Time to send Pete more money
He won't be taking money from lobbyists like Comcast and union busting law firms so I think I will send him another 200.00.

Screw Comcast. Support net neutrality.

Pro net neutrality is the good stance. It means no 'superhighway' tolling by the scum ISP's (like Comcast).

I thought I saw a 'they'
ffs
so sorry sweetie
It happens with me a lot, especially as my internal clock is all screwed up (I am in the EU atm and still on SoCal time in my brain, lolol)

(11,591 posts)7. It's, at least, partly my fault.
Like a pass in basketball, it's only good if the player you're passing it to can catch it.

I should have been more clear. You would think an old retired English teacher could construct clearer sentences. These days I'm lucky if I don't have to spell check everything.

(46,212 posts)4. my wife and I just sent 65 USD each again, we do this once a week (we have now done it for 5 weeks)

(11,591 posts)8. Way to go, Celerity!
I gave ten bucks today.
Can't wait for the debates. Pete will shine on the national stage.

(46,212 posts)11. we picked 65 USD cuz the very first number he needed to hit to qualify was 65,000 individual donors

and 65 USD a pop is 2.407407407407 (407 ad infinitum) time larger than Bernie's infamous 27 USD
AND
407 is the EXACT number of EV's IF we max crush Trump in a perfect sweep of all the remotely close swing states plus Texas (an Abrams Pete or Pete Abrams ticket could do this IF Trump has a huge explosion from the hearings)
