What do I think their intentions are (both parties)? The "new world order" as mentioned by Poppy Bush and smiled upon by Clinton, continued by puppet Bush Jr. Extinction of the middle class, king of the world stuff...the very rich and the very poor, nothing in between. What else can explain the government-assisted invasion of America by a third world country, forcing America to pay the bill? Police state tactics.
I realize I'll get flamed for this, but I think it's true.
You wo;t be flamed by me.
I don;t think that it's outside the realm of possibility that it would be in the interes of certain parties to erode the middle class.
You want to see what America will look like in 50 years? Consider China.
I don't think anything quite that diabolical is going on with the Bushes...
One of Bush's nephews is Mexican though---could be more of a family feeling of compadres!
And the only reason for that is we love anyone and anything Republican on FR. Couple that with the extraordinary hatred of any American who works for a living and it adds up to a rubber stamp on anything that comes out of the White House and blanket condemnation of anything or anyone who offers so much as a word of criticism about it.
Imagine the shrill cry of outrage if the exact same policies during the last five years with regard to illegal immigration, offshoring of high tech jobs and the collapse of the manufacturing infrastructure had happened under the leadership of Bill Clinton.
But then, what do you expect of people with broad band access, too much time on their hands, and dreams of being Bill Gates.
Bottom line: We love GWB. He has an "R" after his name and that's all that matters.
