1. Thank you

just what this old tired ass needs is to hear is more talks like this. Even though I'm past my prime, I no longer can work, I can still care about those who are out there working their tails off.

4. To every thing comes a season...

If ours is now to serve as cheerleaders instead of quarterbacks, that's okay. We can still load the ammunition, so to speak.

8. I finally had a chance to watch the video!

He's so right, no one should work full time and live in poverty. If and when the minimum wage is raised, coupled with affordable care, these 2 things alone will help people immensely. The quality of peoples lives will change for the better.

Thank you so much for posting this freshwest.

9. Warren and Obama continue to be on the same page:

When the Tea Party shut down the federal government with glee, denying UE or paying our debts and the rest of the crazy, to end Obamacare, Obama said he could not believe the GOP truly wanted to deny millions healthcare.

He knew some of them did, and why they did, but he gave them the chance to do the right thing. Warren is calling them out for what they are doing. She shows the failure of their sick logic, and makes the moral call.

If the GOP does not listen, many others will. Enjoy that plain speaking there. I wish I could find the entire video.

10. Shhhh. Some DUers want constant strife between the two.

Thanks for the videos freshwest and thanks for dismantling the Dems don't speak out meme.
