Terrance, Republic of T, for the WIN

Conservatives can’t fix poverty, because conservatives don’t want to fix poverty. For the same reason that Republicans never even attempted health care reform when they controlled the House, the Senate, and the White House. From a conservative perspective, poverty isn’t the real problem. Poor people are.
With examples.

True, That

"It's only called class warfare when we fight back."
-- Poster at Rally for a Moral Budget in Columbia, SC, 3/12/11, via Daisy's Dead Air.

"Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
Government shutdown and rot;
I see no reason why Tea Party treason
Should ever be forgot."

--Xopher Halftongue

#BlackLivesMatter. Let's try that again: Black. Lives. Matter.

"Earth is the only home that we have. It would be nice if we treated our home with a little more respect than one might give to a single-wide that one is renting for three months whilst evading a process server. "
--Comrade Misfit

"If you're dealing with angry people and your inclination is to keep your temper under control, you have to radiate a quiet strength. You have to be like Barack Obama."
-- Steve M., Crooks & Liars
