Medicaid expansion

The Medicaid Expansion bill, which Missouri voters passed by 53.25% to 46.75%, is just the latest in a series of votes that the state legislators have decided to overturn. For example, they managed to continue their power by calling for a new revised vote which overturned the people's decision to have a demographer scientifically redraw district lines and do away with gerrymandering. In this case, they plan to blatantly refuse to fund the will of the people to expand Medicaid. This time is the time for the voters to sue.

The 'woke' crowd

This is for the "woke crowd." When a conservative Republican couple has a newborn it is "male or female" a "boy or a girl" gender specific. When a liberal Democrat couple has a new born it is "TBD," or "To be decided.". I am glad I am a conservative and a Republican and know my gender.

    Medicaid expansion: Looks like the State Legislature Republicans have learned from the Democrats to push their agendas with nonpartisan support/actions.

    The 'woke' crowd: Very true caller, that's what the science calls for either female or male....you know that science thing.

    And that's the way it should be according to Schaefer's World....Sunday May 2, 2021.

    Since birth certificates carry the gender, when do they hand them out? When you have decided?

    I suggest for those who don't already know, pause for a few seconds once you pull your head out of it and look around, maybe you can then figure it out.

    Rick, that went on for the past four years, the previous 8 and the 8 before that. I remember hearing it as a much younger person when Truman was sitting in the oval office. The only thing that I see changed is it can be done at Warp Speed now with the advent of modern technology.

    Rick, I might add, the Democrats spent 4 years hounding Trump, down to a level of two politically inspired impeachments and Two politically motivated Acquittals, all at great expense of time and treasure to the taxpayers of this country.

    Then a man is elevated to nomination because he could win, according to Lettau, and capability be damed in my opinion. So it starts all over again. We don't need a man in the most powerful position in the world simply because he has likeability and irregardless of the fact he cannot find his backside with his hands in his hip pockets.

    Wheels: Don't forget VP Harris was only picked because she was a black women....BTW, she came in last place when she was a presidential candidate. However Harris did come in first place as an understudy for Mayor Willie Brown.

  • "...capability be damed in [your] opinion."

    And that's all it is, your opinion, which you're welcome to hold.

    You keep forgetting that he beat Trump with higher margins than Trump received 4 years earlier.

    And Biden's done more for the American people in a 100 days than Trump did in 4 years. That demonstrates capability.

  • He must have. Maybe that's what got Trump fired.

    That would be your opinion, what are his accomplishments, screwing up the Southern Border, handing out taxpayer money, sending the national debt skyrocketing. You call those accomplishments?

    I have been retired for over 20 years and still paying a lot in taxes. I objected to handing out money when Trump was President and I object now. We cannot borrow our way out of debt and printing more money creates inflation and robs those of us who saved our money so we would not be dependents of the government.

    When you start passing bills like that you are courting that Totalitarian Rule thing that comes with the next step in the progression with Socialism.

    Now I look to someone here getting his shorts in a bind over that observation.

    I cannot stand heights and I get cold chills just watching someone stand that close to the edge.

    But love the Grand Canyon otherwise.

    We walked down the "mule trail" at the Canyon a couple of times in the past and I kept telling girlfriend - remember every step going down is twice as hard coming back up so we only went 1/2 mile before turning around - heck of a view.
