  I just consider it another thought from a SCAB.  What in hell do you care if the IBEW gives funds for trying to get workers more work.  It didn't come out of your pocket.    :groan:
Read what I wrote once again very slowly Troll.  I did not say I cared one way or the other about the IBEW giving money now did I?

You obviously didn't read your own article so whats the point?  Does it say "tax dollars?" If it wasn't going to benefit Indiana why did the IBEW give funds, especially the large amount they did? 
Now think....I know it's asking a lot of you but...think.

Welfare Drug Testing Bill Withdrawn After Amended To Include Testing Lawmakers

A Republican member of the Indiana General Assembly withdrew his bill to create a pilot program for drug testing welfare applicants Friday after one of his Democratic colleagues amended the measure to require drug testing for lawmakers.

"There was an amendment offered today that required drug testing for legislators as well and it passed, which led me to have to then withdraw the bill," said Rep. Jud McMillin (R-Brookville), sponsor of the original welfare drug testing bill...

  All you hear out of the Republican candidates is Ronald Reagan, Ronald Reagan and Ronald Reagan.  The man who left the largest deficit in history up to that time.

  You don't hear about George H. Bush and one world government and NAFTA that caused the sucking sound of our jobs being out sources.  You don't hear about George W. Bush and the two wars and trillions of dollars spent of them.  The deregulation that cause the housing bubble, and the stock market and the banks failures.

  All you hears is how they need to be put back in office to clear up the mess they caused, because they learned their lessons and they want another chance to do it again.

  Hell, no, screw the bastards.   :4th3:

Which the RWers avoid realizing actually amounts to a 15.6 trillion deficit.   :wink:

And that also goes back to my point of the tea party people's transition from couch potatoes to political activists just happening to coincide with the first election of a man of color to the office of POTUS.  Kinda' makes ya' wonder.

Doesn't make me wonder at all.  It's been obvious since the man ran for President that the backlash was white people losing their minds over the reality that a black man was running, won, and became ensconced in their 'White' House and the attendant reality that white people dominating everything in this country is in sunset.  They're scared and it shows.

I've actually seen on the news some sickening pictures of signs held by roadside volunteers here in Florida suggesting that it's time to "..put the 'white' back in the White House." 

That attitude isn't prevalent here in South Florida, but north of here, it's a very red state.  I can't believe there are still those, even on this very forum, who would deny that there's a real racial component to the anti-Obama sentiment.

  Our nation's top historians reveal that the Democratic Party gave us the Ku Klux Klan, Black Codes, Jim Crow Laws and other repressive legislation which resulted in the multitude of murders, lynchings, mutilations, and intimidations (of thousands of black and white Republicans).

  • Democrat Senator J. William Fulbright voted  against the 1965 Voting Rights  Act.
  • Southern Democrats opposed desegregation  and integration.
Democrats opposed:Republicans gave strong bi-partisan support and sponsorship for the  following
legislation:
The Republicans:

       
  • Republicans enacted civil rights laws in the 1950's and 1960's, over  the objection of Democrats.
  • Republicans founded the HBCU's (Historical Black College's and Universities) and started the NAACP to counter the racist practices of the Democrats.
  • Republicans pushed through much of the ground-breaking civil rights  legislation in Congress.
  • Republicans fought slavery and amended the Constitution to grant blacks  freedom, citizenship and the right to vote.

  • Republican President Dwight Eisenhower sent troops into the South to  desegregate the schools.
  • Republican President Eisenhower appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the Supreme Court, which resulted in the 1954 Brown vs. Board of Education decision.
  • Republican Senator Everett Dirksen from Illinois, not Democrat President Lyndon Johnson, was the one who pushed through the civil rights laws of the 1960's.

The 1964 Civil  Rights Act Roll Call Vote: In the House, only 64 percent of the Democrats (153  yes, 91  no),  but 80 percent of the Republicans  (136  yes, 35  no),  voted for it. In the Senate, while only 68 percent of the Democrats endorsed the  bill  (46  yes, 21  no),  82 percent of the Republicans voted to enact it  (27  yes, 6  no).Thaddeus Stevens, a Radical Republican that introduced legislation to give African Americans the so-called 40 acres and a mule and Democrats overwhelmingly voted against the bill.During the Senate debates on the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, it was revealed that members of the Democratic Party formed many terrorist organizations like the Ku Klux Klan to murder and intimidate African Americans voters. The Ku Klux Klan Act was a bill introduced by a Republican Congress to stop Klan Activities.History reveals that Democrats lynched, burned, mutilated and murdered thousands of blacks and completely destroyed entire towns and communities occupied by middle class Blacks, including Rosewood, Florida, the Greenwood District in Tulsa Oklahoma, and Wilmington, North Carolina to name a few.History reveals that it was Abolitionists and Radical Republicans such as Henry L. Morehouse and General Oliver Howard that started many of the traditional Black colleges, while Democrats fought to keep them closed. Many of our traditional Black colleges are named after white Republicans.After exclusively giving the Democrats their votes for the past 25 years, the average African American cannot point to one piece of civil rights legislation sponsored solely by the Democratic Party that was specifically designed to eradicate the unique problems that African Americans face today.As of 2004, the Democrat Party (the oldest political party in America) has never elected a black man to the United States Senate, the Republicans have elected three.
