the Robert Louis Stevenson lamplighter story.
All the Republicans sitting silently when the Governor called for passing a civil unions bill.
Even Newt Gingrich has acknowledged that gay marriage is going to happen. Gay marriage! Yet our state Republicans won’t even consider a civil unions bill. It’s immoral, and even worse, terrible politics.
Republicans stayed silent too. Even Lynn Bartels noticed.
Two more years of good times and recovery would make their biennial campaign slogan that “Things are a mess and father Republican knows best” relevant.
At a policy level how can you promote gutting government if things are working?
… of course, that now is the time to start advocating for lower tax rates because the government is growing too fast.
Nevermind the huge gaps we’ve left in government services as a result of this Republican-led recession, now is the time to cut government some more.
I hope he takes his own advice about listening to science on drilling. Thus far, he hasn’t.
He wore a tie.
Gun violence has more social and policy implications than many wish to discuss It’s not just the NRA. It speaks to US policy, foreign and domestic.
This can lead to a discussion about US military exports, which are greater than any other country and have been for decades. The intelligence community could stop it if wants, but the dark under belly of US foreign policy has been that the US profits from war and illegal narcotics trade. If you doubt the last statement then read The Pentagon Papers circa 1968/69, and the CIA’ report on Iran Contra. Both document arms and drug smuggling supported by the US intelligence community. It’s the military industrial complex.
I believe in banning assault weapons. That would make a difference, but would not eliminate mass shootings, nor smuggling of arms South.Closing loopholes in background checks makes sense. The only true way to stop the violence in Latin America related to narcotics and gun running is to legalize narcotics, which drops the profit margins, and to readdress financially supporting rehabilitation rather than the private prison industry.This won’t happen any time soon, if ever.
