Remember, the chair of the Democratic Party, Ed Rendell, was the district attorney who framed Mumia Abu-Jamal. Neither the Democrats nor the Republicans have anything to offer the workingclass, those of us who sell our labor for less than $70,000 per year. For more on Ed Rendell, see:

To JoJo: There is abundant evidence to suspect that Mumia is not, in fact, a cop-killer and was instead framed. My understanding is: I am not sure that Mumia is innocent, but I AM sure that he should have, at the very least, a new trial. The original trial was a farce and much new relevant evidence has come up.

To poster: can you shut up already about the $70,000 thing? What a completely arbitrary number! Are you saying that when I made $65,000 I was "working class"? I'd call that middle-class or upper middle-class, and the important sub-category of "professional" bears mentioning. But when I received a raise to $70,000, was I no longer working class? Would I fall back into the working class if inflation reduces the buying power of that $70,000? If I get another raise to $75,000, does that make me part of the ruling class?

This $70,000 line epitomizes "Stupid Marxism" for me.

You're not puzzled. Just stupid. I like yoyo. He's much funnier than you and sticks the the issues more. I can see why you're jealous of him.

his name is westly cook, and YES, he killed a cop. he changed his name to mumia abu-jamal for who knows what stupid reason. his mama gives him a good christian name and he has to go and change it to some damn muslim name. i spent 5 years in vietnam trying to kill these goddamn people and this ass changes his name to one of them. fuck him!
