Phony Democrats Flogged

Credit card “reform”:just another hoodwink and bamboozle « The Confluence: "There was a time when I associated the Democratic Party with liberal ideals and considered them to be champions of the working class and the poor. Where did that party go? From FISA, to FOCA, to torture, to bank give-aways, to abandoning real healthcare reform, and to so-called stimulus packages that brought nothing more than increased unemployment and devastating debt to be passed on to our heirs, their actions are nothing like the party I once knew. It wasn’t like this during the Clinton years. Bill Clinton defined for me and many others what being a Democrat meant. Because of Bill, I not only voted for Democrats, I fought like hell for Democratic candidates. I gave of my time and my money – both precious – to see that as many candidates from this great party were seated in the highest offices of government. I wanted to sustain the good times for the middle class and I wrapped my hopes in the idea that someday Hillary would return to the White House and take us back to the days of peace and prosperity we had with Bill. But somewhere my party took a decidedly right turn. They continued to wear their “D’s” but failed to maintain the precious ideals of the party; and on one issue after another, these counterfeit Dems failed us and they continue to do so, with each and every bill they pass.

As an example, let’s look at the alleged credit card reform recently signed by our president..."
