Joe Manchin

“This isn’t the first time an out-of-stater has tried to tell West Virginians what is best for them despite having no relationship to our state. … Senator Sanders’ answer is to throw more money on an already overheated economy while 52 other Senators have grave concerns about this approach. … I will not vote for a reckless expansion of government programs. No op-ed from a self-declared Independent socialist is going to change that.” — Senator Joe Manchin, 10/15/21

The full context, including link to the Sanders op-ed published Friday in the Charleston [WV] Gazette-Mail can be viewed here.

And remember, a couple of weeks back, Manchin dared to mention means-testing for any future expansion of Medicare or any other federal government program.

From the desk of John Lopez: The 74-year old former 2-term West Virginia governor and current 2-term U.S. Senator is really feisty, but terrific to see him tell the truth. POLITICO points out Senator Sanders (I, VT) gave Senator Manchin (D, WV) an advanced copy of the op-ed after it was submitted to the Gazette-Mail. In Manchin’s opinion per POLITICO, Sanders crossed a line submitting an op-ed to his hometown’s newspaper attacking him.

  1. Read the article by Sanders in the WV newspaper.

    Democrat Senators Manchin and Sinema from NV are being badgered and hounded by Democrats and Democrat type groups to support the reckless Democrat $3.5 Trillion spending bill. They are doing to their own what goofball Democrat Representative Maxine Waters called for many months ago to do to Trump Administration staffers.

    There was a good article in Friday’s Wall Street Journal by Kimberly Strassel about how Democrat groups are hounding and harassing Sinema including following her into a women’s washroom at a university, waiting for her to do her business in a stall, trying to talk to here while she is in a stall and then when she comes out and is washing her hands. It is all on a video. Saw it on FOX TV. Doubt that the mostly Pravda media channels in the US showed this.

    More and more proof ongoing of how reckless and evil are top Democrat politicians and their organized supporters. And they are grand liars, currently their top liar is Joe Biden. Recall how the worst ever president of the US, until Biden, Barak Hussein Obama lied grandly and many times about his and Pelosi’s “Obamacare”? Obama said to Americans many times, saying If you like your health care plan and doctors you can keep these when we pass Obamacare.

  2. Amazing folks that are actually from Vermont rarely, if ever, accept those who are not, moving to their State–referring to them as “Flatlanders” no matter where they come from.

    You can live there for 50 years and still feel the shun the locals actually from Vermont give out to a person.

    So whats the deal with not just the acceptance of “Flatlander” NYC born and bred Socialist, radical Commie Bernie Sanders–not just accept him but elect him to represent you and yours in Vermont?

    I say let the new illegals from Mexico and Afghanistan as a majority, be flown and bused and dumped in Vermont.

    Afterall its what Bernie would want.

    Let that too lilly White State meet some real Flatlanders.

    Keep your nose in Vermont business Commie Bernie and not in West Virginia’s.

    And Vermonters–shame on the lot of you.

  3. Some people think Bernie is the actual acting president.

    Socialism is for losers.

    Has Sanders ever done anything productive? Ever?

  4. Why does Jewish Supremacist Power promote trannies?

    Because Jews want us to get used to the idea of deferring to minority-elites as the new royalty with a corner on authority.

    For Jews, the ideal of the straight normal majority bowing down to the homo & trannie deviant-minority complements and reinforces the globalist ideal of goy majorities everywhere bowing down to Jewish-Zionist Hegemony.

    Trannies on their own would have no power and would be a laughing stock.

    But because they have the backing of Jews who control media, finance, entertainment, academia, and the deep state, they strut around like they’re something special.

  5. I think you are mixing up the County Clerk with the McHenry Township Clerk.

  6. Shake, I can’t debate the 2 idiots I called names.

    The sad thing is that you are actually raising children.

    I’m not calling you names I am making a factual observation based on all of your posts.

    You really need some help if all you can do is troll people on a board where no one really cares for your opinion, commentary or nitpicking.

    If your life is watching what people po

    Hopefully their mother is a better parent.
