At one point or another, everyone has found themselves in the voting booth not knowing who all the candidates are on the primary ballot. What to do? Do not vote for that ballot line! Do not pick somebody based on a name! Do not pick somebody based on their ballot position! Resist the temptation to [...]

One of the more important issues facing Northampton County right now is making the assessment system fair and accurate. The County hasn’t reassessed in 18 years, but obviously much has changed about home values and especially land values in different neighborhoods during that time. Think of how different Forks Township and Lower Nazareth are today [...]

Gregg Bortz reports more good news is on the way for Allentown, as United Fiber and Data will be moving into a new 10-story office building downtown. It really is getting tough to keep track of all the different projects. Did I forget to even blog the story about Ruckus Brewing officially buying the Neuweiler Brewery building? [...]

The point of political blogging is not that you’ll directly reach so many voters that you’ll shape opinions about elections. The point is that for every couple dozen low-information voters, there’s a *political friend* who people ask who to vote for the week before an election. The point of blogging is to shape the opinions [...]

Seems to me the chart actually says something about Republicans standing by their principles.
You really need to do a better job of hiding the facts so they don't contradict the bull you shovel. It's like that other post that shows yet again how progressive the US Tax Code is.
Don't you just hate it when facts get in the way?

What-Am-I-Gettings-From-Big-Government is a committed Progressive Liberal Democrat…
…the answer to your question is – NO!
Truth is optional, continuous propaganda pounding away at the same message is everything.

You couldn't carry my jock, Carpetbagger.
You need to work on enforcing the No Fly Zone…
…another failed promise.
In case people haven't realized it yet, this graph only actually shows one thing, that Liberals don't have any principles.
Here's a graph I'd like to see. If you chart Geeting's idiocy on the Y-axis and his arrogance on the X-axis then the point (0,0) = you precisely.
Geeting — should Democrats shut the government down if USAID's funding is cut to the point where 60,000 kids globally will face imminent death?
The Banker must be one of the most pathetic middle-aged people of all time.
If by 'pathetic' you mean 'stands on principle, calls out hypocrisy and outright deceit' then yep, call me pathetic.
Nope, I mean pathetic by grasping on to failed Republican principles no matter how ridiculous you seem, and constantly berating a 27-year-old, while failing to make a coherent, structured argument for anything.
I'm not hanging on to anything. If you've read what I've posted many times, I hold both parties accountable when they need to be. I also admit it when I'm wrong.
These are skills we all need to develop.
I'd be happy to debate the facts on this blog. The plain fact is that Jon takes the position that if a Democrat is obstructionist, they're standing on principle. If a Republican is obstructionist, they're obstructionist. It's hypocrisy – neither party is any better or worse than the other, they are both awful.
I truly do hope Jon opens his bar soon and that he is a rousing success. He'll learn far more about what he's talking about when he has to deal with it in real life than he ever will in a policy seminar.
