KD in CA Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I thought WNY was going down the tubes because of decades of rising taxes and policies that have ensured the astronomical growth of government at the expense of anything that can actually generate wealth. Who knew it was really all because of some woman I had never heard of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Hmm. Could be b/c she's not a supercilious, smarmy, elitist !@#$. I mean, that could play into it. Just a thought. Also, that over the next year-plus, any pol that Obama touches outside of traditional blue states is going to turn to **** in Nov. 2012 as more people come to see the worsening effect his policies have had on hiring, the price of gas, the national debt, etc. B/c there's that too.

And they won't get into any trouble or lawsuits. Head Beastie Paul Fallon is a lawyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 You'd think that if you could beat her on issues, you wouldn't have to resort to mockery. Of course they could. Just look at the rich history of progress that WNY Dem base can point to in the last two generations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Of course they could. Just look at the rich history of progress that WNY Dem base can point to in the last two generations. Last I heard, 70% of the city of Buffalo was on welfare (the other 30% are presumably employed by the city). Isn't that what progressives consider progress? The government taking care of everybody?

It's a suburban district...and a notoriously idiotic run-gubermint-like-a-bidness one. Past icons from the district include Chris "Chix with Dix" Lee and Tom "Enron" Reynolds so Corwin should fit in very well because like them, she came by her wealth the old fashion way...she inherited it.

Chef Jim Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Look on the bright side, at least Buffalo isn't as bad as Detroit Yes we can! I don't know, Detroit was the only major US city to see home prices rise in March. But then again when you can buy a 5 br 4.5 bath home for $12,000 kind of hard for them not to go up. But holy crap! A 47% illiteracy rate is incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Miner Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 But holy crap! A 47% illiteracy rate is incredible. Is that surprising? Look at all the Union contracts and deals that were signed. No one that can actually read would have ever done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 But holy crap! A 47% illiteracy rate is incredible. Countries with lower literacy rates: Ivory Coast Central African Republic Mozambique Gambia Senegal Benin Sierra Leone Ethiopia Chad Guinea Burkina Faso Niger Mali And...a selected list of countries with higher literacy rates: Bangladesh (53.5%) Haiti (62.1% - seriously? Freakin' Haiti?) Yemen (58.9%) Papua New Guinea (57.8%. Yes, headhunting cannibals have a better literacy rate than Detroit.) Solomon Islands (76.6%) That's just ridiculous.

Bishop Hedd Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) If this doesn't prove that the tea-bagger fad is nothing more than a tightly knit conservative organization funded by the Koch heads and the RNC, and hardly the grassroots "movement" its die-hard supporters say it is then nothing will. http://www.buffalonews.com/city/politics/article411441.ece So Rus Thompson and his merry band of bozos love the career political bimbo but make fun of the anti-establishment candidate. Can't say no one saw this coming. Edited May 7, 2011 by Bishop Hedd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
