The problem is the GOP back the rich and screw the poor. They're against minimum wage for pete sakes!
Except, your premise that the minimum wage helps the poor is absolutely false.

Yeah, those links to stories. Very dishonest to report what the GOP proposes.
Now you think you're being dishonest AND clever. Nope, just dishonest.
I post my opinions and the reasons I hold those opinions. I often provide links to facts which support my opinions.
midcan QUOTED GOP candidates and NOT ONE of you has refuted those statements.
When someone, anyone, can show me something republicans have done for America that is good for America, I'll stop picking on them. Preaching and engaging in stereotypes and just plain stupid talk doesn't count.
As an addendum I could add why do other republicans (above) apologize for statements that are mean spirited, wrong, and code for the neanderthals among us?
This is about the working poor, it is about real people who work everyday, it is not about the image in the right wing mind of the Cadillac mom - a made up myth by the way. People born into privilege lead lives that today exist in a place the working poor can only dream about. http://www.usmessageboard.com/polit...h-should-not-be-taxed-more-7.html#post4391251
Our nation would be fine without the rich. The assumption that the rich create jobs is easily disputed today as we have more rich than ever and less jobs. Sometimes money and wealth are created, not through positive acts for the society that supports their endeavors, but by acts such as outsourcing and tax loopholes that are not positive.

LOL, what a dishonest twist.
Is it better to give someone a job and skills to make it on there own? Let them hold their own destiny in there hands?
Or is it better to keep a person in a cycle of minimum handouts that amounts to scraps off the table and encourage them not to break the cycles!
Dimocrats want to keep the poor and minorities on welfare programs and punish them if they leave. Keep them in a state of accepting crumble off the table and then they rely on it. It becomes such a crutch that the dependency leads to control.
It's a system that will eventually break. See what is happening in Europe with the welfare state!
Why do republicans hate the poor but love the rich?
"If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too will cry out and not be answered." Proverbs 21:13
What can one make of the statements below?
"If you're low-income...in many states you can qualify for Medicaid, you can qualify for food stamps, you can qualify for housing assistance, [even] if you're in poverty...That is not a healthy thing for children, it's not a healthy thing for society...Suffering, if you're a Christian, suffering is a part of life. And it's not a bad thing, it is an essential thing in life...There are all different ways to suffer. One way to suffer is through lack of food and shelter and there's another way to suffer which is lack of dignity and hope." Rick
"Really poor children in really poor neighborhoods have no habits of working and have nobody around them who works. So they literally have no habit of showing up on Monday. They have no habit of staying all day. They have no habit of 'I do this and you give me cash,' unless it's illegal." ¶ "You have a very poor neighborhood. You have kids who are required under law to go to school. They have no money. They have no habit of work. What if you paid them part-time in the afternoon to sit at the clerical office and greet people when they came in? What if you paid them to work as the assistant librarian? And I'd pay them as early as is reasonable and practical. ¶ "I am prepared to find something that works, that breaks us out of the cycles we're involved in right now, and finding a way for poor children to learn how to work and learning how to have money that they've earned honestly is an integral part of that." Newt
Note to Rick and Newt's mom, Mrs Mom you raised an awful child.
Who was it that said the past is never past. They missed Newt.

Still not refuted. The insults continue to fly, though.

Well look what do you want? I disagree with Perry's statements. So what. Just because he's a Republican and I am too it doesn't mean we always have to agree and neither does a statement by Perry suddenly define the Republican party. Big deal.
As far as Newt's comments....yeah there are a lot of people who are as he describes. Are they all that way? No. But some are. So what? Is that what everyone is looking for?
And BTW...the quote about money and God is being misunderstood. It doesn't say that it's a bad thing to have money. It just implies that money should not be one's master. The scripture about rich men and getting a camel through the eye of a needle. Very misunderstood. It doesn't mean heaven is forbidden to the rich. It means that it's very difficult for someone with great wealth to focus on anything BUT their wealth which, again, makes money and not God their master.
Matthew 6:24. 24 No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money."
It's a mistake to think it's only the poor the right wing hates. They hate lots and lots of people. People of all colors, religions and various sexual persuasions. They just hate. A lot. Who knows why? Even they don't know why.
