Title: Future looks bright for Democrats
Post by: Ripsnort on March 18, 2004, 10:46:43 AM
Considering that they pander the vote of minorities in form of Gov't programs and free hand outs (Read, Welfare state), seems like their party will gain momentum with this report:

You do realize that most of the red states recieve and rely on far more welfare then the blue states rip.

who gives out how much 'welfare'?  lets count the money Bush funnles into haliburton, that's 'welfare' too isn't it?

bush gives our money away faster than any democrat.  he just gives it to rich American companie, and people from other countries, instead of taking care of our own.

So, when you read a story about the population growth of Asians and Hispanics in the United States your first thought is welfare?  Then, you start blathering off brainless partisan political garbage?  That's just sad.

I wonder if Affirmative Action will still be an active subject? ;)

Rip, does this mean we can ask for reparations in 46 years?

Yes.  A corporation being paid for it's services is welfare.

God I hope not. George Bush is living proof that AA doesnt work.

He's been getting free handouts his entire life, from Phillips Academy to Yale.

Ripsnort, you're a great pilot in AH and I respected you as a person, until now.

First off, I could give a crap if someone has respect for me or not, outside my immediate family or employer.
Secondly... I disagree with Affirmative Action. You lost respect for me because of that issue?

Let me ask you a question. Do you think that those people who disagree with Affirmative Action are racist?
