A Cellar Honker

I’d be tempted to say “why the long face, Laura?”.

Billy Beane and the postseason. Moose out front should have told them.

Actually, voter enthusiasm for the Republicans has increased. But as Hugo has pointed out, whether that enthusiasm lasts to the midterms is another matter.

I think you’re right. I saw an article on NPR that said the Blue Wave has dissipated over the Kavanaugh hearings.

He has an exemplary record as a jurist, one completely at odds with the claims being made about him now.. That should carry more weight than uncorroborated stories. Hell, he may be the most sinister rapist since Ted Bundy for all I know. All I’m saying is prove it.

It’s hard to believe that an oil cartel represents a market of any sort.

Good post. The fact that a non-elected judicial nominee is so important means that we’ve strayed far from the concept of government of the people, by the people and for the people. Liberals and conservatives alike should be troubled by this.

Why would a professor of religious history be any more believable than a professor of mathematics or a professor of marketing? Our politics have become so corrupt that I don’t believe either side in a he said/she said scenario. I require proof. Anecdotal evidence is not proof. Conversely, I put zero credence in the former boyfriend’s letter too.

Forgot to add this - from Yahoo Finance: Amazon’s decision to raise workers’ minimum wage to $15 per hour was welcome news, even Sen. Bernie Sanders praised the move. But for some Amazon employees, the excitement didn’t last very long as they learned that existing financial incentives and bonus programs, including stock and monthly bonuses, that usually boost paychecks will be eliminated starting November 1. Several Amazon warehouse workers in the U.S., who spoke to Yahoo Finance on the condition of anonymity fearing reprisals, talked about how the change will negatively affect them. After the removal of these perks, some workers said they will be making less. Most of the workers who voiced concerns have been working for the company for more than two years, and have been earning close to $15 an hour before the raise. While these workers’ hourly rates will rise modestly, they said they could lose thousands of dollars that they would have collected from the stock and monthly-bonus programs. Amazon said those who are already making $15 an hour will see an increase in pay but did not specify how much.

This. He’s already eliminated bonuses to warehouse personnel in the wake of this, and some employees are complaining that they will make less money after the minimum wage hike.
