I'm guessing good old Annie doesn't own a black kettle or a pot.

If your post was an attempt at sarcasm, I suggest learning what sarcasm is.
-
The district has long been home to diverse immigrants. The pushback was because the immigrants were being pushed out by new development. But why would you want to learn about an issue before posting about it?
-
Yeah, much easier to make fun of the post length than to argue the merits. That's why you guys are the smart ones up there.

The Media's Portrayal of Trump and His Presidency
GG replied to Nanker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Kind of proves that when actors don't work off scripts of smart people, they're really dumb. -
If you promise to invest $5 billion and add 25k jobs at average salary of $150k someone will reach out to you. Meanwhile there was no federal tax incentive in their Queens plan. So if you also send a few million on tax lawyers, they'll find the same deductions that Amazon gets.
-
No, he's right. And Amazon doesn't enjoy any special tax privileges and deductions.

Do you even understand what's discussed in the article, that mixes income statement, balance sheet and cash flow items as if they're interchangeable? And you're taking Bernie's word as gospel? Bernie is now an expert on US tax law and deciphering financial statements? Square this from the filing itself - Cash taxes paid, net of refunds, were $412 million , $957 million , and $1.2 billion for 2016 , 2017 , and 2018 . Never mind the hundreds of millions in payroll taxes paid

I think Soros makes up for quantity
-
Actually, I don't. You said that you pay more taxes than Amazon and WalMart
-
Your company must really be successful if you paid more than Amazon's $1.2 billion tax bill in fiscal 2018

Occasi-Cortez Channeling the Rent's too damn high guy

My guess is the temporary worker visa that's popular with East Europeans (the ones who work in Mar Lago & other Fla hotels during peak seasons) -
OTOH, it takes special talent to piss off Trump AND Cuomo within one week.

I think you missed the point. It has nothing to do with Lou's style of play (btw, he's not the coach). I'm wondering how you can square your preaching for patience for a perpetually losing franchise remaining a bottom dweller, while praising another moribound franchise's rise. Based on your logic, Isles should have retained Doug Weight because he had a decent end as the interim coach in 2016

... especially in the area of USA where train travel is most widely used, and her district is home to the largest rail yards in NYC -
Except the most recent exchange had nothing to do with Israel, but with her using longstanding antisemitic tropes. So, other than the facts, you were in the right hemisphere. Funny how the same people who pounced ©️ on Soros's critics based on a wild Jewish tangent are excusing away actual displays of consistent antisemitism
-
Why should I start another thread, when I'm already posting in a thread dedicated to progressive antisemitism? BTW, care to link what Friedman posted pre-Iraq war? I'm guessing the tone was different. Funny how progressives' attitudes change when they're no longer part of the cool club. Say what you want about Alan Dershowitz, but he didn't back down from his views when the polite society stopped inviting him to parties and he had the balls to call them out on it. Not so for Mr Friedman.

Who was the ultimate drug buyer?

I think you missed the point of the vote. McConnell wants the vote so that he can expose the progs and tie them to stupid economy killing mandates. -
The Media's Portrayal of Trump and His Presidency
GG replied to Nanker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
There are too many threads where a can place this idiotic train of thought. Since this one deals with media, it's probably the most apt. It boggles my mind that adults who have learned enough in school to properly put words and sentences together are absolutely clueless about what their sentences really mean. Abandoning high-speed rail would be a mistake for California, the country and the planet -

Ideological cannibalism at its finest.
