RNC 'census' Mailer Draws FireJan 26, 2010
DH received this in the mail. I filled it out for him and at the end where they asked for donations, put a zero in and wrote in big letters "Ha Ha!" Officials of both parties are sharply criticizing a fundraising mailing from Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele they say could be confused with official correspondence regarding this year’s census. The fundraising letter comes in the form of a “survey,” a frequently used device for partisan fundraising, but this ...

Republican Gun Raffle In Giffords' County Draws CriticismSep 05, 2011
First Posted: 9/1/11 06:14 PM ET Updated: 9/1/11 11:02 PM ET By Brad Poole TUCSON, Ariz (Reuters) - The Republican Party in Representative Gabrielle Giffords' home county is raising eyebrows by raffling off a Glock handgun -- the same brand handgun with which Giffords, a Democrat, was shot through the head in January. "When I first heard about this last week in an email, I said 'That's a joke, a sick joke. Nobody could be doing that,'" said Pima County Democratic Part ...

Bernie Sanders Draws Largest Crowds--didn'tAug 17, 2015
Over the weekend, when both men stumped across Iowa, rampant controversy raged across websites about their respective audiences. Trump insisted his crowds at the State Fair were the largest for any candidate. Sanders' supporters upheld their claim to the same distinction. More objective observers tended to side with Sanders, while also noting that Trump's throngs were at least partially drawn to his helicopter, in which he gave rides to children, among others. http://www.npr.org/s ...

Minor Question - Finger ArthritisDec 19, 2016
In the grand scheme of things this is a very paltry question, but it's new to me, so would like to hear about any tips or fixes. I'm in my 60s but have never had arthritis, no pains anywhere, even with doing MT for 30 years. I do have the Heberden's nodes on a couple fingers, but again, no pain associated with them.  But one night 2 weeks ago, I got off work and realized my left ring finger was swollen and stiff at the PIP joint. My wedding ring, which I've always been a ...

Sanders Only Draws 15,000 In Seattle. Seattle Media PlayingMar 26, 2016
...it's really a surprisingly small crowd considering that Seattle is one of our flagship communist cities, two clicks worse than San Francisco, even, with a dozen colleges and universities of well over 100,000 combined student bodies.  15,000 is meh! We Seattle locals affectionately call it "Moscow On the Sound".  For fun, on Saturdays we Moscovites line up at vacant grocery stores (of which we have been "liberally" supplied - pun intended) and practice waiting for  hours f ...

Scott Walker Fired By His OwnMay 22, 2015
In his two-year budget, Gov. Scott Walker called for a merger between WEDC and the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority, to be known as the Forward Wisconsin Development Authority. Under that plan, Walker called for removing all elected officials from the board, including himself. Earlier this month, Walker scrapped the merger plan, calling for all proposed agency mergers to be removed from the budget. He also asked lawmakers not to move forward with separate legislation propo ...

Walker, Now Fitzgerald Have Made Liars Out Of Those Who Mar 10, 2011
so vociferously defended this bill as a budget measure and denied union busting.  Fitz got a little cocky (as the cons have a tendency to do) and admitted Walkers and his intent was to defund unions in an effort to undermine the 2012 presidential election in a Fox interview with Megyn Kelly.  Guess they have figured out there is no way they could ever win an election based on the merits of their agendas.  Not only was this not about the budget, but it was not even about Wisco ...

Conservatives Scott Walker Vs. Ted Cruz On OutsourcingMar 23, 2015
I can't figure out why Ted Cruz is the hot ticket, right now, over Scott Walker, considering they're so similar on their views - what does he have Scott Walker doesn't other than "hot-topic" ethnicity? One of the most overlooked issues on this board is outsourcing, but it's the one that affects us as MTs the most. So it may surprise some to learn where these 2 conservatives stood on this issue - at opposite ends. Scott Walker wants to stop outsourcing: http:/ ...
