RE: FALSE EQUIVALENCY - BOTH PARTIES ARE THE SAME As the weeks continues to unfold we are likely to see more outrageous legislation put forth in Republican controlled states and more protests as citizens attempt to be heard. No doubt we will also continue to hear cynics who blame both political parties and insist that it does not matter which party is in control. Well it may be true that it does not matter who you vote for unless you are a woman, a student, a racial, ethnic or religious minority, an immigrant, a minimum wage worker, a homeless person, a middle income parent, a teacher, a gay person, an unemployed person, a senior citizen, a small business owner, a food stamp recipient, a person who needs medical care, or a disabled person. If you fit one or more of those categories, then the difference between having Republicans or Democrats in charge of your state involves real life consequences that do in fact matter. - Keith Brekhus, PoliticusUSA
