Damned Liberal

Another presidential election is upon us.
It's time for the Democrats to drag out a lie:
"Ralph Nader Cost Al Gore the 2000 election"

Vote Green Party

Howie Hawkins for President

Green Party Platform

The Republican Party preposterously calls itself
"The Party of Lincoln".
Nothing could be more absurd.

Lincoln said: “with malice toward none, with charity for all.”
and that certainly does NOT describe today's GOP.

Lincoln was not a xenophobic racist determined
to overthrow the government
or promoting white supremacy.

Nor did he say he wanted to
"Flood the zone with shit".

A foreign state is spying on and working to influence
U.S. citizens,and it is organized and sanctioned by
a foreign government (Israel).

"Everything AIPAC does is focused on influencing Congress."

Why isn't AIPAC registered
as a foreign lobbyist?

You don't need to read his lies and hate, anyway.

Unfollow Trump

...and besides, you'll still be regaled with his lies
anyway thanks to the corporate Media, which
slavishly repeats whatever he says.

The Mueller Report

"Greed-dominated capitalism" afflicts the U.S.
So does voter ignorance and stupidity:

The Brainwishing of my Dad

UnNews
An index of unreliable news sources

The duopoly is one of the most destructive forces in the U.S.
Vote third party - give the duopoly a well-deserved death.

Plutocrats want to turn public schools into
private schools and enrich themselves
at our children's expense.

Neoliberal Fascism and the Twilight of the Social
(Henry Giroux)

State Policy Network (right wing group):
[Their] "agenda includes opposing President Obama’s health-care program and climate-change regulations, reducing union protections and minimum wages, cutting taxes and business regulations, tightening voting restrictions, and privatizing education."
(Jane Mayer, The New Yorker)

...and don't forget "socialism" for fire departments, police departments,
schools, FEMA, flood insurance, and any government spending
for the public good (e.g., drug testing, health department, etc.).

Donald Trump and the Republicans Work Every Day to
Destroy Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid
(while doing all they can to serve banks, corporations, and the oligarchs)

7 times the Mueller report caught Sean Spicer and Sarah Sanders lying to press

It's the law:
"participation in rituals of national loyalty cannot be compelled"
