When 'undesirable' Jews were off-loaded from trains at Auschwitz, what did the Nazis tell them? "We are going to give you a shower." Watch what people do, not what they say.

Here's another example of conservatives behaving like Nazis. Conservatives want voters to show ID cards in order to vote. Conservatives want to secretly repeal the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Conservatives want to make it difficult for people with the 'wrong' skin color and/or the 'wrong' religion to vote. Of course conservatives will never, ever tell you what their true intentions are. Conservatives still do not accept President Obama's various birth certificates! Conservatives say to themselves, "we can always find some flaw (in our eyes) in their Identity card (a scratch, even) to inhibit undesirables from voting. Would conservatives ever fess up and say they want to suppress the undesirable vote. No!
I voted last November and all I got was this crummy Congress.

The 28th Amendment - Corporations are not people. They have none of the Constitutional rights of human beings. Corporations are not allowed to give money to any politician, directly or indirectly. No politician can raise over $100 from any person or entity. all elections must be publicly financed.
Republicans remind me of the Solomon Judgement - Republicans remind me of the woman who was standing before King Solomon in a custody suit with another woman [I Kings 3:16-28]. She would have rather seen the baby cut in two than see the real mother have it. In the same way Republicans would rather see the economy tank, thousands of people out of work and our communities destroyed as long as they can get the White House back. Care pointed out to Solomon who the real mother was and care and concern for our fellow citizens and the environment tell us who the real citizens are.

In fact, Reagan’s decision to continue the proxy war after the Soviets were willing to retreat played a direct role in Bin Laden’s ascendancy.

10. Ronald Reagan helped create the Taliban and Osama Bin Laden. Reagan fought a proxy war with the Soviet Union by training, arming, equipping, and funding Islamist mujahidin fighters in Afghanistan. Reagan funneled billions of dollars, along with top-secret intelligence and sophisticated weaponry to these fighters through the Pakistani intelligence service. The Talbian and Osama Bin Laden — a prominent mujahidin commander — emerged from these mujahidin groups Reagan helped create, and U.S. policy towards Pakistan remains strained because of the intelligence services’ close relations to these fighters.
