Thanks!  How did Tommy hear about this flight?

I think Dr. Sky (Steve Kates) had some inside knowledge of it and hooked up Tommy.

Ryan just pulled the Bill

Coincidentally  pulling out was the only method of birth control  for coverage in the Trumpcare bill

That's not why.  In the end, with the Fake News Media in a frenzy, with the only people called to testify before committees being those who favor more handouts, with the only people out marching being those in favor of bigger government, with endless overblown reports of people who would fall through the cracks if cuts were implemented, they lose their nerve and at best vote to cut the increase in the growth rather than make actual real dollar cuts. 

It's the swing voters who decide the outcome of some elections.  They are the ones most susceptible to being swayed by these tactics, and who then are found to be opposed to cuts.  The Ds are always against cuts, enough RINO Republicans won't vote for them either, and enough of the conservative legislators end up doing what they think is prudent in holding onto their seats instead of voting for their principles.

That's what the idea behind the whole term limits thing was - to send the signal they may as well make cuts because they won't be allowed to keep their seats even if they please these people and get their votes.

No fake news, just reality. Local, State, and federal I noticed just as much of a bloated budget if a liberal is in, as is a conservative. They just spend money on different things. It's the great George Carlin quote "Have you noticed that your stuff is sh*t, but my sh*t is stuff"

Conservatives have their hang ups they think are important and price isn't important and liberals have their stuff they think is important. Right-wingers love pushing "Tough on Crime" bills that put petty criminals in jail which balloon the budget on enforcement, courts and filling jails.  Just look at federally now, very tough on every department but has no trouble taking any savings and throwing it all in the military without a second thought. Hell majority of Trump supports can't even simply bring themselves to say "Hey you don't have to Florida every freakin weekend" but most can't do it because it's their guy.

Tommy mentioned it. Jorge asked if he had wear any special clothing, Tom said he wore sweat pants as it's most comfortable for flights (I would assume it's most comfortable for any circumstance lol)

Florida began drug testing for welfare recipients. The law required the recipient to pay for the test, but repaid the fee if the recipient passed. If her or she or one of the other 5000 genders failed the test, benefits would be cut off. Florida spent more money paying for the passed tests than it saved in cut-off benefits. You don't always get what you suspect.

Actually, that's  TOTALLY  what I expected. If you are just looking at dollars, the amount of money to test everybody will have to be more than the people you kicked off the system.

It's something  that sounds great on a rant, but just real bad policy  when you crunch the numbers. BTW stuff like this is why republican  governments  sound like they are cutting  the budget  but in the end of the day  they hardly  ever do.

Classic Jorge

Caller say Sports Authority has closed down

Jorge "corrects" him by say "There's still some stores left"

*Caller was correct. They did close down all stores and the few remaining merged with Dick's Sporting Goods.

Jeeesh Jorge  GNS

Thanks

They talked about Pay Less Shoes going under. Bought shoes there a couple of times, both times useless after a couple of months. Shoes is now something I will always pay a little more for quality.

I missed the first fifteen minutes. Did the guest bail? He's just talking to Tommy about riding in airplanes.

You seem to be right. Peter Ward  wa s scheduled and isn't  on. Seemed to be replaced by some Mitch guy talking economics

I think the guest is still there but Jorge really want to talk about this plane thing.

Tommy wearing his swear pants best is soooo expected

Jorge is really an awful interviewer. He got stuck on that stupid door issue.

I don't feel like listening to another political show on the "we don't do politics" program. I might come back during shadow people segment if I haven't fallen a sleep.

Jorge loves talking politics but seem to forgot to mention his hero iand sources are confirmed liars over wiretaps. But he got important stuff like how many black people Connie saw at a Trump rally.

Why am I not surprised the very famous and rich Chuck Berry gets stuff for free at Jorgs's store. But I am sure every struggling college kid will have to pay full price.

But isn't that exactly precisely what happened, and why she got ridiculed for it?

Because these people ARE in the bag for the Ds, and they don't put out balanced journalism - ever.  They've been going on for months about these tax returns - how they are going to show Trump is a puppet for Putin, how he cheats and doesn't pay taxes, how he isn't really as wealthy and successful as he claims, on and on.  Based on nothing, except, apparently, what you think of as balanced journalism

Rachel Muddow rubs her hands with glee, thinks she has some sort great gotcha moment, and it turns out to be nothing at all like what these biased shitheels have been going on about for months.  Even then they try to spin it like his tax rate is ''too low'', even though it's higher than what their own companies paid (heaven forbid Mudcow release her own TRs)

And then you come up with a post like that, about the poor, put upon media, who can do no right when they're just trying to get the facts.  Please.

Considering he's the only Presidential candidate since Nixon to not give out his returns, of course you have your suspicions up. Then the bizarre defense of everything Russia, people wonder what's the connection. If he puts out his tax returns and nothing is there, great, nothing is there. But is he as charitable as he claims, is he as rich as he claims. There's one way to know, and it's not some guy bragging about it with continues words of "trust me"

Did she really rub her hands like a cartoon villain or was the your perspective of it. I listed the two tweets hyping the show, it didn't seem like she bragging about a huge "gotcha moment" and read more like I got this information and I will pass it forward on my show. You're right, I think it was a "nothing burger" but still rather have that piece of information than shelving the story.

Maybe I am jaded being on bellgab and seeing every video being posted as "HUGE NEWS, SOMEBODY IS GOING TO JAIL FOR SURE FOR THIS!!!!!" jeeze you want to talk about exaggeration look at the titles of some of the videos posted talking about Maddow "Epic Fail, Career Suicide,  scoop’ fails miserably, A MESSAGE SHE WILL NEVER FORGET!" Now THAT' some click bait exaggeration

Horseshit!  She overreached and fell on her ass.  Your pathetic excuse making is almost as laughable.

What excuse am I making for her? I like real information on politicians (ie tax returns) I would rather it be from the last 10 years, and a bit more in depth from just the "top line" but considering we haven't gotten anything from Trump (like what we have gotten from other Presidential candidates) at least it's something.

As for overreaching, looking at her twitter and she made two tweets yesterday about it
- BREAKING: We've got Trump tax returns. Tonight, 9pm ET. MSNBC. (Seriously).
-What we've got is from 2005... the President's 1040 form... details to come tonight 9PM ET, MSNBC

There's not exclamation marks or ALL CAPS (excluding breaking) or nothing, unlike what you get on every Trump tweet. There no talk of YUGE or earth shattering or anything like that. She pretty much just said she got the 2005 Trump1040 form.

Internet destroys Rachel Maddow after Trump tax return ‘scoop’ fails miserably

http://www.theblaze.com/news/2017/03/15/internet-destroys-rachel-maddow-after-trump-tax-return-scoop-fails-miserably/

This reaction drives me crazy, and it really shows how f*cked up we are in news gathering. Maddow got a scoop of Trump Tax of 05, and she put it out there and from all accounts it seemed pretty accurate (and not so bad against Trump) and people then mock her for doing so. Isn't that what we want, citizens to have information out there, good or bad?

You guys are so used to just reading right-wing rags that you only get negative news from the last 8-years, even when unemployment goes down and turn around the recession, then just call it fake numbers and report only negative stories (or just make them up). Because heaven forbid given any balance in reporting will let you be labeled as "In the bag for the Dems"

So what the alternative you want her to do, you want her to shelf the story because it wasn't juicy enough?  I am interested in Trump tax returns, no matter what they are, personally I would like more in-depth into the report instead of just toe "top line" numbers but it's better then what we had, and hopefully we can get more (hell we should have had  more recent ones already)

Now if she hyped the story as "earth shattering" than the hype can be criticized, but the actual story I think it was fair.

Or until a Democrat goes into office and than miraculously the "real numbers" will be brought up again.

I haven't  done an all nighter like this in a long time. Board was jumping, It was fun. Have a good day everyone.

Was that the third or fourth religious  caller ?

I LOVE this caller. Hey your theory is crazy, now here's my crazy theory 

Wow calling an Elisabeth  Lizzy is a sign of being a reptilian . I literally  call the Elizabeth  I know Lizzy all the time.

Does this mean our every Lily is actually  a living flower. Very Little Shop of Horrors, but probably  more like the talking flowers in Alice in Wonderland

Flesh eating, blood sucking, fanged, clawed ... and they fly!

They also eat the skins. My health-nut friends  are going be lecturing them if they continue  eating the skins that they will be too fat to use their wings

Somebody once send me video proof if reptilians. It was pretty much slow motion video of people licking their lips.

One persons fetish video is another persons reptilian  proof.

Paulides' Missing 411 people eaten by reptilian morlocks! This is lovely!

I am intrigued. Paulides has always been vague on his conclusion. Kasten is going to cut right in and make his own. That's an alpha male for you. 

This guest would be Jorge worst nightmare, he's asking the host questions. In just a half hour he asked "Have you read this book" and "Do you know what that is"

That would totally throw Jorge off from his book coloring concentration.

 Just noticed most of my clocks skipped an hour. Happy missing time day! Hope the probing was left to a minimum

Annie's already been on hold an hour, she's not giving up so easy.

Haha. I am waiting  for the partisan political spin caller for the reptilian  topic

BTW To a surprise  to nobody, C2C had no upates tonight  about the show, tech problems & return, the haven't  tweeted since Thursday  afternoon. But don't  worry on they still tweet about important  things, like on Wednesday   how many members  Paranormal  Date has.

He's back. Its spring ahead day. I wonder if we will get full four hours or the missing half hour will be lost. Sounds like he's starting from the beginning

He just tweeted "Tech problem. Working on it. Hope to be back on air in a few minutes "

I like your reptilian  apocalypse  theory  better.
