Get ready to carry around a roll of quarters, chattle::

A $275 billion highway bill that was advanced by the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on Wednesday would make it easier for states to add tolls to U.S. highways.

The measure, known as the Developing a Reliable and Innovative Vision for the Economy (DRIVE) Act, calls for appropriating nearly $43 billion per year to the federal government's highway program and included a provision that would allow states to apply more easily to the Department of Transportation (DOT) for approval to install additional tolls on existing roads.

gay pride month reception at the White House Wednesday, scolding the
protester for being disrespectful in "my house."






When did Bath House Barry buy the place or is he still paying the mortgage on it? If a Republican "scolded" him/her/it, the Republican would have been a bigoted homophobe. I'll bet Barry has been really celebrating gay pride month (who gets to name these months) in private.

Ban one thing and it becomes easier to ban them all. There is no more limiting principle.

That leads to 'who decides what to ban,' and in every case - literally every single case - the answer is 'Liberals.'

Fuck. That.

I know we're not supposed to f-bomb, ace, but seriously. No. There is nothing you could say to convince me that 'this specific liberal' is better equipped to decide what I can or can not purchase, can or can not consume, et al.

As alex has so beautifully put it - if the US government can't tell me whether or not I can put a man's genitals in my mouth, they certainly can't tell me whether or not I can put a donut in it.

For antsy San Francisco BART riders, forced to hold it for nearly 14 years, relief may be on the way. The transit agency is looking at reopening the closed restrooms in its underground stations.

BART locked the loos at all of its stations after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, based on the suggestion of federal security officials.

Instead of simply unlocking the closed restrooms BART is considering converting them into unisex facilities.

.The last I read is he bought it with birthday money from his parents. He had to lie on the ATF form 4473 because he had been charged with a felony for drugs. I am not sure why that didn't show up on the NICS check though. Possibly there wasnt enough time for the charge to work it's way through the multiple data bases to get to the NICS guys.

Anyway, that's what I have read so far and I am sure everything I typed could possibly be wrong. But I don't think so. If this clown had legally acquired that gun the MSM would be touting it all over the news cycle 24/7.

207 According to official filings, US Secretary of State John Kerry holds a very large sum of shares in the American gas company Noble Energy Corp., one of two key partners in Israel's gas reserves. According to his declaration of assets, his shares were worth more than one million dollars at one point. A quick scan of Kerry's previous declarations of assets shows that he has held these shares for at least 10 years, and that the shares' value has fallen recently, possibly due to declining oil prices.



Last December Israel's Antitrust Commissioner David Gilo notified the government that he did not approve the Delek Corp. - Noble Energy duopoly over the Tamar and Leviathan gas fields. Around the same period a report was published that Kerry had called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and asked him to take care of the regulatory conflict.

Is it commonly assumed he was on suboxone? Suboxone is a heroin (and other narcotics) replacement drug, similar to methadone (but different in some important ways).


If he was dealing heroin, he was sampling product. And if he was on suboxone, he was in a "program," most likely court ordered, with the end result potentially being having all felony charges go away. They call this "drug court."


If all that is correct, he was not convicted of anything. It all would have been pending the outcome of his "treatment" program.

All the men were brutes, except the cowardly journalist. All the women were helpless victims. The violence was all gratuitous. And the hero was a violent drunk who couldn't get his courage up until he was drunk.

The evil sheriff brutalized the innocent black man to death. The cowboys mistreated the desperate sex workers. And all the men folk were cowards.

The hero was rehabilitated by the love of a saintly native american woman who died early.

I have mixed feelings. I have always been puzzled by the Confederate Flag's endurance considering what id did represent. I would have thought that by now it would have faded away quietly, and yet it persists.

But as a staunch supporter of the 1st Amendment, people have the right to own it and display it. I may not like it, I may think it dead wrong, but it is what it is. The same thing applies to the neo-Nazi's dressing up as Hitler and marching in Skokie.

Speaking of which, I notice that the ACLU is conspicuously absent from this debate. Yet when someone burns an American flag, they defend that to the death.

And it goes from them down to the commonfolk. Assessments on the lords, taxes on the people, inflation to meet the taxes, high prices, debased coinage.

337 As a former Civil War Reenactor for 15 years, I can only remember two times that the issue of Slavery came up during any events we went to. We were on the Southern side but we did have Yankee uniforms in case not enough of them showed but the issue of fighting for slavery only came up twice. It was never a big deal, and we politely pointed out that most Southerners did not own slaves and the fight was about States Rights, etc.

Most of the questions we answered were about uniforms and equipment and camp life. And the Regiment had a huge Stars and Bars out front of our camp every time. Nobody ever said a word about us being racist.

Exactly. The LIVs become aware of it as they start to ban things that affect themselves personally.

Posted by: Jean at June 25, 2015 08:24 AM (ztOda)


Suboxone works as a narcotic replacement because it helps fight off the cravings, but people do NOT get high from it, as they do with methadone. So it really has no street value.


I haven't been following closely, but I would be shocked to find he was somehow dealing suboxone on the street. I mean, I'm not an expert on this topic, but that's what I've always been led to believe regarding this particular drug.

454 Say what you will about the gay gestapo, they were right about one thing; its more powerful to appropriate symbols and language and reinvent/redefine them to the purpose of your cause than to ban them.

Not easier, but more powerful.

It's a shame that the black community has in large part appropriated the n-word but not redefined or reinvented it. They've almost made it worse, if anything.

It will be very interesting to see if the CBF doesn't evolve new meaning as a symbol of rebellion (not a stretch) as a reaction to this wildfire banning wave.

But he would have run afoul of another question on the 4473 "Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana, or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?"

You don't get into a methadone program without being addicted to a controlled substance. Doesn't matter if it was court-ordered or voluntary, in terms of the 4473, only the addiction is relevant.

Don't know exactly. But this is fevered, witch-hunt, racial-purity-law level insanity. Yes, there are legitimate arguments for removal.

This hypersensitive response is very antithetical to the concept of free speech. It's moved from raising the legitimate discussion of: "Should the State honor and revere Confederate symbols, because there's an undeniable connection to racism and slavery," to: "Let's ban all the things!!"

531 Suboxone works as a narcotic replacement because it helps fight off the cravings, but people do NOT get high from it, as they do with methadone. So it really has no street value.


I haven't been following closely, but I would be shocked to find he was somehow dealing suboxone on the street. I mean, I'm not an expert on this topic, but that's what I've always been led to believe regarding this particular drug.
Posted by: BurtTC


You are mistaken on all counts. It does get the user high and it does have street value. It is an expensive opioid agonist/antagonist mixed with naloxone so that it cannot be injected to get the addict high. It is addicting in itself with a half life shorter than methadone and is very successfully used to wean heroin addicts. We used to use it on the wards when we had a heroin addict come in with a medical problem that kept them in ICU or in a bed for days.
