The morning was overcast, no sun in sight, and people were drawn to the sun of the flowers.

Yesterday, at Pope Farm Conservatory:

Hagar said...: The EPA "accidentally" releases a jillion gallons of a mine holding pond into the Animas River.

Well, breaching a dam is not like pulling the plug in your bathtub. You have to get men and heavy equipment and work at it, so this looks more like major stupidity and incompetence at work. There is hardly anything "accidental" about it.

And then to not notify the state authorities of Colorado and New Mexico of what you have done?
But hey "We are the EPA; we don't have to care.!"

And who authorized the EPA to acquire construction equipment and field crews anyway? Isn't it supposed to be just a supervisory agency?; 8/9/15, 11:16 AM

pm317 said...: I am very disturbed looking at this video of Sander's event and those women and in particular, the woman in the black t-shirt on the right assaulting the organizer. Does this really work and in what universe? But in another sense, the audience at that event were the same people screaming racist at Hillary supporters in 2008. So now that they were being called racists by these goons is rich in irony.; 8/9/15, 1:23 PM
Nichevo said...: Were there too many of these BMs to remove? I might has made exactly one attempt to engage them kindly in speech and when they didn't respond, as was obviously not in their programming, that's when you snap your fingers and the people you have for this purpose, come and remove them. Haven't all of these declared candidates now got Secret Service protection? But I suppose Bernie keeps them on a tight leash since he wouldn't want to be associated with that sort of thing.; 8/9/15, 1:56 PM
madAsHell said...: After the Westlake debacle, Bernie made scheduled appearances at a local dive bar, and the University.

“This income and wealth inequality is grotesque, it is immoral, it is unsustainable,” Sanders said during his 14-minute speech.

Who knew?? Income, and wealth inequality is unsustainable.; 8/9/15, 2:02 PM
pm317 said...: Did you see the woman in black t-shirt chew off the head of the organizer? Can you imagine the spectacle if the security was called to remove these goons? They know perfectly well that was not going to happen. I am appalled by the absence of civility with this gang of thugs.; 8/9/15, 2:05 PM
Nichevo said...: I would have dragged them off with bags over their heads.; 8/9/15, 2:44 PM
pm317 said...: Googlemandering heh.. Fox and their Dem counterparts are giving us the unbiased truth, right?; 8/9/15, 3:04 PM
Gahrie said...: I am appalled by the absence of civility with this gang of thugs.

Civility is a tool of the White man used to oppress women and people of color.; 8/9/15, 5:25 PM

Quit annoying other peoples livelihood!
