It must be annoying to be a republicans. You have to disagree with almost everything Obama says but then he mentions the military and BOOM you gotta stand up smile & applaud him. Gotta be quite annoying.

It is a disgrace. No applause for equal pay or minimum wage increase? but raise for soldiers? I get it that Republicans are playing some politics but come on, are they that insensitive?
equal pay, as in what we have in Quebec is counter-productive.  There are more women being top earner in an american family than in Quebec. Minimum wage increase just don't improve the poor's conditions that much, so it's just something to look up well to the electorate with no real effect.  Eventually, companies will just delocalize their low-pay jobs to places where it's even lower.  We should instead push for higher education and more specialized jobs that are harder to delocalize than the lady sewing pants in a Montreal sweatshop.

Whoa, Viper, you finally made a post that makes sense to me.
I guess even a broken clock is right once a day.

I'm really looking forward to watching the GOP responses to the Pope addressing Congress later this year :lol:

Edit: I wonder if he'll speak to Congress before or after the rumoured Mass at the border fence :lol:

Well, yeah.  But it's not like you'd see him at a Tea Party rally were he here.

He's sort of the other side of the coin on, "English as official language".
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I disagree, Viper is as right as you.

I think we need to give them both a 100 question survey to ascertain the truth of this.
