Tag: Immigration Reform

Hello. A programming note: Today was a decent show, but sadly, Saturday’s shows are kind of a waste of time for me since there is meaningless Congressional baseball talk(without the same caliber talk of reforming it or killing the filibuster) and hour long discussions about New jersey politics and Chris Christie I think are unwarranted. So therefore, I am going to be doing strictly a Sunday series on this now. That is when we talk about real shit like warrantless phone-tracking, warrantless surveillance, and the NSA as we did today.

It’s sadly not just me. In fairness, what I am interested in and what Steve is interested in are two different things. Chris Hayes shares my same interests and Steve does not. I like discussions about policy, and I’m just not getting enough of that. Besides, Sunday is enough to not abandon the #Uppers people who do appreciate what I tweet. I may or may not tweet on Saturday, but the tweets won’t be collected. So here we are on #Uppers.

Glad we are talking about real shit today. #Uppers

An easy way to let people know you stand for nothing is to make excuses for George W. Bush’s neocon programs because Obama uses them #Uppers

Good morning #Uppers. I think it’s important to recognize that the fake Constitutional scholar doesn’t understand the 4th amendment.

The New Deal coalition is what defines the Democratic platform and the Great Society on top of it later more than Andrew Jackson now #Uppers

Interesting bit of history on Andrew Jackson. He paid off all US debt=then there’s a bad recession+all Jacksonians thrown out office #Uppers

Thank you for reading.

Today’s show was about immigration reform, Oklahoma disaster relief, Apple tax shelters, Apple, Congress, tax law, and corporate taxes. #Uppers is now.

Richard Kim is right. We have less $ bec of the Obama created sequester. People excusing it are also 2 blame. $ Lies hurt us all.#Uppers

Wanna fight offsets? Don’t use “good offsets” argument. We need no offsets. We create $. Choice is what 2 do with it=wars or relief? #Uppers

@therealpriceman are you planning onmaking it a habit? #uppers

Jesse Helms was a despicable POS liar. #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

@therealpriceman all that being true, coincidence that he was consistently re-elected?

— James Overholt (@JamesOverholt) May 26, 2013

Imagine if (D)s spent their energy pressuring their Senators like the tea party did Orrin Hatch instead of making excuses 4 them? #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

@ebrew79 Reason there are so few=(D)s hate their base+their base has Stockholm syndrome=excuses all they do. Not all but most. #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

@therealpriceman Yeah, You’re probably right. The Clinton/Obama/Clinton triumverate is so appealing to them though.

“@therealpricemanto pass anything w <60 votes. Start a new war and attach. Sadly true. #Uppers“//& pick an existential enemy like #terror

Senator Tom Coburn says we need to pay for it. We’re already paying because he is a Senator. Haven’t we suffered enough? Hasn’t OK? #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

The uncomfortable moment where I praised Chris Christie. He was right though. #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

“@therealpriceman Jesse Helms was a despicable POS liar. #Uppers” What does it say about US that he was a respected statesman?

@therealpriceman And a lot more of them has been written into the new immigration bill, Bill Gates made sure of that one. #uppers

“Dude, finding the right slaves is expensive!” – Apple CEOs on Apple tax avoidance system. #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

It’s the effective tax rate that matters. It’s not 35%. Total BS. #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

Stock repurchasing and dividends to shareholders are what come from low corporate taxes, not jobs. #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

Tax Men – Apple shar.es/ZRKRH via @sharethis John Stewart nailed it. #Fawining #Senators #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

You can’t leave this up to consumers. They can’t afford to shop their principles in this economy. You need to change trade/tax law. #Uppers

— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 26, 2013

@merylnyc Those standards need 2be written into trade law=relates. Instead corps are allowed2sue any gov that does that in 3rd world #Uppers

Note: Due to a deluge of editorial cartoons over the past week or so, I’m going to, time permitting, post Part II of this weekly diary in the next few days.  In addition to some of the issues covered in this edition, I’ll include more cartoons on the floods in Pakistan, the withdrawal of combat U.S. forces in Iraq, and Rupert Murdoch’s $1 million contribution to the GOP.

Due to the unusually high number of editorial cartoons published over the past week or so (I literally have another 300+ cartoons saved), I’m going to try and post another edition of this diary by Friday, August 6th.  It something I’ve never done before.
