Now these are the Republicans I remember, instead of Union bashers they were Union supporters. Problem is the Right Wing sound machine and the 2 billion dollar a year anti-union industry. Have you figured it out yet retards?And back then the GOP platform that successfully re-elected Dwight Eisenhower also included such SOCIALIST! STATIST! BIG GOVERNMENT! language such as:
"A continuously vigorous enforcement of anti-trust laws"
"Assure equal pay for equal work regardless of Sex"
"Revise and improve the Taft-Hartley Act so as to protect more effectively the rights of labor unions, management, the individual worker, and the public"
Don't forget back then the highest tax rate was 91% as well, the rich actually got taxed up the wazzoo cause thats the only thing that makes them pay their workers!!!!

Thankfully, the mutual loathing that has come to exist between the Republican Party and the vast majority of unions does not make union members fertile ground for a Republican comeback...

KENNY, YOU DID IT AGAIN. It is so obvious that it will make our favorite Ronnie lover bang his head into something, and hard. But, don't forget, even in cartoon form....these people cannot read. At least not for comprehension.

It's interesting that they have to point out with their first bullet that it's the "GREATEST PROSPERITY IN HISTORY WITHOUT WAR."
The way things have changed it must have been prosperity for the wrong people "WITHOUT WAR."
Prosperity for the wrong people with unions.
Prosperity for the wrong people with "job security" and "opportunity."
Prosperity for the wrong people with regulated "best working conditions in history."
Prosperity for the wrong people with an "expanded social security."
Prosperity for the wrong people with "high take home pay."
Prosperity for the wrong people with "equal pay for equal work."
Prosperity for the wrong people if the "rights of labor unions, management, individual workers and the public" are protected.
Prosperity for the wrong people with high marginal tax rates on the rich.
You know, this a very good illustration of who and what the G.O.P. stood for in the 50s and 60s. They were for the things the poster champions because they were a party that represented all Americans.
This is a very good illustration of who and what the G.O.P. must stand for now. They are against all the things the poster champions today because they are now a party that represents a small group of people who get no benefit from these policies. In fact these policies of labor and individual rights are at odds with the greed of the people the Republican party now represents. The small %. Small in numbers, small in compassion, small in patriotism, small in honesty.
We can easily recognize that the Republican party at one time championed all the things this poster espouses because they were representing the American worker and the American people as a whole.
They are now a party dead set against all the things they were all for when they represented Americans as a whole.
So who do they represent now?

This poster is great. Where were the democrats on the issue of labor during this period? Was Ayn Rand's book and pundits like Wlliam F. Buckley Jr. responsible for the GOP's turning away from labor and becoming the Archie Bunker party given the civil rights advancements of the country? There was sort of a flip-flop in beliefs and policies from the late !950's to the late 60's and it has progressed farther right to where we are now.

Grover Norquist was born in 1956, a lobbyist who now owns much of the GOP. Grover is just one example of how the GOP has lost its way.

karma is an SOB, these evil mofo's get what they deserve in the end. Ronnie died in the shadows not remembering anything about his life, and prob was drooling mess in the end. Cheney has had 8 - 10 heart surgeries, he must be the terminator because hell will not have him and until recently he had NO HEARTBEAT. If cheney were a democrat the crazy bible beaters would swear he is the actual demon seed from hell. Well, maybe they are right about that one, lol.
