Lets explore some history yes?
1890s Gilded Age conservatives.. 1900s Progressives.. 1910s Wilsonian conservatives.. 1930s New Deal progressives.. 1950s Eisenhower conservatives.. 1960s Great Society liberals 1970s Nixon Revolution conservatives.. 1976-1980 Carter liberals.. 1980s Reaganomics conservatives.. 1990s Pimpin Clinton liberals.. 2000s "compassionate" conservatives.. 2010s Barry O liberals.. 2016-? NOTICE A PATTERN??? believe whatever you like or want or don't want, i honestly could care less who the president is, same shit different toilet.. but i think American history speaks for itself and our next president will be a rich, elitist, white man from the GOP.

All your criticisms are true. Forgot to mention he has strong ties to ALEC. But: --Expanded Medicare. --Raised taxes on fracking industry to pay for oversight, etc (rather than pass the costs onto tax-payers) --His last budget proposal was mostly moderate, and at points even liberal. Redistributing education funds to underperforming schools? That took balls. suchfriends is right. We're due for a Republican president. All I'm saying is: 1.) Kasich is moderate enough to win it all (although perhaps too moderate to win the GOP nomination!) 2.) As a Republican president, I feel he'd be open to ideas outside the far-right box. I don't think his first act as President will be dismantling Obamacare, or kicking gays out of the military, or privatizing social security. Quote:
I don't like Hilary. At all. But what I like even less is the "They're all the same" mentality. Obama isn't the progressive we wanted him to be, but to suggest the past six and a half years would have been the same if McCain had won is absurd. And to suggest a Hillary presidency and, say, a Jeb Bush presidency would look the same is equally absurd. Yes, President Hillary will no doubt do many pro-corporate, hawkish, anti-progressive things, but c'mon. Just because she isn't as leftist as she pretends to be doesn't mean she's a right-winger, y'know? You're concentrating on the overlap, and there's quite a bit. But the differences are significant enough that "They're all the same" doesn't ring true. |

Lets see.. expanded military actions while continuing all the other operations.. implementing Newt Gingrich's version of Healthcare reform NOT the Clinton version totally caving to the insurance industry.. completely and utterly failed the black community time and time again even as a token black president.. sided with crooked cops every single time not pushing justice dept like even Bush I did here in LA in 92.. failed miserably at immigration reform.. bailed out all the banks and corporations meanwhile average American income is down..
Tell me again how "different" Barry O has been from the same bullshit that preceded him? A sad reality is that some significant social reforms in immigration and civil rights actually occurred under "conservative" administrations.. shit even Bush I was more about affirmative action than Obama!

I really like my new work place. Thanks to the Art in State Buildings law (yes, a state law that mandates state building budget money for art!), there's awesome original artwork everywhere I turn--paintings, photographs, prints, sculpture, stuff I don't know what it is. It's wonderful. There also are a couple of great dining room/cafe patio-atriums on the top floors that offer incredible views of the city.
I feel a little bit like when I moved from Bumfuck, South Carolina, to Asheville--like I'd gone to heaven. I'm living the dream. ![]() ![]()

blue cross-blue shield. the mental health coverage sucks. i called them today to see why they can't cover any more and like, if it were an emergency, i'd be a bit better off. so i've gotta find another doc.
my sorta emergency fund from my last paycheck is basically all rent and utilities and paying back my folks for paying a bill for me. i got call from a collector yesterday for the emergency room visit i had fucking last july, i owe like $800. hahahaha. everything sucks. but, i made a killer avocado pasta sauce last night with garlic/feta/olive oil/basil. whatever.

Whey, enjoy your victories where you can get them. Dinner sounds great.
Meantime, find maybe a social worker to help you find resources? Those people know all about where to find things cheaper and maybe can connect you with a clinic/etc. Dont be afraid to ask for help from the right people. Everyone goes through tough times at some point. |

Sorry to hear about the insurance woes, everyone. My advice--hook up for employment with state or federal gov't. My insurance costs are almost literally zero. My experience, personally, tells me that Blue Cross rocks, but I know that's not the same for everyone. It also depends greatly on what your employer can provide, of course. As I'm with a giant state employer now, the benefits are extremely generous. I pay zilch for generic scripts, nada. Because my wife is also employed with same employer, our premiums are zilch, nada, nothing--we have the double spouse credit.

Wow. Talk about your embarrassing moments. Has anyone walked into the other gender's restroom by mistake? I just walked into the women's restroom at work. I was in a hurry and mistook the sign on the door for one of those men/women signs, meaning it's available to either gender and you just lock the door after yourself. I walked in, noticed there were not any urinals, and that should have tipped me off, but like I say, I was in a hurry, and I probably was not all that awake. I thought, hmm, strange, and entered a stall. Just then it started to dawn on me, especially when the person in the next stall flushed, then walked from her stall with a definite clacking of women's high heels. I froze. I hadn't unzipped or anything. I just stood there with my hand frozen on the inside of the door. The woman on the other side of the door must have known, because she paused a lonnngg time before washing her hands. Then another long pause before the air dryer came on. Then another long pause. Meanwhile, I noticed there was a container for used tampons. Then I noticed that she was sort of peering from the sink area to the crack in my door. I should have just walked out and said, "God, I'm so embarrassed, I'm sorry," but I didn't I just stood there frozen. Finally she left and I rushed out of there and down the hallway. With any luck, there's not an APB out on me.

Very odd. It was disorienting but not enough to make me realize my mistake.
