    Apparently Keith Ellison and DWS thought it politically advantageous to ignore the Gold Star wife, Carryn Owens, during the tribute to her husband.

    Is what what the Marxist Democrats are looking forward to perpetrating on the American people over the next four years? If so they are *NOT* going to win back very many voters in either 2018 or 2020 even if Trump doesn't get a new health insurance system set up!

    They hate traditional patriotic Americans. This Democrat party is not the party of FDR, Truman and JFK. These are nasty filthy communists.

    Both my grandfather, and father, democrats, swore FDR was a communist ... social security. I suppose it can be debated, though I never won the argument. I maintain FDR was just another oppoortunistic panderer, with no commie sympathies.

    I don't think FDR, Truman and JFK were communists. I think Debbie and Ellison arel

    Ellison and Schultz did not acknowledge that because it was a weak attempt on Trump's behalf, exploiting a victim of the fallen, to make himself look heartfelt and genuine. That's not negative feedback, that's just reality. More Americans should have just sat down, and not given into this charade.

    You think Mrs. Owen would let herself be *EXPLOITED*?

    Nothing like demeaning a Gold Star wife, is there?

    "A Jewess, and a Muslim ... communist? Quite the odd couple."

    They are both Marxists. They believe in class warfare, redistribution of wealth, and central planning of the economy. The three most basic tenets in the Communist Manifesto.

    Where are all the Marxist Democrats condemning Ellison and DWS?

    If Marxist Democrats didn't have double standards they wouldn't have any standards at all!

    FDR *was* a Marxist. Class warfare, redistribution of wealth, and central planning of the economy. All Marxist tenets.

    Maybe they were disgusted with his hypocrisy?

    And no country has prospered more than the USA, since his time in office and his policies.
    Until GWB that is.

    Dude that particular set of hustlers were getting rich selling visas to Muslims. And essentially illegal activity. I have every respect for their sons I have no respect for hustlers of that stripe.

    It helps when the entire world is either in ashes or backwards.

    Looking at the Roman economy compared to Carthage after it was decimated is an equivalency.

    Perhaps this premise is based on information that is not entirely true. I know this will not move many who need to believe that this happened, but for those with an open mind here are several sources that dispute this argument:

    but members of both parties — including Bernie Sanders, Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and Keith Ellison — could be seen upright and applauding, in either video or still images taken from various angles, even if they didn’t remain on their feet as long as their Republican counterparts…
    A photo showed U.S. Reps. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida, the former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, and Keith Ellison of Minnesota, the current deputy chairman of the DNC, seated together. (Snopes determined the image was taken more than a half an hour prior to the ovation.)

    http://www.snopes.com/democrats-stand-seal-widow/

    Democrats weren’t too thrilled with Trump’s speech, to be sure. But upon reviewing recordings of the speech, there’s ample evidence that Democrats did stand — just not as long as their Republican counterparts. And that’s a fairly typical thing for the opposition party to do, an expert told us.

    http://www.politifact.com/punditfac...s-falsely-accuse-democrats-refusing-stand-go/

    – Headlines claiming the Democrats did not stand are false. From what we can tell via the video footage of the event, all politicians in the crowd had stood at one point, though many Democrats returned to their seats before their Republican counterparts.

    Here are a few more that disagree with the premise:

    WW2 and the economic boom that it created in the US lasted decades. Eventually Europe and Asia got their infrastructure and their economies back on track and the US economic domination started trending downwards.


    If you want to speak of his economic record prior to the start of war production, you will not find much, if anything, to highlight as a positive. I've seen many suggestions that his economic policies and the The Deal softened the landing from the Great Depression, but also extended it. Much like what I have seen from Obamas stimulus package.

    FDR was more a Communist than any President in recent history.
