The guy is worth a lot of money.

But he isn’t changing ANYTHING all by his lonesome

We have a multi trillion dollar economy and MANY MANY wealthy Rs, even if they are not conservative.

Idiotic Americans ARE THE REASON we are flailing.

That and giving women the right to vote.

Yeah, I said it!! :)

This remark of yours about women not voting makes me so angry. I pay taxes, I support myself! I am human being and a natural born citizen of this country. What makes the extra appendage of yours so special? Is there an extra brain in there? There is no higher morality in disenfranchising half of the human race, telling them they have no say in the govt which rules over them — even if some of us should happen to vote in a way you do not like. Women do not have any rights in Islamic countries. Are the govts of the middle east better than ours? Right now, I agree, we are in a mess but the answer is not the suppression of women. And if you are going to deny women the right to vote because they might vote for democrats, then you should also deny the right to vote for male democrats.

At the founding of our nations, female suffrage and the abolition of slavery were both seriously considered. Unfortunately, for political reasons, both of those issues were put on the back burner to be resolved at a later date. And, by the way, in colonial times women DID vote!!!!!

And, as I have pointed out before, the very worst time in our nation’s history was the civil war and that war between the states happened without the vote of one single woman! Maybe if women had had the right to vote then, and slavery not allowed, there might not have been a civil war!

Furthermore, even though we are in trouble now, who knows how much worse off we might be if women were still chattel — telling women they are inferior and are to be controlled by men, might be nice for one men but potentially cruel and terrible for the women if they are under the control of men your attitude toward women, that we are not fully human and too stupid to control our own destiny.

If you don’t want people voting you don’t agree with you, why don’t you disenfranchise African Americans? After all, they vote solidly democrat.

If you want to disenfranchise a group of citizens, the group that should be disenfranchised are the teenagers. They don’t pay taxes, they don’t yet control their own destinies, they don’t know very much, and they are too much under the influence of their peers and their teachers.
