Mainecat Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 “Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home--but not for housing. They are strong for labor--but they are stronger for restricting labor's rights. They favor minimum wage--the smaller the minimum wage the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all--but they won't spend money for teachers or for schools. They think modern medical care and hospitals are fine--for people who can afford them. They consider electrical power a great blessing--but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They think American standard of living is a fine thing--so long as it doesn't spread to all the people. And they admire of Government of the United States so much that they would like to buy it.” ― Harry Truman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer254 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Funny how you left out the beginning and the end of this, but that's just another way for you elites to send out disingenuous messages. LOL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for tomorrow! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted April 10, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted April 10, 2018 It was part of a political rally speech trying to win Hubert Humphrey a senate seat. Is he going to post a Hillary speech next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted April 10, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted April 10, 2018 This whole time I thought in the early 60's the parties flip flopped. So does that mean Truman was really a Republican? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
