As a white, christian, straight, male, let me tell you why you’re wrong and how this term is necessary to provide dignity to the Latinx population and let me help you become actually woke . . . After all, my brother in law is from El Salvador, and my ex-brother-in-law is from Mexico, so I would know best (although…

I do not think he will be a presidential candidate in 2020 - which is probably why he was chosen to give the response. Democrats likely didn’t want it to seen as just a presidential campaign commercial - which is why the people the author would have preferred were not chosen (or declined) - because they have…

You are absolutely correct - i guess it just felt like they were struggling - no more posting with just my gut! Middle relieve though wasn’t the best at times though.

I am actually really surprised with all the moves lately. I assumed they were expecting significant (likely) regressions this year, coupled with how stacked the cubs and cards are, and we’re just going to wait until 2019 to make their move. At least the Yelich deal didn’t mortgage the future or shorten their window…

The GOP going nuclear with Gorsuch was happening with or without Reid. He didn’t hold that vote open for a year just because Lne of the senate rules was changed. Plus, if Reid didn’t do that, just imagine how many more judges Trump wouldn’t be appointing now.

You may have teams of data, but do you have binders full of women?

They also had below average production a several positions too - cf, rf, 1b (second half of season) and starting pitching. So it might balance out. Back end of the bullpen was extremely strong though.

We also don’t know what the children were given during Craig’s lifetime. They may have received their inheritnce in lifetime gifts.

Don’t buy into the conservative talking points that SS is somehow insolvent or unsustainable - IT IS NOT! But telling that lie over and over again, and repeatedly telling one generation not to ever expect to receive SS makes it easier for republicans to eliminate the program. We’ve been conditioned to believe we won’t…

Just wait. Once the IRS starts receiving less money as a result of the tax cuts, those ‘taker’ red states are going to receive less federal assistance, and they won’t be able to balance their budget from federal subsidies. Those stayers will see the value of the salt deductions and the higher tax rates quickly. Or…

I hope so. Republicans need to be knee capped in wi.

I think the problem is that the carrot quickly becomes the stick. By way of example: Say your premiums are $100, the reward is 10 off if you have a gym membership (so a savings). That eventually turns into - your insurance is $100 only if you have a gym membership, and is 150 if you don’t. Happened at my old job -…

No likely. At the state level, the senate and assembly are strong GOP majorities. On the local level, finances are not the best in Milwaukee, largely due to funding restrictions walker put on the area and that net loss in tax revenue the city experiences, so most ballot items have been about raising fees or taxes…

Defending Wisconsin will be a tough battle. Baldwin rode the obama wave in 2012, and Wisconsin has sadly been turning red since then. A strong candidate challenging Scott walker would certainly help. But Baldwin winning isn’t a guarantee (we did elect walker 3 times and Ron Johnson twice).

538 had a recent article about this issue. While they expect the seat to stay democratic, Minnesota is not as blue as we like to think, and has been turning purple the last 10 years.

Doesn’t matter at this point. The Moore accuser who just came out today and said she added to the note in her yearbook sealed it for Moore. That’s the sliver of doubt republican Alabamans needed to justify supporting Moore.

“You know what the sad answer is? Wait until the Baby Boomer generation dies off. The average age of Fox News viewers is 68.”

Nothing is as bad as the outfits they have Iris wear - imagine someone at your job showing her outfit.

Sargento isn’t actually Wisconsin cheese. They are primarily a packager. They generally buy from california, do some processing in Wisconsin to get the Wisconsin label. But they are not actually a cheese manufacturer.

Pump out breaks there! The cheese is both fantastic and abundant - can’t say that in many other places. Very few have squeaky curds. And the cold isn’t that bad, it can be refreshing at times. Plus, nothing is more beautiful than waking the streets at night during a large snowfall, with no cars present.
