PS, thank you for taking the time and thought to post a better understanding of the issue.

Congressman Garret Graves


Louisiana, correct?

If he did, good for him, but poster I was responding to was in KY. The Teachers Retirement is state, not Federal, so wondering if what Congressman Graves did in 2024 was state specific (especially as Louisiana was the only state in the country to root in France law, than English law).

If it wound up being accepted over all 50 states, good for the Congressman. If it was an exception for a single state, the struggle is still there.

It cost former candidate Kelly Craft (R) a shot at the governor office in KY doing the "purple hair" teacher ad from a national company. Presuming teachers in KY were young, liberal, and had purple hair. The reality was middle age to seniors, conservatives, and the older ones were "blue hairs". She went from probable first place to last place overnight and the ads did not even run long before they were pulled.

Problems with outsiders running elections and marketing for said elections is not understating "boots on the ground" voters.

Where Kentucky politicians got it right!

:bow:

Where they got it wrong was at the Federal level with Social Security

If one spouse has KTR, they can not benefit if the other spouse has Social Security at their death. Democrats never addressed it when they were in power. Republicans are even more resistant now they have monopoly power in both houses. It hits a lot of Kentuckians when you have a teacher and say a cop couple.

If your mom was a teacher, thanks for her service from the people she touched directly and indirectly.

Wrong target

If you want to fix DC you go after the Cliff Dwellers and the Beltway Boys. Fix that and you are actually on path to fixing America, problem is neither is beholden to either party.

Get the slippers you gave her last time that she never wears and wrap then up as new.

On the way to the facility, stop by and swipe flowers from graves there.

If that does not work, you always have this option.

HDC posts this board, he lost his beloved dog. Now he has Dindu Nuffin von Thundermittens.


Here is his dog, which as you know was winning the National dog photo contest linked here last year or the year before. I think the sponsors disqualified him.

All hat, no cattle. Keep in mind it was those mountain boys from Kentucky and Tennessee that fought and died for Texas independence.

PS, Kentucky has 500 to 1000 years of coal in those hills and lots of hydroelectric in da hood to power the future of the TVA. Why do you think they built Oak Ridge and Fort Knox where they did.
