Take it from a rich business guy, we only give out raises when we have to. Don't count on that $4,000 Donald Trump & Paul Ryan promised from tax cuts.”

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/ ... 471188002/
....except that many millions of people have gotten significant tax cuts and raises. https://nypost.com/2018/01/27/sorry-ske ... g-wonders/

...one just needs to ask oneself, what if Trump suggested raising the taxes on those employees -- suddenly it would be "Trump soaking the working class with tax hikes" which would be claimed to be disproportionately on the poor and working class....

It's just all bullshit. If Trump cuts taxes, they're for the rich. If Trump raises taxes, it's for the rich. Whatever Democrats do, even if it's raising taxes, it supposedly helps the poor and is eminently fair.

Democrats quadrupled the cost of health insurance, and they're fucking heroes to the Clinton News Network and MSNBC and ABC/CBS/NBC.....not to mention BBC, The Guardian etc.

The thing that was interesting in the class was every time the professor said ‘Al Qaeda’ his shoulders went up, But you know, it is that you don’t say ‘America’ with an intensity, you don’t say ‘England’ with the intensity. You don’t say ‘the army’ with the intensity,” she continued. “... But you say these names [Al Qaeda] because you want that word to carry weight. You want it to be something.” - Ilhan Omar

What's bullshit? When did Trump raise taxes for you to perform this totally made up analysis?

Hypocritical bastards, as always.
REPUBLICANS MORE LIKELY TO CHEAT ON SPOUSES THAN DEMOCRATS, MARRIED DATING SITE SURVEY SUGGESTS

Republicans are apparently more prone to cheating on their spouses than Democrats are, according to survey conducted by a website that helps married people to have affairs.

The website Ashley Madison found that 60 percent of its members are Republican, while less than 40 percent were Democrats, in a survey it released last month.

That breakdown had the company “a little surprised,” Ashley Madison’s vice president of communications Paul Keable said.

“In general, the GOP is seen as the grand old party set in a more conservative viewpoint of life, that clearly over the past 20, 30 years was far more tied to evangelical groups, in small town U.S.A., so all those lean a little bit more toward the traditional family values,” Keable told Newsweek. “On the flip side, Democrats are construed as liberal elites that live more freely.”

A “long line” of Democratic leaders have been scrutinized for extramarital affairs, including former presidents Bill Clinton, John F. Kennedy and Franklin D. Roosevelt, the survey report pointed out.

Actually, within our Liberal Party, there is quite a range of political opinion, ranging from neoliberal to troglodyte right...

Well, not quite. It would if Abbott achieves his dream of regaining control...

But the threat of that does force the party somewhat to the right, in comparison to what its position would be if Tony was run over by a bus...
