What the U.S. worker has forgotten when voting against the DNC

[Pumpkin Row]

Just a point of fairness......and I would readily agree that the current DNC leadership SUCKS in not making the case why the party has done more for common workers than any elected republican who really works for his or her donors........Hillary Clinton was an awful candidate, and Pelosi needs to go and retire, and the Chairs of the DNC need a spine......

But the list below should be a reminder to all U.S. workers WHY ....in the long run......the DNC is a much better choice to address their interests and concerns,

1) Democrats Fought for Social Security (F.D.R.)
2) Democrats Fought for Medicare (L.B.J.)
3) Democrats Fought for Medicaid (L.B.J.)
4) Democrats Fought for Welfare Benefits (F.D.R.)
5) Democrats Fought for Civil Rights (L.B.J.)
6) Democrats Fought for Unemployment Insurance (F.D.R.)
7) Democrats Fought for National Labor Relations Board (F.D.R.)
8) Democrats Fought for 8 Hour Work Day-5 Day Work Week- Work Place Breaks & Overtime Pay (F.D.R.)
9) Democrats Fought for Workers Compensation (Woodrow Wilson)
10) Democrats Fought for Americans with Disability Act (101st Democratic Congress - over G.H.W. Bush veto)
11) Democrats Fought for Holiday Pay(F.D.R.)
12) Democrats Fought for Medical Leave Act (Bill Clinton)
13) Democrats Fought for Prevention of Child Labor (F.D.R.)
14) Democrats Fought for Minimum Wage Act (F.D.R.)
15) Democrats Fought for Work Place Safety (OSHA) *** (Nixon)
16) Democrats Fought for Affirmative Action as it relates to Racial Discrimination (J.F.K)
17) Democrats Fought for Women's Rights (L.B.J)
18) Democrats Fought for Tax Fairness (Platform Issue)
19) Democrats Fought for Veterans Pay & Benefits (F.D.R.)
20) Democrats Fought for Consumer Protection / Consumer Bill of Rights (J.F.K.)
21) Democrats Fought for Gun Law's / Background Checks to prevent felons from getting Weapons (L.B.J) (B.Clinton)
22) Democrats Fought for Credit Card Holders Bill of Rights (Barack Obama)
23) Democrats Fought for Funding Our Schools (L.B.J.)
24) Democrats Fought for Grants for low income people to attend college (L.B.J.)
25) Democrats Fought for Environmental Regulations - Clean Water Act / Clean Air Act (Dems Override Nixon Veto)

33) Democrats Fought for Clayton Anti-Trust Act (Woodrow Wilson)
34) Democrats Fought for Securities & Exchange Act (Franklin D. Roosevelt)
35) Democrats Fought for National School Lunch Program (Harry Truman)

Right wingers on here who rated the above list as "funny" have courageously refused to have anything to do with Number 8.....

8 Hour Work Day-5 Day Work Week- Work Place Breaks & Overtime Pay.....
LOL

Actually, those rating it funny are likely doing so because you believe any of the legislation you listed was represented honestly and/or was actually a good thing. FDR, LBJ, and Woodrow Wilson are three of the worst presidents in history, in fact. Of course, you know that, because I've creamed you in a debate regarding all of these topics before, you just re-posted all of this knowing you were being dishonest.

I've heard from more than one or two old timers from the depression era say that this country was close to having a revolution prior to FDR's election. Being in my '70s gave me a chance to talk to those of that generation. Not saying that their opinion was correct or not, but the president did have general macarthur give the order to fire on the veterans from WW1 who were protesting in D.C. I do believe FDR saved the day for the country back then.

The people of that time period lacked the ability to figure out the actual results of FDR's policies. What we can see today is that FDR caused and extended the Great Depression. Had the man sat on his hands and done literally nothing, it would have lasted four years, after he had already caused it.

His regulations on the private sector prevented them from creating jobs, hiring workers, and expanding. His regulations also caused products to become over priced. The man stomped all over the constitution and wanted to make the United States into a Socialist dictatorship.

In short; Good for you, you're wrong.

Nice to meet you, though, you seem like a nice guy<3

Good, you ^^ just keep that old head in the sand.

Women don't want equality?

No, blue collar men and women don't want deranged men in their private areas. You can play stupid word games all day long but in 2016 the dems bit it hard because they misjudged this simple fact. If they try it again, the same thing will happen. This time I can see the Dumont v Lyon case being one of judicially-legislating mothers or fathers into irrelevance by fiat. Blue collar sentiments will ring just about the same for that atrocity as they did for psycho males sharing the ladies' room with their mothers, wives, daughters and grandmothers.

Starship troopers wouldn't have a problem with it, why should the militia of the United States.

So to summarize the thread. It is another in a long line of the same type. We the Democrats suck. But the Republicans suck way worse. Or something.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Perhaps if you guys spent as much time on these issues last year as you did advocating for a man in a dress to use the women's bathroom Trump wouldn't be president right now.

In all honesty Taz....can you REALLY say that the above was ALL that democrats talked about last year???

Hillary was an awful candidate and felt too entitled to the oval office....of that I have no argument.......BUT, to say that the above was the cornerstone of the Dems. platform is a bit unfair, don't you think?

If you don't think the fact that you people have been embracing the extremists in your party for the past several years while ignoring your traditional voter base wasn't a major factor in your defeat then I don't know what to tell you.

shhhhhhhh......

We want the lunatic cult far left to keep telling its whole base that this is a good idea!

Right now as we speak, two lesbians are suing in Michigan for more judicial-legislation, without children having representation at those hearings either, for a mother or father to become legally irrelevant when it comes to adopting from Christian or other objecting adoption agencies. .As they keep doing this, they keep alienating the middle dems. 2018 is in the bag.

lol your bag has a hole in it you'll be lucky if you don't lose congress altogether

That depends on how stupid the dems are and how diligent the GOP is about exposing their court battles disintegrating what's left of the nuclear family.

You see, blue collar dems like the traditional mother/father family unit. It's a little secret the Soros-dems don't know about. Shhhhhh... Don't tell anyone.

And don't tell anyone about the mess this taxcut for the rich will be for average folk

That's an old worn out cattle call. Fresh & stinging news about even more assaults on the nuclear family is what hits home. Pun intended.
