    Yes and by definition, torture would have won Bush's wars. And by definition, a little country like Vietnam can't beat a big one like the U.S. And by definition, trickle-down economics trickles wealth down.

    You're in a dictionary mood today.

    When confronted with your mistake, you change the subject.

    Trickle down government for the past 6 years is the source of rioting in the streets. It's failed.

    The truth hurts, doesn't it?

    Every article and chart I've seen for years says that median income froze beginning under Reagan.

    But again, you found the one article/chart that disproves all others! Congratulations again! This is why we pay you the big bucks.

    Ironically, that recession in 1991 was on the guy who coined the phrase "voodoo economics."

    uh, the people that are already there want to work. Workers might not move there but business may relocate that sweat shop on the other side of the river.

    Denny says there is hardly any unemployment in Kansas, so there isn't much to be gained there.

    No, what I said is the constitution grants everyone a right to privacy except you.

    Attorney General Derek Schmidt, a Republican, issued an opinion recently saying that the state's open records law does not cover private emails from public officials, but he recommended that lawmakers fix that loophole.

    http://www.politico.com/story/2015/03/state-department-email-rule-hillary-clinton-115804.html

    Clinton private email violated 'clear-cut' State Dept. rules
    The policy warns against routine use of personal email accounts


    (but yeah, it's exactly the same)

    Why business is leaving California for Texas

    Part of the appeal of the Lone Star state, in addition to lower taxes, says Puzder, is that “you don’t have the very burdensome wage and hour laws that you have in California.” Even permitting procedures become a factor in growth prospects for certain states.

    Puzder gave the example that, “in Texas it takes 60-63 days to get permits. In Los Angeles it takes 280 days and in San Francisco we’re not sure how many days it takes because it has been so long since anyone could open a restaurant there.” These factors are crucial for new businesses because the property sits idle until permitting allows construction to begin, creating losses for every day there’s a delay, according to Puzder.

    Puzder's company has announced plans to open hundreds of new restaurants in Texas, thanks in large part to the state's speedy permitting process. “Our intent is to built 300 (stores) in Texas in this decade, whereas in California we’ll build very few restaurants."

    Sorry, but the source is full of drivel on a daily basis. It's agenda driven and anything in it is cherry picked to confirm their bias.

    At least donkiez cited a liberal source that quoted a republican.
