So, you're saying that Roosevelt didn't try to put people to work during the depression? Hmmm...Kennedy didn't support unions? Hmmm...
Nice try, but cons considered work to be pro-business, and Kennedy wasn't a con.  Back in the 1950's, each party was predominantly con or lib, but in each party you'd find liberal Democrats in the minority and Republican conservatives in the minority.  Don't try to pretend that the parties prior to LBJ were even comparable to today's polarized parties.  Not even close.

Today cons don't even stand for what cons used to stand for anymore, so don't pretend they do.

You said:
The Democratic Party didn't start helping the working man until the lib-con party switchover after the LBJ administration.  Get your facts straight.

I understand English pretty good and i know what "didn't start helping the working man until the lib-con party switchover after the LBJ administration" means. It means you didn't have your facts straight. I did. Try not wiggle around your words and go slink away with your tail between your legs.
You haven't even got the backbone to admit that the Dems under Obama have the worst record of cozying up to the banking frauds like corzine that have robbed Americans. Instead you try to find some way to divert away from Obama's criminal associations.
The Founding Fathers established the first Dept. of Homeland Security. They called it "a Well Regulated Militia."

:whistle:


...

This isn't the same democratic party of the 50s that helped the working man. Now the Democrats steal from the working peoples and gives to the rich.
The Democratic Party of the 50's didn't help the working man. The Democratic Party of the 1950's fought for segregation and slave wages because the Democratic Party of the 1950's were conservatives. The Republicans had some conservatives but it was the party of abolition and liberals.  The Democratic Party didn't start helping the working man until the lib-con party switchover after the LBJ administration.  Get your facts straight.

Adlai Stevenson was a conservative?  Get your facts straight.
Zionism is the National Liberation Movement of the Jewish People.
