"...and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Weeeaaaaakkkknessss! Republicans are brown-nosing kiss-assers. Count them out. They are the reason the world is so full of incompetence.
Freedom, Jobs, Justice and Civil Rights for the 99% are none of RepubliCon's concern while in complete servitude to the Greed-Addled few in the 1% of the 1%.
They see no problem here.
Correct. They are among the 1st in line who can't see that there is no such thing as individualism as long as there is no common cause, no sense of live and let live.
Except for corporations.

Speaker of the House John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor were both invited to speak at Wednesday’s “Let Freedom Ring” celebration commemorating the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.‘s historic speech and march, but both Republican leaders declined to speak — or even attend. Republican former Presidents George H.W. Bush and his son, George W. Bush, were invited to speak as well, but both are recovering from health concerns. All living Democratic presidents, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama, all spoke at Wednesday’s historic event.
