NUKE THE FILIBUSTER
Nuke the fillibuster. Fuck Moscow Mitchy. He’s done having been re-elected and serving his final Putin term, granted, six years is a long time. And, and, and remember that the record holder for filibustering was the father of a daughter he never publicly acknowledged during his life. Yea, good enough to fuck but not good…

Meth Head State Rules America?
Is Joey WV Really more concerned about meth heads and their ability to exercise their second amendment than whether you can grocery shop safely? Anyone remember 2nd grade? Imagine that fucking horror. I’m patiently waiting to be a victim, either personally or burying a parent, child, grand child or relative or friend.…

Irresistible (the movie)
Last night, my wife and I watched Jon Stewart's film, "Irresistible". The movie is a comedy/farce, of course, but it makes some strong points about the nature of politics in America. I'm curious as to what those of you who have seen it thought of it and how you feel about the way it presents politics in America. I loved it…

$15 minimum wage
Who didnt see this coming? This is what happens when government intervenes in the market. I guess we can just pay them all a living wage until we run out of everyone's money. "As minimum wage levels approach or surpass $15 nationwide, restaurant customers expecting to be greeted by a smiling face will instead be welcomed…

The Texas Deep Freeze
Here's a thread that's a bit over-due. The Texas freeze has been talked about elsewhere but it is a major even and the discussion really does not relate to the PG&E thread. So OK, most of us here are at least left-leaning if not outright die-hard liberals, but what has and is happening in Texas is a human issue and,…

Ongoing PG&E power outages
Considering California has a bigger economy than several countries and considering this article only reflects the power outage of two weeks ago, not the one early again this week or the one expected this weekend or the fact that they are saying this is the new norm for the next ten years... added all up, I can't see how…
