The “Democratic Party” was once the KKK Party, the slave owners Party. And now, it is ever the more comfortable in resuming that role. As George Wallace would likely have said if he was still alive, “Not two bits of difference between the Democratic Party and the Communist Party USA.”

In fact, I think they have merged, having common goals.

AMNESTY SUCKUP SEZ "Once Congress approves an immigration increase, minorities should demand more, said Chicago Democratic Rep. Luis Gutierrez, a leading advocate of the pending Senate bill, “The next day after we pass it, you know we’re not going to be satisfied, we’re going to come back,” he said. “We’re going to have a civil rights act, we’re going to have a voting rights act… Nobody is leaving this fight once we conclude this first chapter,” he said. “Hopefully, in 30 years, [we] can bring immigrants… from all over the world,” Gutierrez said.

-----this about says it all towards what his real motives are and what his goals are..the taxpayers have to pay him to attack us and ruin our country........

He forgot to mention they're all gathered at the Mexican border lying in wait to soak taxpayers and cheat the US govt---wire transfers at the ready to drain US dollars into their Third World hellholes----including US foreign aid, food stamp foreign aid, wire EITC SS, SSI, UI, welfare checks, etc, etc, etc.

LYING IN WAIT FOR OUR TAX DOLLARS---THESE IMPOVERISHED COUNTRIES CURRENTLY HAVE ORGANIZED PRESSURE GROUPS INSIDE THE US (here illegally): Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominica Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico (stateside)l Salvador, Spain, Uruguay, Venezuela.

According to the Census Bureau’s latest “American Community Survey,” between 2000 and 2012 the nation’s median household income dropped 6.6 percent. Yet in the District of Columbia median household income rose 23.3 percent. According to a 2010 survey, seven of the nation’s ten wealthiest counties are in the Washington commuter belt.

No wonder the IRS is paranoid about conservatives looking at their shenanigans.

It’s a Frog in the Pot thing...

"Truer words"...the question being, how do we get the "Frog" out of the "Pot" before we're all reduced to tasting "just like chicken"??!!

I'd laugh if it wasn't so un-funny! :(

You are right, we are in a one party system. The party of queens and subservients
