if you actually looked at policy and the effects their economic policy had rather than their rhetoric, obama is further to the right than george w bush, the so called "dumbest presidents [sic]"
Explain further, so that I can systematically dismantle and destroy your languid and inept argument.
i didnt vote for nader, i wouldn't vote for nader and i don't care about nader
Probably because you are a dimwit who is not knowledgeable either on the issues or the political stance of those whom are running.
In any event, Nader was espousing the EXACT same thing you stated in your previous post, so your lack of interest in his agenda in 2000 is helpful in revealing your lack of insight.
but george w bush won solely on electoral fraud, in both his elections so nader is irrelevant here.
WRONG
There are those who attempt to say otherwise, but without Nader on the ballot in Florida, I believe Bush would not have been able to steal the election. The vote difference would have been too great. Bush won after the ballot recount by roughly 540 votes. Nader received approximately 97, 500 votes from predominately liberal democrat voters. You do the math.
idiot
however you are an idiot so you can continue believing whatever propaganda put forth by the establishment that there is an imperative to vote democratic even though the democrats and republicans differ only in rhetoric and their policy are exactly the same
*yawn*
I have FORGOTTEN more about politics than you currently know, son. I work on Wall Street...I know that the major financial institutions have their hands in on both sides of the aisle. I have sat in on both democrat and republican fundraisers held primarily for bankers, hedge fund managers, and other wealthy New York power brokers. So in that sense, yes, both parties are beholden to the many of the same corporate interests.
Yet...the democrats believe in a social safety net. The republicans don't. This means things like welfare, unemployment insurance, social security for the elderly, medicaid for the poor and medicare for the elderly would not exist if the republicans had their way. I'm sure you've heard Ronald Reagan's 1960's ad commercial railing against Medicare by now, haven't you? It is on youtube for your perusal.
Democrats by and large believe in a progressive tax. Republicans until recently did too, but more and more we are seeing republicans speak out in favor of a flat tax...a veritable windfall tax break for the wealthiest Americans.
Democrats fought the fight to make many Civil Rights laws a reality, making things better for women and minorities. The republicans fought tooth and nail to keep the Civil Rights Act, Voting Rights Act, and institutions like the EEOC from becoming a reality.
The democrats are at the forefront of improving life for gay Americans in the military and in the workplace. The republicans by and large have been fighting against these measures.
I could go on an on...but of course I am an "idiot", and none of these things matter. They are simply "rhetoric"...both parties are exactly the same.
fucking imbecile
