About that no outrage over that Trump cake? Little known fact: Racists aren’t a protected class in any political jurisdiction in the US, so it’s completely legal to deny them service for being racists.
Oh, snap!!!! You are so very clever! I’ll bet you’re giggling like you just f*rted in church!
idk if this piece was linked to previously, but it’s from Wed.
http://politics.blog.ajc.com/2016/09/21/why-some-local-officers-are-divided-over-nathan-deals-cash-for-cops-plan/
it contrasts state v. local control in the contexts of law enforcement salaries and the Opp. School Dist. proposal. It quotes a tweet from Chris Riley: “So locals want the state to be hands off with Education but want the state to be hands on with law enforcement?” What I found most disturbing abt the article was actually that tweet, which over-simplifies the issues involved, and confounds the groups of stakeholders involved. It also has the pleasant side effect of dismissing the valid claims of local law enforcement for a salary increase. At the very least, the Gov should have a better spokesperson.
“You don’t like Merrick Garland? Vote against him. Vote against him. But don’t be blocking him. For the longest time in the history of America, a supreme court justice has been stopped, stopped from even having a hearing. It’s never ever happened before, never in the history of this country.”— Harry Reid, Thu 22 Sept, Day 221 since Justice Scalia died and McConnell decided no nominee would get any Senate attention: No meetings, no hearings, no votes, and Day 190 Garland was nominated by President Obama to fill that vacancy.
Governing the GOP is proud of: Make America Great Again.
…..ah the hopocrisy. In 2005 Harry Reid said “Nowhere in [the Constitution] does it say the Senate has a duty to give presidential nominees a vote.“
Cry baby.
Make America Manly Again!
A new poster with common sense! Welcome, Gresham! I can sure use the help!
Piff…
Repubs are betting that Trump would pick someone more to their liking that Garland. I wonder what the bookies have to say about that.
The nominee was Alito. The Judiciary Committee vote was party line, but Alito received 3 Dems votes on the floor.
Below from: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/hatch-last-week-obama-wont-pick-moderate-garland
“The President told me several times he’s going to name a moderate, but I don’t believe him. [Obama] could easily name Merrick Garland, who is a fine man. He probably won’t do that because this appointment is about the election. So I’m pretty sure he’ll name someone the [liberal Democratic base] wants.” – Orrin Hatch
Hatch praised for Garland before, telling Reuters in 2010 that he would personally help the “consensus nominee” win Senate confirmation if Obama nominated him to replace outgoing Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens and there “no question” he would earn bipartisan Senate support.
Hatch actively encouraged Garland’s confirmation to the Court of Appeals in 1997. “I know him personally. I know of his integrity. I know of his legal ability. I know of his honesty. I know of his acumen. And he belongs on the court. And I believe he is not only a fine nominee, but as good as Republicans can expect from this administration. In fact, I would place him at the top of the list.”
Hatch behaves like a party hack, and the GOP establishment is at a loss as to why their base doesn’t trust ’em anymore.
So HRC has secured a spot for Trump antagonist Mark Cuban on the front row for Monday’s debate. Can’t wait to see him jump out of his chair to complain about an answer then get thrown out of the building like happened often when he first bought the Mavs – http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/22/politics/mark-cuban-donald-trump-hillary-clinton/.
This just in, Trump in response has invited Gennifer Flowers, Juanita Broderick, Kathleen Wiley, Paula Jones and Monica Lewinsky to join Cuban on the front row. JK but one can dream.
Regarding Broderick, is there a statute of limitations on accusations of rape? If not, The Slickster had better stay away from the debate!
Dreams can come true….
http://www.thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/297620-gennifer-flowers-accepts-trumps-invitation-to-attend
Glad to see Trump takes our political institutions seriously and isn’t turning this debate into a reality show. Oh wait…
So, Hillary can bring Cuban to tweak Trump but Trump can’t bring Flowers to tweak, or in President Clinton’s case, twerk back?
Someone jerked Trump’s chain. Flowers will not attend.
Anyone defending this mess doesn’t understand how the world works. Note: In this story are governments and government entities responding to federal government rules. Not greedy companies. governments.

Its hurting the very people that it is supposed to be helping. The University employees affected by this are extremely upset. There is no way you read that story and came to that conclusion.
Hilly to raise the estate tax…Class warfare works every time its tried.

Realities of our times…Please, please put your kids in Spanish classes from the time they’re three or so….I teasingly tell my Colombian wife that she can speak to more folks in America than I can. It’s true.

whats that response i keep hearing when other people complain about certain situations?
oh yeah. If you dont like the way it is, then move!
Snowflake analogies are for north of the Ohio Valley… I believe you’re looking for ‘special sand dollars’.
I just got a Cruz email saying he was going to vote for Trump. I hate this world.
Cruz called Trump a “pathological liar,” “utterly amoral,” “a narcissist at a level I don’t think this country’s ever seen”, and “a serial philanderer.”
http://www.wmal.com/2016/05/03/cruz-trump-is-a-pathological-liar/
Don’t hate the world, “Be the change that you wish to see in the world.”
I gotta say though, that I sometimes fail in that regard.
Look, the piles of manure are merging.
