>>we need something different than welfare for the wealthy and laissez-faire for the workers.<<

isn't it ironic that republicans have held office during the largest period of growth in the size of the government, the size of governmental power and the size of the debt and guys like longshort didn't complain one bit.

yet they complain about a domocrat who couldn't possibly be as bad as the bushevics.

it seems to be a weird political mental block.
