Ok, I just saw this happen again in front of my eyes at the local supermarket on the UES. 50-ish white woman wearing Louis Vitton Bag, designer sunglasses, nice clothing and makeup in front of me has $150 worth of groceries she's paying for- good stuff name brands, not cheap america's choice stuff. She whips out a FOOD STAMP card and pays for most of it and then whips out one of her many credit cards to pay the difference of what the food stamp doesn't cover. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE? Am I the last person in this city to not be on food stamps??!!? This woman lives on the UES and even if she lives in a studio walk up in yorkville, it's still at least $1,200 a month. How can she afford to live around here and still collect food stamps?
cc.. Where are all your insults now?.. Very silent.
el presidente, Read the thread before you insult someone. I expect insults from the petty little guy, but you are a step above that.
The_President ..You hate libertarians because you can't understand the concept.. You can't even follow a thread.
ms. lg, i try not to have much in the way of "frieds." not good for the arteries.
in terms of friends, if they wish to go to sleep before midnight i have no complaints.
btw, your wit really shined after we left the playing field. "you hate libertarians because you can't understand the concept." just keep telling yourself that. if only people were smarter they'd realize how wonderful your utopian ism is.
Hey ubottom...... Where is Yale? columbiacounty thinks you are a fool.
cc No comments.. Why so silent?
aboutready.... Can you please inform ubottom the location of Yale. CC can't believe that it is possible not to know. CC spews all his hatred and tomfoolery at people for misstating facts. I feel sympathetic for ubottom's predicament. ubottom probably knows where Yale is, but just inadvertently put down Hartford.(And ubottom was at yale just last week). Columbiacounty just doesn't have compassion for his comrades on street easy. aboutready, as the ring leader of the entitlement camp, please inform them the location of Yale, so we can put an end to all this childish behavior.
PS.... Did you really go to Yale?
ms. lg, i strongly suspect that you did NOT know the location of yale, but as that is just supposition i'll let it pass.
as to your sad and childish attempt to be clever and/or witty, well, it's sad and childish. if you had any understanding of what warren buffett calls the ovarian lottery you'd understand that you personify self-entitlement.
yes i went to yale. you still haven't answered the poli-sci question. but don't bother. ciao.

"i'm still waiting for the name of that community college." I rather be governed by the first 2000 names in the Hartford phone book than the faculty at Yale. (paraphrasing WFB)
so youre a teabagger....it happens
wfb? should i know this? wells fargo bank?
sometimes it's good to get the source rather than paraphrasing, promotes accuracy. btw, where is the source? she wouldn't have just made that up, maybe?
I rather be governed by the first 2000 names in any city than the faculty at Yale. I was using your favorite city Hartford. aboutready, I was at Frank Pepe last Month... You should know that place since you went to Yale.
maybe william f buckley. no wonder it didn't come easily. i try not to think of him.
ubottom By the way, Where is yale?
yale is a liberal commune in the land of the book-learned, a place us libertarians cant stand---too many experts on how i want to think and run my own damned life
i think you had your fill of all this super-intellectual crap at commune-ity college
ubottom... It's very amusing. The "elitist progressives" are disparaging community colleges.. Isn't that where many of your beloved "poor" get educated. Such hypocricy.
actually, julialg, i was poor and i was educated at yale. and now i'm not poor. how awful, no? must drive you crazy to think that someone could receive assistance and jump many quintiles in income level.
you're the one who attempted to draw a connection between yale and a presumed level of intelligence (which you felt i was falling short of).
good to see you're consistent. you fail at poli-sci, history, economics AND logic.
oh, and do you mean pepe's? i have never in my life heard it referred to as frank pepe. reading zagats?
http://www.pepespizzeria.com/ Really good. I enjoyed it. Thanks
yes, it is "pepe's" pizza. nobody calls it frank pepe. i prefer sally's.
ahhh, have you really been there? even the sign outside says "Frank Pepe's Pizza" - yes everyone calls it's Pepe's just like they call it Modern - not The Modern. But everyone also knows he founded the dang place.
cut to the friedman youtube. quick.
romary, yes indeedy i have been there. most of my friends disagreed with me on the sally's call, so it usually was pepe's.
although for calzones it was tony & lucille's.
romary... Are you a proxy for cc... get a life.
romary.. Are you a proxy for the little man? Get a life.
I have a life.. you get a life and a new gov't while you are at it..
"chinks"w67thstreet... Really? Stop the racism..
wait a minute just wait a minute there...aren't you the one about individual freedom? Shouldn't you be protecting my right to use derogatory terms to make my point? Or are ya just gonna brow-beat me into stopping institutionalized racism? Which is it julialg, or do you always talk out both sides of your mouth at once?
individual. We don't judge by race or sex or anything.. We judge each individual independently, not as part of a group.
I think you should be able to say whatever you want. So can I.
i can't seem to follow this at all. first, you tell him to stop...then you tell him its ok?
consistency, who needs it? clearly when you're an extreme libertarian you follow your whims without restraint. the lack of any need for logic is quite useful for the cause.
i think its fair to say that julialg is having a rough day.
a whole 1 min elapsed in between indignant responses. it's quittin time - fire up a vodka and chill. when someone on the board dares to question a post the talons come out.....
happy cocktails romary.
