I just heard Ed Schultz say that the republicans are trying to defund the progressive movement at appx. 09:13 PM CST 2/24/11.
Yep the democrats are scared that their gravy train is about to go away.
“Progressive” is the pan-Leninist one world code name for “Communist”.
So why not defund it?
The Libs are scared? Certainly hope so. Hope they are scared to death of Republicans.
Why should conservatives fund progressives who are destroying our country?
KY is right to work state as well. Why isn’t it on the map?
You’d better be right, Ed! (You gargoyle, you.)
Ding ding ding! Why do y’all think that the Democratics have chosen this hill to die on (meaning the public sector unions)? Because that’s a huge source of their power and money. If the GOP manages to choke off that supply of money and influence, they know their going to have a lot more difficult time.
BTW watch out for that squall line. It had a little fun on our Rutherford, Wilson line.
You, sir, are indeed a patriot.
Putting your brain behind enemy lines, even to gather intelligence (sic), is above and beyond.
Oh dear, you mean the moochers aren’t going to be able to live off the taxpayers anymore. /sarc
So is Schulz admitting that the unions are the nexus of the ‘Progressive Movement’?
No public employee unions, no Democrats. JB Williams
News With Views. A corollary: no Democrats, no RINOs
If Schultz is their spokesman, they’re already bankrupt.
Can’t Soros fund it? Oh . . wait, yeah . . he already does.
“damned Democrat’s Socialist “Progressive” movement”
Let’s just be careful and not let the GOP swing towards a “damned Republican Fascist “Progressive” movement.
Good and precise point. . .that might escape Ed's attention; especially given that he himself, is probably funded by our taz moneies; in some way. . .somehow. Unless, Soros just paying his way. Whatever, these people are parasitic, by habit.
He says that like it’s a bad thing.
Heh.
Well, of course. The Legal Aid Society gets $1 billion dollars a year and it is used specifically to advocate for leftist causes in Federal and State courts. Planned Parenthood, NPR, PBS,and more also count as examples.
During the 1994 Republican revolution, Newt Gingrich mentioned "defunding the left" and he failed. The MSM went into overdrive and destroyed him -- it took 4 years, but they succeeded.
I always thought the best strategy, since then, would be to "starve" the left by draconian cuts, each year, that erode away and finally kill these programs. Because pulling the plug failed so dramatically previously.
this is a question they can’t answer.. if it’s such a good idea and so many people want it, why do they need the government to fund them? same with NPR and PBS.. when I watch the PBS station with my kids, they have commercials, why do we need to keep funding them if they already have commercials?
