If Roe is so important to Democrats why have none of the House and Senate members brought it to a Vote? Anyone yet figured out the Agenda for June? Or even a good guess?

ginger Posted May 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 JB let me tell you..I just drove home from Florida, my faith in the United States renewed. Good people, working people, polite, courteous. NICE PEOPLE! I think I've become so accustomed to rude, declasse, passive aggressive weirdos in New York and on twitter, I thought the entire country had gone insane. Not So! Yay! I've no idea what bizarreness the 10% of the country will imagine in their own heads for June. There is never enough drama for them. AND THEN THERE IS THIS NUTCASE...GROW UP! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10776289/Retired-FBI-agent-wife-hurl-homophobic-insults-airline-staff-passengers.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there it is...per Dan Bongino related to Joe Biden stating from his prepared cue cards that overturning Roe V Wade will lead to segregating LBGT kids in public school. (roll eyes) What a way to float the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginger Posted May 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 Joe, you know what I remember about kindergarten? I remember the first day of school, my mom dropping me off after the obligatory photos. I remember my mom turning to walk out the door and I yell out MOM! with my arms outstretched. She came back in, pointed at the clock and said she'd be back when both hands were on the twelve. They want to teach these babies about sex when they are in first grade. Who do I beam with a two by four? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginger Posted May 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 I just stopped home for dinner and I'm trying to catch a bit of the Derby coverage before I go back to work. Last year I swore I was done with the wokefest the Kentucky Derby had become. In fact, I looked at zero trials this year. So far it looks like they've gone back to the business of horse racing and tradition. I'll watch the rest tomorrow. Have a good weekend everyone. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are still paying because you did not pay the full amount of the education costs when your children were in school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you mention it, I do recall my grandmother telling me that. I was asking her about her taxes because the schools in her area were so well appointed. If you Google Mt Pocono schools and click on images you'll see what I mean. She said they spare no expense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in spite of mid term elections, even if they favor Republicans, I'm still going to get killed on fuel costs. If something doesn't happen soon I'll have to file bankruptcy and take early social security until I figure out what my next move will be. My job and millions of others depends on fuel.

snowman60 Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 BULL SHIT!!!!!! Really Pete? How the frig do you figure i didn't pay? I have worked all my life, no matter when or what i rented. So now i get punished for buying a house raise my taxes? You all know we don't need a NYC, let alone another Como for a governor. retirement? Good luck. My taxes , both and school and property taxes went from 1200 back in 2000 for 1.16 acres to now close to 2500. Its time NYState to eliminate school taxes, like PA. I guess what I'm trying to say is we need to get rid of the old farts with their beliefs and bring in someone with new Ideas. It looks like the old farts can't get it done but they still collect multi benefits and maybe just under a 6 figure, or more, and health benefits, and god knows what else we have let them get away with. Time to make a decision folks, Research the incumbents before you vote. Vote for who you think would be the best candidate . PLEASE, don't vote party line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteMoss Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Why am paying for the Broome County Airport? I haven't flown out of there for 20 years. Why do I pay for fire protection? I have never called them Why do I pay for police? I call them once every 10 years. Why do I pay for Medicare when I am not on Medicare? Why do my retired relatives pay for Medicare when they paid into it for 40 years? Why do I pay for unemployment when I have never collected a cent from unemployment? Why do I pay for disability insurance when I have never collected? Why do I pay for Family Leave when I have never collected for Family leave? Would you like me to go on?
