Don't hold your breath on her supporting farmers co-ops. Those are too close to grassroots who believe in "local" control and less big government. Same with organic groups. They don't meet USDA standards.
Don't throw the baby out with the water. It was Darden Restaurants, which owns "a few" Red Lobster and Olive Garden restaurants. Since these resturants are franchise, you might find that a lot of the other franchises are thumbing their nose at her.
Other dealerships had their orders cut back, and suffered sales because they couldn't offer variety to their customers and couldn't keep up with demand.
There are so many fallacies in her argument, it is almost senseless to say anything. As per Obama taking over auto industry, let's talk about how he took stockholder shares and gave it to the unions. When in fact, if allowed to go into bankruptcy court, the unions would have been forced to concede to the auto industry. Secondly, Obama caused the closing of dealerships which were locally owned, not Detroit owned. Excuse me? How can he do that? It was more than losing jobs, it was forcing dealerships who wanted to stay afloat, and many were afloat. Some of those dealerships continued in marketing used cars (previously owned is more politically correct).

When are people going to acknowledge the fundamentals of plumbing. You are what you are created as, and perfectly fitted for the opposite sex.
Obama wants to adopt the same energy plan North Korea has. Notice the darkness at night on satellite images compared to South Korea.
First of all, it's about SEX, not relationships. I bond with men of like interests, as do women. But I don't practice anal sex or oral sex withthem. Friendship is one thing. A sexual act is totally different, and that is what is condemned. I could debate this from a biological view, but it would gross you out.

In the House, Is 80 Over the Hill?

Without the warpaint, Pelosi would show her age. She's over 70, as is Reid. But you are right, it is not age but tenure. We also need common folks in Washington, not career lawyers or political science majors. We have a few doctors, but should limit terms, but need farmers, business men, etc. Also need shorter terms. Let them go to Washington for 3 months, get business done in simple terms, not 2700 page monsters, and go home to their farm or business. If employed, most business would grant 3 month leave of absence for such patriotism.

Age is not the factor. It's tenure with all the benefits and career politicians. We need politicians like in the frontier days. Daniel Boone comes to mind, a man who went to Washington to serve, and then returned home without a retirement and nestegg accumulated while in Washington.

Ben Shapiro, you should have prefaced the article with Martin Niemöller's quote from WWII era. First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me. Only error in a paraphrase is that it is now the Beltway communists and unions who are the bullies out to destroy conservatives.
