Booksellers say they were completely caught off guard when Dr. Seuss’s publisher yanked six books for racially offensive imagery this week in a move that’s only served to send sales skyrocketing.
 |
| You WILL NOT buy the racist books, you WILL NOT try to take your looks. you WILL buy others with less offense, please DO NOT use your common sense. |
The stampede has resulted in hundreds of Barnes & Noble’s 620 retail stores selling out of some of the most popular titles by the beloved children’s author born Theodor Seuss Geisel, including “Cat in the Hat” and “Green Eggs and Ham.”
Amazon appears to have had a similar experience with shoppers on Wednesday attempting to buy banned titles being told they were “unavailable,” sources said. Sales of Dr. Suess’s non-banned books, meanwhile, have been booming on the online shopping portal.
By Thursday afternoon, just seven of Amazon’s top 30 titles across all categories were not written by Dr. Seuss. “Cat in the Hat,” “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish” and “Horton Hears a Who,” meanwhile, dominated the top three.
So, to recap... the cancellers at the publishing company who found certain Dr. Seuss books so offensive that others were not allowed to buy them, only prompted a mad rush of people everywhere to go out and purchase as many Dr. Seuss books as possible. Now either these publishers are the dumbest people on the planet or the cleverest, depending on whether they were looking to actually cancel Dr. Seuss or looking to make money.
But here we sit, with only seven of the top thirty books on the Amazon best seller list not Dr. Seuss books. I guess the last laugh is being aimed at those who thought they were powerful enough to simply "cancel" an Icon like Dr. Seuss because they said so! Sometimes capitalism speaks loudest.

Republican Science
So Roger...
You are saying that it was Republicans who decided that Mr and Mrs Potato head was an affront to societal norms and a threat to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
Because I am pretty sure it was the liberal cancel culture who decided that a Potato could not be male or or female without being so offensive as to risk Armageddon.
But I guess we can agree to disagree on who cancelled Mr Potato head.
HATE TO TELL YOU, SCOTTIE,
BUT SEUSS WAS A (GASP!) LIBERAL!!!
AND HIS BOOKS ARE CRAMMED FULL OF LIBERAL IDEAS!
SO, DO BUY THOSE BOOKS FOR YOUR KIDS, FOLKS!

Political messages of Dr. Seuss
The political messages of Theodor Seuss Geisel, best known as Dr. Seuss, are found in many of his books. Geisel, a cartoonist and author for children, was also a liberal and a moralist who expressed his views in his books through the use of ridicule, satire, wordplay, nonsense words, and wild drawings to take aim at bullies, hypocrites, and demagogues.
Geisel's political ideas can be found in books such as:
The Lorax, Marvin K. Mooney Will You Please Go Now!, The Cat in the Hat, Horton Hears a Who!, Yertle the Turtle, The Sneetches, and The Butter Battle Book. Geisel also had a career in making political cartoons.
THE ARTICLE CONTINUES, AND IS GREAT!!!
One of my FAVORITES:
from HORTON HEARS A WHO:
"A person's a person no matter how small."
And YERTLE THE TURTLE some have tried to pull from libraries. Why?
Dr. Seuss
and
Joe Biden
are UNITERS!
I realize Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head don’t have genitals — if they did, I would call for them to be BANNED immediately, that’s disgusting! — but it’s irrelevant because Mr. Potato Head has been called Mr. Potato Head since he was first released in 1952, and anything from the 1950s that gets changed is bad.
That’s clearly an abomination, and I and my fellow Republican colleagues will not agree to any COVID-19 relief package that doesn’t clearly define a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup as the marriage of chocolate and peanut butter.
I’m a man of the people, and I can assure you no one in government is more concerned about the needs of everyday Americans than me. That’s why I devoted the past 48 hours of my actual adult-human life to angrily claiming liberals had CANCELED AND BANNED children’s author Dr. Seuss, proving I had the anti-intellectual fortitude to ignore the fact that a private company established by the Seuss family chose to stop publishing only six of his lesser-known books.
We face the worst medical crisis of of a century, and an economic crisis since The Great Depression.
The Republican party of the former is fixated on an author of the 1950s.
Welcome 2021.
Well Reverend muddy the waters when you are wrong...
How does Dr. Seuss being a "liberal or conservative or something in between" have anything to do with whether or not it was liberals or conservatives who "cancelled" him?
But hey, if you and Roger both want to defend the idea that it was the dastardly conservative Trump movement folks who decided to "cancel" Dr. Seuss over so called racist books...
Then go ahead and make that argument.
But get ready for all of the thwapping that will take place when you push that ridiculous argument. Thwap!!!
A private company designed to cease publication, a right guaranteed by the first amendment of the United States of America.
Even if a politician asked them to cease publications, it is also protected by the first amendment.
The Republicans have decided that potatoes are the third gender.

At least we know who gave an eulogy to a KKK leader.
and thinks Obama was the first "clean" black man
and you aren't black if you don't vote for Biden.
So I guess we do know who would have been a good plantation owner.
and now he would be capable of running around the plantation with a butterfly net
ROFLMFAO !!!

Republicans didn't cancel Seuss and Potato Head alky.
you assholes did.

Roger.... I believe that everyone knows that it was only "some" of the Dr Seuss books that were banned by the publisher, not all of them. In fact, had you bothered to read the post, you would have seen that my own post states that the publisher banned six books. I also make personal reference to the fact that there were banned and unbanned Dr. Seuss books.
So I am not sure what point you are making since we are all aware that only six books were banned. Are you really suggesting that people don't understand that?
But that also didn't stop others from taking action, including certain places taking ALL of the Dr Seuss books off their shelf, childcare facilities and others deciding to no longer read or have Dr Seuss on hand. It wasn't "just" the publisher who decided to take action.
And to be honest here Roger... the concept of the full scale "cancel" rarely if ever actually works. The idea of "cancelling" someone is the attempt to undermine their business or undermine their place in whatever field that they are in. If only 20% of their livelihood get's cancelled, apparently that is not enough for you to use that term?
Sound's to me like you and whoever wrote that stupid quote you keep repeating has a very stupid concept of how you define the idea of the cancel culture.
The Democrats are not banning anything by law.
Since when did the cancel culture need to rely on Democrats to create laws? DO you even have the first fucking clue as to what the cancel culture actually is?
Scottie, don't keep embarrassing yourself.
It is true that during WWII Seuss published some anti "Jap" cartoons that he later regretted.
So he published HORTON HEARS A WHO
as a beautiful and fitting apology:
"A person's a person no matter how small."
Read the Wiki article.
It describes the real message in so many of Dr. Seuss' books.
You're welcome.
Glad to be of help.

We will take the following AS FACT.
"Roger AmickMarch 7, 2021 at 9:53 AM

Thing is, Dr. Seuss is for ages 3-7 reading level.
In 4th grade, as stated as fact , was reading at an age 7 level. While being age 9.

cancel culture has nothing at all to do with the law, alky.
you're as informed about this as you are about "Sec. 320."
THWAP!!! THWAP!!! THWAP!!!
and to show just how much knowledge and respect for "the law" democrats have, they're trying to push through HR 1. one of the most blatantly unconstitutional "laws" of my lifetime.
RRB, BE gentle with Alky.
He was retarded, age 9, but reading at an age 7 level.

The "cancel culture" is political. Just like the racist rodent bastard called Mexicans beaners. They aren't cancelling the KKK. Or the stand up and stand by Proud Boys the former loves.
It's perfectly protected by the first amendment. You have deleted my posts, you are part of the cancel culture.
Nobody is pressuring any Democrat to ban Dr Seuss books.
Now that I have destroyed his arguments, he will insult and call me names.
Commander-in-thief Biden.
I read Alky when he posts in his own words about his life.
It is funny.
Funny , like this one from Rig.
"Now that I have destroyed his arguments"
Very funny.
I was able to read by third grade.
By seventh grade I was reading at a college level.
Well Reverend...
None of this has anything to do with a history of Dr. Seuss lesson. The fact that you want to make it out to be about Dr. Seuss history is a clear indication that you are defending the publisher book ban in spite of the overwhelming evidence (based on capitalism) that shows you are in the very small (but very loud) minority when it comes to this thing.
The silent majority used their credit cards to show you and your mindmumbingly holier than thou pretentious self indulgent minority what they thought of the banning of even six of Dr. Seuss books.
Now you can embarrassingly attempt to argue that this was a conservative ban of a liberal author who was expressing liberal ideas that conservatives needed to ban...
If you want... that is what Roger is arguing.
Or you can admit that that is a stupid argument and that no matter how you might want to define the Cartoonist himself, that it was still the cancel culture of the left that decided that this particular "liberal" was not quite "liberal enough" and that some of these "Liberal books" were considered racist.
It's actually on record

If you were only able to read by third grade you probably were reading at a collage level by the seventh.

Right or left.
We are in the worst crisises in a century and again you are fixated upon your hate for liberals, instead of discussion about how to get the economy back in shape.
You aren't thinking outside the box.
There simply isn’t one age where kids can or should be reading—despite the deeply ingrained North American ideal that children learn to read in first grade, around age six.
https://www.todaysparent.com/family/activities/right-age-to-read/#:~:text=There%20simply%20isn%E2%80%99t%20one%20age%20where%20kids%20can,and%20Language%20Centre%20at%20the%20University%20of%20Alberta.

Roger , do tell us which College did you Graduate from and what degree was conferred upon you?
Actually my parents bought an encyclopedia when I was in third grade and I read all 12 of them that summer.

Executive Order on Promoting Access to Voting
MARCH 07, 2021 • PRESIDENTIAL ACTIONS
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Purpose. The right to vote is the foundation of American democracy. Free and fair elections that reflect the will of the American people must be protected and defended. But many Americans, especially people of color, confront significant obstacles to exercising that fundamental right. These obstacles include difficulties with voter registration, lack of election information, and barriers to access at polling places. For generations, Black voters and other voters of color have faced discriminatory policies and other obstacles that disproportionally affect their communities. These voters remain more likely to face long lines at the polls and are disproportionately burdened by voter identification laws and limited opportunities to vote by mail. Limited access to language assistance remains a barrier for many voters. People with disabilities continue to face barriers to voting and are denied legally required accommodations in exercising their fundamental rights and the ability to vote privately and independently. Members of our military serving overseas, as well as other American citizens living abroad, also face challenges to exercising their fundamental right to vote.
The Constitution and laws of the United States prohibit racial discrimination and protect the right to vote. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 and other Federal statutes implement those protections and assign the Federal Government a key role in remedying disenfranchisement and unequal access to the polls. In passing the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, the Congress found that it is the duty of Federal, State, and local governments to promote the exercise of the fundamental right to vote. Executive departments and agencies (agencies) should partner with State, local, Tribal, and territorial election officials to protect and promote the exercise of the right to vote, eliminate discrimination and other barriers to voting, and expand access to voter registration and accurate election information. It is our duty to ensure that registering to vote and the act of voting be made simple and easy for all those eligible to do so.
Sec. 2. Policy. It is the policy of my Administration to promote and defend the right to vote for all Americans who are legally entitled to participate in elections. It is the responsibility of the Federal Government to expand access to, and education about, voter registration and election information, and to combat misinformation, in order to enable all eligible Americans to participate in our democracy.
Sec. 3. Expanding Access to Voter Registration and Election Information. Agencies shall consider ways to expand citizens’ opportunities to register to vote and to obtain information about, and participate in, the electoral process.
(a) The head of each agency shall evaluate ways in which the agency can, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, promote voter registration and voter participation. This effort shall include consideration of:
Again, facts and Roger are estranged.
Roger , had to leave.
(i) ways to provide relevant information in the course of activities or services that directly engage with the public — including through agency materials, websites, online forms, social media platforms, and other points of public access — about how to register to vote, how to request a vote-by-mail ballot, and how to cast a ballot in upcoming elections;
(ii) ways to facilitate seamless transition from agencies’ websites directly to State online voter registration systems or appropriate Federal websites, such as Vote.gov;
(iii) ways to provide access to voter registration services and vote-by-mail ballot applications in the course of activities or services that directly engage with the public, including:
(A) distributing voter registration and vote-by-mail ballot application forms, and providing access to applicable State online systems for individuals who can take advantage of those systems;
(B) assisting applicants in completing voter registration and vote-by-mail ballot application forms in a manner consistent with all relevant State laws; and
(C) soliciting and facilitating approved, nonpartisan third-party organizations and State officials to provide voter registration services on agency premises;
(iv) ways to promote and expand access to multilingual voter registration and election information, and to promote equal participation in the electoral process for all eligible citizens of all backgrounds; and
(v) whether, consistent with applicable law, any identity documents issued by the agency to members of the public can be issued in a form that satisfies State voter identification laws.
(b) Within 200 days of the date of this order, the head of each agency shall submit to the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy a strategic plan outlining the ways identified under this review that the agency can promote voter registration and voter participation.
(c) The Administrator of the Office of Electronic Government, Office of Management and Budget, shall, consistent with applicable law, coordinate efforts across agencies to improve or modernize Federal websites and digital services that provide election and voting information to the American people, including ensuring that Federal websites are accessible to individuals with disabilities and people with limited English proficiency. As appropriate, the Administrator of the United States Digital Service may support agencies in implementing the strategic plans directed in subsection (b) of this section.
Sec. 4. Acceptance of Designation Under the National Voter Registration Act. (a) This order shall supersede section 3 of Executive Order 12926 of September 12, 1994 (Implementation of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993).
(b) Each agency, if requested by a State to be designated as a voter registration agency pursuant to section 7(a)(3)(B)(ii) of the National Voter Registration Act, shall, to the greatest extent practicable and consistent with applicable law, agree to such designation. If an agency declines to consent to such designation, the head of the agency shall submit to the President a written explanation for the decision.
(c) The head of each agency shall evaluate where and how the agency provides services that directly engage with the public and, to the greatest extent practicable, formally notify the States in which the agency provides such services that it would agree to designation as a voter registration agency pursuant to section 7(a)(3)(B)(ii) of the National Voter Registration Act.
Sec. 5. Modernizing Vote.gov. The General Services Administration (GSA) shall take steps to modernize and improve the user experience of Vote.gov. In determining how to do so, GSA shall coordinate with the Election Assistance Commission and other agencies as appropriate, and seek the input of affected stakeholders, including election administrators, civil rights and disability rights advocates, Tribal Nations, and nonprofit groups that study best practices for using technology to promote civic engagement.
(a) GSA’s efforts to modernize and improve Vote.gov shall include:
(i) ensuring that Vote.gov complies, at minimum, with sections 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973;
(ii) ensuring that Vote.gov is translated into languages spoken by any of the language groups covered under section 203 of the Voting Rights Act anywhere in the United States; and
(iii) implementing relevant provisions of the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience Act (Public Law 115-336).
(b) Within 200 days of the date of this order, GSA shall submit to the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy a strategic plan outlining the steps to modernize and improve the user experience of Vote.gov.
Sec. 6. Increasing Opportunities for Employees to Vote. It is a priority of my Administration to ensure that the Federal Government, as the Nation’s largest employer, serves as a model employer by encouraging and facilitating Federal employees’ civic participation. Accordingly, the Director of the Office of Personnel Management shall take the following actions within 200 days of the date of this order:
(a) coordinate with the heads of executive agencies, as defined in 5 U.S.C. 105, to provide recommendations to the President, through the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy, on strategies to expand the Federal Government’s policy of granting employees time off to vote in Federal, State, local, Tribal, and territorial elections. Such recommendations should include efforts to ensure Federal employees have opportunities to participate in early voting.
(b) Coordinate with the heads of executive agencies, as defined in 5 U.S.C. 105, to provide recommendations to the President, through the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy, on strategies to better support Federal employees who wish to volunteer to serve as non-partisan poll workers or non‑partisan observers, particularly during early or extended voting periods.
World Book Encyclopedia were quite more than 12 as well.
Oh well more shit Alky believes happened that never did
Sec. 7. Ensuring Equal Access for Voters with Disabilities. Within 270 days of the date of this order, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) within the Department of Commerce shall evaluate the steps needed to ensure that the online Federal Voter Registration Form is accessible to people with disabilities. During that period, NIST, in consultation with the Department of Justice, the Election Assistance Commission, and other agencies, as appropriate, shall also analyze barriers to private and independent voting for people with disabilities, including access to voter registration, voting technology, voting by mail, polling locations, and poll worker training. By the end of the 270-day period, NIST shall publish recommendations regarding both the Federal Voter Registration Form and the other barriers it has identified.
Sec. 8. Ensuring Access to Voting for Active Duty Military and Overseas Citizens. (a) Within 200 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of Defense shall establish procedures, consistent with applicable law, to affirmatively offer, on an annual basis, each member of the Armed Forces on active duty the opportunity to register to vote in Federal elections, update voter registration information, or request an absentee ballot.
(b) Within 200 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of Defense shall evaluate the feasibility of implementing an online system to facilitate the services described in subsection (a) of this section.
(c) The Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Department of State, the Military Postal Service Agency, and the United States Postal Service, shall take all practical steps to establish procedures to enable a comprehensive end-to-end ballot tracking system for all absentee ballots cast by military and other eligible overseas voters under the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act, 52 U.S.C. 20301 et seq. Within 200 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of Defense shall submit a report to the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy with a strategic plan for establishing the aforementioned tracking system.
(d) The head of each agency with overseas employees shall designate an employee to be responsible for coordinating with the Federal Voting Assistance Program, including to promote voter registration and voting services available to the agency’s overseas employees. The Director of the Office of Management and Budget may issue guidance to assist agencies in making such designations.
Sec. 9. Ensuring Access to Voter Registration for Eligible Individuals in Federal Custody. (a) The Attorney General shall establish procedures, consistent with applicable law, to provide educational materials related to voter registration and voting and, to the extent practicable, to facilitate voter registration, for all eligible individuals in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Such educational materials shall be incorporated into the reentry planning procedures required under section 4042(a)(7) of title 18, United States Code. The educational materials should also notify individuals leaving Federal custody of the restrictions, if any, on their ability to vote under the laws of the State where the individual resides and, if any such restrictions exist, the point at which the individual’s rights will be restored under applicable State law.
(b) The Attorney General shall establish procedures, consistent with applicable law, to ensure the United States Marshals Service includes language in intergovernmental agreements and jail contracts to require the jails to provide educational materials related to voter registration and voting, and to facilitate voting by mail, to the extent practicable and appropriate.
(c) The Attorney General shall establish procedures, consistent with applicable law, for coordinating with the Probation and Pretrial Services Office of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts to provide educational materials related to voter registration and voting to all eligible individuals under the supervision of the Probation and Pretrial Services Office, and to facilitate voter registration and voting by such individuals.
(d) The Attorney General shall take appropriate steps, consistent with applicable law, to support formerly incarcerated individuals in obtaining a means of identification that satisfies State voter identification laws, including as required by 18 U.S.C. 4042(a)(6)(B).
Nobody is banning anything.
You mean other than the publisher of Dr. Seuss deciding to ban six of his books from being printed anymore, EBay other others delisting certain Dr. Seuss books. We even have schools who have done things like literally "cancel" their "read across America day" association with Dr. Seuss. Even President Biden was criticized for specifically not mentioning Dr. Seuss as Obama and Trump had (Melenia read Dr. Seuss to children in a hospital one year) while taking about the special day (generally associated with Dr. Seuss).
You can call it whatever you want, Roger...
But Dr. Seuss was recently targeted for "racist" books and now there is backlash... as there will likely be as these people become more and more bold in attempting to control what others get to read and enjoy.
Actually I read all 24 volumes that summer. Most other kids were playing games, but I was more interested in the world.

🤣all 24 volumes of your 12 volume set?"RRB
Rogers story is untrue, like Cali said.
I was reading at a much higher level than you or almost everyone by 3rd grade.
In modern words I was a geek
It is ok, Roger, I forgive you.
I said the wrong number
Myballs said...
Reading by the 3rd grade. Lol. You're not bragging.
Look, alky is copy/pasting at a second grade level already !!!
furiously !!!
(what alky "thinks": paste longer posts and people may not realize how dumb he is)
Needs to impress any 3rd graders reading this.
ROFLMFAO !!!
Roger, Education has a score card in life.
Mine has a High School diploma.
A B.S. in Business administration and a
Master's degree in Economics from a College you might have heard of, The University of Kansas.
Yours ends at your high school.
What REALLY impressed alky in 3rd grade was the phone book.
Boy was that long back then !!!
VERY IMPRESSIVE.
and he could carry that by himself when he was 8.
Fits on Sunday funnies too but the Dr Seuss qualifies it here

Roger, without regard to "12" or "24" volumes I honest don't care.
My point was to expose you.
And the fantasy life you wish you had, had and the life you actually had.
Short example your goals for 2020 were.
1, buy an Audi A8 ($75k)
2, buy a Luxury Home (*more then one room)
3, Obtain a large and in charge bank acct.
4, Date/Marry a former Hot Model
Update, you secured exactly zero of those goals. See, they were strictly unattainable, see the real world runs in cash.

feels much better about himself after finding out his reading "skills" didn't impress anyone who had finished 3rd grade.
Same as his room with a tv didn't impress anyone except the homeless.
THWAP, THWAP !!!
we won't even go into his political opinions
Scott Nobody is banning anything by law.
And who ever claimed that the "cancel culture" did anything according to the law? It's like saying Donald Trump never questioned the election results "by law".
Biden’s Relief Bill Gets WARM RECEPTION
Washington Post:
“The disparity between the reception to President Barack Obama’s 2009 stimulus plan and President Biden’s is the result of several seismic shifts in American politics — the most dramatic of which may be the apparent impact of the pandemic on attitudes about the role of government in helping the economy.
“The shift is also the result of a reorientation on economic policy — both on the left and on the right — that has transformed the political landscape.”

Inciting violence against the Constitution and again the Capitol building is a high crime or misdemeanor. But the Republicans put their careers in first place.

Did you know that beating your wife is a criminal act of assault?
It was an allegation. I never hit Lydia in all 20 years.
Her lawyer filed allegations, but I was never charged with a crime.
You know how difficult divorce proceedings are. You went through the same thing
The allegations got her an eviction notice, because I was a legal resident, under California law.
I was never charged with a crime. So you are wrong again.
Cue the insults
If you claim that I have been arrested, with the intent to harm me,I will sue you.
I have your name and address.
Just a warning.
It's on the public record, that I have never been arrested.
I will save this just in case

Amazing that Lil Schitty and the kansas goat fucker spend sooooooo much time and effort on what you did or didn't do in your life....That shows one thing to me is that their worthless beings are being driven by old womanish desire to talk about everything they know nothing about....What a bunch of sick stupid fucks they are!!!!!!!
I think this is great news.
Kids as young as 11 would get lectures on “vaginal, oral, and anal sex”; study “queer, two-spirit, asexual, pansexual” and other gender identities; and receive explicit instruction on the use of external and internal condoms, dental dams and other contraceptives.
Buy stocks of Jordan Condoms inc.
Capitalism is not socialist like the President Biden's controlling Vice President Harris communist party supporter

The Super Bowl was a month ago. Everyone who went out partying in Tampa is alive and well.
Can't say the same for those locked up in the White House
Joe able to take real questions yet ????
Did you know that beating your wife is a criminal act of assault?
Roger... in case you didn't notice, that was a question rather than any sort of allegation.
I was simply wondering if you knew that any generic husband beating any generic wife was a crime?
Just like you were apparently asking me if "inciting violence" was a crime without specifically mentioning anyone in particular.
Now if you are referring to someone in particular, then you better be careful that your allegation is actually backed up with an arrest record, since that seems to be your defense here?
Does it matter if someone is arrested or not? Are we allowed to make accusations against people who have not been criminally charged, much less convicted.
If you were referring to President Trump as "inciting violence" you are doing so in full understanding that he was found not-guilty of said allegation and that he has not been criminally charged as a private citizen.
Or is it just another double standard? You can make accusations while others cannot even ask generic questions?

Another 100,000 California signatures by March 17th will help this expression remain on the face of “French Laundry” munching, school & church closing authoritarian Governor @GavinNewsom
#Recallgavin2020.com
1,927,000 and SOARING !!!
1,500,000 and it's done but going through vigorous signature verification, unlike the election. So far 85% are being accepted, again unlike the almost "perfect" election ballots...
In case you didn't notice Lil Schitty, but your obsession with Roger is rather sickening!!!!!!!! Why are you acting like an old jewish Yenta whose life revolves around making shit up about others>????? Very sad and telling how shitty your life really is!!!!!
Because the Republican base isn't getting riled up over the overall amount of spending in the $1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief bill or the proposed minimum wage hike. Instead, it apparently now cares a lot about whether cancel culture is coming for Dr. Seuss.
Scott has been gaslighted by Fox and pjmedia
Played and made to look foolish. Roger.....Lil Schitty posting that everyone should get 14 k per person from the relief bill is even more comical for him than usual....I guess all those other items getting funding are not germane to perfect idiots in the GOP who suddenly have become fiscally conservative for the first time since Obama was president!!!! Wonder why that is????????
The cancel culture is disappearing far more than Dr Seuss. We're seeing it
Across the south and across the country and even with Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln. Only an idiot would think it's only about Se7sd.
The former's first act was to cut taxes on the top one percent. The deficit skyrocketed, and has gotten worse for the next three years.
Now the cognitive dissonance is even more apparent.
Hypocrisy award for Scott ♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤
The House Minority Leader, Kevin McCarthy, blasted President Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus-relief package on Sunday, alleging that the measure “utterly fails” to address the nation’s dire Dr. Seuss crisis.
“This bill is full of left-wing pet projects, like helping people pay for food, clothing, and shelter,” McCarthy said, in an appearance on Fox News. “It does nothing to address the No. 1 problem in America today: the threat to our nation’s supply of Dr. Seuss books.”
Fighting COVID-19 with Ancestral Wisdom in the Amazon
McCarthy added, “If you talk to any average American, they’ll tell you their biggest concern is that their family will lose access to ‘Hop on Pop’ or ‘Horton Hears a Who!’ Instead of facing that emergency head on, the Democrats have stuffed this bill with a progressive wish list of things like medicine and rent.”
“This legislation is cancel culture at its worst,” he said.
The Republican lawmaker predicted that, if the relief package becomes law, the Democrats will pay a steep political price. “The American people can live without food,” he said. “They cannot live without ‘Green Eggs and Ham.’ ”

Show your theft Alky
Roger's been 7nder a rock or something the past two years. He thinks the cancel argument is only about Dr Seuss. Such a simpleton.
Very few people want to take down Lincoln, Washington and Jefferson statues.
People like ballsless want to keep Military camps named after traitorous soldiers who fought against the United States of America.
People like the alky want parking garages named for our troops.
Got to keep them in their place.
And all the worms and metal shavings they can eat.
Clap you bastards

I'm just so glad all those excellent Dr. Seuss books are out there making good little liberals out of children.
