Or maybe a debt ceiling resolution isn’t the correct forum to make budget decisions? Congressional “conservatives” can propose cutting the budget when congress...sets the budget.

I suppose technically you CAN get $59 fares, but you won’t. At least not if you’re flying out of Chicago.

Well I’m convinced. I’m not voting for Obama for president ever again.

Makes perfect sense.

So, since I seem to have hit a Jersey nerve: my main experiences with New Jersey are Chris Christie, Jersey Shore, and the fact that my coworkers who live in Bedminster basically leave for most of the summer due to the heat and humidity, and never shut up about it.

1. Hard pass. I value health and education too much
2. Possible
3. Possible
4. I’m not living on one of the hurricane buffer islands for Louisiana

6. Jersey, no for the politics and the weather
7. Florida, no
8. Possible

Paying people not to work. Once again the bootstrappy American farmer experiences “socialism for me, but not for thee.”

I like beans, from pork and beans to baked beans, but especially:

Screw the milk lobby.  I’m still waiting for my Baywatch girl like I was promised.

Because the thought of a poor person getting a dollar they might not be entitled to (debatable) is *way worse* than a rich person keeping $100,000 they should have owed.

“Stick to cars and stay out of politics” posts incoming.

Right after he begins sharing ad revenue with subscribers, like he promised months ago.

Tucker will forego the ~25 million Fox was willing to pay him so he can break his non-compete clause.  

A paint job, some trim pieces and a suspension upgrades, a windshield that raked 2 degrees more.  Automatic transmission.  

I am IN NO WAY advocating for something like this, but watching that GIF, this is where my brain went.

The previous ones were also not built with the letter carrier in mind; too short (forcing them to stoop all the time), poor safety features (no air bags!), poorly laid out storage, no air conditioning, etc.etc.. It’s better that the vehicles perform well ergonomically, mechanically and environmentally than look nice.…

If the USPS spent even $1 extra per vehicle on something purely aesthetic, there would be throngs of people bitching about government excess and wasting taxpayer money*. I appreciate their focus on almost 100% utility and considerations for driver health and safety.
