Not that I'm prejudiced but all of few remaining friends (most have croaked by now) are all straight. As for the term, just a reminder that it is one invented by and on behalf of themselves as shown in my previous article from the conservative National Review so that it is not a slur. Remember?

Very homophobic to call Tea Party people teabaggers.

Teabagging is placing your balls in someone's mouth or on their face...it's only disrespectful if your partner isn't willing. If you guys think non-gender specific foreplay is homophobic and disrespectful, well I guess that says more about you than it does about gopher...and, I pity the both of you.

Nothing wrong with consensual tea bagging. And just a reminder that it was I who wrote about the need for states in the USA to respect the Constitution's guarantee of equal protection to marriage equality advocates.

I've written about political tea bagging but when I do so the delusional forum right wingers pretend that it is an objection to consensual sex engaged in by same sex partners. Such projections tell you more about them than it does about anybody else.

:lol: If a simple description counts as anything close to advanced techniques in your book, well then that's just sad really. :p I would have thought as a John to $5 hookers you'd have picked up a few tricks here or there. You said something about tips and male hookers in New Orleans once...

This gem of a book touches upon that subject and is well worth reading:

I can't say that I'm too upset that I'm a noob in terms of being involved in your preferred choice of, ahhh, recreation.

PS - Can't says I've ever imbibed in the services of a $5 hooker..... I suppose that there always is a first time though

You said something about tips and male hookers in New Orleans once...

That was supposed to be a warning.

You ought to get down there sometime... Won't take you very long to uncover the reason for this advice

Poll: GOP couldn’t live on minimum wage, but still won’t raise it



By David Ingram - NBC
7/23/14



A vast majority of Republicans say they would not be able to live off the current federal minimum wage, but they still don’t support raising it, according to a new poll released Tuesday.

The research, conducted by the left-leaning Public Policy Polling, finds 69% of Republicans say they don’t think it’s feasible for them to make a living off the current minimum wage of $7.25 an hour. And the feeling is bipartisan with 80% of Democrats and 74% of Independents sharing the same sentiment.

However, it does not appear to change the GOP’s stance. According to the poll, just 37% of Republicans say they support a raise to the minimum wage; nearly 3 in 4 Democrats back a hike. Overall, more than half of the respondents, 54%, back President Obama’s proposal for a higher minimum wage.

Strong Democratic support for raising the minimum wage is not surprising. In April, Senate Democrats introduced legislation that would have raised the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour, but it failed, 54-42. The proposal needed 60 votes needed to move forward. Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) was the only member of the GOP to break ranks and support the measure. Even if the Senate vote has succeeded, the future of any Democratic-proposed bill to raise the minimum wage had a dismal outlook. House Republican leaders have said they would not debate legislation unless it included job training programs.

Some 28 million American workers would have seen more money in their paychecks if Congress would approve an increase to the minimum wage, according to Sen. Tom Harkin’s office – the lead sponsor of this year’s bill. Sen. Harkin’s office also says the federal government would save $4.6 billion annually from people no longer relying on food stamps.

The poll findings comes after the launch of a new campaign, “Live the Wage,” which challenges lawmakers to...

Most people don't make minimum wage .

That's good. In fact when the MW was increased here in Gopherland the unemployment rate went down. As people earn more money they spend more. This generates more tax revenues and adds to the state's economy and promotes still more job growth.

Therefore, contrary to the myths of certain right wing delusionals, MW's should be increased throughout the USA and Canada.
