Heh, the picture with the AFL-CIO. Doesn’t he realize that in their top ten points in 2004 they were against gun control, against homosexual marriage and also reluctant to embrace Illegal Immigration until now? Many of the small town Pennsylvanians, I would expect, belong to a union like the AFL-CIO(the largest Labor Union in America(whereas the NEA is the largest one in general)) and do not like Illegal Immigrants taking their jobs and......

also hate outsourcing. Since it is the Protectionist Wing of the Democrats to hate outsourcing yet somehow allowing Illegal aliens in, Obama is going to have to answer the two positions that seem consistent on paper. He could also explain whether government programs or social worker programs are jobs that “Americans won’t do” because they cannot as they might’ve been outsourced according to the AFL-CIO. I am still angry, at least a little, that he insulted my mother’s town and the towns of a few people I know or knew.

SkyPilot, we must be talking about two different topics. When I said these things would not be happening but for the failure of GWB, I meant the president’s courting of liberals for his entire second term and giving the back hand to conservatives. I was not talking about illegitimacy in America, but there is a lot of that too. And God does not stop stupid people from doing stupid things until they repent.

There are maybe 5 Republicans in Philly

O there's plenty of Republicans in Philly, and they get their share of the patronage and graft, just behind the scenes. I always thought they rather enjoyed, not to mention benefited, from remaining below the radar.

Strange town.
