Actually, Thomas Jefferson was a slave owning Democrat. Washington also owned slaves, but Washington at least made provisions to free his slaves after his and Martha's death, and made provisions for taking care of the freed elderly and to educate the freed child slaves.

Why did St. OBAMA! do nothing about these price rises? Perhaps rising prices might be related to his Obamacare at least partially???
In a recent investigation, Lee Newspapers reported that the price of insulin in the U.S. has tripled, quadrupled, and more in the last two years. One physician described an increase from $45 to $1,447 for one concentrated form of insulin since 2001. (quote from sept 2016)

That chart is highly exaggerated.

Also, from Consumer Reports:
As is the case with most other medications, prices can vary depending on where you fill your prescription. Our shoppers have frequently found that getting a lower price requires some shopping around. Try Walmart, where you can get Novolin N for just $25, says Jeremy A. Greene, M.D., Ph.D., associate professor of medicine and the history of medicine at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and co-author of the NEJM commentary. “Walmart has the cheapest insulin in the country. They use their distribution muscle to demand a much lower price.”
Check with Walgreens, too; we found Novolin N priced as low as $64 there. And Costco is worth a try as well, especially if you're a member. Costco pharmacies in New York and New Jersey told us it would cost $130 for Novolin N. You can fill prescriptions at Costco without being a member, but membership can bring the out-of-pocket price down to just under $100.

Remember he was spreading that hoax that America was so fat and sickly it had to be high. That's how he got a friend of mine at the time, a Diabetic fist throwing mad over a bad talk about Obamacare. He was going to get free $750 insulin shots. He didn't care that a $35 insulin shot, selling for $700 was the problem. Not mandated Healthcare, with baked in corruption and price gouging.

I personally think that Romneycare is worse than lack of Romneycare, as it was written by insurance companies. It is just a more efficient method to transfer our tax money into pockets of more deserving 0.001%-ers.
And why didn't St. Obama get us something better than Heritage Foundation Romney care???
Why did he let them call it Obamacare when he was pushing single payer plan?
What did the Republicans want us to have for healthcare? ANSWER: even Heritage foundation care was too good for us termites to get. Republican bastards want to kill us if it means FUCKING donations for reelection.

Of course the whole Trump is a nazi thing is amoungst the more baseless allegations(along with the Trump hates gays stupidity).
There hasn't been a greater ally of the ONLY Jewish nation on earth than President Trump. President Trump is about as far from a nazi as it gets. I challenge one lefty on this site to denounce the labling of President Trump as a nazi.
TRUMPSTEIN!

The Supreme Court nominations are huge to the point of Democrats running to change the rules of appointing SCJ and making finite terms.
In other words, President Trump was hugely successful in NOT following precedent of prior Republican Presidents and nominating mealy mouthed half assed conservatives.
Very very good job Mr. President. He earned my vote for re-election soley on this matter.

Yep, he's the best friend of Israel and the Jews, this is without a doubt.
I was going for the whole TDS thing about Two Minutes Hate from 1984. It's like a Leftwing bonding ritual. But when you go back in the past, the Left has always been unhinged by Republican Presidents, at least since Nixon. It's just socially acceptable now and encouraged by the Media.
The new thing is that the Ashkenazi are Privileged Whites. This is the new thing from SJWs and the pro-Pali groups (although Linda Sarsour and Rashida Taliban aren't exactly Brown). Those Academic/Educator NY/NJ Secular Jews really need to make a decision. I'm confident, however, that most will keep their allegiance to the Left.
Ironic thing is that in the UK, Jews are hated for being loyal to the Tories by the Left.

He never called Baltimore a "Rat infested Black City"
He just said Cummings should focus more on his rat infested city and do something about the sanitation issues. Rather than stoking the flames of hate, and preaching impeachment.
Yeah so there was the whole context of that going on.
As for Howard Shit my Jeans Dean. He yehawed at the news his early polling numbers were going up. I don't think the actual Primaries were even happening yet.
But because he freaked out, he lost all of his support over night. I never cared for him, or any of the other candidate. I was voting for Nader. But I thought the Democrat voters were pretty shallow and chicken shit for abandoning a guy, because he was excited he was liked better than John Kerry.

I'd say that's comic is a reality distortion field.
The Media has flipped out over Trump's Diet Coke consumption, for crissakes.
The Author believes the Media is too easy on Trump.
Wow, there are some impressively false falsehoods in that comic. Very dishonest.

NO! It was NOT!
I will never forget every single last young person I knew from the age 17 to 26, had never worked a day in their life, and had no prospects or hope to ever work. Because THEIR President laughed in their faces and called them clinger on's. Then told them the JOBS weren't coming back. Any Job under Obama, were 17 an hour min wage Job. At the new Economy Darling industries, the Corporate Fast Food business. Every company had a policy to NOT give more than 17 hours. Because Obama baked in a loophole in Obamacare to make damn sure our Youth were wasted and dependent on the Socialists. By making a law if an employee worked less than 17 hours they didn't have to have Obamacare.
The economy may have been rising before his election, but his election clearly turbo-charged the economy.

Also I remember every professional and trade person I knew over 35, that was laid off during the Housing bubble and finance collapse under Bush. Never got a job earning anywhere near the income they had before those events. The parents were under employed and their adult kids were terminally unemployed. Not only that they were disinterested.
My Daughter's friends at the time, never saw a point in their lifetime they would be employed. They also welcomed the idea,(Why fight and resist what you can't change?).
Now they all have decent jobs, and are doing quite well. None of them work in the food industry.
