		<description>I am not a WalMart democrat.

The employment practices of Walmart are part of what is very much wrong with America these days.

Start with sweatshop labor from Bagladesh and China. Add in beating children , making them work double shifts and sleep on the floor, no proper toilets, and certainly no union organization.

How can you make a t-shirt in Asia, spend all kinds of gas shipping it halfway around the world, then still sell it at a price that beats out even non-union American workers?  Inhuman labor practices.

And what about Walmart&#039;s own employees?  They tell their employees how to apply for Medicaid instead of providing proper health insurance. 

Ten years ago everyone in my neighborhood had health insurance. Now everyone is battling health problems without insurance while making half the wage they were ten years ago.

That&#039;s why the middle class is disappearing--we don&#039;t just have to shop at Walmart, we have to &lt;i&gt;work&lt;/i&gt; there too.  How long do the wealthy in this country think they can last without the middle class to buy goods that is the economic engine of this country?  Oh, I forgot... that economic engine is now driving India and China.

It would be very easy to pass legislation requiring all  imports to be made in humane conditions. Oh, I forgot, China holds all of our war debt.</description>

I&#039;m so angry.  
He thinks he&#039;s sooo cute. Period jokes, lipstick,pigs, smelly fish, oh, sweetie, you&#039;ve gone too far.

		<description>373 TrishfromCanada 

&quot;Can someone explain why its so bad when Bo says lipstick on a pig but its forgiven when hillary supporters say it.

Because both are rude and sexist no matter who says it, yet I don’t recall any on you yelping when it was directed at Brazile who regardless of who she is, is a woman&quot;

~~~~~~~~~~~

There is a huge difference Trish. First -- the Hillary supporters never shouted that out at Brazile. It was Harriet Christian who shouted it out after a vote to return full voting rights to Floridians were denied and the argument was being made that the votes for half the people was better than getting nothing and we should be happy with that compromise. Harriet shouted out &quot;It&#039;s still lipstick on a pig.&quot; 

The difference Trish is that it was never aimed at a specific person... it was aimed at the policies that were being painted as fair when they were anything but fair.

That&#039;s why it was ok when the Hillary people shouted it. 

The difference is Obama has a history of using ambiguous comments to attack a person. Biden stated the same day that no amount of lipstick could make Palin&#039;s record look good... so you know that Obama&#039;s directives and narratives was to turn the lipstick remark around as a personal attack on Palin. Probably because her pitbull with lipstick bothered him and his male ego and he can never resist bringing women down to the level of a pig.

That&#039;s why it&#039;s ok for the Hillary people and not ok for Obama. I just stopped in to look over the site for link information but couldn&#039;t resist giving my 2¢ on that question cause the misinformation pissed me off.

I&#039;m done.</description>

		<description>Hillsthe one: Hi...I am doingfine tonight, although I am very tired as I have been on computer all day and I will need to check out...I think your idea about the call ins on 9/11 is a great idea!  Truly do...
And as far as Bill meeting with the liar, fraud, I do not know what to think...I would not meet with this sleze , Obama,if he were the last garbage collector on earth and the garbage men had been on strike in the city for a year....He is a vile, amoral, empty self- serving total and absolute fraud.  I pray every day that the Spirit of Truth fills the minds of the voters to enlighten them re this dangerous man. And I think that will or is happening. Good night, dear Hill....Sleep well all!
Tonight on here was so funny...it felt like an ole time slumber party...the comments hilarious...Thanks all you great, grand, charming PUMAS.  See you later in the day...</description>

		<description>I am trying to find the link  for the pig that South Jersey did...I don&#039;t remember the post #

I agree - anyone who thought the &quot;lipstick&quot; and the 
&quot;fish&quot;  Joke from Obama was not about women, they must live in Fairy land.  Let him continue to focus on fighting the &quot;little woman&quot;.  I think whoever is handling Palin is brilliant for keeping her out of the media... you have to keep them wanting for more.. by giving them Palin in small doses..   You don&#039;t want to OD like the people are over dosing on Obama.  I love how he  dead pans when he delivers his ridicule lines.. he thinks he&#039;s so smooth.</description>

		<description>Ok, I am going to bed, but I want to leave one BIG thought for you all to really absorb and promulgate:

**Obama is NOT presidential.**

You can list 100 reasons why, of course.  Do so.  All over the net.  Just remember:  &quot;Obama is NOT presidential.&quot;

K, gnight pumas.
