An initial reaction to the compromise: are you kidding me?

February 6, 2009 By fieldscornerguy 28 Comments

So it sounds like there's a compromise stimulus bill.  And the Republicans, with the full cooperation of centrist Democrats and praise from Harry Reid, have stripped billions from it. What have they cut, you ask?  Perhaps some … [Read more...]

But thanks for the lawn tour of WR’s rich white progressives who demean & disparage their middle & working class neighbors for sport. Like Tonya T, who split $7.5 MILLION w/her ex in divorce & also gets $14k/MONTH alimony. Public record. No Fair Share 🪧 for her! #bospoli #mapoli

Jessamyn Jones @jessamynejones

No integrity in anything you do, Rachel. You are a hypocrite & liar. You testified at SchoolCommittee that your grandchild would be impacted by exam school policy. Now she goes to $59k private school, as did your own kids. Rich white progressives have no skin in the game #bospoli https://twitter.com/RachelPoliner/status/1558948721261518851
