There's a reason why they keep saying that recently, they don't want democracy. They want to backflip themselves into selecting how leaders are chosen and who gets to choose.
Except geese have no honour (don't forget the u).
The problem is that Dems have had control of all 3 (presidency, house of reps, and Senate) for only 4 years of the last 24 years. When you don't have all 3 you are forced to reach across the aisle.
*If you include Bill Clinton then it's 6 years of the last 32 years. If you include Bush senior and Reagan, then it's 6 years of the last 44 fucking years.
You had the first 2 years of Obama. Obama's thanks for the ACA was voters not showing up and losing the house of representatives for year 3 and 4. And again for year 5 and 6. And then both the house and Senate in years 7 and 8. So no you didn't have 8 years with Obama, you had 2 years with Obama because voters did not show up. Congress is what passes laws and has power. They even shut down the freaking government under Obama.
Is this the conversation where I said dems have had control for 4 years of the last 24 years? Yeah it is. Dude they are forced to reach across the aisle. Because they have lost control for 20 years of the last 24 years. That's how Congress works, if you don't have all 3 then you are forced to reach across the aisle and compromise. I'll say it again, forced to. Because left voters never show up.
No matter how much you gripe, that's how it works. So if you want them to do left things, then give them all 3 (presidency, house of reps, and Senate) consistently and overwhelmingly. It's that simple.
(Want to go back further and include Bill Clinton? Then Dems have had control for 6 years of the last 32. Want to include Bush senior and Reagan? Then it's 6 years of the last 44 fucking years. Read that again: Dems have had control for 6 measly years of the last 44 fucking years. And you wonder why we have slow progress?)
I think that's bad faith to talk as if coal and ng are the same level of dirty (oh you just come out and say it's worse lol), so I'm out. Coal is ludicrously dirty. Just ridiculous. You have no idea. Even coal mining releases methane, which is intentionally vented.
Everytime the Dems lose, they go to the center to find votes. And they find them! That's how Bill Clinton won, he went to the center (some say right, whatever). Gore went a little left and then lost. So Obama learned to not run left and instead ran on broad "hope". His reward for passing the ACA was losing Congress for his last 6 years. Thanks voters. Clinton went a little left on climate change, supposedly the important issue for the left, and lost. So Biden learned to not run left, and he won!
Every time the Dems go left they lose. So they go to the center to find voters and they find them. And you wonder why they go to the center?
Previous discussions have informed me that at a certain point of wealth, you no longer consider yourself part of the "black class" and you instead consider yourself part of the "wealthy class".
They reach across the aisle because they basically never have control of Congress. Dems need all 3 (presidency, house of reps, and Senate) to pass anything. When they don't have all 3, they have to reach across the aisle to pass anything. So guess how long they've had all 3? They've had it for 4 years of the last 24 years.
And if they didn't reach across, guess what happens. The GOP shuts down the government like they did to Obama.
So what can you do move things left? Give Dems consistent and overwhelming victories in all 3 houses.
I threw pinecones at birds that were picking at the window for some reason. I think it short circuits their brain to see an object coming at them. They haven't been back since.
There's complicated (hard) work, and there's physically demanding (hard) work. Realtor is neither.
Chips act, drug control prices, non competes banned, green energy, going for Roe, student debt reform, weed, PACT act, etc, etc, Get outta here with that bothsidessame oh he tried the "left pretty bad" instead.
Ng has half the CO2 and pretty much eliminates the others like NOx, SOx, PM, etc. Yes leaking can be an issue but there's obvious incentive to not have leaks, you can place power plants close to the ng source, etc. Coal can never be clean.

Why is there no hair? It's completely surrounded by hair. The entire rest of the head (except parts of the actual face) is covered by hair. Other animals have hair.
FYI: apparently most Opera is in Italian, then French comes in distant second, German third.
>Around one in six voters say that a guilty verdict in former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial will make them less likely to vote for him, according to a new poll.
TLDR: There was a recent shakeup of the Russian top brass and an economist was put in a top job. He thinks the economist has told Putin that this can not be sustained given Russia's capability and Western promised support. Putin might actually be listening and why he wants to settle on current control.
Did they have to track down leaded gas? Did they just use unleaded? Did they suffer engine knock?
The Swedish island is strategically located in the Baltic Sea.
>After being demilitarized in 2005, Sweden re-introduced permanent troops to Gotland in 2016, following Russia’s annexation of Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula in 2014. Sweden also became NATO’s newest member in March — meaning it is covered by the alliance's Article 5 guarantee that all other members come to each other's defense if they are attacked.
Personally I wasn't a fan of them, so was glad they didn't continue on.
Instincts being we were both hunters and had to hide from predators. Hide and seek feeds both.
*What's with the down votes? Are people evolution deniers?
White Castle has its own take on fast food hamburgers. For starters, the patties are square, with five holes in each patty. And they’re small, too –- two-and-a-half inch sliders. Just big enough to fit into the palm of your hand. And since they’re steamed on a bed of onions, everything is infused wi...
Excellent listen throughout, but you can skip to 17:30 for competition with McDonalds.
Again, with no elevator.
I can't imagine no elevator and walking up with groceries.
Do they just speak faster? Do the Indian words/pronunciation flow better/faster than English does? And they are simply trying to match the cadence?
