Why it's important to keep a Republican out of the White House

[ScienceRocks]

The number one reason: Supreme Court Justice appointments. Republican appointed Justices have bought us Citizens United. That's basically had the effect of selling off our government to the highest bidder. Unhappy with your candidate? You can thank unlimited pac money. Bought to you by you Republican appointed justices.

Republican appointed John Roberts brought you your obamacare....oh yeah, you like him now.

Republicans also formed the Epa, International space station and a lot of our nations fusion research...Republicans also were the biggest pushers of going back to the moon & mars. The problem is the loserterians aren't conservatives or republicans and need to be defeated like a cancer.

If the GOP would have stuck up for the middle class and lower class then they. Would be in the white house. Why do they have such a disdain for those that work hard just to barely make ends meet? Why don't they want to make those peoples' live ALOT easier? Why is it bad that everyone should have access to health insurance? Why is SS bared? Why is Medicare bad? Those are two programs the working class needs when they age. Instead of offering better ideas they say "no" and that's it. Anything for the corporations and rich. Until they change their MO they are going to have to battle every election.

Because they're the party of the super rich that hates anything that helps the other 95% of the country. They hate science that doesn't make the super rich far richer, r&d investment because it grows the middle class and infrastructure as they can't control the profit.

Fuck the loserterian side of the republican in their nasty backstabbing ass.

Hmmmm, yes...the republicans...the party of the super rich...just ask the Kennedies...or the Gates' or john kerry, or george soros, or warren buffet.......or any of the dweebs in Silicon valley............yeah......you are so smart......

Well to be honest Bill and Hillary were once dead broke

There is no disdain for people who work hard. We hope you succeed. We WANT you to become taxpayers and customers. We'd love fro you to share the burdens of being a citizen as well as the benefits.
Every one SHOULD have access to health insurance, just like they have access to automobiles, bananas and firearms.
BUT
If you want me to subsidize your health care, buy me a gun, OK?

We collect Social Security and use Medicare when we hit 65 too. We all paid in and expect to receive the benefit. No one wants to eliminate it. I would, however like to see its solvency guaranteed by some improvements.

Right now, our "better ideas" have zero chance of a Presidential signature so the best we can offer is a promise to stop the bleeding and just say no to the obama agenda.

As a conservative who votes Republican, and supports the libertarians and Tea Party....I'm all for space exploration, we get wonderful things from it and we are a race of explorers...who want to know what God created......are you sure your dem buddies are.............are you sure they won't say it hurts the earth and we shouldn't do it...........might want to check.........they might not have your back on that one......since they hate technology

Nice to know you like socialist social security brought to you by democrats. Now name something other than god, guns, and gays, that the republicans offer. They are the most corrupt of all by the way. Grant, Harding, Nixon, Reagan, McCain of the keating 5 for example.

Good plan, when we can afford it.
When Kennedy challenged us to send a man to the moon within a decade, the deficit was -.6% of GDP, now, it's 6.8%. Our debt was 1/2 GDP now it's 100%. We simply can't afford to feed the welfare state and fund a voyage to Mars.

The number one reason: Supreme Court Justice appointments. Republican appointed Justices have bought us Citizens United. That's basically had the effect of selling off our government to the highest bidder. Unhappy with your candidate? You can thank unlimited pac money. Bought to you by you Republican appointed justices.

Oh yeah.... What really ticks Libs off about Citizens United is that labor unions can no longer donate huge amounts to Liberals without corporations being able to support their interests as well.

Before Citizens United, labor unions were able to donate limited funds. Now they are able to donate unlimited funds.

And that is a good thing.......it is stupid to limit spending on political speech...how else do you get to speak.....? The more speech the better........

Speech isn't corruption just because a corporation does it or a political group......I know to democrats any opposing speech to their agenda is not just corrupt, it is a thought crime that should be punishable by prison or death......but we live in America....not democrat sympathetic Russia, China, Cuba, or nazi Germany.....

If any person has greater access to political power that his fellows, that is tyranny, plain and simple, and to allow anyone to dominate his fellows by unequal influence is treason. That is what America is about. Duh:

"In this state of society, the unalienable rights of nature are held sacred:--And each member is entitled to an equal share of all the social rights. No man can of right become possessed of a greater share: If any one usurps it, he so far becomes a tyrant; and when he can obtain sufficient strength, the people will feel the rod of a tyrant."
-- Samuel Adams; to the Legislature of Massachusetts (Jan. 17, 1794)

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Perhaps, in time, when the bane of the TPM and social right become extinct, and republicans are again interested in responsible governance and respecting the rule of law – including acknowledging the privacy rights of women and equal protection rights of gay Americans – it might again be appropriate to consider a republican presidential candidate.

Clearly that's not the case today, particularly with regard to the likes of Cruz and Walker.

Don't know unions are just Corps? I'm not surprised you don't know the same rules for them as for Corps *shaking head*

 

[Dad2three]

As of October 25, corporate donations to Democrats and liberals totaled about $136 million, compared to about $98 million for Republican and conservative recipients. Labor unions, on the other hand, gave $119 million to Democrats, but less than $3 million to Republicans.

Sourced monies?


Dark money still a Republican game

Overall, Republican-leaning dark money groups have spent $94.6 million, while Democratic-leaning groups have spent $28.4 million. Some $1.9 million in expenditures could not be classified.

 

[Dad2three]

Citizens United means we will never again have an open, honest election.

Sheldon Adelson will buy the R candidate and then the RW sheeples will obediently vote for him.

Ever hear of George Soros?

Ernie S.
You really think George Soros can compete with the fortune of Adelson? Especially when combined with Koch's, not to mention Muslim money.

I hear there's a lot of Muslim money going to hillary right now. And Soros' bucks, combined with 99% of labor's money, more than offsets Adelson.

Since McCain Feingold the Democrats have been raising more money than the GOP every election cycle. Citizens United closed the gap a bit, but Democrats still raised more in the last 2 cycles.

Nonsense you are talking REPORTED money

NY Times: 69 Percent Of Dark Money"Spent On Behalf Of Republicans" This Cycle. According to The New York Times, 69% of at least $216 million dollars spent during the midterm elections was "spent on behalf of Republicans"

The Sunlight Foundation: Dark Money Groups "Tend To Give More Heavily To Republican Candidates." The Sunlight Foundations' managing editor Kathy Kiely told Politifact that "untraceable dark money is a preferred tactic of conservatives," and added that "dark money groups also tend to give more heavily to Republican candidates, which would hint that donors are also Republicans."
