And yet Nancy Pelosi stood by her decision to cut water off to farmlands in California as the drought was beginning. Over a minnow.

Are you playing dumb, or did you really not understand ???

Then why do you keep yammering about your frozen beach? Mad you didn't get to go take a dip? Yes I know according to you EVERYTHING but Obama and his clown crew in DC were the problem. Carry on.

Minnows more important then food. So go the enviro's. I should order a bunch to fish with.

No, a first quarter contraction of 2.9% virtually guarantees it.

Yeah..it was iced for how long ? 1 or 2 days maybe if at all.

Port of Houston didn't show any major import/export TEU drop.

The beach is to show the extent of what happened, that an entire state was frozen from the state line in the north to its lowest tip on the Gulf of Mexico. Something that has not happened in that states existence(well since records were kept).

im so glad that you werent playing stupid though. I would rather you just not be understanding me than you had been playing dumb.

Again, do you actually know what you are talking about or are you just so right wing that you are against anything with a D next to it ?

9 million fewer in the workforce despite increasing population, labor force participation at historically low levels. Higher average unemployment - record numbers on disability.

There's just no good way to shine the turd that is Obama's economic record, most recently demonstrated by a 2.9% first quarter contraction - the biggest non-recession contraction in over 40 years.
