</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>"Republicans brandished divisive social issues in order to distract Americans from their efforts to funnel taxpayer money to Republican political donor corporations." 
</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>Think about it.  In the last 12 years did we see a federal ban on gay marriage?  Did we see a federal ban on abortion?  Did we see a federal insertion of prayer into public schools?  Did we see a repeal of the 1964 Civil Rights Act?  Did we see a federal codification of marriage as between one man and one woman?  Did we see a flag burning Amendment come out of Congress? Did we see English enshrined as our national language?  Did we see any of the Republicans vaunted social agenda get enacted at all?
</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>Republicans controlled Congress for 12 years.   Republicans controlled the federal government totally for the last 6 years.  And yet not one piece of their social agenda was enacted.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/397616A4-15FD-4C4E-86F3-E1790BE6ED7E/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
