Precisely fresh.. the President is trying to avoid a Shutdown like the goPhucks caused in 2013..

those who don't depend on getting checks like SS from the Gov and working for the Government.. don't give a shite about it. Millions do care.. I know I do.. and I know you do too. We all went through this last year and it was devastating and traumatic..

GOP shutdown the government in 2013. Democrats still didn't turn out in 2014, yet want to blame President Obama for the hand they dealt him.

As someone on the link says.. (paraphrasing).. truly sickening how the gops got richly rewarded for their blatant treason by the voters and the non voters.

Thank you for you post, freshwest~

Derrick Rose discusses decision to wear 'I Can't Breathe' shirt

snip//

"I'm a parent now," Rose said. "I had a kid two years ago. It probably would have been different . I probably wouldn't have worn the shirt. But now that I'm a dad, it's just changed my outlook on life, period.

"I don't want my son growing up being scared of the police or having the thought that something like that could happen. I have a cousin, that easily could have been him (that was killed), or that easily could have been one of our relatives. It's sad that people lost their lives over that."

MOre..

I like what the President has Accomplished and I wish him all the Luck in the world.. you all

can continue dissecting every word.. hang on to that... we'll see who's won in 2016.

"Folks are talking about how I supposedly said how wonderful Ronald Reagan was. (Laughter) Now let me tell you what I said just in case you're getting it third-hand. (More laughter) What I said was that Ronald Reagan, back in 1980, was able to tap into the discontent of the American people and he was able to get Democrats to vote Republican. They were called Reagan Democrats. Remember that? And what I say it is that we as Democrats right now should tap into the discontent of Republicans. (Applause) I want some Obama Republicans. (More applause) I say Obamacons. (Laughter) So I didn't say I liked Ronald Reagan's policies. What I said was that it is the kind of working majority that we need to form in order to move a progressive agenda forward. (Applause)"

So Florida doesn't count? and what's this?.. "FDR’s New Deal coalition of southern Democrats and

northern blue-collar and ethnic voters excluded southern blacks."

Oh yeah, "A LOAD of Obama Hate".. even on the thread about his having to go

to the hospital for a sore throat he's evidently had for 2 weeks.
