WARREN BUFFETT PLEDGES TO ESCORT HILLARY VOTERS TO POLLS IN NOVEMBER?

Buffett made a surprise appearance in Omaha alongside Democratic Presidential Nominee Hillary Clinton Monday afternoon. He challenged Trump to release his tax returns, and went on to criticize Trump’s recent comments on the Khan family, who lost their son fighting in Iraq.

After launching his new website – Drive2vote – allowing people to sign up for a ride or provide transportation for others on Election Day, as well as to register to vote, he promised to be a key participant in that endeavor.

Buffett pledged to “take at least 10 people to the polls who otherwise would have had difficulty getting there” on November 8, challenging his congressional district to “give America a civics lesson.”

As far as his railroad is concerned, let me offer a big hint: cheer for the competition.

Buffet slumming with commoners? I’ll believe it when I see it.

What would be the monetary value of the campaign contribution he would be giving Hillary? I’m assuming he’s already maxed that out.

There is nothing that this billionaire HAS to do or HAD to be done. It is nothing but disconnected greed coupled with false will to do something substantive. There isn’t anything about that man that has to do with civic responsibility for civilities sake. A decrepit old snake.

And wasn’t this the railroad where two locos smacked head on into one another a few weeks ago in Texas, igniting a fireball of blazing oil?

I’m a software contractor on the PTC project on a competing railroad, I won’t say which it is, but hoo boy. I had wondered why the railroads were not forming some kind of development consortium. Now I think I know why. If you don’t do it in house, you never know quite what is going to be in it. I don’t think I would want to touch BNSF’s software with a ten mile pole.

Well, I mean in the sense of what appeared necessary to amass the maximum amount of money.

I’m assuming a business schemer like him has already investigated the PAC shill crap where they pretend Hillary doesn’t get any of it directly but we all know that is bullsh!t.

In effect that are all of the same hive mind, and the hive exists to perpetuate the queen.. Simple as that.

President Trump needs to look at how rail is carrying oil across the country. It is probably time to end rail transport and go with a safer pipeline.

But please tell us first so we can short the stock.

Democrats have been doing this for decades. Call a number, get a ride, vote Dem, return home. Repeat. Anyone know if Trump’s volunteers are doing this?

PTC will help a lot, but not totally. It can keep trains from blowing by signals or exceeding speed limits. It can’t detect faulty tracks. Pipelines have their own woes. FWIW, Buffett’s railroad makes a lot more of its profit on oil than the one I work on.

Well he can certainly afford the gas and drivers what with the Billions in taxes he has not paid.

What a hypocrite, says tax the rich but won’t pay his lawful share.

The FEC, the IRS, the SEC and every other damn agency under Obama’s thumb covers up sh!t. That’s a fact. We’ve seen that with Lerner, Koshkinen and the FBI Director Comey.

EVERYTHING contributed and amassed on her behalf ends up under her control, period.

Warren Buffet’s shows his true colors — extreme Lefty because that’s what’s good for business. The people be damned.

Finally he gets a honest job where he has to work and just not suck off the government teat with his crony capitalist friends and politicians. Will probably be the only honest work he has done in 40 years.

Why? They’re the ones that disrupt elections, not conservatives. Typical of them to deflect their behavior onto the right.
