But what the Rush Limbaughs of the world and the Republican leadership are trying to do is getting us all angry at each other. Every day it seems like there Is a new group that we are supposed to hate. On Monday we are supposed to hate the gays. and on Tuesday we are supposed to hate the immigrants. and on Wednesday we hate the welfare recipients. and Thursday it is antiblack day. and Friday it is antiwoman day. and on and on it goes. And yet we are never focusing on the real group of people who hold the power in this country. and that is the very. very wealthy and the large multinational corporations who contribute huge sums of money to Members of this Congress. who control this Congress and write the agenda for this Congress. I thifik what all of us are saying. in different ways. is that maybe the time is long overdue when the middle class and the working people and the lowincome people and the women and everybody else began to stand together and say that there is something wrong when our standard of living is going down and when the richest people get richer.
