A blue collar traitor is a laborer who supports the G.O.P. Eventhough Republicans are anti-labor and unions support Democrats, some blue collar workers actually vote Republican.
Blue collar workers work hard for their money and they are the backbone of a strong American economy. They actually make stuff (manufacture products, build buildings etc.) many of these laborers belong to unions, so they can help protect each other from greedy corporations.
These blue collar people vote for Democrats because they are the party that supports the working class. The Republicans only look out for the richest 2% of the population and support the big corporations that finance their campaigns.

Congressman John Boehner (R-Ohio) is another kind of blue collar traitor. He grew up in a blue collar family and actually joined the Republican anti-labor party!

Get the blue collar traitormug. American Institute of Greed (formerly know as American International Group)
One of those heinously corrupt organizations that takes money grubbing scum to new levels!
These bastards took more than $160Billion in government bailout money and then gave top executives more than $160Million in bonuses! What kind of shithead would give multimillion dollar bonuses to the fuckwits that drove the company into the ground?!

The executives running the American Institute of Greed A.I.G. should all be sitting with Bernie Madoff in jail for a 150 years!

Get the A.I.G.mug. The amount of money American taxpayers have pay to cover the taxes Walmart avoids. This term also applies to the increased drain on taxpayer funded programs by underpaid and uninsured Walmart employees.
Walmart sets up stores in buildings they "rent" from their own shell companies. They pay "rent" to themselves, then deduct it from their taxes. This money grubbing scum scheme helped Walmart avoid $3.39 Billion in state taxes from 1999-2005.
Also taxpayers will pay $9.1 Billion over the next 5 years to cover Walmart employee health care costs. They have almost 800,000 workers without health care coverage. Many of Walmart's employees are forced to use Medicaid or just show up at an emergancy room. This kind of bullshit taxes us all by increasing the cost of healthcare for all of us!

The Walmart tax hurts the whole economy and helps keep them rich while shifting the costs to the people. Their Pro-China attitude towards merchandise hurts American jobs and their heinous tax avoidance schemes also hurt America's bottom line! Here's the real cost of the WalMart Tax-- If WalMart paid all of the taxes they owed in 2005: 318,440 uninsured children would have health coverage; 21,963 elementary school students would have new classrooms; and 9,499 additional police officers could be patrolling our streets! "SAVE MONEY--LIVE BETTER," obviously this doesn't really apply to the shoppers only to the Walmart corporation!

Get the WalMart Taxmug. U.S. Congressman Joe Barton (R-Texas) was the lead
Republican at the congressional hearings about the bp oil spill.
As his opening remarks with bp's Tony Hayward, he actually apologized to him for President Obama's "harsh treatment." Barton actually said Obama's insisting on bp setting up a $20 Billion victim compensation fund was a "shakedown."
The appropriate shock and awe followed. Even John Boehner was embarrassed and Barton eventually apologized for his own assisnine insensitive stupidity.

Some of Rep. Barton's Republican colleages were surprised to hear he was a bp sympathizer, but many of his corporate owned colleages agreed with him. However if you look at his $1.4 million in campaign contributions from big oil you can begin to understand.

Get the bp sympathizermug. The eight long years from Jan. 20, 1981-Jan. 20,1989. The Republican president, Ronald Wilson Reagan worked hard as commander in chief in the war on the middle class. The heinous eCONomic policy called "trickle down economics" or Reganomics cut taxes on the big businesses and the rich. This shifted the tax burden to the middle class and tripled the national debt. Dennis Miller described "trickle down" best when he acknowledged this truth: "they admit it-- they're gonna piss on you!"
Along with the terrible eCONomic policy, Ronald Reagan worked to destroy unions (remember air traffic controllers' strike?) During the Reagan Administration, the U.S. backed Saddam Hussein during his war with Iran and helped to establish the Taliban to help Afganistan fight off the Soviet Union. (Funny how the G.O.P. changed course on this)

Overall, the Reagan Administration was an awful, inept or just plain evil bunch of crooks. The bad effects of this era are still haunting us 20 years later.
The fact that theRepublican Party idolizes Reagan today is mind boggling!

Get the Reagan Administrationmug. An awesome horror fiction writer! Bentley Little was born in Arizona after his mother watched the premiere of Psycho. He is a Bram Stoker Award winner, who can count Stepen King and Dean Koontz as fans.
"A master of the macabre"--Stephen King
"Rock-'em, shock-'em contempory terror fiction" --Dean Koontz
"A master of the macabre"--Stephen King
"Rock-'em, shock-'em contempory terror fiction" --Dean Koontz
Bentley Little takes on ordinary subjects and exploites and exaggerates their possiblities for nefarious activities. In The Store he looks behind the scenes of a Wal-mart-like mega store and the terrible effects it has on a small town. In The Policy, he looks a the very real scenario of insurance companies controlling and ruining lives. Most of Bentley Little's books are scary because they seem like they actually could happen.

Get the Bentley Littlemug. An Australian-born computer hacker and founder of wikileaks.
Assange considers espionage and cyber terrorism a good thing. He seems to think all government and corporate secrets should be exposed with no regard for who may be harmed or how many lives could be lost.
Wikileaks is damaging fragile international relationships that were on the mend after George W Bush left office. ASSange is arrogant, paranoid and dangerous to government and corporations worldwide!
"Don't shoot the messenger for revealing uncomfortable truths." --Julian ASSange 2010
