"Workers of the world, unite!" --Karl Marx

" . . .Regarding the economic imbalance in our country, I am reminded of the situation President Theodore Roosevelt faced in the early days of the 20th century. America was then, as now, drifting apart along class lines. The so-called robber barons were unapologetically raking in a huge percentage of the national wealth. The dispossessed workers at the bottom were threatening revolt. . . ."

Not so fast Webb. The Senate floored the bill as it did not have any tax breaks for small business. They might as well of called it the "Walmart Wins Bill" . Law making is hard, you cant just throw this stuff together. First we had Pelosi's exemption for corporations in her district, now we have no way of protecting "mom and pops" stores from raised cost of doing business. You can't be too hard on the Dems they just didn't know that taxes could be lowered.

I know it took forever for me to finally visit your blog and comment on it, and adding your blog to my blogroll was long overdue, But I am now here and you are now on my blogroll.

Thanks for your valuable input.

I stil can't get over the idea that Webb thinks we can negotiate a peace with the Jihadists. I can't even concentrate on other parts of the speech.
