yet you blow into the same trumpet, just from the right side. Pure Hypocrisy ;-)
9 Reasons Why America Is a Terrible Place to Raise Kids

There certainly aren't in yours! All the wall space is taken up by Judy!
I didn't say I love all democrats. I said I like everything about the Democratic party. I should have expounded to say I like everything about the platform and general ideals of and voting patterns of the democratic party as a whole. Are there individuals that are crooks and liars and sleaze bags? Of course.
well, when some policies just do not work then one has to seriously consider alternatives.
* US's war on drugs is an utter hypocrisy, something Republicans embraced the fiercest. At least a few states finally legalized marijuana consumption. Even the dumbest Republican must realize by now that the drug problem is to be tackled on the demand not supply side.
* Republican immigration policy is an utter joke: You wanna kick out all illegals? Then who is gonna mown your lawn? You yourself? You tolerate illegals for decades and abuse them and now you wanna kick them out after they have at least performed honest work (in most all cases)?
* Then you have millions lining up for food stamps,
* Masses without health insurance coverage,
*you have 60% of the US population that cannot even afford a simple car repair without having to borrow money.
* Republican's relentless support for Israel when really it should reign in its ally for human rights abuses and urge Israel to finally stop taxing the rest of the world by maintaining an unstable Middle East. Instead they kiss ass each time an Israeli statesman sets foot on US door steps. Who is more powerful here, looks to the rest of the world as if the US is Israel's bitch, certainly not the other way around.
If you do not call that a bankrupt society then I do not know what else to say. Those social issues were not brought about by Democrats. If anything then it is the addiction to pure hard cold capitalism, a system with no appreciation for a social welfare net, exactly the system Republicans are marketing. You people talk all day long about the country of opportunity and where hard work is rewarded. Nothing could be further from the truth for those who are not Jews and/or are born into at least the upper middle class. How on God's earth could a Republican policy improve the living standards of ordinary Americans? Free reigning policies have shown that the more freedom you give to the unscrupulous the more the system is abused via tax loopholes or outright tax evasion, and Big Corp hollowing out the living standards of ordinary Americans even further. Look at Wallmart: What good is this company doing to the US, or McDonalds. They produced employees who still need to line up for food stamps and an obese and fat society, respectively.
So, please spare us with your Republican bullshit! I am not American and could not care less but anyone on this globe can smell the trash and bullshit that is coming out of those who attempt to sell a pure capitalist idea.

Excellent post volpunter.
I am not a Democrat promoter, I equally see huge problems with changing little to nothing on the Democratic side (for which Democrats obviously cannot be entirely faulted for) but rather piling on more debt to pay for social welfare. Hence my saying that this bickering must end and both sides should start to sit together on one table and brainstorm how to run the US for the next 20-50 years.
Agreed.
* Republican immigration policy is an utter joke: You wanna kick out all illegals? Then who is gonna mown your lawn? You yourself? You tolerate illegals for decades and abuse them and now you wanna kick them out after they have at least performed honest work (in most all cases)?
Partially agree. Perhaps you weren't aware that deportations increased massively under this current administration. Unions hate illegals; unions donate "bribe" democratic politico's to enforce stronger immigration laws.
Both parties are up to their knees in dirt on this issue, so you are preaching to the choir about one side having the moral high ground on this issue.
* Then you have millions lining up for food stamps,
Food stamps are abused by all segments of the population as is SSDI. For the most part, the illegals have a strong work ethic and aren't the types of people who would simply cross the border to go on the govt dole, however I'm sure that is changing for the worse...
* Masses without health insurance coverage,
The upper class/upper middle class and the lower classes have coverage, the middle class is getting the shaft under the current health care changes. You can blame both parties to some extent for this debacle. However, the grandstanding and utter lawlessness of the roll-out and the misrepresentation of the policies (deductibles, premiums, coverage) has been shameful and has not gone over well.
*you have 60% of the US population that cannot even afford a simple car repair without having to borrow money.
The bursting of the credit bubble, the recession, ZIRP, offshoring, etc, etc...both parties have their hands dirty...
* Republican's relentless support for Israel when really it should reign in its ally for human rights abuses and urge Israel to finally stop taxing the rest of the world by maintaining an unstable Middle East.

Not really interested in the topic...

This sounds more like you've ventured off into pure leftist idealogy...All emotion, no facts. I see it all the time with your cohorts...pure gibberish.

* Lol, food stamps abused? By whom? I am sure everyone wants to be seen paying with food stamps. You gotta be joking with me.
* Re health care: Utter bollocks. Republicans are the ones who are fine to do away with any sort of mandatory health coverage. If it was just about them they would not even provide health care to the poorest of the poorest. They would argue as they have always argued: "A strong America will have plenty money to donate for good causes, bla bla bla". Stop making up lies saying Democrats are in the same camp, they are in entirely opposing camps. At least stick to facts.
* Bursting of the bubble? There would not have been a bubble in the first place if Wall Street had been properly supervised and regulated. Republican policies made it possible. But admittedly Democrats at times did not do much better. After all the repealing of Glass-Steagall occurred under Clinton.
* Haha, not really interested in this topic? Else the Jewish monster will come out of the closet? Did Netanyahu not just speak before the US Congress, circumventing not only the White House but also not even meeting with the US President? Ouch!!! So much to a foreign statesman playing poker and winning hands down against an American blinded public and puppets in Congress.
=> I stated ONLY facts, each bullet point was a reflection of facts. Lol...

Ah right, there is no fraud in food stamp usage. Everyone follows the laws and willingly forks over money for items they can get for free...yep, that's credible...
health care: Medicaid has been in place for the poor. Catastrophic plans for the lower middle class/self-employed, etc, etc...Collusion between the insurance industry and government is not exactly a "democratic" principle, so I fail to see your point here. Believe me, there are plenty of liberals who aren't enamored with ACA....
bursting of the bubble: as I mentioned in my last post, we can trace back the origins of the credit bubble at least to Nixon...it was going to blow up at some point, and yet now we have the roots of an even bigger catastrophe under Bernanke and Yellen...and yes Glass-Steagall was repealed under Clinton...so why continue down this road...
Like I've mentioned a half dozen times, my hatred for leftists is NOT an endorsement of the GOP...
That's the end of it...
