Gang of 6? How about the Gang of 200,000,000?
As in 200,000,000 Americans?

You know, the 2/3rds of our population WHO DO NOT WANT SS AND MEDICARE ON THE GOP'S BARGAINING TABLE.

Is a gang of six gonna override a gang of 200 million? In a democracy?

Edited on Wed Jul-20-11 12:04 PM by laruemtt
couldn't we just call them the Crips or the Bloods? i think Bloods is more appropriate since that seems to be what they want to take from us.............

9. This is Obama's fault as much as the GOP
Don't fall for the hype.

Obama is using the debt ceiling debate as a ruse to get through his entitlement cuts. Of courese the gop will go for it.

But this is mostly on obama, make no mistake about it.

11. A crime gang of six doesn't care about the great majority.
They only care about perpetrating their crimes.
