Aside from the corruption and ever increasing spending, the issue with eliminating pork barrelling is that it's reinforced by people voting in those that they know will get the spending they want. That's the feedback mechanism. If you remove earmarking you still have to fight corruption and ever increasing spending, but you remove that reinforcement. The second step is to freeze discretionary spending (an Obama proposal I believe).
You can't legitimately claim to be acting against the process you are participating in and refusing to join in the measures to address.

That’s way too absolute.
If the spending didn’t exist the earmarking wouldn’t be an issue. But the spending does exist,once the budget is passed that money is essentially spent, and a congressperson’s responsibility at that point is to take care of hus/her district.
Until a transparent form of predetermined spending is developed I don’t see a solution to earmarking.

I met my wife in 9th grade. She sat by me in history class and I noticed she was wearing the nimrod Tshirt from the concert the night before and started givin her a hard time about being at that show when she shoulda been in the shelter seeing the skolars( mighta been less than jake or the suicide machines though im not 100 sure) . I called her a poser reached in my backpack and gave her my slapstick cd and was like try this. Weve been inseparable ever since.

Thanks Green Day

Honestly I reserve my judgment on just about everything I see online. People come up with clickbait bullshit or incomplete videos way too much. Just think of the hammer and timbalands bullshit.

Is the whole program pre-written? Does it auto update or do you send a report in that they then write the next phase for you? I’m wondering how RP does it. They just have an excel spreadsheet for the diet phases but there’s a lot fewer variables at play there.

I thought you'd never ask.

So, the program is 4 times per week, more or less upper lower (more like torso extremities) split. The two upper and lower workouts have a different emphasis. For example, one lower workout would be quad heavy (but still contain some posterior chain), whereas the other would be more for the posterior chain. The workouts have a base number of sets that you will do that are filled in for the entire 7 week block. After the first upper and lower workouts, you begin giving the workouts a grade which is an integer from -2 to 2. That grade is added to the base number of sets for the next week. So, if your second upper workout wasn't giving you a pump in your chest at all, you'd give it a 2, and then all your chest exercises in your 3rd upper workout would have an additional 2 sets each. If you were so super blasted from your first back workout that you couldn't even finish your back sets, then you'd give it a -2, and the volume would go down for the next upper workout's back sets by 2. This effect is cumulative.

It's an asinine position , even if you leave out the part that according to the authorities the road was closed and that he went around a barrier to get on the road , he still made the decision to not slow down and try to swerve around the vehicles , that's moronic , if there is an obstruction on a road , a normal person slows down .

Saying they had no one to blame but themselves is fecking stupid .

If they hadn't been standing in the road, would they have been hit?

Given the baseline of right wing posts in that thread and the odiousness of that poster in particular, I actually think that's a pretty tame shit post.

I mean, he didn't even call them cunts or make a comment about not sticking the landing. He's basically a liberal.

Roberts will not let it happen. He's not exposing a sitting president like that. The most he will do is take little shots at him or deny him things. imo.

If it was the beginning of the term or Trump was killing it in the polls I'd agree but I'm not so shore with Trump getting crushed and a Biden victory seeming more likely.

I'm going out on limb here.... you're right about Robert's but Kavanaugh flips.......
