DLC control and economic destruction began after Virginia Gov. Charles Robb’s speech at the 1986 Democratic Leadership Council Conference; democratic political agendas changed as the door was opened for Democratic Party stalwarts to back away from political agendas that proposed government initiatives to address poverty, discrimination, and crime, and to join the traditional conservatives and neoconservatives in OPPOSING affirmative action, social safety-net programs, and job-creation initiatives. Thus, the New Democrats of the DLC added their voices to the chorus of those calling for stiffer sentences, an end to affirmative action, reduced welfare benefits, and less progressive tax policies on the 70% majority common population. The NEW DEREGULATION started and the rest is history—- destruction of the economy in order to destroy the social safety-net, etc. of the majority common population.  All Democrats aren’t DLC, but most went along with the plan to destroy the 70% majority common population’s safety net, so replacing all of them, with the exception of Ted Kennedy and Dennis Kucinich would be optimistic and in the best interest of the majority common population.

We need to shift the pie chart around and create jobs in this country, not our overseas outposts.

When will President Obama’s public relations people have him at a ribbon-cutting ceremony to open the first of the National Bread Lines?

Never waste another crisis, eh? This could turn into a huge weekly news event, a public relations campaign that never ends! Maybe hold a national lottery for wonderful prizes like tents, camping equipment and a free-pass for a year of healthcare!
