@HonorableAnt I once traded a VW Golf on a CLA. Worst car I’ve ever owned. Ditched it for an Audi A4 two months later. Bought the (exact same) Golf back this summer as a daily driver. The VW beats the Mercedes in every single category (and I’m a Mercedes guy, having owned an E550, CL55, SL550)
@DJBranham@OOCliberalism @Chudicular_ Tons of chemical and manufacturing along the rivers, though. Gutted Wood Co., which is one of the few red ones on there.
@66EarlyBird@Georgesantos I don’t think even the conservatives would argue Kagan is *dumb.*. Wrong, maybe. Dumb? Certainly not. She’s certainly the most intelligent of the liberals, and at least provides reasoning for her opinions beyond “I like the law! It can’t be bad.”
@Lisa_Asillie Helped crypto? I was the lobbyist on the crypto kiosk bill mentioned in this article; the bill regulates the kiosks. Previously, they were unregulated; you could put in $100,000 and send it as crypto—a conduit for fraud against the elderly. Not sure that’s helping crypto.
@toddgunter Fact is, he’s one of the 3-4 lawyers in WV you’d hire for a complex permitting case, regardless of his legislative service. If he weren’t Speaker or a member of the legislature and was just a private lawyer, they’d still hire him.
Roger Hanshaw has been Speaker of the House for eight years and an environmental lawyer for a lot longer. Did the WV press corps just figure this out or are they trying to influence an election?
