If there was any thoughtful leadership restoration funding, would of went towards a "timed" buyout program from the jump while establishing a working group to construct the kind of barrier too return the shoreline to the ocean. It's not like the Gov. or the federal govt. wasn't aware of the NYC studies released that predicted it& offered possible solutions. But, the arrogance of a entitled class trumped any political will, so here is the sad aftermath.

You can never care too much about food! I'd argue we still care too little! It's central to everything else.

Shared publicly -+John Cassidy on Elizabeth Warren: “All indications suggest that she’s preparing to run as Lunch Pail Hillary, the up-and-at-’em scrapper for the working stiff who emerged in the later stages of her 2008 campaign.”

There are no altruists in D.C. Everyone is there to make money. She is as good a politician as I have seen considering they are all in it for themselves. Name another one that has taken on the banks for holding the homeowners and taxpayers of this Nation hostage until they got repaid from public funds? You cannot because she is the only one to date.

Peavy is gone after just 1.1 innings and two runs for KC. Petit in to try to kill a bases-loaded, one-out jam.
Oops, single to right by Cain, now it's 4-0!
Whoa, two-run double by Hosmer, now it's 6-0!
Butler gapper scores Hosmer, it's 7-0!
The Royals bat around in the 2nd...
Remember how this series started: Bumgarner won Game 1, then the Royals beat Peavy and Vogelsong to take the next two games.
