If all of the laws and regulations that both parties allowed to expire starting in the days of Ronnie had been kept in place we would not be in the mess we’re in today.

A GOP-er with a paintbrush? What were you thinking? He had Carlos go it, who then left in disgust.

“There’s no pleasing you people! You complain when we give you all the crappy low-paying jobs, and then you complain when we take them away!”

No. You don’t have to be minority. The oligarchy looks upon “everybody else” as servants.

My uncle had one of these. It wasn’t considered racist back then.

I’m surprised so many people remember these statues… or do I just hang out in the wrong neighborhoods? Funny thing, my uncle actually did have one and actually did paint the face pink because he actually did think the thing was racist. (If I remember right, his wife wanted to buy the thing because they had managed to make enough money to build a house big enough so it didn’t look silly.)
