No I'm not reading anything wrong.
I'm also reading you as a denier of the last conservative control freaks we had in charge.

It's progressives that kept the US from living in a cesspool of pollution being created by so-called conservatives.
It's progressives that don't believe in the death penalty, much less such a swift death penalty, or it being televised for that matter.
It's progressives that believe in the worth, rights and dignity of all people.

How much did the last conservative administration outsource jobs so they could make people obsolete?
How much did the last conservative administration make government smaller?
How much did the last conservative administration lower the need for government assistance?

No need to answer, anyone with half a brain knows the answer, and there's nothing you can say to change it.

So you're all for putting a new motto on our currency?
Instead of e plurbis unum (from many, one), you'd rather have something like; from one, one?

The only difference between a nanny state that takes care of people, and a daddy state that refuses to, is one of how the corruption is administered.
Personally, I'd rather have a state that cares for people in some capacity, over one that doesn't care in any capacity.

Republicans have never lowered the deficits or debt at any time they held power.... never once.
Only a fool believes doing the same thing over and over results in something different... and that fool would be you.

The Grand Old Pussy platform is the same tired old bait-and-switch shell game BS it ever was.
