113. Absolutely. Check out
Edited on Sat Jul-23-11 09:24 AM by Zorra
these quotes by President Eisenhower, a republican:

"Only a fool would try to deprive working men and working women of their right to join the union of their choice."

Can you imagine any republican today saying that?

Or can you imagine a Third Way party DINO saying this?:

"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes."

For that matter, can you imagine Obama speaking the quote posted above?

I can't.
