Re: POTUS 45.0: It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.

There's not one single point at which the parties switch sides. They both made gradual movements, largely starting at the very early points of the 1900s, and completed the switch around the passing of the ERA. If you search the web, you can find some pretty interesting and objective historical blogs on this subject.

era passed?

District 2, now known as, "If you want a slave, you should be able to get a slave" territory.

Yep. They'll get what they voted for. The good news is he wants to work on Health Care. I await his good ideas on the topic. I've yet to hear one from the right side of the aisle in 6 years.

Or maybe it's just that 90% of Americans, having been spoiled rotten since birth with no concepts of delayed gratification or compromise, let alone personal sacrifice or living in service (myself surely included) are unable to accept living in a society with differing views. Seems kind of hopeless if the only thing that could cheer people up is widespread famine or something similarly trying.

No offense, but that's an absolute load of horse****. It's not a virtue to say "Let's compromise and say it's all good because that cop didn't murder the infant in the back seat of Philando Castile's car too". Or to say "Well, some poor people get to vote, so that's good enough". If you think believing in basic tenets like equality make one "spoiled rotten", then I think the problem is with you.

that's too low for bernie and pocahontas :)

Sorry, but as much as I was not a Bernie guy, he did state during the primary debates something to the effect of, "what was the top tax rate during the Eisenhower era, 90%? I wouldn't raise taxes that high, I'm not THAT much of a socialist. :p"

I wonder since Trump has to be inaugurated at 12 PM Est., in just ten minutes, and Schumer is currently speaking, if he's going to filibuster the inauguration. :D

May as well have sworn in Pence as POTUS. We all know it's gonna happen.

You know, as funny as the Mormon faith is, the Tabernacle Choir is one of the country's great treasures*.

Re: POTUS 45.0: It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.

This speech is far too Presidential so far. Freepers are going to be POed that he didn't immediately point to Obama, Michelle, and the Clintons, and order their arrest. :D
