What a load of crap. It was LIBERALS, and NOT conservatives, who have always pushed for higher workers' wages and better working conditions. It's been LIBERALS who have been calling for middle class tax cuts and tax hikes for the very richest 2%, who are the ones freezing workers' wages and exporting their jobs. And it's been LIBERALS, and NOT conservatives, who have pushed for and passed safety-net legislation like Social Security, Medicare, and even welfare. To make the crazy statements Anon made is ample proof of the lies and distortion viewers of Fox "News" get 24/7/366!Jack Jodellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02165430903903838990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502695489360674806.post-55471308807629494322010-09-22T01:35:44.227-05:002010-09-22T01:35:44.227-05:00Jack, thanks for stopping by.
Anon, you're ei...Jack, thanks for stopping by.<br /><br />Anon, you're either joking, or you're an example of what I'm describing here.<br /><br />If you want to see ad hominem attacks, watch Fox News and you'll hear one or two in about five minutes. Then they have the gall to call themselves "fair and balanced."<br /><br />And, you take a great deal for granted. I've been in the work force for 32-plus years and have financed more stupid, needless right-wing wars than I care to remember.<br /><br />I'm in the first generation of my family to get to go to college, and I had to work hard and go into debt to do it. I have two toes on my left foot, thanks to an industrial accident at one of those fancy jobs where I had to work to help pay my tuition. I drive a 1984 Ford F-150 pickup truck to work because it's still a good vehicle and I leave our "fancy" 2004 Honda for my wife to drive.<br /><br />And you are too idiotic to have any real idea of how this country was built. It was built largely by underpaid laborers like my grandfather, who was born with no chance in life but lived on anyway, working for what "the man" felt like he could deign to pay that day. It was also largely built by black slaves, who had their labor stolen from them at the end of bullwhips and pistols.<br /><br />Fools like you merely serve to illustrate my point.Manifesto Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06521151220297061304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502695489360674806.post-31621372527059787092010-09-21T18:49:28.074-05:002010-09-21T18:49:28.074-05:00re:

>&...re:<br />>>> Everyone I know who watches<br />>> Fox News consistently displays<br />> a certain glazing of the eyes<br /><br />Here, the Libs are once again making broad generalizations and resorting to ad-hominen attacks against their opponents.<br />The Libs are always attacking We the People, who work for a living and pay taxes.<br />The Libs think they're so superior, with their fancy college degrees, their trust funds and their fancy cars.<br />We the People will be taking back America in November.
