Ask Republicans these questions.
Don't mention that they are Liberal Accomplishments.

Do you agree with any of the following?

Liberal Accomplishments


Social Security;

Medicare-Medicaid;

PeaceCorps;

unemployment insurance;

welfare (for the poor andcorporate);

civil rights;

student grant and loan programs;

safety laws (OSHA);

environmental laws;

prevailing wagelaws;

right to collective bargaining (which brought about

paid medical insurance, paid vacations, pensions, etc.);

workers' compensation;

Marshall Plan;

flood-disasterinsurance;

School Lunch Program;

women's rights.

Fair Labor Standards Act, which
established a minimum wage, instituted child labor laws,
and set up time-and-a-half pay for over a 40-hour week.

FHA-HUD with its public housing, urban
renewal and 44 million residential homes (before WWII
almost 70 percent of our nation were renters; by the 1970s
this had been reversed).

farm-conservation
subsidies -- USDA programs,

Farmers Home Administration (the
bankers didn't want to make rural loans),

small flood-control lakes (more than 3,000 in Oklahoma alone),
rural water districts, rural electricity (REA).

The GI Bill was passed, which the Republicans at the
time bitterly opposed.

2. I have had discussions with a repuke who would claim all those are bad
programs and should all be stopped.
He is one of those 19% of bu$h's base that would excuse bu$h even if he blew up a US city. This guy also thinks that bu$h was chosen by God to start the apocalypse.
I had many a discussion with this little repuke, it actually became a game, to see how stupid I could make him sound.
I posted some of his comments on here from time to time. I quit talking to him, it was too easy to make him the idiot he is.
