Why does 23 cents a gallon seem like a bigger increase than 17 cents a gallon ??

Because it is...Jersey certainly has cheaper gas than California, but when you figure out tolls on parkway/turnpike, entering holland tunnel, lincoln tunnel, GWB or parking in city or in garages in jersey city/NY and/or getting a bus pass in addition to costs of owning car, I would think that the 1.70 or so per gallon diff between NJ and CA is not that big a deal.

Only people like my parents who basically work in same town they live and don't use toll roads, buses or drive into city/park everyday benefit from relatively cheap gas prices.

All things considered, transportation costs higher in NY/NJ vs CA

Was a well played game and was disappointing loss for America's team, who hasn't been to conference championship in over 20 years after doing it 16 times in first 30 years

No Republicans to blame for this one....

Damn high gas taxes wouldn't be needed if we didn't have to maintain the highway system that Republicans are wearing out.
Damn DEMOCRATS! milking the SOCIALIST programs.
THANK GOD THERE AREN'T ANY REPUBLICANS RECEIVING ANY SOCIALIST
REDISTRIBUTED TAX DOLLARS.

Can anyone help me find a list of Union Member/Pension SUCKING Republicans,nationwide?

Huge disservice to the state. No taxes will ever be enough, government doesn't need to be responsible with money. I'm writing this clown a letter about increasing taxes!

Those people could simply contribute more to their own retirement from their own paychecks, like everyone else does.

HEY YOU says

The topic is using a tax increase on gas to fund calpers. If you could go ahead and keep on topic, that would be great

For anyone who's wondering--this is a real tweet from 2012:

"We're all snobby Professional Upper Middle Class women, the kind that joined the Decency Committee 150 years ago to tell you masturbation was bad and that 'Breast Meat' is sinfully suggestive, so to use 'White Meat' instead."

"My body my choice! You - put down that soda! We need to ban meat! How dare you circumsize!"

The origin of the Birth Certificate and "Barak=Muslim" memes were started by the Hillary Campaign in 2007.

No tax will ever cover the infinite greed of the politician. If we gave them 100% of our earnings it wouldn't be enough.

WILL TRUMP BE SWEARING HIS OATH OF OFFICE ON A BIBLE OR AN A DEWY, DOWNY PUSSY?

Pussy. The question is whose pussy, and do we get to see it?

It seems the Democrats are setting themselves up for a hard fall in the next elections.

They are allowing the Education institutions to run amok with American Civics and are conflating Civics with acts of tyranny. They are even going as far as to chastise, ostracize and alienate white Democrats and subjugate them as Voting citizens only. I guess the Democrats honestly think they can get away with doing in reverse to the Whites what the Establishment elite did to the Black voters for all of those years. Beat them down on the Democrat plantation. Out of sight out of mind until election day. I'm curious to see how this will work out. Will our young impressionable minds 15 to 18, go through 2 and 4 more years of this ratcheting up political hostility and animosity toward a race of people(White voters). Will they abide in 2018 and 2020 and vote for their oppressors that beat them down in every school in America telling them that 250 years of history rests squarely on their shoulders. They haven't even gotten a start in life and here's Marcus to tell them what a no good rotten Racist son of a bitch they are, and how they must make amends for the crackers and vote for the Brown Democrats.

Yeah I'm going to sit over here and watch how that works out for them.

tee hee!

A friend's wife thinks she has it, uses it as an excuse to not do anything.

My firend's wife claims depression and won't work, cook, clean or take care of the kids-but has energy to shop. Can't divorce, as alimony and child support and maintaining two houses would bankrupt him. He sleeps with hookers-oh hasn't had sex in 12 years with her-because he fears she will one day divorce him anyways after the kids leave-which is his plan anyways. but then instead of giving half to her, he wants to to enjoy all the money and blow it on hookers.

Good the dems are officially the party of the SJW. It is like the Repubs embracing the KKK as their worldview-the dems have accepted the SJW as their worldview-hope they continue. May they lose another 500 seats.

Not going to a party is the low bar for being a traitor in the Trump era, huh? This is going to be a long slog through stupidville.

I think you mean yellow snowflakes. You're so adorable.

Trump is only an excuse.

the real reason they are not attending: they are too EMBARRASSED to show face after all the corruption scandals and being crushingly defeated in the house, the senate and the white house.

not attending only show what a bunch of immature, spoiled children that they are, throwing tantrums when they don't get what they want.

There will be more.

Bill O'Reilly Falafel Lawsuit Turns Ten

The lawsuit is frivolous. Bill Reilly was a celebrity even back then. And I have it on good authority that when your a celebrity women allow you do to anything. You can grab them by the pussy.

I want to see Bill O'Reilly masturbating a urinating hooker with the Jesus statue he beats the liberals with on his show. That would make him OK with Trump.

He lost interest when they wouldn't pee on each other.

If these guys end up behaving in an obstructionist manner on legislation that has public popular support, they will have to deal with unprecedented levels of negative publicity, which could cost them their districts come re-election time.

This is not a frank underwood move; these congresspersons need to ask themselves WWFUD

Nearly all very extreme left socialists from "safe" districts.

More appropriate that the be labeled cowardly lions.

I think his wife may have something to say about that. 😃

"If these guys end up behaving in an obstructionist manner on legislation that has public popular support, they will have to deal with unprecedented levels of negative publicity, which could cost them their districts come re-election time."

Well, judging by the last 8 years, I don't think there is too much for them to worry about.

How about Hillary and a black female Realtor?

Well, judging by the last 8 years, I don't think there is too much for them to worry about.

Why, were they acting in an obstructionist manner over legislation that had strong public support in the last 8 years? I hadn't heard that, maybe you have links?

Or maybe you are claiming that these congresspersons have dealt with the level of publicity for their voting records that Obama has dealt with over last 8 years; again, links or you're talking out of anus

interns are the 'currency' of every administration; some are just more vocal about it than others

there are many more. Republicans blocked a great number of bills that had strong public support. You need to listen more, I guess.

"Or maybe you are claiming that these congresspersons have dealt with the level of publicity for their voting records that Obama has dealt with over last 8 years; again, links or you're talking out of anus"

Not even sure what this means. Regardless, I answered the first part.

However, to Iron Man's point

Young M's

When I was a teenager, I had a paperroute, got chased by dogs at 5 AM. My dad told me to take the lawnmower and edger and get jobs cutting gas. I had to buy the gas (but got to use the mower for free). I built loudspeakers by winding coils for the crossover in my garage, and making an RC dual band two way crossover with any oscilloscope. I built the cabinets in my Grandpas garage, and used my moms Sansui stereo to test. I sold several, one to a teacher at school. I was a nerd carrying my loudspeaker boxes to 11th grade electronics class.

Then the lawyers came around and canceled woodworking, metalworking.
At this point the kids had a tendency to become democrats, and it was harder for them to think for themselves. The lack of woodshop, metalshop cause a "committee groupthink" that evidently still plagues democrats today.

I joined the Navy, because I was tending towards a liberal arts degree. I saved money on the GI bill for college. Litterally all of my demo friends went into liberal arts, and found college hard.

Manufacturing was still high in the 1980s, so that Cal States tuition was supplemented greatly by receipts from California massive high tech TV/Car/Computer/Appliance industry. My tuition was $328.50 the first semester, and the last semester it was just over $400. I made it though CompSci Digital Logic, Electromagnetics (Calc and Diff EQ were not bad in comparison).

Now I see O'crats everywhere - they wonder why they cant make good $$ on liberal arts degrees, (but to be fair many people shunned the arts degrees to get into tech).

Now the O'crats believe the MSM, dont even know or care about Ukraine or the surging Chinese occupation.

“I see this march as a way to make myself visible in the movement against Trump.” ― Summana, 31, N.Y.

On election night, I was sick to my stomach and I immediately thought, “What can I do?” I voted, but it wasn’t enough. I see this march as a way to make myself visible in the movement against Trump, to make sure he doesn’t ruin the country.

I’m going to take the bus in for the day. So far, I’m going alone, but I’m trying to convince my mother and some friends to come with me. Either way, I feel like I have to march because I’m frightened. I’m black. I’m Muslim. I don’t wear the hijab
