The entire House of Cards in the world of Republicanland is built upon a foundation of WAR. WAR is what pays the bills in the World of Billionaires. WAR is what gives rise to the Dictators of small countries who have leaders (ha!) that want to rule like Dick Cheney into lining the pockets of a few families that control the corporate media and by extension which way the wind is REPORTED to blow in those countries.
Kind of like a country we all know and care about.
Sell them equipment to kill, maim and create mayhem, and what you have is a populice not unlike that of the United States of America. Underfunded, overextended, underwhelmed by lack of jobs and overwhelmed by debt and a total lack of fairness between those that wallow in money and those that scrimp to MAYBE make ends meet.
That House of Flimsy MF'in' cards could come tumbling down with a slight breath of air if one answer was provided by the American people.
Corporations can now hire American workers at a fraction of what they could 8 years ago. Without good benefits like many used to receive. That is because the playing field is no longer just slanted instead of being level, but because the Corporations who depend on WAR to pay their bills are now creating the New and Improved serf class of workers to exploit.
BTW, Canada called and said they are fine, thank you. They asked that you please poll the Puritan Goobers just below their border. Oh, and they are beefing up their security in order to make sure said Goobers don't get in without Ze Papers!
Markos, please poll this question. Use any wording you choose, but PLEASE?!? I think there is some real win possible in the answer. Some further background to said question.
Representative David Obey (D - WI)
"There ain't going to be no money for nothing if we pour it all into Afghanistan," House Appropriations Chairman David Obey told ABC News in an exclusive interview. "If they ask for an increased troop commitment in Afghanistan, I am going to ask them to pay for it."
Markos, poll the American people and ask them if they are willing to keep the killing fields of Afghanistan open, including the money that will have to be paid back by our Grandchildren, and the lack of Grandchildren we will have due to the killing of our American Soldiers today. Are they willing to pay more taxes to keep this WAR alive?
Ask them, Markos. Word it correctly, as I'm sure I have not. However, ask the question.
The teabaggers love to talk about not being able to pay for healthcare because of THEIR GRANDCHILDREN. Joe (Droopy) Lieberman goes there on a monthly basis.
I think we might have a game changer here.
