They are there, nothing there that even remotely deserved that ridiculous comment.

I’ll take your word. Then let the backlash for her actions continue.

When you can not compete in the arena of ideas and your feelings get hurt, name calling is how you win.

If you have a different perspective, please offer it. I haven't seen any data suggesting that Obama didnt help job growt. And I'm not bashing Trump, but his claim is inaccurate. Hes improving the trend, but it was already there he started.


You didn't need to look any further that the same BLS. Here's their data on the country's job participation rats. Notice how it plummeted during the Obama administration...and reached a point in Sept. 2015 that was the country's lowest in 40 years. LINK

Problem is, you aren't really winning when you do that. It's more like whining. Some people need to be able to handle criticism better. You sure don't throw out "racist piece of shite" to do that.

Nope and from the mayor's comments last night, she won't have anything done to her. He said it was speculation

She is trying to say someone made a fake account and posted that. Give me a damn break!!

WTF? Bizarre.


Frankly, you would just have to have known Greg Aymond for any of this to make sense.

People throw out "1 in a million", but Aymond truly was this little bizarre, fat gnome who was simultaneously deeply ignorant and extremely brilliant AF.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the mayor (Hall) is banging the underling (Jennings).

Any backstory on this.

it's in the link

quote:

Jennings spearheaded the launch of the rebranded festival. Almost immediately, the seemingly capricious decision to change the festival’s name was met with widespread ridicule. The city and its sponsors had already spent a significant amount of money marketing and promoting the Alex River Fête brand, tying it in with its other award-winning festival, Alex Winter Fête.

Among other things, River Fête had a customized smart phone app and a line of merchandise, and organizers maintained an active and engaging presence on social media. After the name change was announced, the Facebook page calling itself the “Alex River Fête Memorial Page” attracted nearly 400 likes. Until recently, that was an audience three times as large as the page for the actual event, which had remained dormant for nearly three months and had only been updated with information on the musical line-up and itinerary two and a half weeks ago.

In previous years, the event attracted thousands of visitors, dozens of vendors, and a string of nationally-acclaimed and diverse musical acts. There had been no calls for the event to be rebranded, and during last year’s campaign for mayor, all three candidates had expressed support and praise for the festival.

As I said before. Nothing more than blind loyalty to a skin tone. Not what's best for everyone...

So now it's "their turn"?? "Y'all have been screwing up since your existence"??

How comically pathetic.
