No he's a trust fund brat who's a con man....just ask all the people who sued him for payment on a job, the various failures of his businesses, his historical bigotry in real estate and in general. Your hero. AOC is on target in the OP, and you can't stand it.
Hey, your state gave us the Shrub. How that work out for the country? Prove your statement, disprove the OP if you can. I dare you.
I've read the article and heard the clip several time. Your article merely infers racial epithets with no decisive or empirical link of race in any of Reagan speeches but it's YOU and your ilk that continue to link welfare to people of color. Even you can't give me ONE quote of Reagan naming race as the issue but the left is astonishingly notorious for their race baiting when time and time again, it's the progressive left that is the racist of this nation. Heck, if you are of color and are a republican, it's your party that calls them out as "boot lickers" and "uncle Tom's". What did your mamma tell you? For that one figure you're point at them, there are 3 more pointing back at you. And regarding Welfare fraud; in 2016, improper welfare payments, including fraud, are estimated to be 10.6% of all federal welfare payments made and totaled $77.8 billion in fiscal year 2016. 10% is a HUGE number and if you think 10% is acceptable.... Please refrain from doing any sort of accounting job. Source: http://federalsafetynet.com/welfare-fraud.html
Well, when the democrats stand for very little, that is wise and constructive, they are driven into calling the other party who does have ideas, racists. This doesn't require using their brains, being lazy, so they knee jerk. Much the same way the right side knees jerks with their playing the socialism card, that generally isn't even socialism. ha ha. I will join in with the right side folks when I see genuine socialism being promoted by the democrats, who like the GOP, are capitalists, oligarchs. Owned by big banking and big corporations. And those entities are not socialists folks. Which is why these socialist catcalls are just as absurd as what the democrats do. And I might say, a bit dishonest.
When liberals tell me that the public roads are socislism I know the left has a pretty loose defination of the term My point is that modern liberals are not socialist in the marxist sense but rather in the fascist economic model of limited private ownership but absolute government control and redistribution of the profit
Improper payments DOES NOT automatically equate intentional crime, don't cha know.....that's why they caveat "Including fraud", which is a crime. No note of when and how or it those improper payments were rectified. See, if you pay attention to details, you catch things like that. And your BS regarding dog whistle politics is just that....BS...insipidly stubborn denial of what is, as the article chronicles. Reagan use the term in one of his radio addresses...DOCUMENTED FACT. The whole point of dog whistle politics is to point the finger without actually using a direct label, as the article explained...which is why Willie Horton worked so well for Daddy Bush. Your insipidly stubborn denial is meaningless, as historical facts show. Your litany of supposition and conjecture to ignore what is just lame right wing pundit dodges...YOU COULDN'T adequately disprove the OP, or defend your claims. Your second to last line is a brilliant display of the mindset AOC points to. Thanks for revealing that. Carry on.
You blow a lot of smoke while not touching on the FACTS of what she points to. Typical right wing wonk rubbish.
Disprove what - AOC's a racist because she equated welfare queens to black women? Next thing ya know she'll turn up in a photo dressed like the Democratic governor of Virginia:
IF IT IS A DOCUMENTED FACT.... WHERE IS THE QUOTE OR THE RECORDED RADIO ADDRESS. You've not provided one yet other that opinion hit pieces of Reagan's motives that use BS tactics of dog whistle politics to generalize. If you accept inference, then you'd also allow for the quote from LBJ (witness by 2 governors) that his civil rights acts "I'll have them ******* voting democrat for the next 200 years."? And you claim I can't disprove the OP, yet you cannot place one shred of evidence of racial motivation, merely conjecture of the presidents "Queen of welfare" speech. Priceless.
Rush got to the bottom of the "boycotters" once.... a dozen, mostly retired college professors, with a fax machine and robo posts pretending to be 10s of thousands of people.
Seems you left this out how and why she beat incumbent Crowley. Do some honest research on that, if you dare.
Are you going to address the article or not? And what's wrong with someone other than you and I picking up the tab for a pipeline that would only benefit Canada and investors in the long rung?
By this logic, if a driver kills a pedestrian, the family should make the finance company of the auto loan liable? Liberal logic is very profound!
Since there wasn't anything of substance there I think not. It reflects a piss poor understanding of jurisprudence and economics. Banks finance purchases and construction. They do not operate the pipeline. The operator is the one who bears the cost of clean up as it is the operator's fault. If you reworked liability the way you want, banks would not invest money in projects because the potential uncontrollable liabilities would be obscene. Not just oil projects. ANY projects.
Your first sentence is essentially just smoke blowing....you can't fault the content, so you just BS. Typical right wing wonk dodge. And what a bunch of convoluted, apologetic BS regarding that pipeline! You and I pick up the tab in taxes for something that the banks are behind, a small minority of investors are behind, a foreign nation are behind...and they reap the benefits!

I am glad that Vegas at least relieved conservstives of any blame for the lousy education system in America
