GOP Attack on Middle Class Americans - Floor Speech

[slothworthy]

sounds like "we the people" should declare the republican party along with the tea baggers a outlaw organization and demand it be abolished !!!!

[MrAppleseed88]

We allowed these evil scum to send our jobs to china, and to import millions of illegal scum to grind down our wages. We are all fucked because you let it happen.

[AlaterialCarnesir]

@BoredomCorner Your ignorance makes me weep. Very well. Feel content to wallow in your anti-intellectualism, your sad misunderstanding of reality. It is so much easier to lay blame than to achieve actual understanding. Please, though, do yourself a favor, and at some point wake up. You can point at a door and call it a window, but that does not make it so.

[BoredomCorner]

@AlexShrugged Government employees ARE public sector jobs, you idiot. And by the way, as much as the far-right hates this, EVERYONE HAS RIGHTS!

[ASLforever100]

Thank you for standing for middle class.

[Bdub1952]

Speaking the truth...a middle class citizen voting Republican is like a chicken voting for Col. Sanders.

[TheJackOfFate]

People who believe this drivel are the same ones who would take up pitchforks and torches to burn "witches" during the Dark Ages.

[BoredomCorner]

@TheJackOfFate No, those would be the Tea Party lunatics who are so adamant to wipe out anything liberal that they bring guns to town hall meetings, assault Democrats, shoot children and congresswomen, threaten to overthrow the elected government just because of an election result, and want to bankrupt the world just because a black man is in the White House.

The GOP IS out to get the middle class, why else are they gouging social spending and giving the rich even more money?

[NowThePeople]

The biggest threat to government is OUR generation, they love it that we don't vote becuase then things stay the same. If your 18-29 I want to see you at the polls. Shock the world with your voter turn out. This is OUR future too:)

[urparanoia]

@NowThePeople-Couldn't agree with you more BUT, these people should be educated regarding issues. The conservative spin machine is at work full time, 24/7 and has convinced all too many voters that their way is the right way. Sadly many voters listen to the right wing rhetoric and as a result they support a party that pats them on the back while simultaneously picking their pocket. Conservatives do not, and never will support the average citizen.

This whole blab about people who work on the union have no right to argue their salary wages is a violation of a valuable component of the first amendment: Freedom of speech! This is America! The land of democracy. To say that people do not have the right to exercise their say on salary is a contradicting statement that desecrates the foundation of America, DEMOCRACY! This is what our founding fathers fought for! Have you forgotten about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?

[rollingthunder1400cc]

@AlexShrugged You're a flaming teabagging idiot.

[MsPrince4life]

Finally, someone exposed them for who they truly are!

[Tiny1bme]

We get people like Gov Walker when Democrats don't vote in every election just the presidential. Democrats need to get out vote in mid term elections too. When the Republicans are done there will be no middle class. Only poor and very rich, US workers will have the same wage as those in China & India.. It's said what the Republicans are doing just to benefit corporations who hope to pay workers less so they can fill their greedy pockets. They don't care about America just themselves.

[MsPrince4life]

@Tiny1bme

You are so right! The Republicans are just for the 1% wealthiest population, but not for the middle class or the poor. It cracks me up to see how these lobbying groups address the Congress of issues that they "assume" that they know about the struggling citizens of America. In actuality, they do not know those problems! They only address the issues that benefit themselves and their pockets. They don't know a damn thing that a struggling citizen goes through!!!!

[funkyflights]

Right wing is attempting to ruin this country....literally... The only reason this country has been the envy of the world is the strong middle class ... THAT"S changing at and alarming rate... USA is in big trouble..

[johnbinsb]

Bargain with your employer??? You are an idiot! So a police officer is supposed to join the private sector and bargain with an employer??? Im sorry...what police department do you know of that is privately owned??? Im really confused by that statement.

PS...unions do not equal communism!!! You guys really need to do a little more research before posting comments on the internet.

[SupremekaiD5]

@johnbinsb he sure set you straight

[MsPrince4life]

@johnbinsb

You said it right!

[DeathKorps94]

Nobody is attacking the middle class you lying sack of crap. They are trying to not fire some teachers, Once again more lies from liberals

[yakyakyak69]

The Fed corrupts crony politicians with power to borrow, debase & spend to buy “support” from Special Interest Groups, Unions, “Too Big to Fail” Corporations, the Military-Industrial Complex & Wall Street Cartels.

Central Banking with Fiat Debt-Currency & Fractional Reserve Banking gave birth to the most evil political trends in the history of this world; communism, socialism, fascism, state-corporatism & the despotism of central economic planning.

Watch: "Money as Debt" here on YouTube.

[asf7sg89]

You know what's really depressing?

The right wing base is getting increasingly more accepting of the idea that higher/public education is elitist and not essential.

I fear for our future.

[LODGE4444]

Anti-Union = Anti-American.

[DeathKorps94]

@LODGE4444 Pro Union = Pro Communism

[LODGE4444]

@DeathKorps94 There are no labor unions in communist countries.

[DeathKorps94]

@LODGE4444 its one big labor union lol

[BIGGW0RM]

Thank you, Now if the rest of the Democrats can pull their heads of of their asses maybe we can get something done.

[flitedocnm]

Meteor Blades made the perfect comment about this: "Every Democrat worthy of the name ought to be making speeches like this, frequently, and not just on the floor of Congress."

[Cuchulainn1984]

I love this guy. The Bay is lucky to have him.

[cthasker]

Thank you Rep Miller! You make this Californian proud.
