongs to a union

if the union can win so be it

but there should be no laws protecting unions in private businesses

and public unions have no validity whatsoever

No alternative party is going to start at the national level, it has to begin at the grass roots and grow from there. The two major political parties are too entrenched.

You are missing the point. A new party has already "started". It's been around for quite some time. It is simply a question of being revealed at the proper time.

Which one party regimes were your favorites throughout history?

Certainly not the past two years. The only time I recall the GOP controlling the two branches of the govt. was 2003-2006 and yes, I will take those economic results.

What results?

Why don't you go to the non partisan bls.gov, bea.gov, and U.S. treasury to find out. It is quite different than the crap the left is feeding you. 9 million jobs created, strong economic growth of almost 5 trillion dollars. Contrary to what you have been told, right?
 
Catawba said:
That is exactly the big issue. Thank you for making it again here. The unions are the only big money supporter of the Democrats. If they can be busted that leaves one party with all the big money donors.

Everyone good with one party running the government?

I seem to recall a time when democrats downplayed the influence Unions had on elections. Now they think they can't survive without them.

Don't let the facts get in your way. From Pew Research on the last presidential election



The modern GOP is a white persons game. And if you have not read the latest demographic projections for the near future, that is a vanishing breed that could be a minority in less than forty years.

Why is the left so obsessed with skin color?

Because it's your point. You do it. And don't put words into my mouth. You conveniently left out that there was an economic crash just after that as well. You're going to give them credit for the good and not the bad? Go figure.

The economic crash was with the democrats in charge of Congress in 2008 or did you forget. I was asked when the Republicans controlled both the WH and the Congress and that is the only time I recall. The results were pretty damn good. Democrats took Congress in 2007
 
LookingGlass said:
It's the same no matter what side of the fence one finds oneself. The Dems were right as rain as long as they had all the Congress and the WH. It is sort of like free speech. Everyone is in favor of free speech as long it is the speech they want to hear.

I strongly disagree. I think most conservatives want free speech for all and would fight for it. Ever notice you don't see the call to boycott liberal talkers, like you do boycotts of Fox, Glenn Beck, Limbaugh.....?

even David Broder noted that with the fall of the soviet union, american liberals turned their efforts from worshipping the soviets to Balkanizing the USA into warring ethnic groups

And they caused it to happen in one year? Wow, democrats are fast! Get real. The crash happened from years of trading, repackaging of bad derivatives (that had been disguised so well that the traders bought them back).

This crash was a deadly combination of overregulation and deregulation by both parties over many years. By your logic Clinton and the liberals must have been economic geniuses.

The socialist party? If that's what you're talking about they've been revealing themselves and they will be defeated.

Are you still pushing this line of bull****? The crash was caused by deregulation and regulators not minding the store. And yes the super rich speculating -- not much different than the '29 crash. Wall Street casino gambling...

Geez the socialists have been around since the mid 1800s. So no you are mistaken.

Is that so? Tell that to the publishers of adult literature and grind metal bands.
 
Wis. Law Enforcement Association 'Regrets' Endorsing Walker - Politics News Story - WISC Madison

"In a post dated Feb. 16, Tracy Fuller writes, "I am going to make an effort to speak for myself, and every member of the Wisconsin State Patrol when I say this … I specifically regret the endorsement of the Wisconsin Trooper's Association for Gov. Scott Walker. I regret the governor's decision to 'endorse' the troopers and inspectors of the Wisconsin State Patrol. I regret being the recipient of any of the perceived benefits provided by the governor's anointing. I think everyone's job and career is just as significant as the others. Everyone's family is just as valuable as mine or any other persons, especially mine. Everyone's needs are just as valuable. We are all great people!!" The full statement can be found at www.wlea.org."​
