I'll say it again, people have lost the Art of being on the Down Low.

"Being on the Down Low" may not mean what you think it does.

A modern democracy features Governors known as "Coonman" who is a Baby killin' sunuvabitch



Oh, and Dems, you already made it clear HS is fair play, this is college and Med School, so don't even bother with the "only a boy" BS.

Democrat party is the refuge of all the worst racists in America.
Ironic, but so true.

Might be prudent to wait until the promised jobs actually show up before declaring mission accomplished again - the last time a Potus did this, it didn't work out so well now did it ?

Damn, going to have to do some more work on blocking by country. The bots are all from Vietnam lately.

What does a "Bot" message look like? I'm naive on this point.

Ah the Urban dictionary the Snopes of phrases.

Some fat cow and her cucked husband run that site too?


I've seen so much on Urban Dictionary those people don't have a fucking clue. I think words just come to people for the first time, and they run to Urban dictionary to define them.

Not for me. I live in an area that is half Black so I heard that "down low" phrase for years. I just used that Urban Dictionary as an easy reference.

Well California Liberals obcese over what Black guys do with their Dicks and to each other.

"I'll tell you something but keep it on the DL or down low, but word is the Manger Ryan is going to get fired and replaced."

"Hey can you get me some weed?" - "Yes but keep it on the Down Low, don't tell anyone I got you pot. I don't want people to know I smoke."

But yes it also works for the black pickle smugglers in California as well, and the White Liberal Dinks that obsess over them.

Northam is a Democrat, which is the party of identity politics. Any slight to upholding the identity politics agenda is taken serious. Northam presents a threat to that. So that is why a lot of Dems like your favorite Kamala Harris has called for him to resign. Also it Lt Gov Fairfax is probably more desired to be Governor than Northam, even before this latest episode, and the other one involving his abortion comments.

What, haven't you heard ? "It's a nothing burger."

I expect an in depth analysis regarding at least three thing on his list in 5, 4, 3....

One can only gain so much horsepower, kilowatts, and BTU's from renewable energy. BTU's per hour is critical to keeping a lot of the northern European countries warm during the winter. Solar is not going to help that much in the Nordic countries. Hence, there needs to be more improvement in renewable energy.

The only other way is to influence lifestyle choices and force people to change the way and where they live. Encourage massive movement to urban areas to enable less reliance on individual ownership of gas-burning automobiles.

The above is what probably on the mind of a lot of the global environmentalists.

The modern "conservative" movement (they are anything but) is simply stoking the pre-existing fears and prejudices that exist within American citizens, not to mention taking advantage of the lack of education and dismal attention span that most suffer from.

Fox News, Breitbart, Infowars, Trump and his enablers... all of that is only possible because of the complete and total failure of most Americans to pay even the slightest bit of attention to what is going on outside their daily lives, to educate themselves, and to not allow themselves to fall prey to charlatans.

Trump is a threat to national security to be sure. But so are most American citizens. And that is the real problem.

If you're living in a double wide by a creek on your 5 acre of land 20 miles from the nearest Starbucks. Why in the fuck would be an innovator?

Percentage on Food Stamps is Mississippi? Oh really now? Or are we splitting hairs over the per capita nonsense liberals like to play so they don't look as bad as they really are?

Nobody is shitting on the streets in those states, no City in those states have sidewalks littered with dope needles.

Common Core fucked Education up for everyone, so did the commie teachers in Education. I told Ya, we need to vet the Teachers to get the Pedophiles and Commies out.

I wonder what would happen if you only looked at Whites.

Look a happy sign in the most depressed place on Earth. A fly over red state.

You did hear the update to this story in your shallow Liberal world didn't you?

They changed their minds and are staying now.

And they will change again. For the Chinese the negotiations begin after the deal is signed. There is no fucking way they will manufacture low/no profit goods in Wisconsin. Only an idiot like Walker and his republican rubes would fall for that.

The lobbying vig just went up.

The maximum limit or cap on the state and local taxes (SALT) which includes income tax and property tax is $10,000.

" For example, the average SALT deduction taken in New York was more than $21,000 in a recent tax year. "

However, the standard deduction went up significantly, such as to $24,000 for married couples.

I can see this hurting mostly those households in Democrat states making more than $150,000 per year and owning a home worth more than $500,000.

"Thanks to the Trump-Radical Republican tax cut, millions of families in California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Virginia and other high-tax states will owe thousands to tens of thousands of dollars more in federal income tax for 2018 even if their income was unchanged from 2017."

Sounds like a tax increase on the upper class. The same puds that previously pawned their high state taxes onto those in low tax states.

HEYYOU says

"In addition, millions of residents of blue states are about to get hit with big federal income tax increases

Good! Voted for party which supports higher taxes, get higher taxes and do not whine.

Would seem to me the title of the thread is over the borderline a personal attack.

Is it really necessary to install someone's name as opposed to just indicating how screwed up CalPers is?

Moderator ? Moderator ?

Anyone from Management ?

Agreed. In fact big corporations - not only wealthy individuals - are leaving CA in droves. Charles Schwab, McKesson just to name a few big ones. CA is fucked an cucked, the leftoids destroyed it.

Yeah leave Marcus out of it.

All of the government promises are as good as the fed that prints them.

Good thing the Patron Saint of the GOP and the Governator had no hand in the demise.

It would definitely be better not to have Patnetters names in titles of posts IMHO.

We have a member named 'Screwed'?

Marcus has indicated he is a public school teacher in California, so I suspect he'd be impacted by matter of CALPERS solvency.

With Governor Gavin "glamour boy" Newsom stating California welcomes any illegal immigrant seeking sanctuary, how will that impact CALPERS ?

Will it take away from the California funding pie (i.e., more money for public schooling and social welfare for children of illegal immigrants, etc.) that would go to funding CALPERS ? Will California require more employee contributions to CALPERS ?

One thing for sure, the stock market based on Shiller PE ratio (and economic cycles) is likely near peak. CALPERS should just put all the money into Vanguard Life Strategy Income Fund (i.e., 30% stocks/70% investment grade bonds) and safely count on about 6% annual return.

They may be the last if they ever leave because the SV leftoid censorship culture worships their enablers and thus they can get away with anything, for that they gladly pay a little extra for their employees. The free internet died around the time the dot com bubble burst at the beginning of this millenium.

Schwarzenegger was better than his crony predecessor Davis who is a criminal but overall the terminator has been cucked over the years and is pretty much a neocon somewhere between the nutty left and the Trump Republicans. A regular mainstream GOP guy won't fix the CA mess, they need a Giuliani style intervention by now.
