"Bastard Republicans..!"

I couldn't put it better, myself...

But even doing all that wasn't enough to satisfy the bastard Republicans. These Senate vampires wanted blood. Blue collar blood. You see, they weren't opposed to the bailout because they believed in the free market or capitalism. No, they were opposed to the bailout because they're opposed to workers making a decent wage. In their rage, they were driven to destroy the backbone of this country, not because the UAW hadn't given back enough, but because the UAW hadn't given up.

Wow, Moore has said some pretty stupid things in the past but this one is pretty close to the top

Don't think it is stupid at all, considering the Republican party track record when it comes to workers and their abiding hatred or Unions.

My impression of the Republicans, gained through following the election, is that the leaders want followers who will swallow anything and do it for nothing.
Any group so badly organized that they bring in such an awful candidate as Palin, at the last minute, has got a lot of rebuilding to do.
I was a Union member and Delegate for many years and everything about the Republican Party attitude to people raises the hackles.
