This man has cojones!
Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) called it like it is on the House floor this past Monday when he said that Republicans blocking the reauthorization of unemployment benefits are trying to revive the America of the Great Depression era.
"There was no unemployment insurance back then," Grayson said, in one of the more colorful speeches on the issue. "There was no State benefits back then. There was no help for the people who had no jobs. All they could do, like my grandfather, in desperate straits, supporting a family of seven, was to go to the dump and desperately try to find something he could sell.
"That, my friends, is the America that the Republicans are trying to revive. The America of desperate straits, and for them cheap labor. The America where people have nothing, hope for nothing, and are desperate to live to the next day. That is what the Republicans are trying to resurrect by blocking unemployment insurance day after day, week after week, and now month after month."
Welcome to a Third World USA people.
Now, can we make this man the next president?
