Name One Thing The Republican Party Has Done FOR Americans

So, go ahead and name something the GOP has done to help the average American in the last 50 years. Watch the video from this Tea Party patriot ... rather eye opening.


But to be fair there are many things we can thank Republicans for:

Thank a Republican if your pay has stagnated or gone down over the past 15 years – no it is not Obama’s fault – try obstructionist Republicans in Congress that employed radical strategies to stop any help for workers.

Thank a Republican if your job went overseas.

Thank a Republican if your schools are cutting back on teachers and programs.

Thank a Republican for wars that never end.

Thank a Republican if you live everyday in fear of terrorists that are 10,000 miles away.

Thank a Republican if you can’t join a union to bargain collectively.

Thank a Republican if you are a woman and reproductive medical services in your state are very limited.

Thank a Republican if you can’t afford to send your children to post secondary education.

Thank a Republican if you will have to go very deeply into debt to get a post secondary education.

Thank a Republican if you fear living in a society that is armed to the teeth and you fear you may get shot for no reason by someone who didn’t like the way you look.

Thank a Republican if you are a woman and you can look forward to being paid 25% less for the same work as a man.

Thank a Republican if the infrastructure in you city is rapidly deteriorating and the city has no money to fix it.

Thank a Republican if you are 50 or below and fear never seeing Social Security or Medicare.

Thank a Republican if you are over 50 and fear losing Social Security or Medicare

Thank a Republican if you are a member of a minority and feel like a second class citizen.

Thank a Republican if the corruption of vast amounts of money in politics disgusts you.

I thank God that at least half the voters in the country have not succumbed to the "plantation mentality" that the democrats have been instilling in certain groups since Franklin Delano and Eleanor Roosevelt. Furthermore, anyone that would vote for Hillary is not a Patriot!

This post is on par with the one on muslims that got a coach fired, a lot of nonsense.

You can post lies and half truths all you want to , Crabby. :thumbs:

I'll defend to the death your right to do so. The first amendment requires it. If you get fired from being retired, I'll defend your right to retirement.

To prove crabby is dishonest go to {http://www.advisorperspectives.com/dshort/updates/Median-Household-Income-Update.php }

In summary as of March 27, 2015:
In real dollar terms, the median annual income is 4.5% lower ($2,580) than its interim high in January 2008 but well off its low in August 2011.

Thank a Republican if your job went overseas.

Thank democrats for the highest Corporate Taxes in the world!

{2} 1941, WWII started while democrat Franklin Roosevelt was president. More than 400,000 dead Americans!

{3} 1950, Korean War started while democrat Harry Truman was president. More than 36,000 dead Americans! Thank Republican Eisenhower who ended that useless bloodshed!

{4} 1963-64, War in Viet Nam really started with the Gulf Of Tonkin con instigated while democrat Lyndon Johnson was president. More than 58,000 dead Americans! Thank Republican Nixon who ended that useless bloodshed!


Thank a Republican if you live everyday in fear of terrorists that are 10,000 miles away.

Actually thank democrat president Bill Clinton who failed to take custody of terrorist Bin Laden when Sudan tried to hand him over!

Thank a Republican if you can’t join a union to bargain collectively.

democrats are desperate. Nothing keeps a person from joining a union other than he doesn't want to be dictated to by democrat thugs!

Thank the democrats for 55,000,000 plus unborn children slaughtered. And thank crabbie for his support of this American Holocaust.

Thank Obama who smirked and snickered after admitting there were no shovel ready jobs for that $1,000,000,000,000 {That is one trillion dollars} that the democrat Congress awarded him in 2009. Where did the money go. No patriotic American knows but Obama does!

Thank a Republican if you are 50 or below and fear never seeing Social Security or Medicare.

Thank the democrats who have arranged for payment of these funds to those who made no contribution. Thank the democrats that the so-called Trust Fund is simply unfunded liability.

Thank a Republican if you are over 50 and fear losing Social Security or Medicare

Thank Obama who by executive fiat has attempted to grant amnesty to 5 million illegals some of who will collect Social Security and Medicare without contributing.

Thank a Republican if you are a member of a minority and feel like a second class citizen.

Thank the race hustlers like the democrats, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Crabtownboy, and various others on this BB if you are made to feel less than human, if you are one they have placed back on the plantation.

Thank a Republican if the corruption of vast amounts of money in politics disgusts you.

And Obama spent more money on his 2008 presidential campaign than any Republican or any other candidate. Where did that money really come from? China? George Soros? Corrupt union bosses? Who Knows?

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

Next question, please.

It was passed by Congress that was controlled by Democrats. It was one of the good things G. Bush did when he signed it into law. It was a bipartisan vote sponsored by Democrats. The GOP was more rational in those days. With the Tea Party and the fear of the religious right this would not happen today. We need to return to a more rational time when members of Congress can come together and find compromises and stop this nonsense of stonewalling everything. I blame both parties for this, but primarily the GOP. It was they who met before Obama took office and agreed to oppose everything he proposed.

There were those on the religious right that opposed the ADA. I say shame on them.

Now there are conservative, like Rand Paul, who want to abolish the ADA.

The Republican Senate would not vote to approve the UN treaty that is based on the ADA

The US Senate's rejection of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is the clearest sign yet that reports of the death of the Republican right have been much exaggerated. Tuesday's vote was the first post-election test of the state of play in the GOP's inner civil war. It revealed that the religious extremists behind 2012's "war on women" are still in command of the Republican party.

Since the disabilities treaty attracted scant attention before its ignominious defeat at the hands of the Republican minority on Tuesday, some background is in order. The treaty, like the landmark Americans with Disabilities Act on which it was modeled, prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities and supports their full participation in society. It's an admirable goal, targeting a real problem.

Rand Paul wants to abolish the ADA ? I have not heard that.

Please show me his words. I want to see where HE stated he wants to abolish the ADA. I need only one link with his exact words. Not what someone else tells me he said. This is your claim. If he wants to abolish the ADA it should be easy to find.

Heart wrenching crabby. Simply heart wrenching to see your feigned concern for disabled Americans when you care absolutely about the most disabled of all, the unborn children. Children whose horrific slaughter at the hands of the abortionist you support! Your hypocrisy is disgusting.

He can't show you the words. Paul never said it.

As usual, he's getting everything from think progress and democratic underground. They don't quote him either, just put their own spin on his words.

I doubt that. He's trying to shame conservatives into accepting the UN's new ADA type laws by equating telling the UN to jump in a lake to hating disabled people. Lies are the only way to accomplish this.

A problem with the ADA is that it is interpreted way to liberally. For example, a person with a sore toe, gets a handicap parking tag.
Well, maybe that's a bit of exaggeration, but you get the point.

On the other extreme, truly handicap people have exploited the system. This has happened in part because lawyers seek out violations. It is so hard to comply with as the law is laid out with hundreds of requirements. It is virtually impossible to adhere to every detail.
