Our politicians go to church on Sunday and
sing, "Jesus loves the little children; red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in
His sight," until it comes to money.

No where in this country has public education
ever been overfunded, or for that matter, even
adequately funded.

The best of medical care is a right for a politician in Washington, but not for a poor
man on the street.

The biggest industry in this country is the
Pentagon.

You don't have to be a blind conservative not
to see it, just an ignorant one to deny it.

We cut taxes for the rich; we cut funding to the states to pay for it. The states raise taxes on the citizens of their state to recoup the money; who pays the bills? Working class people!
The rich man dances and the poor man pays the band. If you are tired of this help fix our broken political system; throw'em all out and start over!
