The REAL Story On Syrian Refugees

October 25, 2016October 25, 2016

Trump wants you to think Secretary Clinton’s on the wrong side of the “Syrian refugee” issue. I dare you to watch this “60 Minutes” report and agree. You will instead be relieved to know you are not at risk from these refugees; and proud that, in admitting them, America is being just who most of us want her to be.


And then there’s Trump’s rant over ninth-month abortions.  Like so much else in his campaign, it is ill-founded.  (If you doubt that, click here.)

He “stirs hatred and feeds self-vindication, and whether on paper it bears inspection for consistency, logic or soundness is immaterial.”

He’s “a past master at throwing up verbal smoke screens . . . knows the effectiveness of massive oratorical assaults . . . knows how to give pledges that will be broken . . . his crudity frequently borders on downright vulgarity.”

(Those quotes are not about Trump; they’re from the foreword to the 1941 book of Hitler’s speeches he kept by his bedside.)


Click here to vote, here to volunteer, here to contribute (yes, even now!) — and here to see what Republicans are saying about Trump and Clinton.  Help break the gridlock in Washington, elect a Democratic Congress, and see the things most Americans want finally enacted into law: massive job creation revitalizing our crumbling infrastructure; a higher minimum wage; the comprehensive immigration reform that passed the Senate 68-32; student loan refinancing — all of which would boost our economy and reduce inequality.  (And more: sensible gun safety measures; lower prescription drug prices; campaign finance reform; restoration of the Voting Rights Act.)

Quote of the Day

"We've forgotten all the sacrifices that the people who've gone before us made to give us this wonderful life that we have. We accept it; we take it for granted; we think it's our birthright. The facts are, it's precious, it's fragile -- it can disappear."

Ross Perot, 1988
