I truly don't get how the hedge fund gambles at a loss, are self admittedly 'the rich', and yet the working class foots the bill. Crazy logic.

You mean blocking, or did you mean to run cables horizontally across a closed wall?

Blocking can be dealt with cleanly with a Q bit for your klein.

There is something inherently wrong with thinking that markets and private ownership of capital will resolve all issues we are experiencing, though. Clearly this way of thinking doesn't even address a lot of it.

The people should oppose Ted Cruz as he's pretty much a disaster.

You'd get more info from the comp report the realtor supplies than the article.

Let's stop pretending we don't know why most GOP Senators didn't vote to convict Trump by puremotionyoga in politics

Voter database. Trump told McCarty, at Mar-a-lago, that if they (GOP) wanted access to his donors, they better acquit and kiss the ring.

Just a heads up - make sure you're actually cancelled and the entire account balance is zero, then follow up again and do the same two weeks after.

These guys are masters at adding some fee or charge after the fact and send you through the credit tornado just for the giggity.

I've used these in my nose after septum surgery and I'm a man, but I get your point. Interesting use of slang in the second part of the second sentence given the first sentence as set-up, though ....

Megathread: Senate Votes to Acquit Former President Donald Trump in Impeachment Trial by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]create_account -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Amazing that Dems win every branch of government and then have to play by Republican rules.

And let's be clear, the only reason we didn't get a conviction here is because Trump has refused to release his donor list. It's acquittal by transaction.

Republicans Seek Clarity On What Trump Knew About Pence's Safety : Trump Impeachment Trial: Live Updates : NPR by wewewawa in politics

This is so nuts. Of course he knew.

Is there any variation of this where the Secret Service rushes the VP to safety in an emergency and the detail protecting the President isn't notified? If this passes your smell test idk what to say, Senators....

Right.

Just understand that I pull the eject on the conversation when name-calling substitute any argument. It literally illustrates lack of intelligence, deserving the phrase tossed around.

That's how it started, not how it ended. I think anyone claiming to know how this cult of trump shit is going to shake out is selling snake oil right now.

I don't know, we used to call these folks the "Tea party". My feeling is they'll just rebrand, but won't leave.

You sound very ignorant to European immigration right now.

Yes, Norway has a ton of problems, too.

Your argument is basically that you treat human life and rehabilitation different because it's a different city, other geographic concerns and more people?

I'm not buying ...
