  1. Not bad as Trump- worse than Trump
  2. See the emboldened and tell me how Detroit fits your "evidence around the country". While you are at it, take a look at San Bernardino, Stockton, and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. And on a larger scale, add in Greece and Venezueala
  3. Then you will undoubtedly agree that the clown who wore an Obama mask ( since it was not actually Obama) and got fired shouldnt have? [Hidden Content]
  4. O reilly must leave the network but she leaves only a show. As for conscience, she has none when it comes to "the cause". "The end justifies the means"
  5. Kind of like murderers finding Jesus in prison? Ditto on her not being funny. I wonder if she is a Liberal? :):)
  6. stevenash

    Yes!!

    But there may be a response with"grab em" somehow worked into it.
  7. Big girl, tobie, pamfam- is this a legitimate grievance?
  8. I can't imagine!! Nappy, what do you and NewTobie think of this news? Big Girl, are you impressed with this news or do you find it disappointing?
  9. Dove, regarding the topic of this thread. Trump was simply fighting his way over a screen.
  10. Good news for consumers. Rising wages pushed incomes higher to start the second quarter, while spending increased the most for any month so far this year. Paired with strong gains in January and February, incomes are showing the strongest start to a year since 2014. Adjusting for rising prices in April, "real" (inflation-adjusted) consumer spending was up a healthy 0.2%. And the best news from today's report is that private sector wages and salaries accounted for almost all of the increase in income, while government redistribution was unchanged after rising for four consecutive months. If President Trump wants faster growth, he needs to slow the growth of (or outright reduce!) government benefits. Before the Panic of 2008, government transfers – Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, disability, welfare, food stamps, and unemployment insurance – were roughly 14% of income. In early 2010, they peaked at 18.5%. Now they're around 17%, but not falling any further. Redistribution hurts growth because it shifts resources away from productive ventures and, among those getting the transfers, weakens work incentives. Along with the rising incomes in April, spending ticked up as well. Spending on goods rose 0.7%, and spending on services increased 0.3%. As always, we like to take a step back and look at the trend. While spending growth has outpaced income over the past year, incomes are up at a 4.2% annual rate in the past three months compared to a 3.1% pace for spending. Meanwhile, the financial obligations ratio - which compares debt and other recurring payments to income – is near the lowest levels seen in thirty years.
  11. Do you think the LSU Tiger symbol is racist?
  12. From the party of mutual respect and tolerance.
  13. Now that there have been three responses, can you please let me know what a "hommy" is. I am familiar with homey but not "hommy".
  14. Speaking of Presidential commentaries, can you tell me why, during the last administration we heard so much about Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin and virtually nothing about Kate Steinle?
  15. Invest in Navy shipyards? Are you kidding me? Do you have any idea how many more refugees could have been brought into this country for this amount of money? Think of how many confederate statues could have been removed. Just imagine how much the SNAP program could have been expanded. Most of you are just a bunch of greedy, unenlightened, bigoted jingoists with no regard/concern for the needy.
  16. I am trying to remain "above the fray". One could possibly say I am implementing the strategy of my heroine, Michelle Obama, by these famous words and subsequent execution: " when they go low, we go high". ( I must admit my extreme disappointment that my name was EVER mentioned in the same sentence as either Bruce or Caitlyn.)
  17. What are you saying? Do you believe that stuff about him and Monica? He said he did not have sex with that woman. Don't you accept that like every other comment made from the left?
  18. Dont know. Will try to find out. I am sure the DNC could provide one but you may want another:)
  19. Wait a minute. Arent you a member of the crowd that has great disdain for anyone or any group that makes such broad generalizations?
