When are the conservative bloggers going to call out the US Chamber of Commerce? COWARDS!
Edited on Sat Jan-03-09 09:25 AM by Joanne98
Boy was this predictable! The RW fascist's FAVORITE institution, THE US CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, has filed a lawsuit against DHS over the E-Verify program. Yah know, the one that checks immigration status for employers.

And what do the RW bloggers have to say? chirp chirp

As someone who grew up on the border, I have to say...

I WAS RIGHT AND YOU WERE WRONG!

I have always said the Chamber was the one responsible but NO! It wasn't them it was the Democrats! Well now there is PROOF!

I think the conservatives owe Democrats an APOLOGY!

You were WRONG AGAIN!

More proof that conservatives are ALWAYS WRONG!

Here's a website dedicated to that very subject!

http://conservativesarealwayswrong.googlepages.com/

Suppose you had a friend you had known for many years, one who was very opinionated, who always seemed absolutely certain about everything, and yet who was always turning out to be wrong. He got you to buy stock in Enron and swore it would just keep on rising. He bet on the Yankees to sweep the Red Sox in ’04. He said mobile phones were just a fad, and before long people would give them up and go back to sending telegrams.

Would you trust this person’s powers of analysis? Would you continue putting any faith in his predictions?

“Conservatives,” or those who call themselves this nowadays, have an equally good and much longer record of faulty analysis and wrong prediction. In order to exist as a viable movement, they depend on everyone forgetting that they’re basically always wrong.

Did you know, conservatives have always been wrong for centuries?

2. I don't think they even care about illegal immigration. They just wanted to blame us
for something we weren't doing. This really pisses me off. I've been fighting with them about this subject for thirty years. Assholes!

4. Wow does that ever bring back memories...
Back in the late 50s - early 60s, the perennial Christmas presents for the men in the family were a carton or two of cigarettes and/or Old Spice after shave.

3. I don't get it.
How will they prove that their organization was directly harmed? They have to prove that it directly affects them in some specific way.

6. They have only been wrong from a HUMAN perspective
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. -- John Kenneth Galbraith
