  • I know right? I mean if they colluded to lower advertising prices through collective agreement that would be something. Especially if they had an internal forcing mechanism to ensure compliance.

    But um, they set out voluntary guidelines they suggested everyone follow to protect each member's own best interests, and decided to spend zero dollars to buy nothing, which is a far far cry from trying to spend zero dollars to buy something.

    What an ultra-maroon.

  • Yup. This is my guy, my VA rep. I remember getting either a mailer, or a newsletter, or whatever, update from his office talking about him starting this. Thought it was great and locked in my support. I agree we need to keep flowing in young blood into congress, but Don is still doing good work and doing his best to keep relevant.

  • Emotionally I am 100% on board with all of this.

    Intellectually I have to ask a question that was posed in the article but not addressed: Does this have a chance of impacting broader undercover type operations like Ag-Gag laws?

  • You're right of course, nor was I making any judgements. I loved seeing it! It made me smile. As did the quintessential "scowling french waiter" standing 15ft in front of us on the other side of the side walk, with apron and and all. And despite a previous poster's comment about their infamous cultural rudeness, these slightly overweight, non-french speaking Americans didn't experience any overt rudeness at all. If they were bad mouthing us quietly in french they did a great job of hiding it. [shrug]

    I would visit Paris again in a heartbeat; though I would never fly Air France nor pass through CDG if you paid me. Such a horrible experience. Guess we'll fly BA into LHR and take the chunnel or a ferry for the experience.

  • Jokes aside, I swear they really do walk around with baguettes in hand. 3 days in Paris, sitting at multiple cafes, and we saw it in the morning, at lunch, in the evening. Men, Women, Children, well dressed, poorly dressed (for a Parisian), black, white, brown, blue, green, every combination in between, we'd see someone walking around with baguettes. I've lived in multiple cities and visited even more in the US and Europe. Never have I seen so many people walking around with bread!
