Bet I made near 80 calls yesterday, the first was to the company who insures the car to inform them that Wells Fargo, the bank who foreclosed on me early last year, has repossessed the car I’ve made $7,000 in payments on. Then was the call to the sithy Medusa, got lucky I gu... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/101 Sat, 26 Feb 2011 11:54:52 delete some more. ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/100 Fri, 25 Feb 2011 04:38:29 It's illegal search and seizure performed on an adult and my repulsed reaction to the tentative body language on the two boys suggests I employ the terminology of abuse.

Such considerations were already not what might b... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/99 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 19:27:20 "The tax cut bill" is the title, just under five minutes. Hope it's a good companion!

So ironic that these pilferers see themselves as on the winning side, when I was raised to believe that it's those that lie, cheat and steal who are losers, no matter how donned they are with baubles.

My point is that even if we can see we're not where we thought or are supposed to be, that we know getting there is possible, the question becomes one of how. The why of it hasn't been as evident as it is now ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/97 Sat, 19 Feb 2011 00:58:31 "We the People of the United States of America, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constit... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/96 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 00:47:18 Had you any plans to show the people some love?

See, I saw that big sloppy wet kiss for the same corporations who slice, dice and splice this public, so I know you know how.

I have a few gifts in mind.

My personal preference would be for an EQUAL application and enforcement of the rule o... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/95 Mon, 14 Feb 2011 20:41:37 I got to 'had enough' after the elections of 2004.

As a DUer, caught a 30 minute political video, all in all I think most who frequent this part of the boards are already informed about, I link because of the faces put on the 'bad guys'.

Someone here once asked what to call this economic chapter of the country's story. From the choices of recession and depression, I deemed repression as more apt an expression than either of the two familiar terms. The ori... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/87 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 15:11:17 If you're gonna quote me, I'd ask that you avoid such creative liberties in what I expressed.

Secondly, what I was trying to have a little fun with Mr. Maverick, was the dollar sign that appears rather than the percentage sign I thought you'd intended to use, unless you meant to imply that liberals make up 20 dollars of the population and that people are now counted as fra... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/83 Sat, 31 Jul 2010 16:11:22 Two points here, I tend to think that liberals comprise more than 20$ of the population, but since I'm certain it's an innocent mistake, I'll move on to the other point, and that's the word liberal. It, like every other term we throw on things depends upon the user and whatever connotation is desire... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/82 Fri, 30 Jul 2010 22:10:53 I stand as a proponent of what is democratic, defined in my Webster's as political or social equality, but it is the third definition of four. Definitions one and three refer to democracy, in terms of it being democratic to uphold and advocate democracy. The last definition is where support for a po... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/jotsy/81 Fri, 30 Jul 2010 15:17:36 As political drama unfolds on all fronts, heated debate ensnares the worst of our senses when we engage in discussions of what it is to be a true American.

By my count it's a handful, likely under 1% if you take into consideration the number of bodies in both halls. Getting the job done means elected officials actually work at what we elect them to do.
