That doesn’t already I’m not sure if I’m going to make it solve anything. Mostly I think, if you had to without popping a vessel in my brain. I try post that to try to bring down someone else not to look. It’s like saying don’t look at a car and you knew it was false rhetoric, what does accident. How can you not. Especially with that say about your side of the argument? a big ridiculous idiot like Donald Trump out If you are on the “correct side of the fight, there saying big ridiculous idiotic things on a should there not be simple, clear and easily daily basis. This whole process seems less like linkable facts to support your assertions and citizens enjoying their rights and freedoms and not links to ultra-fringe blogs nobody has ever more like a bad tv show who’s writing staff has heard of? But many of these attack-themed jumped the shark. sources are so inflammatory that I cannot It’s got to be a really frustrating time to be fathom that an educated person would ever a Republican. In a age when outrageousness, take the seriously. But they do. A lot of them wild stunts and stinging sound bytes get you do, and they share, share, share. I try not to noticed, it’s mostly the jokers who excel at argue with them, but when it’s really easy that kind of behavior who have risen to top of to post a link to another resource pointing the field. Obviously I’m a raging liberal, but I out that their story, usually deeply rooted in think I can still look at this roster of weirdos manure and sometimes hate, is just trash and and see that the ones in the mix who seem that they are harming society by perpetuating to have some kind of grip on normalcy, do I it, I will. My fact-checking never makes them dare name them… Bush, Rubio, maybe Kasich take down the post though. Sometimes or Christie. But they all trail the Donald by they’ll even admit the point, but leave the a hefty margin. It seems like everyone in post up because “people are entitled to their America already knows that Trump is going opinions.” Insert stunned silence on my part. to implode eventually and the real contenders You understand that if it’s factually proven to will rise to the top. But still, seeing people like be false, that’s not a opinion anymore, right? Scott Walker, Ted Crux, Mike Huckabee, Rick That’s called mendacity… and slander… or libel. Santorum and Rick Perry in there has got to It’s really just frustrated hate in my opinion. give even-tempered conservatives the willies. If you so hate the other side of your argument Being on Facebook does not help at all that you will knowingly, purposefully spread with weeding through the chaff. It’s about 100 untruths to foster your sentiments, what does times worse, actually. Basically, at election that say about you and what you stand for? I’m time, Facebook, on either side of the political not saying liberals are always right. Well, we spectrum, is simply a forum for expounding probably are. But still. Liberals are not innocent lies and bigger lies. Both sides will jump on in this either. But it’s not a 50/50 thing. There any morsel of bad juju to aim it at the other is a lot more easily disprovable chatter coming side. If you just went by Facebook comments, from the right. Not picking fights. There just is. you might think the Obama was actually Sadly, I honestly think many times they post the worst president ever. The only things he these things because they desperately want it seems to have going for him are the facts to be true when they know it’s actually not. which basically tell the exact opposite story. I hate when I see my dear liberals do stupid But nonetheless, this Kenyan-born secret stuff too, even when it’s not even false, just muslim who still harbors secret plans for a stupid. For example, posting stories about the third term and an eventual dictatorship is put lion-killing dentist donating to the Romney on a pedestal of awfulness. I don’t think it’s campaign last election. What does that have to necessarily a race thing, though how many do with anything? Romney does not condone presidents before him have been forced to killing lions, you moron. Shut up. prove they are an American… or a Christian? How about we all, in our flaming rage That’s just awful. I think people just really really leading up the election, just promise to take 30 really hate being proved wrong. extra seconds to examine every inflammatory I think maybe I’m the only one on Facebook thing we share publicly, whether it’s on with a bulls*#t filter? This can’t be true, but it Facebook, at work or in letters to the editor. sure seems that way. Everyday I see people I Fact check it. Before you tell the world that like and admire sharing stories that, at a quick Obama was actually secretly bio-engineered glance, are obviously not possibly true. Often from Hitler’s DNA, look it up. If you can find it takes about 15 seconds of Googling to point facts to back that up from legit sources, share out the truth. Usually it’s so easy that there is away! But if you can easily find proof that what an entry for it on snopes.com, the website that you are about to share is just frustrated hate keeps track of such lies. I have to wonder what speech, then move on and find a real argument it is that makes someone post or share these to support instead. Otherwise, what is it that stories? They have to know they’re crap, right? you are accomplishing with your lashing out? It Even the ones from the liberal side, though isn’t contributing to solve our problems. It sure they are out done about 10 to 1 from the right. as hell isn’t patriotic. n But even when I see them from my side it DUBUQUE365.COM ISSUE #244 JULY 30–AUGUST 12, 2015 365INK MAGAZINE INKUbator 3 EVENTS ONGOING Titanic: the Artifact Exhibition Through September 7 Monday Summer Farmers’ Market National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium Mondays: Through Summer @ 3:30–6:30 PM Titanic: the Artifact Exhibition takes you on a East Mill Bakeshop & Catering journey back in time to experience the legend East Mill on the corner of Bryant St. and of Titanic like never before.

    PROPERTY OF Iowa DOT library HOWAFIO NEEOLES TAMMEN & BEFIGENOOFF January 24, 1975 Mr. Raymond L. Kassel Deputy Chief Engineer of Planning Iowa State Highway Commission Ames, Iowa 50010 Dear Mr. Kasse 1: We respectfully submit herewith our Supplemental Report on the studies and investigations of the construction of two new Mississippi River Toll Bridges at Dubuque, Iowa and the imposition of tolls in the present Julien Dubuque Bridge. The new bridges are known as the City Is land Bridge and the Route 520 Bridge. · Summary and Recommendations The following conclusions and recommendations are based upon Howard, Needles, Tammen and Bergendoff's estimated project costs and the traffic and revenue estimates prepared by Wilbur Smith & Associates, Inc., as presented in this report and previous reports and.studies. 1. Constructing the City Island Bridge as a four-lane toll facility with the existing Eagle Point Bridge as a private toll facility, and with the Julien Dubuque Bridge remaining "free", and with no additional river crossings in the area is not a feasible alternate. 2. Constructing the City Island Bridge as a four-lane toll facility; constructing the Route 520 bridge as a two­ lane toll facility; and imposing tolls on the existing Julien Dubuque Bridge appears to warrant more detailed structure cost and traffic-revenue studies. Authority and Purpose of Supplemental Report On September 18, 1974, the Iowa State Highway Commission authorized Howard, Needles, Tammen and Bergendoff, with Wilbur Smith & Associates, Inc., as a sub-contractor, to perform engineering services related to ~tpdating the October, 1968 study of Mississippi River Toll Bridges of Dubuque, Iowa.
