Yeah. Saw that. I'm....er....still digesting that one.

Oh sure, there are a lot of "deluded", old and young, Left or Right.

[Skuj]

I just realized that tomorrow is the second anniversary of the start of this nightmare.

Roll that tape again about the size of the crowds!! What a way to start.

It also doesn't matter to them that opinions alone don't improve the condition of people who falsely believe they are part of positive or negative change unknowingly. That change would happen anyway, but by making you feel part of it, you feel like you’ve contributed to it, even though the benefits are anyone’s guess. You don't have to be stupid to be part of this, you just need to think you are intelligent enough to be included in the process.

Trump Tweet Sunday Morning
“Nancy, I am still thinking about the State of the Union speech, there are so many options - including doing it as per your written offer (made during the Shutdown, security is no problem), and my written acceptance. While a contract is a contract, I’ll get back to you soon!”

And add a little pressure

it’s like a trump tax cut without the huge deficit!

[Skuj]

I'm surprised that the deficit isn't something that Dems talk about much. (I guess there's so many other things to talk about - part of Trump's strategy?).

The horror!

[demonrail666]

bet your life there's a dash of hot sauce in that bottle.

[Skuj]

Beto on a skateboard does not make me cringe.

[!@#$%!]

well, at least he’s not an artherosclerotic dotard!

but yeah i’d rather have someone other than beto

i agree that warren is not the most telegenic, which is unfortunate, but i like a lot of her policy proposals.

i saw a bit of the beer video a couple of weeks ago and i understood it as a way to appear like a “normal” person. which—whatever, trying a little too hard.

but she really understands the issues. her personal finance book, “all your worth”, is really a gem, and someone who understands like this what it takes to run a middle class household needs to be in charge of the things that affect those households.

her other book about the pitfalls of the middle class lifestyle is “the two income trap” and i havent read it but am familiar with its main points, which are discussed in “all your worth”, and again, she’s someone who really gets it.

well kamala harris is a good looking 54 year old

 

but i dont like antimarket “progressives”

they kill the goose.

ok i have not read her new platform yet.

but you’re right though. democracy can be idiotic lololol.

where is suchy to rail against elections? i know he still lurks.

-x

eta: warren could be great in a cabinet position. she was the brains behind the consumer financial protection bureau. yeah perhaps she could get to be the éminence grise in a future government led by some great communicator. still she has to position herself for the job.

[!@#$%!]

she launched her candidacy today—wants “medicare for all” like bernie sanders

im for a public option, but not a monolithic lack of choice...

well like i said i have to read her proposals—in detail

[!@#$%!]

ja ja ja allende... pobrecito

el problema con las utopías es que no hay tal lugar

I just hate everyone and everything. It's a non-stop constant pissing contest about which political party is the bigger bag of shit.

the human ape lives in the zoo that is civilized life

so we fight for choice of zookeeper, diet, cage or no cage, can you feed the monkeys, etc

i wish it were not necessary, but it does make a difference

 

it’s not a cure-all... but it makes a difference
