Being a heathen I have little interest in the opinions of ministers from Farrakhan to Robertson. At least he didn’t predict the world was going to end. When Pat called for the assassination of Hugo Chavez he was universally denounced at a nut job by all the left-wing intelligentsia. But when The Messiah puts the hit on Colonel K, Bookman wants to nominate him for another Nobel Peace Prize. Maybe Pat would have done better with a teleprompter. Actually he sounds sane compared to Plugs.

Dear mm @ 3:40, good afternoon, you miss the main distinction between our ideologies. Conservatives do not care “who” says anything, we are only interested in the reasoning behind an affirmation. Leftists do not care “what” anyone says, but form their opinions entirely based on the identity of the speaker.

If that’s what he said, then I agree too. The candidates are falling over themselves to please the “base”. But once past the base, the independents will not go for the extreme.

So let’s hope the more moderate(s) stay at the top for the primaries and the extremes can fall by the wayside.

But it’s only hope. . . reality does not look that way. (and it Got Georgia a bad Deal)

I am not saying that O’Reilly’s book was the definitive text on the killing of Lincoln. There are far more complete texts on the subject. It was, however, a fun read.

Gee whiz there was a occupy atlanta protester who said today on the radio that they were going to protest at the georgia pacific building and levitate the building 4 feet off the ground. Funniest news clip I ever did hear. Then they protested the Koch brothers and said they shouldn’t be allowed to contribute money to political causes. No surprise there.

What you say is based on nothing but false premises, all of them myths, blown apart by recent or previous illumination.

I actually like it that you have to insert perjoratives into your screed when you mention “cons”. I like it the image–that even though you consider us dumb, intellectual low-lifes (but without any basis at all for saying so), like gum on your shoe–of you constantly bending down to scrape it off. There’s something both funny and sadly neurotic about your mental limping.

Be my guest to blame us “cons” or everyone in the world outside of the White House for every problem in your life. You just can’t stop doing it, though, outloud, whether anyone is reading, listening or no.

Obama and self deprecating humor? I’ve never seen an ounce of it from Obama. I can’t imagine him having the humility to poke fun at his own self. Too much arrogance and hubris. Al Gore is a whole different story. He was pretty funny when he poked fun at himself. Reagan too. But I’ve never seen it from Obama. The closest I saw too it was when someone asked him about how many points he usally scores in a b-ball game and his reply was that he was an assist man.

Headline (CNN): “Obama to offer help for students buried in debt”

“The White House announced on Tuesday two new measures the Department of Education will start offering in January to help college graduates climb out of their student loan debt hole.

One of the proposals would push up the start date for more favorable terms on a special loan repayment program based on income, said White House domestic policy adviser Melody Barnes. Another measure would encourage graduates with two or more different kinds of federal loans to consolidate them and get a small break on interest rates.”

AmVet,

I actually have read some things from media matters that I found to be credible so I won’t completely box myself in. Sheesh- You read Newsmax? I don’t even read that. I view it with the same suspicion as I do media matters. Some of the articles in both may be true but what is and isn’t true is too much to go through to try and decipher.

I watch faux news, CNN, and tune in to the network news several times a week. The network news I kinda switch up a bit but I find Diane Sawyer at ABC so blatantly left wing that I automatically discount much of what she says. What did it for me was when the tornadoes hit Tuscaloosa and Joplin and Sawyer was fuming and implying that there had to be an obvious connection between some random but deadly tornados and global warming. She even tried to browbeat the meterologist into going along with a linkage between the 2. I couldn’t believe what I was watching. The meterologist had a shocked look on his face that she believed this and was trying to get him to agree with it but he politely dismissed your theory in a gentlemanly manner.

That one in Japan I think was built in 72 or 1982. Interesting story about it. 2 American engineers walked off the job decades ago citing a faulty design structure and stating the plant would be unsafe in the event of an earthquake but if I remember correctly they disapproved of the plant design regardless of a quake or tsunami event. But that site not only was poorly built but had the misfortune of being built in a zone where it never should have been built due to tsunami and quake concerns. But even then outside of Chernobyl the safety record of nuke power worldwide is very good.

The choice in the shorter and intermediate term is very simple. Burn fossil fuels or go nuke which does create radioactive waste but that waste can easily be stored away. If the French who are very green can get 80% of their power from nukes which is clean and have plenty of space to safely store the waste then there is no reason why we can’t do the same. No reason whatsoever. We do it allready after all and get 20% of our power from nukes. WIth that I am outta here.

Why anyone would ever want to be or remain a Border Patrol Agent is beyond me. This is out of control ………………. !

Headline: “U.S. border agent jailed for improper arrest of suspected drug smuggler”

“The allegations against Diaz, 31, a seven-year veteran of the Border Patrol, initially were investigated by Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Office of Professional Responsibility, which cleared the agent of any wrongdoing.

But the Internal Affairs Division at U.S. Customs and Border Protection ruled differently nearly a year later and, ultimately, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Texas brought charges.”

Today he said some tax on millionaires would pay for 400,000 jobs–just $500 from each mill would do this. This figure is for “saved jobs” a number he can fudge–probably already has–and a number that won’t come back to haunt him before he crashes and burns next year anyway.

That said,no reasoned individual can deny that Mitt Romney is much much much closer to Perry, Cain and the others than he is to Obama.

The GOP since the collapse has had exactly ten months of power in the House only, while Obama and the Dems have had two years of absolute control–even a the very rare and unusual filibuster-proof control of the Senate.

No reasonable person can deny that the Republicans had zero power at this time, and no reasonable person can deny that it was Democrats in their state of absolute power, who at that time, voted not to raise taxes–taxes they now claim raising is critical (laughably) for the survival or our national bureaucracy and labor unions….. er, excuse me,…. for the survival of the nation.

Whether or not Samuel Adams helped plan the Boston Tea Party is unknown, but he immediately worked to publicize and defend it.[61] He argued that the Tea Party was not the act of a lawless mob, but was instead a principled protest and the only remaining option the people had to defend their constitutional rights.[62]

While tents and signs are not corporately owned tea…the basics remain the same, this is “a principled protest and the only remaining option the people had to defend their constitutional rights”

There has been a massive pussification of Republicans.

During the “war president’s” reign, it was tragic just how a tiny few of them had ever served in uniform. Service avoiders such as Cheney and the cowardly Saxby ran the Republican show, with a yellow streak a mile long. It was beyond absurd how these gutless little jerks feigned being tough guys.

Now they do it again in another battle.

Millions of Americans are fed up with these p*ssies and their ongoing efforts to destroy the middle class.

The working class Americans who have gotten stomped on for a long time will not lay down like our servile neo-cons, who cannot muster up the courage to even say boo about this untenable situation facing us.

This alone explains the bizarre neo-con anger and fear about those who have.

Sure, they hide behind their little, way-off-base snarkiness about people needing showers and unemployed losers and no message (WTF?!), but it is obvious that this is purely transparent desperation to cover up their own cowardice and utter lack of outrage at those who should be held accountable.

They know that Americans are looking at them and wondering what the hell is the matter with these Republiloons???

They support the banksters???

They want the agents for injustice and inequality to keep on keeping on???

They want the Middle Class workers to just shut up, go home and take more of the same abuse?

I mainly, at that point in time, liked reading books and listening to CDs, and it was the latter that pulled a brick out of my mental wall on this issue. Sonic Youth had a song on their 1992 record Dirty titled “Youth Against Fascism”, and it had the lyric “I believe Anita Hill/Judge will rot in hell” on it. It almost feels like an understatement to say that this lyric blew my mind. A man standing up for a woman—a woman he didn’t know, especially—in a dispute between a man and a woman over sexualized mistreatment? I had never experienced that before, and probably thought of it as simply impossible. Most women treated other women who spoke up about this stuff like pariahs, so the idea of a man calling bulls###, and being so angry about it, was just unbelievable to me. It felt so incredibly subversive. I didn’t want to be caught listening to that lyric. It seemed dirty to suggest that there was any alternative to simply enduring sexual harassment in silence.

[...]“[B]elieving” Anita Hill was such a complex and frankly radical thing to do in the early 90s. It wasn’t just that you were accepting her version of events. Many of her fiercest critics seemed not to deny that the events she described happened, after all. To believe Anita Hill was also to believe that Thomas was wrong to do the things he did. “Youth Against Fascism” made this clear. Thurston Moore didn’t just affirm that he believed that Hill’s testimony was factually accurate. He said that treating a woman like that was so wrong that a man who did such things would “burn in hell”. He said that it was a man’s fault if a man chooses to sexually harass a woman. No one around me was saying those things.

Yes, actions (especially stupid actions) have consequences.

They will keep coming back.

Like the Tea Party of Sam Adams time, they are not afraid and are more than willing to accept the consequences of their actions.

Boo!
