How The GOP Went Back To The 1950s In Just One Day

[Stephanie]

The '50s were a great time in America.

It's no wonder they want to go back.

They sure were.....Happy days

When blacks knew their place, gays hid in closets, women stayed at home where they belong and sexuality was properly repressed

good grief..

I wish they were back in the 50's. At least they were 'somewhat' moderate. Even though moderate and conservative are antonyms.


"Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home--but not for housing. They are strong for labor--but they are stronger for restricting labor's rights. They favor minimum wage--the smaller the minimum wage the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all--but they won't spend money for teachers or for schools. They approve of social security benefits-so much so that they took them away from almost a million people. They think modern medical care and hospitals are fine--for people who can afford them. They believe in international trade--so much so that they crippled our reciprocal trade program, and killed our International Wheat Agreement. They favor the admission of displaced persons--but only within shameful racial and religious limitations.They consider electrical power a great blessing--but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They say TVA is wonderful--but we ought never to try it again. They condemn "cruelly high prices"--but fight to the death every effort to bring them down. They think American standard of living is a fine thing--so long as it doesn't spread to all the people. And they admire of Government of the United States so much that they would like to buy it."
President Harry S. Truman

Being moderate is what got us to the place we are now. do you really want more of what obama is doing?

Reb....being moderate on both sides is much better than being to far right or left......

I repeat being moderate is why we are where we are.

Like that great manager from the 50s, Casey Stengle used to say.......You can look it up

 

[Mr. Shaman]

regardless if it's earned or not, the GOP has a major public relations issue on their hands.

Hey....c'mon......they're only asking women to....

....DO WHAT THEY'RE TOLD!!!
