You're the one who started this and yet can't answer any of the questions w/o dodging but will going to continue to blame the Dems. w/o really researching anything.

You really need to move (and get your family to move since you are staying for them) bc you obviously hate it here. Move to NH or somewhere very conservative - like that conservative utopia KY. Enjoy

"yet you seem not to have any problem with Trump's deficits (and in a booming economy)"

Nope, I have serious concerns with his debts and deficits. But if we're going to add to debt, I'd rather do it by giving money to 8-% of middle class folks, than doing it in a way that doesn't help them. I don't know a single person who benefitted form Obama's 750 billion stimulus.

"I'm so bound by ideology?"

Yes. If you can't admit that liberalism has doomed the state of CT, you aren't being rational. I disagree with the GOP on some big issues like gay marriage the death penalty, gun control, and capital gains/dividend taxes. Fair enough? Try painting me as Sean Hannity, you'll look very silly.

"yet can't answer any of the questions w/o dodging "

What question didn't I answer directly?

"You really need to move (and get your family to move since you are staying for them) bc you obviously hate it here"

Parents won't move, and our special needs son is in a great place. So I'm stuck. Mock that all you want...the math doesn't care that you desperately want the liberals to be right. You can't have more than there is. No one can, not even liberals and unions.

Their official announcement specifically mentioned her by name called her a "never Amazoner" because of the hostility she showed them. Said the board unanimously decided they don't want to work in the type of environment she's creating.

You're implying that Amazon's board knows more than Spence, about why Amazon makes its decisions? But Spence watches MSNBC!! He can't be wrong! It has to be a right wing plot...

saw that too.

25,000 jobs, at an average annual salary of 150k. it’s impossible to begin to quantify the benefits. but nope, she knows better. i’m sure the landlords and restaurant owners are thrilled, just thrilled.

Spence, you said Cortez was opposed to the 3B tax incentives. You're right, and she says that the city can now use that 3B to invest themselves.

Neither she, nor you, has a clue.

The city of NY wasn't going to give Amazon a check for 3B. Rather, Amazon would pay 3B less in taxes than they'd owe without the incentives. It's NOT like the city now has that 3B that would have otherwise gone to Amazon.

Clueless.

Funny, I never said such a thing. You're (again) just making things up to argue with yourself. It's odd.

yes you did. you said cortez opposed the deal because of the 3b tax subsidy. if that post is gone, it’s because you took it down.

getting 3b less than you thought you’d get ( but still getting something), is better than getting zilch. not to you or the mensa candidate Cortez.

She is a huge, huge gift to the GOP. Leave her right where she is, and giver her a bullhorn.

Is that true? I thought he just had a congressional email account, which liberals say is common, and conservatives are saying is treasonous. Depends on who you listen to.

PaulS 02-18-2019 12:46 PM

Breitbart was all over it also.

PaulS 02-18-2019 02:24 PM

So Brietbart and Fox jumped the gun on this. I thought Jim would have been all over this.

I criticize Fox regularly, for their partisanship and hypocrisy. Yes, you really have me on the ropes.

PaulS 02-18-2019 03:18 PM

It shows your pettiness because you start another threat today about the far left media I believe is the word you used and Fox News and Breitbart were all over this and got it totally wrong. Is it because we rightfully expect less out of these two? Probably so since they've been caught lying so many times before. The reason people on the left here didn't start a another threat about it is cuz we are not as petty as the people on the right

Saying that she's a genius is like saying the guy that ran that "Heaven's Gate" cult was a true visionary with a great plan!

"AOC: Did the president ever provide inflated assets to an insurance company?

Cohen: Yes.

AOC: Who else knows that the president did this?

Cohen: Allen Weisselberg (chief financial officer of the Trump Organization), Ron Lieberman (its executive vice president), and Matthew Calamari (its chief operating officer).

AOC: ... Do you think we need to review his financial statements and his tax returns in order to compare them?

Cohen: Yes. And you'd find it at the Trump Org.

AOC: ... The president may have improperly deflated the value of his assets to avoid paying taxes. … Would it help for the committee to obtain federal and state tax returns?

Cohen: I believe so."

Quicker than preparing an instant dessert, Ocasio-Cortez established the House Oversight and Reform Committee's right and the necessity to subpoena Trump's tax filings with the federal government, various states, and municipalities. It is very likely these will reveal documentary proof of tax fraud, insurance fraud, bank fraud, money laundering, and other financial crimes.

You don't get it, crimes that we already know about don't count.
