They're pro war crime, imperialism, corporate exploitation, maintaining class warfare, enslavement of illegal immigrants, etc etc etc. But hey, at least they're moral enough to negotiate Republicans into only banning half of all abortions!

Quit trying to promote rejectionism as a virtue and not a hindrance.

It's almost like socialism is just a jacket for him to wear even though he's just as blinded by bargain basement mainstream politics as anyone else.

A lot of people forget that Ronald Reagan was a big acolyte of FDR back in the 60's. Pretty much worshiped the guy.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

Quite a few things actually...

Quote:
...He didn’t alter his views when he ran for and became president, either. He often said, “Those who, through no fault of their own, must depend on the rest of us” would be exempt from budget cuts. He pushed through three tax increases as president, one of which made Social Security solvent for the past 35 years.
