Some people don't like the fact that the guy wasn't a huge liberal.

A Toney top ten day for Feb! (Toney is our oldest serving local weather guy)

Pulled a stump, got another dug but it will need the chainsaw. (I am tired of mowing around them) Pulled some weeds that are already growing, trimmed on the way over grown Chinese maple tree, Cleaned up trash off the road, and some other miscellaneous.   I have a ton of indoor work but it was just too nice not to be outside.

Trying to avoid looking at the river bank, the last high water left a huge mess that will be a bear to clean up. Trash, trees, logs, sticks, all manner of flotsam and jetsam. I would demand that Waco come help but he would probably just break a leg. LOL

This is the kind of person you want representing you. Dude boogied out of the Hospital for a vote.


"...Houston Congressman Al Green cast a critical vote Tuesday night against a  Republican effort to impeach Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas.

Green, recovering from surgery, appeared on the floor in a wheelchair wearing hospital scrubs..."

Sure seems so.

Would the American military fire on American citizens if ordered to? Even if it was just a protest?

A right wing junta would suit some people.

"..Danielle Foré

Stop promoting fascists and alt right extremists. Don’t link to their blogs or videos. Don’t let them speak at your conferences. Don’t have them on your podcast. Don’t amplify their voices.."

And she's calling other fascists. That's rich. I don't think she knows what a fascist is.

"..."And now, Republicans are saying that if they retake the White House they will change the Medicare rules so that people newly turning 65 will enroll by default into Medicare Advantage rather than real, traditional Medicare, further enhancing the profits of these massive, billion-dollar insurance giants while rapidly killing off real, traditional Medicare."..."

I like Medicare advantage. That government crap kicked my father in law out of the hospital while he couldn't even walkwhen the number of days expired. However, I think there should be a choice.

Depends on who's in office. Kent State happened. I worked with someone that was there at the time.

"..As Paul Waldman points out, in case we need reminding, how Republicans have been acting lately tells us all we need to know about their priorities:

Though they scream about immigration and an imaginary invasion, they don't really care about immigration except as a tool to attack Democrats.

Nor do they care about the economy, despite nods to pretend they do. .."
