there is very little doubt that the purpose of the new deal was to save the system, or that without the new deal a starving unemployed populace would have, eventually taken matters to the streets.

there was plenty of opposition to the new deal from the left within the dem party. huey long was among those who wanted…[Read more]

@ravensong great fdr quoteswhen that generation landed at d day and the pacific islands they knew that they were fighting for the 4 freedoms and the new deal.

that generation had to pass before these reactionaries, of both parties, could try to take that away.

@ohio barbarian thanks for the info. I don’t know much about this guy, and I really don’t care unless he starts catching on.

the reason that vultures like trump and bain are interested in the usa is the vast wealth represented by our common real estate.

urban real estate like post offices and military bases can be sold at auction for pennies on…[Read more]

I hope this works out for the dreamers. this is really no fault of their own,

i’m sure trump can find a few gangstas, but most are probably decent americans.

the people of bolivia love evo, but it was time to move on, and he should have allowed a sucessor to take up the cause.

I’ve been thinking of this quote from andrea lobo’s article

“In the context of a deepening crisis of global capitalism and a resurgence of the class struggle internationally, including recent mass strikes among miners and…[Read more]

+1. I hope I live to see her inauguration.

sardines and catnip tea for guatobella and all of her friends.

ever wonder how they do that?

it is worth thinking about, even in terms of “what could I do without?”

this election is life or death for Louisiana, and i’m afraid we are about to choose death.

this is a run off, and the regressive legislative supermajorities have already been elected. rispone claims to be a “job creating” businessman” and shows a lot of trump (and a lot of lies) in his 24/7 ads.

they do a good job of keeping the fingerprint data base. I think they should keep a dna database.

I think they are needed for interstate serial killers and bank robbers and such.

brutal dictators do seem to flock together.

pick either one and stick with it. do these people really think they can stop the earth’s rotation to suit their arbitrary schedules?

the hour is just a number. i think we should pick a time (gmt seems convenient) and standardize the entire world.

@cold mountain trail

trump cultists believe that they live in the best possible world where dear leader is cutting taxes and if they could only dispose of immigrants and libruls there would be high paying jobs for all real ‘murkins.

why trump will win.

they would rather lose to trump than win with a progressive.

dud they check dna on the body?

doesn’t matter. if you can break him out of federal prison you can change the dna in your data base.

no doubt being cute and blonde gets better response to GoFundMe.

u do not contribute to these things (no matter how cute) because so many are scams. even if the cute kid really does have cancer, how do I know the money is actually going to her care?

I agree with all of you but just a reminder that dick morris is a republican snake who advised bill Clinton on “triangulation” and probably introduced Lewinsky into her position.

i’m sure no one was booing “the office of president.” if the troll in chief wants to act like a dick he should be treated that way.

he wanted to turn a baseball game into a trump rally. boo hoo.

welcome to jpr @holland.

I share your distaste a the Koch sponsored constitutional convention. maybe that is what this bipartisan constitutional crisis is all about? have you seen their site? they are very close to reality……
