Eat the rich

OK, folks,
I don't often post in this fashion, but I can't remain silent any longer.
For those Federal workers who have been furloughed, and those who have been laid off, I have a suggestion. STOP PAYING YOUR CREDIT CARD BILLS. Go ahead, pay your mortgage bill. Pay pay your utility bills, Even pay your car payment, but don't even LOOK at your unsecured (credit card) bills. When the "Big Boys" start of get hit, things WILL change. They will go to the pResident, and say Hey, look, you're killing us".
We still have power over the billionaires, but only by our ability to band together. A hit to the pocketbook is all they understand.
They count on us littles, we common folk, to follow the rules, The rules that the billionaires don't feel the need to follow, much less live by.

The oligarchs want us to be obedient sheep, and take what they feed us as gospel, while they run roughshod over our needs as "just dust in the wind". Well I , for one, am tired of it. There is no need to monetize human decency. We littles can take care of ourselves, and let the greedy folk rot on the vine.
Join the protests, carry the signs, but most of all, "DON'T PAY THE UBER-WEALTHY FOR BEING ASSHOLES"

I'm not a lawyer,

But I really think the correct course of action after Trump loses the election would be to immediately revoke his bond. It can't be election interference if the election is over.
Just a thought...

I voted today!

I'm in Central Georgia, and my county is right next door to "Trump Country". In fact, many of my neighbors are Trumpers. At the early voting site, I told the very nice poll worker "May the best candidate win... No matter who SHE is".
That got a grin and a wink.

On CBS's failure to fact check the VP debate

I wonder... Should one of the candidates state that CBS is both staffed and led by rapists and pedophiles, would the moderators suddenly start fact checking?

Just an observation

Earlier today, CNN's main page mentioned Trump 9 times (2 were for one article), President Biden was mentioned 1 time, and Vice President Harris was mentioned 2 times.
On the main page.
Headlining articles and editorials.
'Nuff said.

Dan Rather

Dan Rather was forced out for MUCH less that the current media talking heads are doing. They are CLEARLY showing favoritism to the "Great Orange Buffoon" and his (and their) owners and handlers.
Call them out at every opportunity.

Tough Guy

So I guess my idea of a "tough guy" is out of date. I mean, we ALL know TFG is really tough, right? I guess the reason Chuck Norris no longer has a TV show is that he didn't get the memo that "tough guys" whine, piss and moan.

Chuck, you've gotta get it together. You could still be making bank if you'd just learn to whine "It's not FAIR" and stomp your foot.

No need to take someone down in a fair fight and send them to jail, just find a shady lawyer and sue them. No need to have the truth on your side, just convince a sympathetic media that "You've been wronged - AGAIN".
C'mon Chuck, take some notes (and please don't kick my ass...)

Orange bully's lack of class

On the subject of Biden's stutter, I would simply say that President Biden is "Buh buh buh BAD TO THE BONE"!

About GAJMac

Not sure what to say... I'm a fairly long-time lurker, and finally took the plunge. I'm kinda a "rebound liberal". That basically means I grew up pretty liberal, got brainwashed by conservative media and Reagan's "kind conservatism" (note the quotes) and then came to my senses after the 2000 election. As for now, my brother, who is a LIFELONG liberal, says I make Karl Marx sound like Hitler! :) To all of you DUer's who joined before me, thank you for your insight, wisdom, and for showing me that I and the love of my life for these 44-odd years, (here in mostly Red GA), are not alone. On the non-political end, I was a part-time musician for most of my life, playing in bars since I was 15. My hands gave out on me, and now I cramp too badly to play more than an hour or so. I'm nearing retirement age, but I'm too broke to retire so I like to say my retirement plan is "10 toes up". My wife and I live in Central Georgia and have done so pretty much our entire marriage. My wife is amazing, looks significantly younger than I, and has the patience of Job. I work in IT for the gub'mint, but only since 2018. Been full-time IT since 2001. Before that I had a number of different jobs most of which I try to forget.
