    Yeah, there's not too much factually incorrect in the piece, but he's definitely cherry-picking his facts to make it seem like the GOP and "the corporations" are the ones mostly responsible for the ****ed-up condition of our country, which I've already argued is stupid. He also has a very poor grasp of economics, but that's to be expected from a Congress critter.

      I am not a supporter of Obama and object to a number of his foreign and domestic policies. But when he took office amid the greatest financial collapse in 80 years, I wanted him to succeed, so that the country I served did not fail. But already in 2009, Mitch McConnell, the Senate Republican leader, declared that his greatest legislative priority was - jobs for Americans? Rescuing the financial system? Solving the housing collapse? - no, none of those things. His top priority was to ensure that Obama should be a one-term president. Evidently Senator McConnell hates Obama more than he loves his country. Note that the mainstream media have lately been hailing McConnell as "the adult in the room," presumably because he is less visibly unstable than the Tea Party freshmen
      This might be a relatively new phenomenon. I don't think Republicans have always been okay with wrecking America for political gain.

        The game of thrones is the same, it just got more fierce.
        John Brown did nothing wrong.

            That's probably correct.
            “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

              Whenever these come out it always amuses me because who would believe the government would really let someone with real information loose. it's like the people who believe the people that come forward to tell the "truth" about Area 51. Like the government would really let anyone who knew secrets get free.
