Just pass around the pen and everyone gets to write in what they want that benefits them.



C'mon, move to Mount Pleasant, SC, in February. We can be neighbors.[/quote]

Lot's of great restaurants there be prepared for traffic, bad driving and to put on twenty pounds from fried food alone. Head to Isle of Palms go to Acme Cantina and get the Gouda Grit Fries. Ask them to add some shrimp. Go to Simmons Seafood for key lime pie. Don't ever let anyone see you buy shrimp at a grocery store pick it up at the dock on Shem Creek. Swig and Swine up route 41 for your que. Riverdogs games are the bomb great food and beer. Go opening night to hang with Bill Murray

Nice, thanks for the updates. Luckily I will be working remotely, so I will only have to deal with any traffic for things I choose to go do.

[quote=sdskinsfan2001;1304701]This blows my mind lol. I want to be invited to the next Mooby family reunion.[/quote]

My mom's side of the family is mostly blue - except for my mom (pro-Trump/pro-crazy) and one Q-anon aunt.

I'm glad they never met my dad's side of the family lol.

Both your parents are pro-trump? Man, who says the apple can't fall far from the tree, then roll down hill 5 miles.

When you hear people spew hate for West Virginia remember:

West Virginia has a higher literacy rate than New York or California (86% vs 78% vs 77%).

Manchin is the problem not the people there.

Really? I have never heard anyone say I hate those illiterate West Virginians. You are trying to connect dots between democrats, Manchin, and illiterates so that everyone says wait a minute Manchin may have a point because his state reads better than California which is blue???

Exactly but Chico is trying desperately to comb the internet to prove that Manchins state is better somehow than two blue states and therefore democrats are wrong. Lololololo

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
 

Im just ducking out of here. Chico is angry about last night and taking it out on California for their reading skills to prove that build back better is no good[emoji1750]

The floor is yours Chico. Good luck with your thesis.

It refers to a long stigma, but liberals, political talking heads, and media have gone to it this week bc of Manchin correct position on the socialist, 5 trillion bullshit bill

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
 

Why do only a 5 trillion bill? If 5 trillion is good, then 10 trillion would be really good.

The democratic party (the party as a whole, not necessarily individual voters) pretending it cares about coal workers is also lol.

If that health coverage thing needs to be extended, and that's really important to democrats, they can simply draft a bill that is strictly for that.

Instead we draft these huge fucking bills with everything and the kitchen sink in it, mostly stuffed with pork. Then pull out little parts like this that might actually be helpful, and say, look see if you don't vote for this bill, you don't care about X group.

The problem isn't Manchin, the problem is the bill itself. And it's just the bill process in general, that is the deep problem.

No way people that vote on these bills even know what's in all them. Thousands of pages, how could you.

Nothing triggers the right quite like that S word. Despite the fact we have elements of it all around us.
