    So if it hits close to home for you it is serious, but the race baiting stuff you've posted for years is OK because it's just for giggles? That's the kind of thinking that got this guy elected.

    Fer fuck's sake ... the fee was only reduced last week. If it was such a goddamn wonderful thing, why the fuck did Saint Barry wait until the movers came?

    Because he was still governing, unlike the Republicans who obstructed him at every turn.

    Ah, c'mon guy. They're just cold and wanting to get warm. It's all raining and cold there. Why do you hate people getting warm?

    Serious question... I know little about this, but what I have read is that it's helpful to the middle/working class.

    So why do away with it, no matter when it happened?

    Because "In your eye, puddin' pie" is a pretty lousy justification for a given policy decision?

    Reducing the cost of homeowners' insurance is some sort of insult? It seems like it was a good thing. But whatever.

    This is just the first step toward their stated goal of dismantling Obama's entire legacy.

    Might as well get used to it.

    I wonder if Zoller ever found his Vichy swine.

    No, that's not what I'm saying. If it was a good idea to do it last week, it was a good idea to do it months ago. After all, there's been no fundamental change in the housing market or the economy (least as far as I can tell). Either the insurance has been overpriced for a long time (doubtful) or this reduction is inappropriate (much more likely). So why'd St. Barry the Arrogant* do it, and why'd he wait until last week? Because he knew that Trump would have to undo it, and doing so would add even more fuel to the fire for Trump's detractors.
