Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread
reddogblitz replied to snafu's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I heard Liz once say we could pay for free college, free child care, and free health care with the money we would get by repealing the Trump Tax cuts. I'd like to see how that pencils out. -

Trump lies, post them here

I don't think it was a lie but I think 80% of TBDers do. "Doug Flutie is a good QB." -

Aaron Schatz Football Outsiders-- Still Doubts Josh
reddogblitz replied to JESSEFEFFER's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have my doubts about Allen too. He did some good and some bad last year. You know, like a rookie. some guys start great and fizzle like RG3. Others suck as rookies only to turn out HOF like Peyton. I'll know he's good and can lead a team to the top 1/3rd of the league when he does. Until then TBD. and whatever these yahoos say to get clicks means NOTHING until he proves it on the field which as of yet he has not. The team WAS top 1/3rd the year before he arrived ... -

In non Trumpian times that may be true. But now Mayor Pete served in Afghanistan while Major Bone Spurs got 5 deferments to Viet Nam. Anything Trump did was bad. This comment allows Mayor Pete to one up Trump without saying Trump is a draft dodger. That's why I think it's smart. He did the same with the Alfred E Neuman thing. He didn't have to come right out and say Trump is and old out of touch codger living in the 20th century. Much better way to go after Trump than to out name call him. Anyone care to guess how many deferments Uncle Joe got? -

This is a smart move by Mayor Pete. Being an Afghanistan veteran he has 9000x the credibility as Colonel Bone Spurs on anything in-a-war related. -

There aren't any. As soon as one election is over and the winners sworn in, the race to stay in office or throw the bum out office begins. -

2 thing. 1. Birth control is covered in the Affordable Care Act. He doesn't know that? According to HealthCare.Gov Food and Drug Administration, approved contraceptive methods prescribed by a woman’s doctor are covered. This includes: Barrier methods used during intercourse like diaphragms and sponges Hormonal methods, like birth control pills and vaginal rings Implanted devices, like intrauterine devices (IUDs) Emergency contraception, like Plan B® and ella® Sterilization procedures Patient education and counseling https://obamacarefacts.com/obamacare-birth-control/ 2. It's an election year and abortion is being heated up by both sides. Coincidence? -
The Media's Portrayal of Trump and His Presidency
reddogblitz replied to Nanker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I suspect they are finding that "run fast and break things" is not a good business model. But really, they are so inept at IT. Having a printer in your data center spitting passwords? A non-encrypted passwords file? Really? People try to get me join, but I won't because I don't like being the product of companies with lax data security practices. -

My corporate experience tells me that probably won't even do that much for you. All raises are based on a percentage of your salary. Even when you get promoted to a higher level they'll just bump you up like 4%. You may get a bonus now and then but nothing to significantly change your income. I always now tell young people they need to negotiate the best deal they can because all future raises will depend on that. -

One thing about this is sometimes mentioned but not often. I found out about it when I got a job offer and watched a few videos about salary negotiation on youtube. Seems women don't negotiate for salary near as often as men. If you start with less because you didn't negotiate a good deal, you'll be stuck with less for the whole time you are that company. Should be an easy fix. -

As a man I know I have no right to an opinion on this even though I have fathered and raised children. I keep hearing and have always heard about women who can't afford to have a child or are not ready in their life to have one. Why is this a problem? Most states if not all have safe haven laws. Drop a baby off at the fire station within 3 days. Heck in some states you can just leave them at the hospital. Ironically NY gives a mother 30 days to do this. A lot of states it's only 3 days. http://safehaven.tv/states/ I clicked around and even the most rednecky of redneck states have such laws. In the meantime, people are buying eggs for tens of thousands of dollars, adopting kids from foreign countries, and paying other women to carry their baby for them because they cannot while others are throwing theirs away like last weeks garbage. Sad.
