List – mostly complete, although I’m open to additional suggestions – of Democrats who, had they been elected president, would not have been fucked with by Putin:
Elizabeth Warren
Mayor Pete
Hillary Clinton
Leon Panetta
Val Demings
I wish I could add Klobuchar to this list. She has settled back into the role of spineless leftist. Hard to see her otherwise today.
Yes, I know that Leon Panetta has never run for president. We are all poorer for it.
Neither has Demings, although she was short-listed for VP, if rumors be true.
I would have no idea what Tucker Carlson has said on any given day if not for one of y’all HA libbies telling me about it.

I’m surprised you are not verifying the truth of what I wrote, The Even Bigger Fucking Moron.
Unless you already did. Yeah. It’s true. And Tulsi Gabbard took her down for it.
This is all several levels over your head, The Even Bigger Fucking Moron, but if it wasn’t, you’d be more critical of Harris. She’s the embodiment of the box-checking tone-deafness that permeates the Democrat party today.
Perhaps you’ll understand in November.
Hey Railfan, how’s public transportation between red states and blue states?
Texas clinics’ lawsuit over abortion ban ‘effectively over’
There will be permissive states and restrictive states. Which is not hard to understand, if one actually reads the Bill of Rights.
Baby-killing is not an unenumerated right. Although the parents of G-clown and The Even Bigger Fucking Moron would take issue with that, in hindsight.
@25 “She’s the embodiment of the box-checking tone-deafness that permeates the Democrat party today. “
That may be the case for her, but I would take that over the racist, white-suprematicist, Putin-lovin’, forced-children party that the Republicans have become.
Forced birth is not an unenumerated right either.
I repeat. Abortion should be safe, legal and as as rare as possible. Women should be empowered to only get pregnant when they want a kid. Every child should be a wanted child.
It is obvious that republicans do not care about kids.
@18 They don’t want to preserve their history.
But let’s be real. Once Republicans have a vaguely-worded law with which to punish teachers who say things they don’t like, they’ll use it to sweep through schools conducting witch hunts for teachers “disloyal” to their ideas.
Harris was AG of California people so 1,500 is a small number and it was illegal when she was AG. If she had not. You would have be crowing she was soft on crime.
29. They will. They have finally found a method to destroy public education. Any teacher who challenges the propaganda of the Republican apartheid state will be fired and jailed. Like putin is doing in the schools in Russia.

40,
I’ve heard it said more than once that careers in medicine are often more suitable to folks with a less sensitive or discriminating sense of smell, or just a very high tolerance for decomp odors in general.
Of course, in this case “career in medicine” could just as easily mean unloading and sorting soiled linens in a hospital laundry.
38, 39,
Don’t you get the idea?
It’s pretty clear Degen maintains some kind of enemies list of “historic” outrages against white, male fragility and periodically thumbs through them in wistful anger.
@ 46
It was in my own state, at a state-supported university. Due to the dumbfuckery that occurred, total student enrollment was nearly halved there.
At Mizzou, the protests and the Click-associated dumbfuckery resulted in a new-student enrollment drop of nearly one-third.
Parents care about what happens to their kids. They already pay tax dollars to support public education dumbfuckery. Doesn’t mean they have to pay tuition to support it, too.
18)They even have issues with books by Brad Meltzer. Specifically his, I am series, with “I am Rosa Parks”.
26)Hey, But-in ski, Don’t know, you see, as a man, I stay out of that issue. I got no right to tell a woman what to do.
46… And trots out someone from his enemies list of “historic” outrages against white, male fragility when we start the topic of “Republicans now have a vaguely-worded law with which to punish teachers who say things they don’t like, they’ll use it to sweep through schools conducting witch hunts for teachers “disloyal” to their ideas.” to try to change the subject.
Then public libraries will be stripped since kids go into public libraries.
Purging the internet will have to be next since kids have phones and computers. Republicans will go after every tech company and internet provider who transmits “disloyal ideas” to children and adults will also be blocked while “protecting the children.”
Putin will be proud.
Question for the room. How long could this last? If conservative states outlaw all ideas they deem that challenges their supremacy, does it end? How does it end?

Yes, who the fuck is Jussie Smollett, and who cares? I doubt 90% had even ever heard of him until he became the republican cause celebre.
36)Tried not to respond to hi, too much, but you did a great job. Meanwhile, the Racist Intel lost his last person here not calling him that.
Meanwhile, if I was the California legislature, I would authorize local transit districts taxing authority for a lawsuit insurance fund, and make these judgements collectible only through it whether the authorities have it or not. I doubt the special tax would pass, you need 67% for local taxes to pass in California, especially if it’s from a government authority. It’s one of the reasons SD lost the chargers.
Also, good luck from a Texas Conservative suing a bus driver or conductor in Davis, CA. They definitely don’t have $10,000 to pay. If they looked up Unitrans in Davis, they would get the drift.

Jussie Smollett was a gay black actor who tried to frame trumpers to call attention to their misdeeds. He stupidly thought that since James O’Keefe and Andy Ngo get away with framing liberals, he could do the same to conservatives. He found out the rules are enforced different for liberals.
@40 You get the horse’s ass. He enjoys it more than you do. That’s why he lets you do it.
51,
Try to keep in mind that none, literally none of this is new or novel.
It comes in cycles. Remember Anita Bryant and “Save Our Children”?
Degen does. Fo sho. Two brief years of celebrated strident national bigotry followed by more than three decades of legal and political setback and defeat culminating in Obergfell. Bryant lives alone and penniless in Oklahoma shoveling manure.
I was a student at the University of Missouri in the 1960s; it was a racist campus, and Columbia was a racist town, back then and apparently neither had changed very much 50 years later.
Hence the protests. As for dropping student enrollments, doesn’t surprise me at all. I dropped my enrollment there, too. The University of Washington is a much better school in all respects.
The progressive writer Thorstein Veblen once called Columbia “the woodpecker hole in a rotten stump called Missouri.” Having lived there, I don’t disagree. I could tell you stories.
While watching the Sounders FC game, saw an ad for the New USFL. Hope they keep the owner of the Generals in the old USFL away. Saw the 30 for 30 on the old one, some placed the blame on the Generals owner. His idea to move to the fall.
I remember meeting a girl in one of my classes who was majoring in romance languages. She told me she wanted to become an engineer, but they wouldn’t let her. This was when McDonnell Aircraft was a huge employer in St. Louis, building F-4 Phantoms. She was smart, and good at math so she enrolled in Mizzou’s School of Engineering. She was asked by the dean to withdraw from the School of Engineering because engineering was a man’s job. More than one professor told her she would not receive a passing grade in his class, again because engineering was a man’s job. They also told her she wouldn’t get a job in the field because engineering was a man’s job. She was encouraged to become a teacher. So she majored in romance languages.
I could tell you more stories, like how the frat boys would dress up in Confederate cavalry uniforms and ride horses through the campus on some Confederate holiday (I forget which one). A hundred years later, Quantrill’s raiders were still popular among that set.
Whatever happened at Evergreen State College, and I wouldn’t know because I was never there (some fragile conservative student’s feelings were hurt?), I doubt it’s worse than the environment at Mizzou.
A friend of mine in the journalism school went to Selma to cover the civil rights marches and personally witnessed what the police did and told me how terrified he felt just as a press observer.
61)Now the successor company that built the F-4 is running ads promoting Women in STEM fields.
Sounds like those professors would not survive in the timeline of the TV Series For All Mankind. The Soviets following up putting Leonov on the Moon two weeks before Armstrong and Aldryn, by putting a woman on the moon, leads to NASA recruiting women Astronauts, and the state that stopped ratification in real life of the ERA votes in favor(bought off by NASA Contracts, don’t like the writers doing that, it led to a few accidents that maligned the real life Saturn V’s perfect record ) . Can’t wait to sync my Apple TV account to my xfinity account. So I can watch For All Mankind on something other than the iPad. Still, I love the show , especially Season 2 with the Space Shuttle having few delays, and 10 were built by 1983. Enterprise was an operational shuttle, with Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, Endeavor plus 4 others, Beagle, Victoria, Constitution, and Kon Tiki. In Ep1 of Season 2, the last one was shown docked at SkyLab. SkyLab worked in the show, although thought they would skip it entirely, as in Season 1, they put all the efforts into the Jamestown base on the Moon.

Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit’s repeated use of racial slurs is now much more easily explained.
Sound Transit, King County Metro, Pierce Transit, Community Transit, Everett Transit, Kitsap Transit, and Washington State Ferries rolled out the Orca Card system in 2009. Now they are rolling out the replacement. Seen something similar in Portland, but the Central Puget Sound agencies are not adopting the Fare capping option. Love the idea of being able to reload value on the card via an app instead of the Ticket Vending Machine. On a side note, CT needs to replace the TVMs at SWIFT Stations with something similar to what Sound Transit uses. Especially with SWIFT due to connect with LINK once tge Lynwood Extension opens.

Beto now says he’s opposed to CRT being taught in schools.
Next week Beto will support in-school instruction on the proper use of AR-15 for every student in the Texas primary school education system. He’s Wendy Davis, but with a DUI history.
He’s saving it for the general, but Beto will also come out as pro-life.
64)Except Transit seems to get people to care when fuel prices go up. Also, comes in handy,for the sports crowds. Sounders FC, Kraken, Seahawks, Mariners, all provide riders. My Great Uncle wondered why the Kingdome, and it’s replacements weren’t built in Kent. This is why, T-Mobile Field and Lumen Field are astride major transportation hubs,.
Metro has always seen ridership spike with gas prices going up. First time, nearly 50 years ago, and thankfully they had a few good people left from Seattle Transit to show them how. From what I read about Metropolitan Transit Co, they literally had no idea what they were doing. Their buyout went to creditors, Seattle gave Metro back it’s money from the purchase of Seattle Transit so Metro could begin the rebuild of Seattle’s trackless trolley network. Hopefully Metro will have the 48 fully electrified next year, Wished they could do the same with the 8 but there are longer wire gaps on Denny and MLK Jr Way. Just like the 48, residents had to petition hard to get the 8 extended down MLK Jr way to close a gap in crosstown services. The 48 is a success, believe Seattle Transit started it around the time of the Thompson Expressway debacle.
Seen an example in my neighborhood of how bus routes can be changed. Like what we got now with Route 50, but the route it replaced, the 39 Seward Park changed over decades. Originally a series of Municipal Street Railway shuttle bus routes, under Seattle Transit, it ran from Mt Baker via 38th, a quick cut over Dakota to Rainier, then it’s longtime routing via Genessee, 50th Ave S, through Seward Park and onto Seward Park Ave to Rainier where it met with the suburban operator at Lakeridge Park. Metro played with it over the years,, with a downtown routing on the North end, curtailing the south end to RB, then adding service to Southcenter, and through routing to North Seattle. Frequency was always the problem. In its final years, just like the 50, the 39 fed into LINK at 3 stations, but tough connection between a constantly late every half hour bus and a timely train running pretty frequently.
Too bad the low IQ dumbfuck traitor’s search attempts failed to find even a single one of those alleged slurs.
That makes the low IQ dumbfuck traitor’s attempt dredge this up again nearly as lame as his store-bought fucking manhood.
“We don’t see CRT being taught in our schools right now. It is a course that is taught in law schools,” O’Rourke said. Immediately after his comment, a member of the audience asked if O’Rourke supported CRT in schools, to which the gubernatorial candidate said, “No, I don’t think [CRT] should be taught in our schools.”
I agree with Beto, CRT is not meant for K-12 schools. There are elements that overlap, but CRT is meant for Law schools.
Critical Race Theory is not being taught in pre school.
Critical Race Theory is not being taught in elementary school.
Critical Race Theory is not being taught in Junior High.
Critical Race Theory is not being taught in High School.
Critical Race Theory might be taught in Law school.
“There is little to no evidence that critical race theory itself is being taught to K-12 public school students, though some ideas central to it, such as lingering consequences of slavery, have been.”
“Critical race theory is not something we teach to students,” said Lisa Luten, a spokeswoman for the school system. “It’s more of a theory in academia about race that adults use to discuss the context of their environment.”
“But the theory also has become somewhat of a catchall phrase to describe racial concepts some conservatives find objectionable, such as white privilege, systemic inequality and inherent bias.”

But I could cite facts till I was blue in the face, facts won’t stop the greed racist incel and other republicans from lying endlessly. It’s what they are. It’s what they do. They do not want to be better people.
The greedy racist incel lies constantly that Rabbit is a bigot, in an attempt to defect from his daily racist, bigoted, homophobic, sexist things he posts. He lies, in an attempt to tear down his enemies, so he doesn’t feel so awful about himself. He is not trying to be a better person so he is trying to lie that Rabbit is as bad as he is.

@64 I think we can all agree that public transportation doesn’t work in counties with a population density of 20 people per square mile and that without urban gas tax money those people would have to get around by riding donkeys on dirt paths.
The point is, if you wanna whine about transportation subsidies, I can whine louder than you.
I say cut you off, not one more nickel for your paved highways, it’s time for you rural freeloaders to pay your own way. And ferries. It’s time to charge you island-living freeloaders the full cost of maintaining your privileged lifestyle. I never ride ferries and I’m tired of subsidizing them.
See what I mean? You wanna play that game, I’ll shove it right back up your ass, same as I would Putin and his nukes.

So what.
@80 Wikipedia says Island County is 381 vs. 384 for Snohomish County, but the latter has a lot of unpopulated square miles (over half the county is national forest or wilderness area), so the inhabited portion is more densely populated, and unlike Island County it has an urban center (and mass transportation). King County’s density (1,087) is nearly 3x greater (Seattle proper is 8,775. L.A. County, by comparison, is 2,468; and Manhattan is 74,780.) But there’s no question that Doctor Dumbfuck’s Island County acreage is a shithole.

This is about as rancid a case of police corruption as you can get.
A black guy complains to his boss about racist behavior by his co-workers. The boss gets his fishing buddy, the local police chief, to have the black guy arrested on false charges.
The black guy eventually got $415k from his employer and $600k from the city. The police chief retired on a pension after being arrested for DUI. The chief who succeeded him was fired for defending the corrupt cops and calling the cop who falsified the police report a victim (the city decided to clean up its image).
On Friday, the cop who falsified the police report was charged with a misdemeanor.
Before this case, three officers with that department had accused the corrupt cops of false arrests and lying in previous cases.
None of these corrupt cops will go to jail for any of this.

Two thirds of electricity in Texas is produced from natural gas and coal use. Add in nuclear and it’s at nearly 80%. That’s what is used to generate the electricity to run EVs.
Not every state has hydroelectric, Goldy. And not every citizen feeds themself through the benevolence of a billionaire, for that matter, but I digress.

At this rate…
At what rate? Railfan, are you just gonna go ACAB?
How about All Metro Employees Are Out To Screw The Public? ’cause one or two of them probably are faking sore backs so they can get early pension.
There’s a moral difference, Railfan, between you and POS like Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit. You should do everything you can not to engage in his dumbfuckery.
@99 The greedy racist incel is a hypocrite who brands all black men as thugs, yet is complaining when the same broad brush is being applied to cops as corrupt.
@98. The greedy racist incel is upset he doesn’t have a trumper millionaire paying him. Silly man. Trumpers don’t pay their their debts.
For example, Trump took in the raffle money and didn’t pay out a dinner.

Republicans may still elect him because he’s not a Democrat, but they go into it, knowing that he’s a corrupt businessman like trump. Maybe that’s a selling feature to republicans. They want guys who screw the employees, so long it’s not them.
Maybe the greedy racist incel can get Mr Walker to bank roll his writings? Get the money first.

105)I’ve been busy at work lately. Office renovations complete, plus more people returning to the office means more work. I’m the only one worried about the excessive overtime, for now. Was in a tough spot Friday night. Don’t know why the first bus didn’t show, might be a diver shortage, but could also be, because the 32 is assigned out of North Base. South Campus in Tukwilla is where new busses except trolleys arrive, North Base in Shoreline is where ones due to be retired tend to end their careers. Currently the 31/32 since the October service change, have been using Orion VIIs, 2009 purchase, now the oldest 40ft busses in the fleet. Used to be with Seattle Transit and for the first half of Metro’s existence, that would still be considered fairly new. The industry standard for retirement is 12 years.Bus could have broken down. Not all passengers are like me, who tries not to break it. Case in point, my stop on Nickerson is very close to the previous one, I make sure not to pull the chord at the last minute, partly because it’s a long walk from the next stop on the32.
Probably might be getting some of the XDE40s and Gillig Advantage from South transferred to North once the Battery-Electrics enter service. They are a replacement for the Diesel bus, not the trolleys like Governor Baker’s idiots at the MBTA just did to Boston’s small fleet. The plan is replacing them with BEB’s that have diesel heaters. The Boston fleet had an oddity, a door on the left side to access an underground platform near Harvard.
@ 106
By the way, unlike you, the others here are entertaining.
Unlike me, the others here don’t give two shits about what you post, and don’t learn anything from it because they largely ignore you.
I read every one of your posts and about 20% of the time I end up looking something up because of what you write.
I’m not here for entertainment. I’m here to learn something I don’t already know. I don’t give you shit, in most cases, unless it’s because I looked something up and realized that there might be another way of looking at things.
It wasn’t me who compared the Chargers to public transit. If you got pushback, Railfan, it’s because you deserve it.
Speak for Putin all you want, you fucking low IQ traitor. That you think for even a nanosecond that you speak for anyone here about how we view ER only goes to show low IQ fucking stupid you are.
ER is not only a good and decent man, he’s quite knowledgeable about transportation. It’s his thing and I respect that and read his comments. Your thing is low IQ treason and showing your love for Putin and your raging orange man-baby.
One of the more remarkable things I’ve seen play out here was you earning the utter contempt that ER seems to hold for you.
Mississippi, 2013-2016
136 pregnancy-related deaths. They include
• 51 directly related to pregnancy
• 23 maybe or maybe not pregnancy-related (breast cancer, cardiomyopathy, etc)
• 62 unrelated to pregnancy. Of these:
• 33 motor vehicle deaths – largest single cause of death in
pregnant and post-partum women in MS
• 10 homicides
• 7 suicides
• 9 drug ODs
The study examined post-partum as birth to 6 weeks, or after 6 weeks. It didn’t examine, say, first through fourth quarters after birth, which would be useful to determine whether additional coverage was needed after 6 months or so. It was an examination of death certificates, not medical records Nope, they just wanted to increase the duration of coverage six-fold, without looking at whether doubling or tripling it would be enough.
Not everything requires a knee-jerk response. Had a bill been written to expand care to women in their 40s
it would have passed, because the numbers support it and the cost is far less.
The link is the whole study report. It’s a shitty study. It’s why the bill failed. For 2017-2020, actual medical records can be used to try to find something useful to guide legislators, rather than a generalized recommendation based on shitty study design.
Medicaid doesn’t help shitty drivers. Medicaid doesn’t keep boyfriends from stabbing their girlfriends or prevent women from hoopin’ the George Floyd cocktail at 37 weeks, when it’s a near-term baby on their diaphragm instead of a knee on their neck that causes the hypoxia. Medicaid doesn’t help if obese women (> 2/3 of the deaths in the cardiac and thromboembolic categories were to obese women) use the money they save for a couple of extra trips to Popeye’s each week.
It was a shitty study.
I probably mentioned it before, ER, but a very good friend of mine was the late Elmer Van Ness, the man who saved the Seattle trolley system when a program was already in place to convert the entire fleet to diesel.
Post-partum Medicaid dollars could have been used to help this poor soul:
EDM musician Charles Ingalls died from cocktail of drugs including cocaine, fentanyl
If we’re gonna spend Medicaid dollars because of ODs, why should we only spend them on women? Seems rather misandrist to me.
I seriously doubt that anybody here, including ER, gives a flying fuck anymore about what you think about anything.
My only remaining interest in a low IQ POS traitor like you is seeing to it that you receive suitable punishment for your fucking treason.
You’re a low IQ POS traitor.
Don’t bother thanking me for contributing to your fucking education. I’ll soon collect payment-in-full from you on my terms, and you’re not going to like it.
@ 114
I just looked at the study again. Not one word about cigarette smoking. Probably because it’s not on a death certificate.
Incidence of smoking during pregnancy in Mississippi is in the same reported range as that in Maine. And Oregon.

I thought it would be a lot higher.

111 the greedy racist incel has a whole lot of hate directed towards women and blacks as usual. Best i tell his argument is women and their newborns don’t deserve supportive health care because that money is not being spent on men. Be a better person not a hypocrite. You cannot claim to be pro life and then deny services because you are greedy.
I wonder what Tucker, the new darling of the Russian press,

@ 120
Be a better person not a hypocrite. You cannot claim to be pro life…
I have never claimed to be pro-life. Probably because I’m pro-choice. Most likely for some of the reasons that you are pro-choice.
The Even Bigger Fucking Moron, the reason I bring up pro-life perspectives is 1) what’s the fun if everyone writes about the same position? If I want to chant, I’ll go to a protest and chant the same thing as all of the other protesters there. I don’t want to chant. And 2) some of the pro-life positions are pretty defensible, at least as far as states’ rights are concerned. Oh, yeah, there’s also the Daniel Patrick Moynihan perspective. He was pro-choice. Nearly all of the time.

Mitt doesn’t love Tulsi quite as much as does our low IQ traitor.

Tulsi Gabbard is parroting false Russian propaganda. Her treasonous lies may well cost lives.
1:59 PM · Mar 13, 2022·Twitter for iPhone
What was that about Hillary calling Tulsi a Russian “asset”?
She’s a Democrat, and tampered with her own fucking election.
@ 137
Steve, what is it about Tulsi Gabbard’s comments that constitutes treason?
And as far as Hillary calling Gabbard a Russian asset, Steve, it’s payback for Gabbard blowing the whistle in 2016 on the stench that was DNC’s handling of the primary election season.
You remember that, don’t you, Steve? The DNC’s corruption that year – it’s part of what got us President Trump.
The 1/6 insurrection inspired by Trump didn’t bother our low IQ traitor. GQP election tampering didn’t bother him. He certainly wasn’t triggered by Russia invading Ukraine or Tucker being a critical Russian asset.
What on earth does it take to trigger a low IQ dumbfuck traitor??
Okay, triggered. And all it took was a township clerk.
I suggest you take that up with Mitt.

You’re a parrot, Steve. A sexless parrot with a permanently fractured spine.
Looks like the Luftwaffe will be getting F-35s to replace some of their aging Tornados. Probably the CTOL version, but perhaps they should get a few of the STOVL version as well. A little extra basing flexibility.

@130 “some of the pro-life positions are pretty defensible, at least as far as states’ rights are concerned”
Which states, whose rights, and which rights?
The devil is in the details.
@133 Cherry-picking at the most demented level.
One of Doctor Dumbfuck’s favorite tricks is stereotyping. As in: this trans person is a horrible person, therefore trans people are horrible people, and it follows from that they’re not entitled to the same treatment or legal protections as the rest of us.
@138 Now do Tina Peters.
The correct answer is they both should be removed.
“Election officials must uphold the integrity of their positions,” Attorney General Dana Nessel, a Democrat, said Friday in a news release. “Those who abuse that commitment undermine the very foundation of our democracy.”
Dana Michelle Nessel is an American lawyer and politician who is the 54th Attorney General of Michigan. She is a member of the Democratic Part.
That’s the difference between Democrats and Republicans. Democrats believe the the Rule of Law applies to everyone, including other Democrats. Republicans believe in the Rule of Power so laws apply for as long as they get republicans into power.
“Daniel Patrick Moynihan” Senator from over 20 years ago. More of the Dennis Miller schtik. Next the greed racist incel will be referencing the politics of “James Michael Mead”, except he probably would not, because Senator Mead was part of an extended debate on whether Senator Theodore G. Bilbo would be permitted to take his seat after winning reelection in 1946. The committee uncovered evidence that the racist Bilbo had sanctioned violence against African American veterans who attempted to vote in Mississippi’s 1946 elections
@145. Unless they are cops and then every last one of them is blameless, especially if they murder a black man. The greedy racist incel has been very clear about that.
I take it you’re not going to take it up with Mitt.
137, 141,
Gabbard is absolutely a Putin asset insofar as, like Degen, she is actively invested in and engaged in ongoing criticism of liberal democracy.
Authoritarian regimes presiding over managed democracies, like Russia, Brasil, India, and Venezuela, are constantly burdened with demonstrating “prosperity through strength”. And part of that burden includes ongoing criticism and political destabilization of liberal democracies that surround them. For that they need assets within those liberal democracies like Gabbard, Ron Johnson, Tucker Carlson, Trump, and Degen.
