I go to West Seattle via bus quite frequently, and I never noticed any problem with the bus shelters Metro is removing (h/t). That shelter in particular has some very neat history on it. I always appreciated those plates. Hopefully they can at least go somewhere. Also, maybe my least favorite thing in Seattle is when it rains hard and too many people share too few bus shelters.

Clinton never even stopped by a United Auto Workers union hall in Michigan, though a person involved with the campaign noted bitterly that the UAW flaked on GOTV commitments in the final days, and that AFSCME never even made any, despite months of appeals.

Aw, c’mon. Cut #CrookedHillary some slack, wouldja? She was busy reaching out to Goldman Sachs.
Don’t worry Carl, Dow and Ed have your back. They’re targeting the least well-off households for massive regressive transit taxing. You may lose your bus stop, but households here will be bled fiscally.

Two questions;
How long will it take to remove the missile defense system in Europe to make Putin happy?
How long will it take Putin to snap up the Balkans?
@ 6
Oh, sure. Now libbies feign an interest in defending Europe.
Poland and the Czech Republic reply with a hearty Fuck You, Special Snowflake.
Vanity Fair keeping you informed.
On December 15, Clinton is having a big party in Manhattan at the Plaza Hotel, once owned by Trump, for her campaign donors, as a sort of thank-you and keep-in-touch farewell. It is expected to cost more than $100,000 and be paid for with excess campaign funds.
http://www.vanityfair.com/news.....er-clinton
Y’all got your invites, amirite?
Maybe if #CrookedHillary had chosen to advertise in Wisconsin, there wouldn’t be excess campaign funds. Priorities.
Oh. I think I read last week that Team Clinton spent $1.2B on this election, while Team Trump spent $600M.
#CrookedHillary handpicked her opponent, outspent him 2-to-1, and still lost.
Should be an awesome soiree, tho.

If it weren’t for the AMA, Obama’s signature legislative achievement would be handing Iran the Get Out Of Jail Free card, Steve.

Americans Expect Donald Trump’s Policies To Favor The Rich
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....5aded4f2de
Libbies, I wish to express my sincere gratitude for your selection of #CrookedHillary to be the liberal standard-bearer this year. I am particularly indebted to the DNC and assorted national Democrat hierarchy types, and to people like Goldy, who played such an instrumental role in snuffing out any pro-Sanders insurrection over his mistreatment, which might have otherwise emerged during the aftermath of the primary election season.
It truly is a blessed holiday season this year, and each of you played an instrumental role. Peace.
Oh, and good tidings!
“How long will it take Putin to snap up the Balkans?”
Add Ukraine and the Republic of Georgia. As Trump says, “to the victor belong the spoils”.
“I wish to express my sincere gratitude to Vladimir Putin and his loyalists in the GOP”
Fixed it, you fucking traitor.
Good news! The UK’s Guardian has a story that Julian Assange says the hack on Hillary’s campaign was an inside job. If it’s an inside job, it should be easy to identify and punish the perpetrators.
Whatever the outcome, Putin will still be viewed as a hero in Russia because the Russian people will continue to think that Putin’s people did the hack and Assange is lying. Putin’S a rock star in Russia.
@ 12
I will transmit this information to Vladimir.
@ 13
If it’s an inside job, it should be easy to identify and punish the perpetrators.
If it’s an inside job it’s a leak and not a hack.
Man, Representative Gabbard looks better by the day, doesn’t she?

Obama’s first Sec. of Energy was a Nobel Prize winning physicist. Trump’s Sec. of Energy pick couldn’t remember the word “Energy.”
Our president of these 50 states thought he was running to be president of 57.
All high level hacks are “inside jobs” to some extent.
Breaching most security systems requires some degree of social engineering. You’d be surprised what kind of information busy stressed out people will share over the phone. Ask any real hacker. As usual, Assange draws media attention by stating the obvious. Yet more fake news.
And Putin’s a rock star in Russia because it appears to most of the world that he owns the next President of the United States. That has major implications well beyond our borders. Project for a New American Century just became Project for a New Russian Century.

– he truly lives in a Seattle shithole; it isn’t just his online persona.
– his investment portfolio is an embarrassment, rather than something he should be crowing about on a daily basis.
– he’s not worth the time it would take to run a scam on him.

You havent had pussy since pussy had you.
@1 “Have you hugged a coddled union member today?”
I’ll bet you haven’t because you were too busy shedding tears for poor misunderstood CEOs.
Boob thinks anyone who makes over $15,000 a year is “coddled,” but there’s an exemption for six, seven, and eight figure earners, just as they’re exempt (or soon will be) from paying taxes.
@4 Don’t forget Medicare.
@6 I’m sure Tillerson will gladly trade a few million people’s freedom for billions of barrels of Russian oil.
(Full disclosure: Roger Rabbit owns Exxon stock and will profit from this debacle.)
@9 At least greedy doctors know a good thing when they see it, As I recall, you were too shit-for-brains to glom onto that gravy train until after the fact.
@10 My stocks are doing great, too. And since I’m a hare, the impending overturn of Roe v. Wade won’t affect me personally. In fact, it might create business opportunities. Boob, think of all the contract work you’ll get providing medical services to Trump’s concentration camps for Muslims, illegals, climate scientists, pipeline protesters, and other enemies of the people. We’re both going to be filthy rich!
I think I posted a few days ago how Syria, now that Russia is our best friend, will also be our best friend.
This should be fun to watch. I wonder how Isreal feels about that possible allied relationship.

Do you get any Pussy or get grabby with any pussy in Mom’s basement?
Russia nixes UN outgoing leader from talking about LGBT. This is is what Russia is all about, and this is why Americans can easily live Russia. Freedom? Freedom is all bullshit just like the deficit is to a conservative.

Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit, you are underperforming the market by 4+ percent this year.
You stupid fuck, you have nothing to brag about. Your active stock-picking strategy is leaving you further behind.
My Notadumbfuck Method of investing is validated. It’s simple, really. Want above-market returns? Just read what Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit does, and do the opposite.
@19 It’s probably true my investment portfolio is a withered little twig compared to yours. I didn’t have a Medicare tit to suck on like you did. On the other hand, when your Republican buddies in Congress begin means-testing Social Security and Medicare benefits, yours will be among the first to go.
@29 Trolls on this blog are pretty familiar with goat pussy.
@32 Since you’re so fucking smart, what’s your return this year? Give us some hard numbers to look at. Or are you afraid to?
“Project for a New American Century just became Project for a New Russian Century”
It’s the New World Order our trolls have hated and despised for years, a world divided up between a handful of authoritarian and totalitarian oligarchies. Poor trolls…betrayed again. Sad!
“Trolls on this blog are pretty familiar with goat pussy.”
I can see now how that goat thing of theirs might have begun with goat pussy-grabbing and then it progressively got worse from there.
The Fed not only raised interest rates today, but anticipating Trump Inflation, indicated it will raise interest rates 9 more times over the next 3 years. The Dow dropped triple digits. Wouldn’t surprise me if Boob’s stocks went down $50,000 today. If he’s playing with stock options, he might have lost another $50,000 on top of that. At this rate, he may need a minimum wage job soon, to make ends meet in retirement. I’ll bet then he’ll be glad that he fought against increasing the $7.25 wage rate.
I’ve always suspected the Republican grass roots was a bunch of traitors. Now, scientific polling data confirm it.

Since I’m so fucking smart, I’m not going to share my portfolio worth or my home valuation online.
Actually, anyone with common sense would know not to do that.
Anyone with common sense.
It’s not how high the return is, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit. It’s how much tax minimization can be accomplished.
Selling losers to harvest tax losses makes the remaining holdings look better.
Donating the most appreciated winners to avoid the gain and to collect the deduction robs the portfolio of its biggest gainers and makes the remaining holdings look worse.
But each activity minimizes taxes. That’s the name of the game – keeping more after the tax has been paid.
What a sad, sad life it must be to watch one’s portfolio on a daily basis, because one has not much better to do.
Sad.
And, another.

Hey guys, I think we should cut Boob some slack. It is quite apparent that his lashing out is a result of him not being able to accept the outcome of this election and what is about to become the catastrophic collapse of America the Exceptionalist Society. It is tough to feel good about it, especially if as an individual you clamored for the days of making America Great Again.
The poor guy, if he didn’t have this place here as an outlet to vent and lash out there is no telling if he’d be putting a gun to his head right now.

Now the loon. There is no hope for the Ape. The Ape is past the point of no return
“But don’t hold your breath waiting for Darrell Issa or Trey Gowdy to hold hearings on this.”

Satellite imagery confirms that China is installing weapons on all 7 of the man-made islands it has built in the South China Sea, which contain military airstrips. These bases straddle sea lanes that carry a third of the world’s ocean-borne trade. Anyone still want to argue that China doesn’t intend to kick the U.S. Navy out of Asia?
http://www.cnn.com/2016/12/14/.....index.html
Roger Rabbit Commentary: I’ve been posting for some time now that the U.S. needs to take China’s military buildup seriously, and to increase military spending, because a conflict with China likely is coming, and we don’t want to be caught unprepared. And Trump needs to get his head out of his ass and realize the powers that be in Beijing intend to make nice only insofar as we give them for free what they otherwise intend to take by military force. That includes Taiwan and the entire South China Sea, plus pose enough of a military threat to sway the foreign policies of Japan, Phillippines, and other countries in the area in their direction.
During the campaign, Drumpf promised to replace Janet Yellen. Yellen, whose term at the Federal Reserve isn’t up until 2018, just told him to take a hike.

“They’re trying to destabilize democracy all over the world. Not just here,” he said about the Russians. “Here’s what we should do. We should tell the Russians that on no uncertain terms, you interfere in our elections, we don’t care why, we’re going to hit you and hit you hard, we’re going to introduce sanctions, it’ll to be bipartisan.”

Union psyche, boiled down to a couple of telling sentences.
“What they’ve done is not necessarily falsification. … There are a lot of nuances here,” Jeter said. “If someone actually went out and falsified the work that they do, then that’s one thing. If there is a culture of how they report, and what they’re told to do … that’s something else.”

In the public sector there is still a place where this behavior is OK.
In the private sector this behavior is a big reason why union membership has fallen so precipitously.

How does he catch up after his poor management and resultant underperformance? He can’t. Unless he’s going to start playing options or otherwise further exposing his family by engaging in excessively risky behavior.
He’s fucked his family’s future through poor decision making, and all the while he has bragged about it. Incessantly bragged about it.

Hubris: Campaigning in Arizona. Team Clinton thinking they knew better than one of their own, perhaps the Democrats’ greatest-ever campaigner, former president Bill.
Downright ignorance: Failure to realize there was zero connection between your candidate and the traditional blue-collar work and African-American bases, because First! Woman! President! was going to cover it.

@125 You call that a post? Cat got your tongue? Btw, how’s your mattress money doing these days? Have you made a 1% return yet? Or will that take another 6 or 7 years?
Puddy has a job. Boob still works. Pissface says he has a construction gig. Roger Rabbit isn’t a wage slave like them. He’s a capitalist who sits on his fat rabbit ass all day doing nothing. Who would YOU rather be? Puddy, Boob, Pissface, or Roger Rabbit?
126 – How should government be run, Roger? What’s your idea of the methodology of running government?
128
Nevermind the fact that you were “wage slave” for 50 years…..big deal dickhead, you thonk u are the only person who is retired?
Just shut the fuck up already, you been played.
Had you invested $10,000 in 1987 in MSFT and held it until 2000, your annualized return would have been approximately 72.53% per year. If you had invested $10,000 in Worlds of Wonder in 1987, your return would have been 0%, and your $10,000 would have vanished into the ether.
That’s why diversification is important.
NBA broadcaster Craig Sager died today at 65. He wore the colorful clothes on TNT!
@129 It’s unfortunate you have to ask and this needs to be explained to you. Government and businesses serve different purposes and operate in different ways. I suggest you look at a college catalog and read the curricula for the business school and the school of public administration, noting how the course offerings differ, which may help you understand that business graduates are not trained to run government, and public administrators are not trained to run a business.
The core values of the business world, competition and making a profit, don’t apply to government functions in the same way or at all. For example, public libraries and parks are not competitive enterprises, nor are they designed or intended to make a profit. Instead, a budget for those “public goods” is developed through a democratic process, then is managed to provide the best library and park services possible within the given budget.
Government is often called upon to do things that businesses can’t or won’t do because they are uneconomic or unprofitable, such as providing flood insurance, or so costly that only government has the resources to undertake them, such as providing military security for the nation. How would you manage the Coast Guard’s law enforcement, and search and rescue functions, as a profit-making enterprise? In that case, you should be managing for highest effectiveness, not lowest cost or greatest efficiency. If the goal of an education system is to educate as many students as possible, then saving money by closing schools results in failure, not success.
Legislative processes, public hearings, etc., are inefficient but essential to democracy and citizen participation. Managing a business and governing require different skill sets. Most businesses are managed from the top down; governing requires seeking citizen input, negotiation, and compromise.
Business managers have more freedom of action; politicians and public administrators are constrained by complex laws and regulations, and must do things “by the book” so as to treat everyone equally under the law.
Business and public management differ in so many ways they are different disciplines, which is why colleges have separate schools of business and public administration. It’s sad you’re so ignorant of the world around you that this has to be spelled out for you, Jack.

“Hey, don’t overlook that I’m outperforming Puddy by a factor of, oh, approximately 200x.”
The loon giving all of his money to Ben Carson wasn’t much of an investment.
@124 PissCan will have to ask his Mommy that question.
Hands down Rog the answers to your question is You! Not because of your money or because you’re retired or a rabbit, but I’d rather be smarter like you as demonstrated in your response to the moron at 129 rather than A Mommies Basement PissCan who claims he works in construction (he couldn’t even be a plan clerk), or some loonie Ape, of a failed doctor who has to read images because he wasn’t smart enough to be a real doctor.
“bragging up his own shit while looking down his nose at others”
Pretty much describes our resident racist radiologist. It’s not like it required a Ouija board to figure out our wealthy, options-playing, bullied-by-blacks-as-a-kid Doctor Hashtag’s bullshit, which includes spending half his time in a cesspool hating on Roger for what are Doctor Twit’s own attributes. What a fucking loser.
@104 Read it and weep babbling buffoon:
“U.S. intelligence officials now believe with “a high level of confidence” that Russian President Vladimir Putin became personally involved in the covert Russian campaign to interfere in the U.S. presidential election, senior U.S. intelligence officials told NBC News.
Two senior officials with direct access to the information say new intelligence shows that Putin personally directed how hacked material from Democrats was leaked and otherwise used. The intelligence came from diplomatic sources and spies working for U.S. allies, the officials said.”

You bleat “really”… Anything “real” means nothing to you babbling jackass.
SAD!
Dr Ben at HUD is a great investment QPPS!
@131 You’ve just proved you’re an investing hayseed. Anybody can say you should’ve bought Microsoft in 1987. We’d all be billionaires if we could guess things like this in advance. It’s the oldest con in the game.
Everyone knows investors should diversify, but not for your reason. The purpose of diversifying is not to increase your chances of picking a stock like Starbucks or Microsoft, but to limit the damage any one holding can do to your portfolio. Diversifying a portfolio serves the same function as watertight bulkheads in a ship.
My dear loyal HA readers, when you hear someone talk about beating the market, run the other way! There are two things wrong with such talk. (1) Nobody can do it. (2) You don’t have to.
I don’t care whether the Dow or S&P beats my portfolio. I don’t even look at those numbers. The only number I care about is 1 x 1.03 x 1.03 x 1.03 …
Getting lucky with Starbucks was nice, but I’m looking for stocks that pay a 3% dividend, raise it 3% every year, and appreciate 3% every year. Then I compound those returns by reinvesting them. If you can do that, each $1 you invest will be worth $2 after 13 years, $3 after 20 years, $4 after 25 years, $5 after 29 years, $7 after 34 years, and $10 after 40 years. This is a sure thing, because math never varies.
The fact is, many companies do better than 3%-3%-3%, which makes your investment dollar earn even more, if you simply keep reinvesting the proceeds. I intentionally set the bar low to demonstrate how powerful the compounding principle is.
I don’t like mutual funds or ETFs, but if you want to put your money in any index fund, there’s nothing wrong with that. That’s probably what you should do if you don’t know anything about investing and/or don’t want to spend any time on it.
As our resident idiot trolls point out, I’m underperforming the indexes this year. That’s because I’m overweighted in oil stocks. When oil recovers, and it will, I’ll outperform the indexes. Unless your portfolio mirrors the indexes, it will be above the indexes in some years and under the indexes in other years. Judging investment results by singling out one year’s performance is another sign that you’re talking to an ignorant rube.
I’ve said in the past that it’s easy to make 8% a year in the stock market. I singled out that number because it’s the benchmark that many pension finds rely on for the investment-returns component of their actuarial calculations. There’s a reason why the professionals who manage these huge funds use that number — because it’s doable. Even though my oil stocks have gotten the crap beaten out of them, my portfolio will still make 10% this year. And that’s my fucking point.
@139 Only if you believe in hiring a developer to perform surgery. I mean, what the fuck does he know about housing and urban development?
This is how you deal with the libtard msm when they bloviate like QPPS does here! https://youtu.be/hs1LABi5eCA
Mt Vernon officer shot tonight. Will libtards cheer the shooter like they have earlier!
Here’s a question for you idiot trolls. Even you should be able to get this right. What is the #1 responsibility of the Department of Energy? In other words, what is Drumpf proposing to put Rick Perry in charge of?
https://youtu.be/nNe9o6hGKEw
Will the HA DUMMOCRETIN scummy hoard accept this from the Obummer sadministration?
@143 “Mt Vernon officer shot tonight. Will libtards cheer the shooter like they have earlier!”
Is Cliven Bundy out of jail? I’m guessing this was done by one of yours.

A lot of people are saying, ‘I’m not putting another fucking dime in until someone tells me what just happened.’” Uhhh Ohhh!
Does anyone click on the babbling jackass’ fake news spam links?
People should regard those jackass links the same way they feel about stepping in a puddle of cat shit.
@148 Are you referring to the market timer who sold all his stocks about a year ago and stashed the money in a bank account?
140
I’m a billionaire and I’m a “fucking hayseed” as an investor? What fucking parallel universe are you inhabiting , Roger?
@ 140
I don’t care whether the Dow or S&P beats my portfolio.
No, apparently you don’t.
“Also, maybe my least favorite thing in Seattle is when it rains hard and too many people share too few bus shelters.”
Solution:
Step 1: Leave Mosco…err…Seattle.
Step 2: Grow up and buy a fucking car, you fragile hipster.
Greeting my most excellent neo-socialist friends!
124 – Roger, I see you finally took the time to learn how to use Excel’s XIRR function. Roger, dear readers, didn’t know what his portfolio’s performance was until I described in this blog, several years ago, how to use the XIRR function. Now, of course, he thinks he’s a genius.
========================
140 – “My dear loyal HA readers, ” – Roger, go look in the mirror. You’re only “loyal reader” is yourself because everyone knows you’re a self-promoting political hack who spent his entire life in government employment because you couldn’t find anything else.
========================
BTW, Rog, how many C-130s does it take to move 369,000 pounds of cash from the East Coast to Baghdad?
It’s trick question because the US Air force would not use a C-130 to move such an amount. A C-130 can only carry 25,000 pounds at a time, and it’s a slow aircraft compared to the C-5 or C17 heavy lifters. Roger read an article in some rag about the last Bush administration moving 369,000 pounds of cash to Iraq and actually believed the article when it stated a C-130 did the job. It would be tantamount tom using a small wheel barrow to move a million tons of earth from Washington to Florida. It defies belief, but Roger bought into it all the same.
124
Did you factor that into you all-star level returns of 8% this year?
You are such a phoney…..just shit the fuck up already you clown.
@11 Putin is not going to snap up much of anywhere at least not directly. Militarily he does not have the conventional force to do it. Europe even with its winnowing of defense money is able to kick Russia’s ass. Fortunately European’s really don’t care about poor Arabs until they show up at the borders. So either they look the other way as a civil war goes the way most wars go or they get sucked in. Libya did not go as planned and traditional colonialism is not in vogue.
@17 And Bigfoot exists right Washington and deserves protection as a special critter.
People are not asking the right questions. Why is it a national crises if the Democratic (Republican, Green. Libertarian) party gets hacked by anyone? We are not a one party system. The government does not set up or specify the security requirements for any entity outside of the US government, and it has its hands full with unsecure government systems. Meanwhile the NSA is so deep into Russia’s systems they know when Putin wipes his ass, and any hacking as it happens.
Carl are you suggesting they should be expanding bus shelters in Seattle and less gentrification?
@153 You are wrong about the carrying capacity of the C-130 it’s 45,000 pounds. It would be a poor choice as the capabilities of the aircraft would be wasted flying into a secure air base like Baghdag. You could use KC-135’s or just rent a or other commercial aircraft depending on the other mission parameters of that weight in cash. Just 1 delivery heck why not use naval transport unless you needed it moved in a hurry.
@64 Does seem the US Navy may at some point in the future weigh in on the matter. The self defense forces of Japan, the Korean, Pilipino, Vietnamese navies. At this time China ‘s navy is rather boxed in. Also they burn a lot of coal that would seem to go against the investments they are putting into those reefs as they will be flooded over with global warming.
Of course the Chinese are upset over Taiwan, but perhaps its time to acknowledge the reality of Taiwan being a sovereign nation since China is into that sovereignty thing. Also it’s all rather odd a carrier fleet from time to time shows up around Taiwan. Some kind of big stick. Now the Nationalists still exist and they would appreciate the communist party to recognize the error of their ways and return control to them. Meanwhile the real Taiwanese are thinking fucking Chinese are all a pain in the ass. They make the Japanese look almost civilized.
@75 You don’t like Dolly Parton? Even gay men like Dolly Parton.
She did a telethon for where she is from, and lives. Hurray!!!
If you don’t simmer down I got some Carter Family for you to listen too, and broaden your horizons. Or try some Dolly Parton “9 to 5” should brighten your day.
@79 Seems like there were a bunch of European leaders making statements for Hilliary Clinton none of their intelligence services would have been involved in the US election. Yhen again hmmm, how is the great game played?
@82 Isn’t that what the North Vietnamese say about us ugly Americans?
@91 You mean like a physicist like Dr Einstein?
@97 That guy following the elephants is doing a great and necessary job, and if Aunt Effie has a clue she will make a deal with the guy and get some of that fine truly powerful fertilizer for her tomatoes plants. And it keeps the streets clean and hopefully you will not step into some poop. All unnecessary if the elephant is out on the Serengeti. PS a guy also follows the donkeys in the parade even if Jesus is ridding it.
@102 Of course it was a democratic President who had to go along with the Republican (bi partisan) repeal of Glass Stegall. One President Clinton.
Peace hmmm. Libya.
Prosperity hmmm not like Happy Days are here again.
@105 What you are saying the Trump plan is to follow the yellow brick road to the Emerald city! Wow now I gotta brush up on Oz.
@121 They may agree to that as long as the Democrat surveillance program as those Democrats are dangerous jackasses.
@122 @123 @124 All I know is people lie about sex, only they lie about money and wealth even more.
@128 Might be fun to be a pirate or work on the railroad.
Maybe build a tower high out of rock mortar and lime.
Bobby wants to be a fireman, Alice a nurse and Vicki a teacher all much more fun and important to main street than being a Capitalist.
@133 Not sure you really answered his question after all we could just be an oligarchy run by Capitalist rabbits or rich business guys and gals.

@138 These the same intelligence officials who believed there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq? Of course everyone believed they were there, and in fact some left over weapons of mass destruction have been found buried in the desert by ISIS and others, but these are leftovers from the Iran-Iraq war. More than a few intelligence officials and others feel a little sheepish over that one.
@144 I don’t know that Energy Department is a bit of political misdirection in naming. Kinda like why Colt Single Action is called a Peacemaker.
