I can't imagine how twisted your mind has to be to come up with bullshit like that and say it with a straight face.

because they're everybody's problem, along with the scarcity of affordable housing where the jobs are. People are sitting in traffic 3-5 hours a day on top of long working hours because they've been forced out into the exurbs by decades of gentrification in some areas and neglect in others. Clearly this is an insane way to live.

are mere figments of one's imagination. As is corporate reliance on a functional transportation system to move their goods and services across the country.

One could say that. It wouldn't be true, but one could say it. One could say anything, but in order to be credible one would have to have a credible explanation which no one here has been able to provide. If you can tell me at which point it should be obvious she is turning his words against him, I would certainly appreciate it.

I'll catch up on the backside of my nap.

He said women not only commute to work but also do more than their share shopping and transporting kids. Saying that women do more than their share of the fanily’s work is not sexist. It’s the truth. Let Cassidy get support for Biden’s bill. Don’t get in his way.

work is clearly of NO value.

Not holding my breath to see if he actually votes for any of the infrastructure package.
