Almost everynight now, I turn on the TV to find some special interest group, Democratic Presidential canditate, or some other liberal whining about how bad things are in this country and how our Social Programs aren't working need reformed and how the American people want change.
Which party vows to be the advocate for the poor and deprived and the minorities EVERY election?
Which party promises change to bring relieve to those who suffer most in this country year after year since the Great Depression?
Which party designed, lobbied for, implemented, and is most active in overseeing programs like Welfare, EPA, Social Security, etc...?
Which party has offered the most empty promises?
Kind of ironic isn't it?

well... things have gotten quite a bit better since the depression for minorities and the poor... so maybe some of them are working...
but most people think that things can always be better and most people's goal is to keep improving...
what Republican programs have been initiated that never needed updating or changing?

Actually, most of those programs work quite well--when properly administered and funded.
So, of course, the Bushbots ignore the fact that the GOP has spent the last 12 years gutting such programs and, since Bush has been in office, appointing incompetant jerks like Mike Brown (the horse guy) as head of FEMA.
And then after they've screwed the program up completely, whining "social programs are failing"
Pathetic.

No. Social risk-free practices has by no skill ignored a charge. a lot of human beings remember on those funds. truthfully you spotted the uproar between the tea partiers over the hint of a tenet that their Medicare might get replaced. The courses artwork. investment must be revised to fulfill changing circumstances. additionally, a lot of human beings might have not any scientific coverage if it weren't for Medicaid. Fannie and Freddie are nonetheless mortgage-finance giants yet their enthusiasm for taking part in has been cooled by making use of the reality that they at the instant are below government administration. Your allegations are without benefit.

Well, we don't have to worry about your party, as you would do NOTHING for the poor but rob them!
And things are bad. The poor have taken 12 straight years of hits while you guys line your pockets with our tax money! You even cut VA hospitals budgets!
If you are going to preach, pick a subject you know something about, and the working class and poor are not among them!
You don't havew a clue about what your party has done to the poor!

This is typical conservative blather. They hate the idea of a thriving middle class instead of a massive and exploitable underclass.
So, indifferent to wanting social programs to succeed in the first place, they incompetently bungle administration of the programs, "privatizing" them so their friends get rich through waste and fraud.
Then they turn around and say "see, government programs don't work!"
They do, just not when you have feckless clowns running them.

Social programs aren't failing - thier succeeding beautifully. They're only failing if you think thier purpose is to /solve/ the problems they address. Like if you believe welfare is supposed lift people out of poverty, you might judge it a failure...
