more lies. par for the course. Goofball Althea likes to make it personal
even when he's dead wrong (as usual)

pain meds are draconian down here, but that is nationwide- although Scott's draconian war on pain
does take on a life of it's own.

I've kept my AARP for $80/month and it works fine for me - next year I go on Medicare

since when do Dems give a damn about debt?

You can thank the Dems for that crappy budget too - they held Defense budget hostage to yet more worthless domestic spending in order to recover from DoD cuts due to sequestor.

Paul Ryan gets as much to blame as the Dems do, to be factual..

Here we are in a booming economy -GDP should hit 3% for the year, wages are finally coming up
and there are more jobs then applicants. Do you seriously think Congress will not extend individual tax cut rates?

The article is "alarmist" to pt it mildly

It is one of the most mindboggling things about the entire Trump clown show.

His supporters are actually and in fact, braindead. It's amazing. Trump has mind-fucked them.

Trump insults them to their faces. He tells them that they're so fucking stupid that he could kill someone in broad daylight and they would still support him .. and they all go, 'Yup."

If a politician said that about me, I'd take that as an insult. But I guess they can't be insulted by Trump. Amazing.

133k according to a thread today. Manufacturing jobs have increased by 300k+ under Trump - you know the ones that Obama said "are not coming back" I'll take 300k new manufacturing jobs for 130k offshoring any day.

The American economy usually always does better under democrats.

Sure, blame democrats for Trump's budget. Let's see how well that laughable stupidity sells.

I'm not blaming Dems -I'm blaming both Ryan and Dems - who else negotiated that budget? It wasn't Trump.

Trump signed it because our planes were literally falling out of the sky due to lack of parts.
That had to take precedence over any other concerns

Years and years of teachers' raises and kids have gotten less educated in this country. They just keep throwing more money at it though. :mad:

You working any Stand Up To Cancer on the 7th?

I got commits on 6 blocks. last year call volume was off the hook + it's so much fun taking donation calls.
I try to thank the callers personally * on behalf of all involved* I like to make sure they get a thank you-
i'm not sure if the IVR does it in que and I never got any CE's for doing it
 
kids get brainwashed,and they do not learn the Socratic method.
Too much teaching to the test and whack-a-doodle socialist teachers who re-inforce millenials sense of entitlement

Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum on Sunday thanked billionaires George Soros and Tom Steyer for helping him score his upset win in last week’s Florida Democratic gubernatorial primary.

“I’ll tell you, I’m obviously deeply appreciative of Mr. Soros, as well as Mr. Steyer, both men whom I’ve known for some time,” Mr. Gillum said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

The Democratic megadonors and their associated groups directed millions to the campaign of Mr. Gillum, who edged out former Rep. Gwen Graham in the crowded Democratic primary. He faces Republican Rep. Ron DeSantis in the November election.

At the same time, Mr. Gillum insisted that his gubernatorial campaign was driven by small donations from “everyday folks.”

“[O]ur campaign was really propped up by a lot of small contributions, including my mother, who was on auto-deduct of $20 a month into our campaign,” said Mr. Gillum. “In the first two days of this general election, our campaign has been buoyed this first week, raising over $2 million by everyday folks, not big contributions, but everyday folks sowing a seed into our race.”

Without Mr. Soros and Mr. Steyer, however, it’s fair to ask whether Mr. Gillum would have been able to compete against his better-known, wealthier opponents, including former Miami Beach Mayor Phillip Levine, who spent $29 million of his own money and finished third.

n April, Mr. Gillum’s campaign raised $450,000, more than half of which came from Mr. Soros in the form of a donation to Forward Florida, a pro-Gillum committee, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

In the campaign’s final two weeks, Mr. Soros and Mr. Steyer directed $650,000 to Forward Florida. Mr. Soros chipped in another $250,000 in July, while Mr. Steyer’s NextGen American gave $500,000 between July 30 and Aug. 14, Politico reported.

Mr. Gillum said that “what is going to help us win on Nov. 6 is these everyday folks deciding to sow a seed into this race.”

Yes, it was non-stop callers last year for me, too. I've done that and couldn't imagine any CE's for it.
