chas, I don’t want America to fail, but I believe that is the direction that she is going…………….and you and your friends blindlessly support the policies that are taking her there………..so which one of us wants America to fail?
Wow! Who’s that in the photo inset with this blog line? I will guess: Seldom seen, Phillip Brownlee, Eagle opinion editor??
Hey, BlueJay,
Notice this article?
http://www.kansas.com/news/featured/story/1008868.html
I used to look down on the ROTC training programs in our public schools until I met one of my son’s friends who leads the program in their school. He takes pride in helping the kids who are in the program. Many kids with behavior problems, kicked out of other schools, have to join up. This leader has been the class president the last 4 years of school and makes straight A’s.
When I ask my son why he can’t be more like this kid, he tells me:
“He has to do good, he’s an illegal.”
I wonder if I sent my kid to school in Mexico…?

You know the film that helped Algore win a Noble…what a joke that was, about as politically correct and stupid as Obama’s.

Steven,
What that program gives kids is discipline, and with discipline self-respect and with self-respect character.

It’s Official: Austin Smashes 155-Year Summer Heat Record
As 100°+ heat persisted through August, it became apparent that south-central Texas was approaching an all-time summer heat record. That trend was confirmed last night when the June-August meteorological summer closed out with a record-smashing average of 88.4° at Austin Mabry, 1.7° above the previous high in one of the longest official records in the U.S. dating back to 1854. The 3 highest average summer temperatures have now been recorded at Austin since 1998. This was also the warmest June-August ever at San Antonio and Del Rio. It was the hottest August on record at Corpus Christi.

Mexico water shortage becomes crisis amid drought
Crops are wilting in the countryside, and the capital’s water shortage has turned dire as Mexico grapples with its worst drought in more than half a century
David I guess the climate doesn’t just stay the same all the time in all places. Hot some places, cold others.
That’s the way it’s been and that’s the way it will stay, paying little attention to the feeble actions and efforts of man.
And..
Australia has just experienced an exceptionally warm August. Almost the entire country experienced above-average temperatures during the month, but the warmth was most extraordinary in the subtropics. Over most of the southern Northern Territory and the southern half of Queensland (away from the coast), maximum temperatures for August were more than 5°C above the long-term average. Maximum temperatures were the highest on record for August over 49% of Australia.
and..
In January 2009 Tasmania recorded highest ever temperatures around 41C. Yet horticulturalists complained of an unusually cool summer with frosts that led to failures of crops like tomatoes, pumpkin and corn. Winter (June, July, August) saw record rainfall at some weather stations.
So that’s why you post your “it’s cold” denier stuff?
Kansas is feeling the effects of the El Nino. It pulls the jet stream south and brings frigid northern weather with it. I got a feeling we’re in for mucho snow this winter. Remote start in the car is a good thing :-)
“But Feinstein, D-Calif., whose post gives her access to sensitive information about the war’s progress, said Sunday that delaying the reinforcements also puts the forces already in Afghanistan at greater risk. She pointed to an Oct. 3 battle in northeastern Afghanistan in which eight U.S. soldiers were killed during an enemy attack on their remote outpost.
“We didn’t have the ability to defend them, and now the base is closing, and effectively we’re retreating away from it,” she said”
Please call the democrat leadership in Washington; House, Senate, and White House and tell them to BRING THE TROOPS HOME BY XMAS!!!!
Obama and democrats do not have the heart to wage 100% war nor to fight a further ten year war of attrition in Afghanistan. That being the case: BRING THE TROOPS HOME NOW. Obama’s indecisiveness is getting America’s young tropps killed.

“100% war”?
Interesting read.
And if there is this much disagreement, increasingly more at that, why in the world would we start passing ‘cap and tax’ laws that harm the economy and increase costs.
“This headline may come as a bit of a surprise, so too might that fact that the warmest year recorded globally was not in 2008 or 2007, but in 1998.
But it is true. For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures.
And our climate models did not forecast it, even though man-made carbon dioxide, the gas thought to be responsible for warming our planet, has continued to rise.
So what on Earth is going on?
Climate change sceptics, who passionately and consistently argue that man’s influence on our climate is overstated, say they saw it coming.”

Random Thoughts On The Difference Between Us And Them
If a conservative doesnt like guns, they dont buy one. If a liberal doesnt like guns, then no one should have one.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, they dont eat meat. If a liberal is, they want to ban all meat products for everyone.
If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy. A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.
If a conservative is homosexual, they quietly enjoy their life. If a liberal is homosexual, they loudly demand legislated respect.
If a black man or Hispanic is conservative, they see themselves as independently successful. Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.
If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.
If a conservative doesnt like a talk show host, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they dont like be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesnt go to church. A liberal wants any mention of God or religion silenced.
If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. A liberal demands that his neighbors pay for his.

“DavidB” notes –
“Mob guys have known that for years…”
Here’s a fun read from the library or Amazon’s used-book service:
Jimmy Breslin’s “The Gang that Couldn’t Shoot Straight.”
It was made into a so-so movie and a lot of later films have portrayed the inner-absurdities of being a Mafioso. But one of the funniest scenes is how the Mafia hit-man sits on the floor and covers his ears after he forces his wife to go out and start his car for him.
The car never exploded, of course. Which ticked off his wife who had to go out in the middle of winter to start his car… because he was held in such low-regard he’d never be worth a car-bomb.
There’s a metaphor here, it seems, with some of the CONS who contribute to WE Blog. They (figuratively, of course) sit down on the kitchen floor and hold their hands over their ears expecting the explosion on the drive-way. Kid’s might learn evolution. Gays might marry. Iran might get the bomb. “Mezkins” might get sick. A 12-year-old might get pregnant….
“As the world focused on President Barack Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, a small group of determined scientists gathered in a Senate office building to present evidence backing their claim that climate change is caused not by man but by nature, and that carbon dioxide is not a pollutant but the hope for a greener planet.”
The scientists said they were on Capitol Hill to challenge the president’s claims and show that Mother Nature controls climate around the world and that CO2 in the atmosphere benefits people, plants and animals.
“Nature, not human activity rules the planet,” said Fred Singer, an atmospheric and space physicist and research professor at George Mason University and professor emeritus of environmental science at the University of Virginia. “And once you’ve decided that on the basis of evidence, then everything else falls into place”
Bbbbbbb-but that would mean there is no logical reason I mean excuse to create a new revenue source for the bloated government to spend?

If a bunch of people die from eating tainted meat, conservatives pass laws to protect cows.

I’m not amazed that Mo is so gullible to think that a eleven year decline and probable 30 year, is a “plateau”. Plateaus are flat, but when you use pre algraba logic, you’ll believe anything Algore says.
“To confuse the issue even further, last month Mojib Latif, a member of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) says that we may indeed be in a period of cooling worldwide temperatures that could last another 10-20 years.”

“Which leads to my second proposition: Facing the choice of whether to maintain our dominance or to gradually, deliberately, willingly, and indeed relievedly give it up, we are currently on a course towards the latter. The current liberal ascendancy in the United States–controlling the executive and both houses of Congress, dominating the media and elite culture–has set us on a course for decline. And this is true for both foreign and domestic policies. Indeed, they work synergistically to ensure that outcome.”

Illegal aliens can serve in our military. If they are killed in Iraq or other country they are given citizenship and buried. Citizenship doesn’t do them much good if they are dead, does it?

The noble Nobel group have awarded their prizes to 5 women this year, something never done before.

DavidB, why don’t you reference your source?
It must be the leftwing blog CapitalClimate. The blog is now attacking the BBC for their story, “What happened to global warming?” They label scientists who disagree with AGW as being “anti science”.
The blog touts forecast predictions and ignors actual observations. Talk about “anti science”.
AGW is not determined by weather forecasts.
Chas, so you agree. DavidB’s post does nothing to debunk the BBC story.
“Illegal aliens can serve in our military.”
“Illegal”? Since when?
Energy crisis is postponed as new gas rescues the world
Engineers have performed their magic once again. The world is not going to run short of energy as soon as feared.
“The common wisdom was that unconventional gas was too difficult, too expensive and too demanding,” he said, according to Petroleum Economist. “This has changed. If we ever doubted that gas was the fuel of the future – in many ways there’s the answer.”
The breakthrough has been to combine 3-D seismic imaging with new technologies to free “tight gas” by smashing rocks, known as hydro-fracturing or “fracking” in the trade.
The US is leading the charge. Operations in Pennsylvania and Texas have already been sufficient to cut US imports of liquefied natural gas (LGN) from Trinidad and Qatar to almost nil, with knock-on effects for the global gas market – and crude oil. It is one reason why spot prices for some LNG deliveries have dropped to 50pc of pipeline contracts.

“During the season, warmer-than-average temperatures engulfed much of the planet’s surface,” the center wrote in an online report. One exception to the warmth was the north-central USA and central Canada, which had an unusually cool summer due to a persistent trough of low pressure that kept the area cloudy and cool.

California this year experienced its warmest temperatures for the month of September in 25 years, as above-average temperatures were registered in the West and across the entire nation for the month, federal weather officials said Friday.
The average California temperature for September was 73.3 degrees, matching the level of warmth experienced in September 1984, said officials at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. LATIMES
——
Summer temperatures for the globe’s ocean surface ranked as the warmest on record, according to a report released Wednesday by the National Climatic Data Center.
Overall, when the Earth’s land areas and oceans are included together, the three-month June-August period measured as the third-warmest summer on record. Global climate records go back to 1880.

What really jumped out at Arndt, he says, was the heat in the Southern Hemisphere. “The warmth in Australia and South America in August was striking,” he says. “Land areas in the Southern Hemisphere in August broke their previous record by a large amount.”
Overall, it was the second-warmest winter on record in the Southern Hemisphere. (June-August is winter in the Southern Hemisphere.)
Additionally, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, Arctic sea ice covered an average of 2.42 million square miles during August. This is 18.4% below the 1979-2000 average extent and is consistent with a decline of August sea ice extent since 1979. http://www.usatoday.com/weather/climate/2009-09-16-global-summer-temperatures_N.htm

“Bigger Savings Seen from Limiting Medical Lawsuits
Friday, October 09, 2009
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar, Associated Press
Washington (AP) – Limits on medical malpractice lawsuits would lead doctors to order up fewer unneeded tests and save taxpayers billions more than previously thought, budget umpires for Congress said Friday in a reversal that puts the issue back in the middle of the health care debate.
The latest analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that government health care programs could save $41 billion over ten years if nationwide limits on jury awards for pain and suffering and other similar curbs were enacted. Those savings are nearly ten times greater than CBO estimated just last year.”

Oh, you did not say “answered” you said “addressed”.
In other words he did not answer, right.
I have yet to see anything you have posted that depicts the court as “Supporting” the film. All I have seen is that the court outlined several lies that must be cleared up before children are forced to watch it.
al-Gore lied in his movie. The court proved that. al-Gore lied when he stated the court “supported” the movie. What the court “supported” was that there were lies in the movie that must be addressed before children are allowed to watch it.

Jim Rogers “Quite Sure” Gold Will Hit $2000, Dollar Will Lose Reserve Status
Posted Oct 12, 2009 09:00am EDT by Aaron Task in
Famed investor Jim Rogers is “quite sure gold will go over $2000 per ounce during this bull market.”
Rogers’ confidence gold will continue to rally stems from a view the U.S. dollar is on its way to losing status as the world’s reserve currency.
“Is it going to happen? Yes,” Rogers says. “I don’t like saying it [and] I’m extremely worried about it but we have to deal with the facts. America is not getting better [and] the dollar is going to be replaced just like pound sterling [was].”
Rogers didn’t offer a timetable
(Pssst…watch the value of the Dollar. No matter how strong Obama SAYS the economy is, the value of the Dollar will tell you the truth about how the World sees the US Economy.)

My bad. You stated that the court ruled in favor of showing the movie:
__________________________________________________________
Even pointing out that the English court ruling favored the showing of An Inconvenient Truth in Schools.
________________________________________________________
Yeah. Still don’t see them showing favor for showing the movie. The opinion states:
In order for the film to be shown, the Government must first amend their Guidance Notes to Teachers to make clear that
1.) The Film is a political work and promotes only one side of the argument.
2.) If teachers present the Film without making this plain they may be in breach of section 406 of the Education Act 1996 and guilty of political indoctrination.
3.) Eleven inaccuracies have to be specifically drawn to the attention of school children.
_________________________________________________________
Yeah, political work. Sounds like they really “favor” showing the movie and support al-Gore’s
alarmismmessage.making an undeserved insult.
And that would be…. ???
The Gore clip was totally misrepresented. As if Gore refused to engage the filmmaker, even though though Gore surely knew who he was. Gore ‘answered.’
The clip is entitled, what “Al Gore does not like questions?” He called on the guy and engaged him, but did not accept a full blown debate in a little Q & A session of limited duration. This just turned into a stunt.
“Apparently Mr. Gore only allows the ‘right kind’ of questions to be asked of him.”?? Nonsense.
Al Gore in the clip: “And the ruling was in favor of showing the film in schools.” and this is true.
David you lost this one. Just gracefully retire and stop making yourself look more obtuse.
Algore isn’t worth sacrificing your integrity for. He made his millions from that film, garnered his prize and has moved on. So should you.

You insulted the Global Warming God – Gore!
Oh nooooo!!!!!!
Gore lied, so sayeth the Court.
Professor Ellen van Wolde, a respected Old Testament scholar and author, claims the first sentence of Genesis “in the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth” is not a true translation of the Hebrew.
She claims she has carried out fresh textual analysis that suggests the writers of the great book never intended to suggest that God created the world — and in fact the Earth was already there when he created humans and animals.

The question asked of Mr. Gore was:
“A judge in the British high court after a lengthy hearing found that there were nine significant errors. This has been shown to children. Do you accept those findings and have you done anything to correct those errors?”
What exactly was Mr. Gore’s answer?
“I’m not going to go through.. .uh… uh…all… all of those.. uh… uh… the ruling was in favor of the movie by the way. And the ruling was in favor of showing the movie in schools.”

“Al Gore has stated, “Tipper and I are devoting 100 percent of the profits from the book and the movie to a new bipartisan educational campaign to further spread the message about global warming. “
“MOSCOW – A top Russian general aimed tough remarks at the U.S. on Monday before Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s visit, reconfirming plans for multiple-warhead missiles and warning Washington that refitting rockets with conventional warheads would raise the risk of nuclear war.
Lt. Gen. Andrei Shvaichenko’s comments quoted by Russian news agencies come as Russia and the United States seek to negotiate a replacement for a 1991 arms control treaty that expires at the end of the year. It is a major element in their efforts to mend relations that were badly strained during the Bush administration.
Clinton is to meet Tuesday with President Dmitry Medvedev and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. Her visit will test Russia’s willingness to cooperate on issues, including arms control and Iran’s nuclear program, in the wake of President Barack Obama’s recent decision to scrap a missile-defense plan that Moscow vehemently opposed.
Shvaichenko’s words appeared designed to remind the U.S. of Russia’s nuclear might and press it to heed Moscow’s concerns.
Shvaichenko, commander of the Strategic Missile Forces, reiterated that Russia will begin deploying RS-24 missiles with multiple warheads in December, the same month that the START I treaty expires.
The U.S. has said the missiles would violate a treaty provision against adding multiple warheads to existing single-warhead missiles, but Russia asserts it is a new missile.
“Putting RS-24 intercontinental ballistic missiles in service will strengthen (Russia’s) combat capabilities,” ITAR-Tass quoted Shvaichenko as saying at the force’s headquarters outside Moscow. He said the first deployment of the missiles would be in the Ivanovo province, northeast of the capital.
Reaching a deal to replace the treaty before it expires would be a strong sign of solidarity after years of acrimony.
But there are no guarantees. Pressing Russia’s position on another prickly issue, Shvaichenko criticized plans aired during the Bush administration to fit some U.S. strategic missiles with conventional non-nuclear warheads, saying the launch of such missiles could provoke a mistaken nuclear strike in retaliation.
A state that detected such a missile heading in its direction “would determine the risk it faced according to a worst-case scenario,” RIA Novosti quoted Shvaichenko as saying – meaning that it would likely respond with nuclear weapons. He said such a shift “would seriously undermine … international security as a whole.”"
It will be interesting to see President Obama’s take on this.

Arctic Sea Ice Not Following Consensus
From the NSIDC, Sea ice reaches it’s annual minimum extent growing by 370,000 square miles over 2007. An area 1 1/2 times the size of Texas. The recovery is 220,000 sq miles above last year alone yet the NSIDC claims below that the scientists don’t consider this a recovery…
All I can say is, be glad you’re not an expert on sea ice. The linear trend is actually closer than the majority of the experts.

Gore climate film’s nine ‘errors’
Al Gore’s film was sent to schools in England, Wales and Scotland
A High Court judge who ruled on whether climate change film, An Inconvenient Truth, could be shown in schools said it contains nine scientific “errors”.
Mr Justice Burton said the government could still send the film to schools – if accompanied by guidance giving the other side of the argument.
He was ruling on an attempt by a Kent school governor to ban the film from secondary schools.
The Oscar-winning film was made by former US Vice-President Al Gore.
Mr Justice Burton said he had no complaint about Gore’s central thesis that climate change was happening and was being driven by emissions from humans. However, the judge said nine statements in the film were not supported by mainstream scientific consensus.
In his final verdict, the judge said the film could be shown as long as updated guidelines were followed.
These say teachers should point out controversial or disputed sections.
Without the guidance, updated after the case was launched, the government would have been breaking the law, the judge said.
The government has sent the film to all secondary schools in England, and the administrations in Wales and Scotland have done the same.
The film won two Oscars.
‘Landmark victory’
Mr Justice Burton told London’s High Court that distributing the film without the guidance to counter its “one-sided” views would breach education laws.
The Department for Children, Schools and Families was not under a duty to forbid the film, provided it was accompanied by the guidance, he said.
“I conclude that the claimant substantially won this case by virtue of my finding that, but for the new guidance note, the film would have been distributed in breach of sections 406 and 407 of the 1996 Education Act”, he said.”
==============================================
Looks like it is pretty darned clear that the Judge said the film could be shown, as long as there is guidance provided with respect to NINE items….
I cant find where Gore lied about anything.
Just more mush for the munchkins…

M4 not a good weapon?
Monday, October 12, 2009; 2:59 AM
WASHINGTON — In the chaos of an early morning assault on a remote U.S. outpost in eastern Afghanistan, Staff Sgt. Erich Phillips’ M4 carbine quit firing as militant forces surrounded the base. The machine gun he grabbed after tossing the rifle aside didn’t work either.
Despite the military’s insistence that they do, a small but vocal number of troops in Afghanistan and Iraq has complained that the standard-issue M4 rifles need too much maintenance and jam at the worst possible times.
“Chas, ‘errors’ is political spin for “lies”.
You should know that since your an expert at it.[Donn]
Perhaps in your feeble minded thought process. This was in England. In England court rulings are not political spin… The court identified nine errors…. Those errors were rectified by guidance for teachers to explain to the students. No political spin there… Gore isnt running for political office in England… And, neither is the judge, IIRC….
Any word from Obama yet on Afghanistan? Still undecided today?

Some say Government requirements to produce certain legal documents in English and Spanish are very costly to business, and waste time, and inconvenient. While there is some cost involved, and it does take some time to translate documents, I believe that if America is to be a United and Inclusive country, we must begin the process now, through the use of common languages.
Certainly, a Liberal American newspaper like the Wichita Eagle would be supportive of this, by designing their Blogs to be inclusive for all.
Unos dicen que las exigencias del Gobierno para producir ciertos documentos legales en inglés y español son muy costosas a negocio, y tiempo de desecho, e inoportunas. Mientras hay algún coste implicado, y esto toma realmente algún tiempo para traducir documentos, creo que si América debe ser un país Unido y Global, debemos comenzar el proceso ahora, por el uso de lenguas comunes.
Seguramente, un periódico americano Liberal como el Águila Wichita sería soportante de este, diseñando su Blogs para ser global para todos.

david reminds us for the umpteenth millionth time.
Chas,
The real problem with investing in gold is that when you buy it, you pay a smelting fee (sometimes as high as 20% over spot price), and when you sell it, you also pay the smelting fee. The spot price has to increase phenomenally to break even, let alone make a profit. And it’s a market that has real problems with fraud. Besides, gold being a material that has very few uses other than hopefully being valuable, there is nothing except market psychology to stabilize the price. People who invest more than they can afford to lose in gold are playing with fire.

Obviously, you don’t have that experience in ensuring documents are created in multiple languages, in multiple states, for review by multiple attorneys and multiple employees for multiple customers or you wouldn’t hold that opinion.

When did the ‘Gold(Au) market’ crash last?
Personally I’ve been buying gold for over a year. It’s not an investment, it’s a hedge. It will never be worth nothing.
It’s a hedge because it is an accurate barometer of the worth of the dollar. It’s not an investment because you never make anything on gold if you take inflation into consideration.
You can make money on the commodities market with gold but you also can lose.
Wish it away, Chas, wish it away.

Jed gives us typical lib economics.
“Besides, gold being a material that has very few uses other than hopefully being valuable, there is nothing except market psychology to stabilize the price.”
A quick google search shows us gold is used in computers, denistry, electronics, medicine, jewelry and coins. It can also be bought as futures contracts, options, stocks and mutual funds. Governments also buy and sell gold to stabalize the price.

“The film also earned $49 million at the box office worldwide,” – wiki
Then theres the Nobel Peace prize proceeds for the movie. He may have “donated” the money, but it is no more that a reinvestement for his carbon trading scheme.
Well, I guess the Blog Goons have taken the Blog into the nether regions for another day… SSDD…. how pathetic….
Donn… Gore donated his profits from his film to an educational institute… NOT to carbon whatevers you are pizzing and moaning about….
But also remember that Nixon destroyed anything that remained of actual value in our dollar when he took us completely off of the bi-metal standard. Roosevelt first stole it, then Nixon (bi-partison like) killed it completely. And they did all of this by “executive order”, without any of our consent.
Article 1 Section 10 of the US Constitution told us what was to be money and ONLY to be money.
But, like everything else in this country, we were spoiled brats and thought that, “we knew better, we’re smarter”.
The rest of the world knows more about us than we do.
cosMO proves that libs like to give other poeples money away. He claims that Algore didn’t make millions from AIT but gave millions to support his carbon trading scheme.
Donnyboy,
Your google search leaves a lot to be desired. Dentistry is not a major consumer of gold. You can still request a gold crown, but the vast majority are made of non-precious alloys these days. Gold pretty much priced itself out of the dental market back in the late ’70’s. Electronics and medicine use gold in such infinitesimal amounts that they constitute almost none of the market. Jewelry and coins are the heavy markets, and are probably the only reason gold still has value. The jewelry market is heavily influenced by fashion- not a particularly stable thing to invest your retirement fund in, and an even more expensive form than bullion, and less marketable for gold content. Only a few countries still issue gold coins, pretty much as novelties as the world gold supply is far too small to base its economy on. It all boils down to gold being worth only as much as a buyer is willing to pay, and as a luxury item, it can fall with the economy. Given the high fees charged to buy and sell it, small amounts of gold make a bad investment. Now if you have a few million or so you can afford to play around with, it can be fun. We can always use more fun. Your chances of making a profit are about the same as in Vegas.
It’s cool that Mr. Gore is so seperated from all of those evil Goldman Sachs/banker/thieves.

Suckas!
Good luck Jed, you’re full of grand ideas and knowledge.
If not gold, then all of us dummies should be investing in prisons.
Pleef,
“But also remember that Nixon destroyed anything that remained of actual value in our dollar when he took us completely off of the bi-metal standard.”
Try to remember that gold has exactly the same valuation system as paper dollars. It’s only worth what buyers think its worth at any given moment. The only thing that has real value in the world is a ham sandwich.
Chas didn’t finish his sentence.
“Gore donated his profits from his film to an educational institute….” TO FURTHER SPREAD THE MESSAGE ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING. How “Inconvenient” of you to omit that Chas.
This will promote cap and tax legislation which in turn means billions in profits for his carbon trading scheme.
Da_mn you’re dumb!!! Did they teach you to omit the truth to promote a lie in seminary school?
The only thing that has real value in the world is a ham sandwich.
===============================
Good luck buying that sandwich with a hand full of sand.

Pleef,
I’ve spent the last 50yrs making and selling items made of precious metals. Personally, I like gold. It’s one of the most delicious and forgiving materials you can work, and it’s gorgeous stuff, especially high karat golds. And I would be in hog heaven if it fell to a buck an ounce and stayed there, so I could make some really large pieces!

Donn, I’m afraid you’re the one having reading comprehension problems… You keep adding things to clearly stated things, that simply arent there…
AGAIN… PROVE that Gore’s film profits donations are going to HIS personal profits… PROVE IT, idiot…. and if you cant PROVE it, at least have the human dignity to stop LYING about it!!!
I swear ya just cant fix STUPID CONS….

LMAO!!!
Jed, My gold stock investments have quadrupled over the last 12 years and I didn’t invest millions only a thousands.
Your statement: “there is nothing except market psychology to stabilize the price” doesn’t hold water because governments buy and sell it to stabalize it’s price.
Ham sandwiches will rot in a few days and a gold piece will be here for thousands of years. That’s why it’s a precious metal.
“Unlike other investments, gold has never been worth zero”. It has been a safe haven for thousands of years. Ham sandwiches… not so much.
Ant,
“Good luck buying that sandwich with a hand full of sand.”
Sand is primarily silicon dioxide. Silicon is used in computer chips, CCD’s solar panels and silicone compounds. The demand is rising daily, and it’s in much more stable a demand than trinkets. It’s actually worth that ham sandwich!
You’re right Jed, food and water are the only two things that are universally accepted as valuable. That’s why I have thousands of heirloom seeds and the wherewithall and know-how to grow them. Also my solar generator and water purification. I should be all set. And I’ll be able to protect them with the monster load of ammo that I bought years ago.
All of the everday crap that everyone takes for granted, yeah, I got that stuff too.
Good stuff.
It’s actually worth that ham sandwich!
========================
Really?
What can I get if I take a 5 gallon bucket of sand to the bank?
BTW Jed,
What is an ounce of sand going for these days?
This is like Dumb and Dumber.
Scary thing is the same people with the mindset of Chas and Jed are running the country right now.
Sand is primarily silicon dioxide. Silicon is used in computer chips, CCD’s solar panels and silicone compounds.
===========================
Interesting.
Why isn’t Saudi Arabia big in the computer chip business?
Donnyboy,
“Your statement: “there is nothing except market psychology to stabilize the price” doesn’t hold water because governments buy and sell it to stabalize it’s price.”
Your argument doesn’t hold water because that’s still psychology. Trading gold back and forth does nothing to the gold that could increase its actual value. And the trick is to eat your ham sandwich before it rots, and to learn to spell “stabilize” before someone corrects you!
Chas, I’ll prove you’re a liar and an idiot.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/An_Inconvenient_Truth
“Al Gore has stated, “Tipper and I are devoting 100 percent of the profits from the book and the movie to a new bipartisan educational campaign to further spread the message about global warming. “
I know you may be too stupid to know that if you use money to advertise or campaign or promote a cause that It might eventually make your investments explode. Have you ever heard of such a thing? Keep playing stupid, it suits you fine.

Jed, where did you study economics? The school of Marxism? Ever hear of supply and demand? Psycholgy, as you sugguest, isn’t the only thing that moves the market no matter how well you spell.
FYI: The USSR went bankrupt using only psychology to run it’s economy.
Donny boy… IF I give a donation to a campaign for educational purposes, and that donation earns that campaign for educational purposes, that earned income is not MY money anymore…. Who CARES what Gore’s donation makes, after he has made it… It STILL isnt his money anymore!!!
And you call me stupid??? Donny, you’re a huge major JOKE on this Blog….
23% of Americans plan to donate money for breast cancer research. But what these donors may not understand is that the Komen for the Cure organization has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to Planned Parenthood abortion mills, obviously planning to donate more money which will promote more abortions, and that abortion is a major risk factor for breast cancer.
Under proposed new health care legislation, Planned Parenthood further plans to establish new in-school clinics to refer schoolgirls for abortions, paid for by taxpayers, without parental notification or consent. Abortion of a young girl’s first pregnancy causes a particularly high risk of later breast cancer.

Georgia abortionist quack Daniel E. McBrayer, 58, stuck a woman in the face in front of her two young children in a traffic incident Monday, and was charged with battery. The victim claimed he had cut her off nearly causing an accident, and later when she was stopped at a red light, he left his vehicle, approached the driver’s window, and struck her. The dangerous quack only turned himself in to police after he learned that the victim managed to take down his license number before going for medical treatment.
McBrayer was disciplined by the Composite State Board of Medical Examiners in 2001 for committing illegal second-trimester abortions at his Marietta, GA office, placing his medical license on probation for 2 years.

Elyse J. Mamino, of Belleville, IL pleaded guilty Friday to attempted murder and was sentenced by Judge Richard Aguirre to merely the minimum of six years in prison, for attempting to drown her newborn daughter Victoria in a toilet in Columbia, IL last year.
Mamino also gave birth in a toilet in St. Clair County in 2007, but that infant was found dead and decomposed earlier this year in a chest of drawers in the basement of Mamino’s Belleville apartment. No murder or abuse of a corpse charge is yet filed in that infant’s death.

Patrick McCabe Sr. refused to call for emergency assistance after his teenage daughter gave birth on a toilet at the family’s North Plainfield, NJ home in 2005, and the infant later died. Mr. McCabe has been sentenced to 5 years, after pleading guilty to manslaughter rather than the murder charge previously filed against him.

“The greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a direct war, a direct killing – direct murder by the mother herself.”

Donny you are SO BLIND to reality that you will do practically ANYthing you can think of to make Gore, or Obama, or any other progressive look bad, no matter how many LIES you have to invent to do it!!!
Such a pathetic JOKE you are… and your goon friends right along with you… One day, it will be YOU and your kind standing on street corners with your hands out for your needs…. needs that you have wasted away with stupid investments, and lies…. I HOPE some passerby will at least be kind enough to give you a DONATION so you can get food… and shelter… and clothing….
So in this corner we have a liberal that is saying the oldest recognized form of currency on the planet is virtually worthless…no wonder they hate capitalism they have no understanding of trade.
And in the other corner we have a liberal that doesn’t see a conflict of interest in someone giving money to a campaign that will directly benefit a company the same someone owns.
Chas, to quote your earlier post my friend, SSDD.
Forget it chas your feeble mind is too underdeveloped to understand anything more complicated than your ABC’s.
Investing is something you have or ever will understand. But you keep on bowing down to your socialist gods.
You are now known as chaz the spaz. Joke’s on you spaz.

“One day, it will be YOU and your kind standing on street corners with your hands out for your needs…. needs that you have wasted away”
That sounds like the “kind” you and “your kind” want to give everything me and my kind have worked for. Fact is my kind are self supporting and your kind are the ones “on street corners with your hands out for your needs…. needs that (they) have wasted away” because of your kind.
But Daniel, Shrub kept those viet cong from invading the Alamo… LOL
Dont know what “kind” you’re talking about… My kind have been working for years, and still giving what we can to those standing on street corners… And those on street corners, are often those who have been too greedy to take care of what they have…
My kind are not so self-engulfed that we are afraid to sell what we have, and give to the poor… We recognize that MANY good well meaning folks are only about two or three paychecks from homelessness… no matter how much AU they might have had at one time or another… Beware your gold, lest it consume you out of house and home…. GREED hurts… GREED kills… Please remember that before it is too late for you…
I dont like to see ANYbody in that predicament, even if it is somebody who disagrees with me on many things…
Good luck with your egotistical greed management…
WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, April 15) — In a 34-page 1997 federal tax return, Vice President Al Gore and wife Tipper reported giving $353 to charity, an amount much lower than donations the family has made in previous tax cycles.
http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/04/15/gore.taxes/
But Algore give millions to his church of AWG because he gets possible return on his donation a.k.a investment.
Chas, How many people did those “donations” feed, clothe or house. Education is for the most part free.
donndublin,
Actually, it’s the people who paid to see/read Al Gore’s AIT who helped pay for a “new bipartisan educational campaign to further spread the message about global warming.”
Donnie, come on, now, dunderhead… You cannot DONATE to your own investment… You arent really THAT stupid, or are you???
“But Daniel, Shrub kept those viet cong from invading the Alamo… LOL”
And you served where?
I’m waiting for your PROOF Donn, that Gore has had any “return” on his DONATIONS…. Since I havent seen any PROOF of your allegation, I must conclude you are blowing smoke out your butt…
Terrorists are going stronger by the month while we sit by and wring our hands.
http://news.moneycentral.msn.com/provider/providerarticle.aspx?feed=AP&date=20091012&id=10484848
And of course, that would mean you are merely Trolling… cause you got no substance… Thus, no more kool-aid for you tonight…
“Taliban are in much stronger financial shape than al-Qaida and rely on a wide range of criminal activities to pay for attacks on U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan, a senior Treasury Department official said Monday.
David Cohen, the department’s assistant secretary for terrorist financing, said the extremist group extorts money from poppy farmers and heroin traffickers involved in Afghanistan’s booming drug trade.” [From George's link]
Interesting George… poppy farmers and heroin traffickers… I remember posting something to that effect recently, and your side of the aisle said I was wrong… NOW, your own link supports what I have been saying for a lot of years now…
Chas,
donndublin has to attack Al Gore, since he (donndublin) cannot refute AGW science. donndublin’s other tactics are all as weak as his strawman attacks on Gore. . . the 1998 fallacy, the PDO claims, GCR’s, etc.
I see Obama’s people threw the gays under the bus again. Perhaps it is time for us on the left to yank our support of him.
I noticed Hartman arena dude made quite a nasty statement about the gays yesterday. Looks like that’s two venues down in Wichita I won’t ever go to.
Surprise, surprise. The proposed health bills will not control cost. So tell me again how there will be a reduction in the deficit? Maybe it is the fuzzy new math I am having trouble understanding.
“Current Health Care Legislation Will Not Control Medical Costs, Experts Warn”
http://prescriptions.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/12/current-health-care-legislation-will-not-control-medical-costs-experts-warn/?nl=us&emc=politicsemailema1
“Financial disclosure documents released before the 2000 election put the Gore family’s net worth at $1 million to $2 million. After years of public service–and four kids needing high-priced educations–Al and Tipper used to fret occasionally about money. Not anymore. They have a new multimillion-dollar home in a tony section of Nashville and a family home in Virginia, and have recently bought a multimillion-dollar condo at the St. Regis condo/hotel in San Francisco. Available data indicate a net worth well in excess of $100 million.”
Cosmos tell me what happened to the Gores between the first election and now. Oh thats right it was the GW scare, a propoganda movie, a prize and lots of suckers that were more than willing to spread his propoganda everyday.

PMama, didnt I hear Obama say he is going to END “Dont ask… Don’t tell?” I thought that was a good thing… Sounded to me like he WANTS gays to be able to serve openly in the military…
Congress has to pass the law to repeal Don’t Ask… Obama cannot do it on his own. Congress has been busy…
Donnyboy,
“Jed, where did you study economics? The school of Marxism? Ever hear of supply and demand? Psycholgy, as you sugguest, isn’t the only thing that moves the market no matter how well you spell.

You might try actually reading my posts. It would save you a lot of flailing around.
Ahhhh ok David… Cause I was sure I heard him say he wanted it ended
“Congress has to pass the law to repeal Don’t Ask… Obama cannot do it on his own. Congress has been busy…”
So why doesn’t Obama just tell Congress to rush it through? Obama had no problem telling Congress to rush through the biggest spending bill in American History. Obama had no problem telling Congress to rush through healthcare.
So I guess Obama really doesn’t care about the gays.
That’s the only conclusion I can come up with.
Tan porqué doesn’ ¿t Obama apenas dice al congreso pasarlo como un rayo? Obama no tenía ninguÌn problema el decir del congreso acometer a través de la cuenta más grande del gasto en historia americana. Obama no tenía ninguÌn problema el decir del congreso acometer con cuidado médico. Conjeturo tan Obama realmente doesn’ cuidado de t sobre los gays. That’ s la única conclusión puedo subir con.

Poor old okobserver is very slow, and/or confused.
She doesn’t realize that she’s supposed to prove her false claim that Al Gore made “millions” from AIT — not ask questions, and not throw out a bunch of vague innuendo.
How long will it take okobserver to provide proof of her false claim that Al Gore made “millions” from AIT?
And perhaps okobserver will also explain how the Nobel Prize money that Gore gave away became part of his “net worth”?
AmWay, IF you heard his remarks yesterday, you know you are LYING when you say Obama doesnt care about gays… The crowd sure disagreed with your “straw man” caricature.
IMHO, you also project too much… We ALL know you CONS dont care about the gays!!
Surprise, surprise. Big Insurance
Already has the entire Blue Dog Coalition and Senator Baucus in the bag. It’s about time they came out in the open. Last time they tried that the democrats tried to shut them up!
“AmWay, IF you heard his remarks yesterday”
Talk is cheap Chas. Obama is a great talker.
Not much for taking action. But he has pushed Congress when he wanted to.
” We ALL know you CONS dont care about the gays!!”
And I think you over use the term “Straw man”…..
“I will end ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.’ That’s my commitment to you,” Obama said.”
“We should not be punishing patriotic Americans who have stepped forward to serve this country. We should be celebrating their willingness to show such courage and selflessness on behalf of their fellow citizens, especially when we’re fighting two wars,” President Obama told a gathering on Saturday.
The US Army has discharged some 12,000 service men for revealing their sexual orientation.
“AmWay, IF you heard his remarks yesterday…”
More “He said”. Is he already trying for the next Nobel?
Ant,
“Sand is worth more than Gold.”
As I said, a ham sandwich is the only true thing of value. Now, take that gold brick of yours and salt and pepper it, slice an onion over it and roast it at 325 degrees until tender. Get back to me on how it tastes.
Weird.
I live “paycheck to paycheck”. I have never lived any other way. Yet, I want something more and I’m taking advantage of these new circumstances…I have been for the past 6 years. Getting laughed at all the way. I save weekly to be able to buy a 1/10 of an ounce coin. And buy a roll of junk silver every week. I skip out on eating out to do that. I feel no guilt now and will not in 5 years.
“The US Army has discharged some 12,000 service men for revealing their sexual orientation.”
Although it will take an act of Congress to free the gays in the military, Obama as CIC has it within his power NOW to order the military to STOP ALL INVESTIGATIONS into the sexual orientation of it’s members, pending the act of HIS DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED congress.
So what does Obama talk trash but fail to act?
LEBANON, Pa. — A suburban mother who became a voice of the gun-rights movement when she openly carried a loaded pistol to her daughter’s soccer game was fatally shot Wednesday along with her parole-officer husband in an apparent murder-suicide at their home in Pennsylvania Dutch country, authorities said.

Interestingly, more Americans favor tax cuts than healthcare reform:
a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that most voters continue to favor middle class tax cuts over spending more money for health care reform.
Thirty-three percent (33%) of voters say new spending for health care reform is more important. But 54% rate middle class tax cuts as the priority over more health care spending. Thirteen percent (13%) aren’t sure.
These findings are identical to ones just before Congress’ August recess and prior to President Obama’s effort to jump start his health care reform initiative with a nationally televised speech to Congress.
LOL!! And I’d like ice cream over a sharp sick in my eye!
I’ll take the health care reform, please.
Amway,
Of course they do. Everybody wants lower taxes, more more government services from a smaller government, just like they want 50-cents-a-pound T-bones and a good 5 cent cigar and a half-off sale on $20 bills. At some point however, reality will catch up to them. I hope that’s before you cons manage to destroy the country in your never-ending quest for fantasy.
One of my conservative clergy friends visited the WE Blog one day last week… He didnt much like what he saw… from either perspective… SO, he invited me to a Blog that he goes to frequently…
It was most interesting… There were posts from both conservative and liberal perspectives. BUT… it was not permitted to make insulting, or personal attack posts to other bloggers… It was post your opinion, and move on… NO personal smears… NO sexually-based comments… NONE of the crap that happens here DAILY…
It was FUN… I spent several hours on that Blog Friday evening, and again last night… I even had the crazy idea that something like that MIGHT work here…
But, then I thought again… WELL, it might work… if we ALL worked at it… And that includes ME…

That soccer mom is one good reason I’d like to see MMPI’s administered to those seeking gun licenses, and those who fail denied permits. We can get by without having armed crazies running loose. Packing heat at a kid’s soccer match is noticeably over the edge unless you’re living in South America or England. Maybe if she’d been arrested at the time, she’d have been ordered into treatment and she wouldn’t be dead now. But no, the crazies want their guns.

granny,
My team is the one not owned by corporate ventriloquists. Unfortunately that seems to be a vanishingly small minority in Washington and has been for about 200 years. Believe me, if we had the numbers, you’d already have been covered by a national health plan for the last 30 years that you woulld be fighting like hell to hang onto.
Chas I have an idea. Why don’t you lead us by example and maybe the bloggers will all follow your lead.
“At some point however, reality will catch up to them. I hope that’s before you cons manage to destroy the country in your never-ending quest for fantasy.”
Actually that would include libs in the numbers who favor a tax cut over healthcare reform. And you can go ahead and keep on living in a fantasy world if you want to, but most of us do not need healthcare reform.
I know, I know, you KNOW what is BEST for all of us.
But somehow I don’t think that’s what the rest of us want.
“Why don’t you lead us by example and maybe the bloggers will all follow your lead.”
Mission Impossible.
Well Jed what is holding your team back?
Maybe if the word compromise was in your vocabulary we would have a healthcare plan. Unfortunately the libs led by Obama say ‘we won’t compromise’. The moderates are saying we can’t afford the whole enchilada right now. The conservatives are saying we want some safeguards in the form of hard legislation.
Somewhere in there is a healthcare plan we all can live with.
What is your team waiting for?
“Why don’t you lead us”
ROTFLMAO! What a pretend preacher L-E-A-D?

Subpoenas issued in probe of ex-Interior secretary…
A grand jury investigates whether Gale Norton broke federal laws in overseeing a process that awarded lucrative leases to Shell, which later hired her. Prosecutors will review company records.
Reporting from Washington – A federal grand jury has subpoenaed records from Royal Dutch Shell PLC as part of a Justice Department investigation into corruption allegations against former Interior Secretary Gale A. Norton, according to sources close to the investigation.
The subpoenas and the inclusion of a grand jury are signs of escalation in the investigation, which focuses on whether Norton violated a federal law barring government officials from overseeing any process that could financially benefit a company that the official is negotiating with for future employment.
Investigators are also examining whether Norton broke a broader federal law that bars government officials from denying “honest services” — violating the public trust by, for example, steering government business to favored firms or friends.

David I am really proud of this justice dept. Now when they have finished with this investigation maybe they can look at Diane Feinsteins husbands million in ‘no bid’ contracts awarded while she was head of the committee awarding them.
————-
From the Washington Post:
“Senator’s husband cashes in on crisis”
“On the day the new Congress convened this year, Sen. Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation to route $25 billion in taxpayer money to a government agency that had just awarded her husband’s real estate firm a lucrative contract to sell foreclosed properties at compensation rates higher than the industry norms.”
“Mrs. Feinstein’s intervention on behalf of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was unusual: the California Democrat isn’t a member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs with jurisdiction over FDIC; and the agency is supposed to operate from money it raises from bank-paid insurance payments – not direct federal dollars.”
“Documents reviewed by The Washington Times show Mrs. Feinstein first offered Oct. 30 to help the FDIC secure money for its effort to stem the rise of home foreclosures. Her letter was sent just days before the agency determined that CB Richard Ellis Group (CBRE) – the commercial real estate firm that her husband Richard Blum heads as board chairman – had won the competitive bidding for a contract to sell foreclosed properties that FDIC had inherited from failed banks.”
And all the dems can do is go after a past sec of the interior and Haliburton. Meanwhile Feinstein goes about business as usual. Fleecing the taxpayers to line her families pockets. And don’t forget Charlie Rangel.

And of course lets go after Pelosi next.
“House Speaker Pelosi Accused of Earmarking Funds for Husband’s Benefit, Media Mum
By Noel Sheppard (Bio | Archive)
May 8, 2007 – 12:00 ET
If Democrats had accused former House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-Illinois) last year of earmarking funds that could help real estate investments owned by his wife, would the media have reported it?
Probably on the front pages of every newspaper, and as the lead story of all of the evening news programs, right?
Well, the Associated Press published a story Monday about current House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) possibly earmarking funds that would benefit her husband’s investments around the San Francisco Bay. Yet, the media showed virtually no interest (emphasis added):
Republicans are accusing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of including a provision in a water redevelopment bill that could benefit property her husband owns in San Francisco.
Republicans raised the issue more than two weeks after the bill passed the House.
Pelosi’s measure would authorize 25 (m) million dollars to improve San Francisco port areas, and also would put some areas off limits to navigation so cruise ships could dock.
Her investor husband gets rental income from four buildings in a nearby commercial district.
Even though this originally appeared on the AP wire at 4:38 PM EST Monday, it appears that none of the cable or broadcast television networks bothered to share the story with their viewers.
Furthermore, although most newspapers did run the story at their respective websites Monday evening, I have been able to identify only one major print publication that bothered to include this in Tuesday’s edition, the New York Post (emphasis added):
“The appearance is obviously not good, and she needs to be forthcoming about how this impacts her financial interest,” Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas) told The Post.
Pelosi’s office confirmed that she got the provision included in a water-resources bill, which passed the House April 19.
But House financial-disclosure documents reveal that Pelosi’s husband, Paul, owns four commercial real-estate properties near the Embarcadero, which is home to many restaurants and hotels.
The properties earn combined rental income of more than $3 million.
One of the properties is 5,400 feet away from the redevelopment site.”
———–
But wait the justice dept is busy with Norton.
Hypocrites.
granny,
I never once claimed you as MY granny, just an old granny who hasn’t advanced, just aged toward senility.
I’ve advocated a national healthcare plan for the better part of 30 years now, and I’m not about to settle for some meaningless bill that only improves the health of the insurance industry. As more and more of us citizens join the cause, the chances of anything less than full single-payer coverage being acceptable are fading fast. It’s become too important an issue for too many people to be ignored or propagandized or bought off any longer. Industry bucks are buying fewer votes than ever, and we will have a healthcare plan that works or we will have a whole new set of congresspeople to get it done.
Remember, 52.9% of voters voted for Barack Obama.
A Zogby poll found that over half of American’s favor the legalization of pot. Zogby poll: 52% of Americans support legalization of pot:
Voters were asked: “Scarce law enforcement and prison resources, a desire to neutralize drug cartels and the need for new sources of revenue have resurrected the topic of legalizing marijuana. Proponents say it makes sense to tax and regulate the drug while opponents say that legalization would lead marijuana users to use other illegal drugs. Would you favor or oppose the government’s effort to legalize marijuana?
“Obama Stop The Killing, Bring Our Troops Home!”
I’m sorry to say JJ that democrats do not have the balls to stand by their convictions. They will not bring the troops home.
Obama talked a lot of trash during the election to sound like he was pro-defense and to garner votes. He said Afghanistan was job #1. In the spring, he talked tough once again about fighting the war “we are supposed to be fighting”.
Unfortunately, that was all talk.
Oh he will continue to talk trash – about being a tough guy. But reality and the truth are liberals and democrats by a large majority are againt ten more years in Afghanistan.
And that is reality.
So, unfortunately, soldiers will enlist, Marines will sign the line, and they will die in Afghanistan for a few more years, until the college campus’ across America errupt with protest. Until libs cannot stand their own stink.
And they will die in vain.
Amway,
Haven’t smoked the stuff for over 25 years, but I’m still in favor of legalization. No sense throwing good billions after bad in a war that was lost before it even started. Legalize it, tax it (but not enough that illegal dealers can still make a profit off it) and sell it in liquor stores. Give the drunks an alternative!
I don’t care if you legalize it either. My grow lights are all dedicated to tomato and pepper plants anyway.
Amway,
If you’ll recall, just withdrawing and forgetting our promises to the people was how we got into this Afghanistan mess to begin with. Wars are never as easy to get out of as they are to get into, which is what I’ve been saying for the last 8 years now. Remember how long it took your friend Nixon to get us out of Vietnam with only half our honor intact? And you want Obama to do it in just 7 months? You wishful thinker, you!
Jeddee it is a good sign that you have fessed up to your ‘granny fixation’. It probably goes all the way back to your childhood. A good psychiatrist could probably cure you.
With your vast knowledge of everything from how much it cost to produce medical equipment to how much money hospital markup their services that should be a snap for you.
Good luck with your search.

2 Minnesota service members killed in Afghanistan
By STEVE KARNOWSKI Associated Press Writer , The Associated Press – MINNEAPOLIS
A Marine and an Army National Guard soldier from Minnesota have died in combat in Afghanistan, relatives and the Department of Defense said Monday.
Marine Staff Sgt. Aaron J. Taylor, 27, was killed Friday by an improvised explosive device while on foot patrol in Helmand province, said his father, Clifford Taylor, of rural Two Harbors.
Minnesota National Guard Spc. George W. Cauley, 24, of Walker, died Saturday after being wounded when insurgents attacked his vehicle with an improvised explosive device Wednesday in Helmand province, according to the Defense Department.
Clifford Taylor said his son was born in Duluth, grew up in Bovey and graduated with honors in 2000 from Greenway High School in Coleraine, where he was a band member and manager for the hockey team.
Aaron Taylor had been in the Marines for eight years and had been in Afghanistan for about six weeks. He also had served a tour of duty in Iraq, his father said. They last spoke a week ago.
“He was telling me that they were doing good things over there,” Clifford Taylor said. “They had built some schools. He was new to the unit when he came on board, but they say that everybody just liked him and they were all glad to work with him. And he was very proud to be serving with this group of men. They all knew their jobs and they were professionals all the way.”
Aaron Taylor was based at Camp Pendleton, Calif., and had recently bought a house in Temecula, Calif., near the base, his father said.
“He had spontaneous wit and was a very caring individual,” Clifford Taylor said of his son. “Very intelligent. His goal was to be promoted to gunnery sergeant before his third enlistment. I think he would have made it. It’s tough to do.”
Aaron Taylor’s body was flown to Dover Air Force base in Delaware on Monday. Funeral arrangements were pending.

Obama gives aid and comfort to the enemy
October 12, 2009
President Obama ’s getting the Nobel Peace Prize practically guarantees that our troops in Afghanistan will continue to get shafted and killed in greater numbers than they would under normal circumstances.
Anybody who doesn’t understand that President Obama is giving aid and comfort to our nation’s enemies in time of war obviously isn’t paying attention.
He has placed our troops in Afghanistan at a deadly disadvantage with his new rules of engagement.
Unless our troops in combat are absolutely certain that no civilians are present, our troops cannot be provided with artillery or air support.
And if any civilians are present or appear on the scene when our troops are engaged in combat with Taliban forces, our troops are required to break contact and retreat.
How would you like to be an American soldier or Marine fighting for your life with restrictions like those in place?

” And you want Obama to do it in just 7 months? You wishful thinker, you!”
I want Obama to be a man of honor and his convictions. If he truly does not believe in pursuing a clear goal in Afghanistan – get us the fuq out. As soon as possible so no more troops are killed.
Quisiera que Obama fuera un hombre de honor y de sus convicciones. Si él no cree verdad en la prosecución de una meta clara en Afganistán – sálganos el fuq. Matan cuanto antes a tan no más de tropas.

And Chas – if it takes those kids on college campus’s across America to shake the “establishment” up. If that is what it takes – so be it.
But I would think that the Pepsi Generation would have grown up and learned that lesson.
Obama had better come up with a DAMN GOOD REASON and clear goals to get Americans behind him in continuing another decade war in Afghanistan. I personally don’t think he or libs have it in them. Hence, please, please bring them all home NOW!!!
AmWay, why dont you figure out some sort of way to pull out all those troops from ALL of the Middle East??? All you do here is rag on it… Day after day after day after day…
Why dont you figure out a plan, and then get hold of a couple of the Congress Critters and explain it to them… not whine to them… explain it to them. MAYbe you can actually help the situation, instead of bi**ing about it on some anonymous Blog in South Central Kansas…

And, hey, AmWay, if you’re only a FOURTH as smart as you think you are, that should be a no-brainer…
Say, Amway, here’s some info on a possible M-16/M-4 replacement, the H & K 416:
Looking for reliability
The key to the 416’s reliability lies in its gas system. It looks like the M4 carbine on the outside, but on the inside, H&K has replaced Colt’s “gas-tube” system with the short-stroke piston system.
This eliminates carbon being blown back into the chamber, which leads to fouling problems, and greatly reduces parts wear created by super-heated gases used to cycle the weapon. The result, experts say, is that the 416 is more reliable, easier to maintain and has a longer parts life than the M4.
“It was a phenomenal gun,” said former Delta member and current H&K consultant Larry Vickers. “In my opinion it has the best gas system on the market for a shoulder-fired autoloading weapon. It’s lightweight, very efficient; it’s clean and has minimal heat transfer.”

Army Will Open Competition for Carbine – As Soon As Congress Passes Budget
By matthew cox, army times
Published: 30 Sep 12:43 EDT (16:43 GMT) Print | Email
Soldiers could have a new carbine by 2012, unless a Congressional budget impasse slows it down.
The Army requested $9.9 million for fiscal 2010, money needed to start the solicitation process for a competition that stands to draw dozens of small arms companies waiting for the chance to unseat the M4 as the Army’s primary soldier weapon.
“Say, Amway, here’s some info on a possible M-16/M-4 replacement, the H & K 416:”
Thanks JJ. I just hope we don’t have another political decision on the best weapons for our troops. I remember the Matel Toy was adopted after a very drunken BBQ with the pentegon/congressional brass and the manufacturer. Just hope it doesn’t happen again.

===========================================
Oh, it is a political decision. And the Democrat Congress is holding things up now since 2007.
Obama can’t make decisions either.
Must be a problem with the Democrats, maybe a koolaide shortage.
Here’s an in-depth look at the Politics of the M16/M4 replacement controversy:
H&K replaced Colt’s “gas-tube” system with a short-strokepiston system that eliminates carbon blow-back into the chamber, andalso reduces the heat problem created by the super-hot gases used tocycle the M4. Other changes were made to the magazine, barrel, et. al.The final product was an M4 with a new upper receiver and magazine, plusH&K’s 4-rail system of standard “Picatinny Rails” on the top, bottom,and both sides for easy addition of anything a Special Operator mightrequire.
In exhaustive tests with the help of Delta Force, the upgraded weaponwas subjected to mud and dust without maintenance, and fired day afterday. Despite this treatment, the rifle showed problems in only 1 of15,000 rounds – fully 3 times the reliability shown by the M4 in US Armystudies.

If you want to be the envy of the neighborhood and work, you might want to consider planting a Sun Gold Hybrid, Sunsugar FT Hybrid, or Sweet Gold FT Hybrid from Tomato Growers Supply. These are bright orange cherry size tomatos. When you bite into them your first thought is you are eating a rare fruit – very sweet. Not Tomato. But they are tomato’s of the highest quality highest in vitamin content than any other. People will be amazed and want more. You cannot buy these in the store. You have to grown them. You cannot buy the plants locally. You have to order the seeds. But these are superb in salads and just snacking (they don’t always make it from the garden to the house).
I could post for hours. The peppers in this catalog are great and most varied I’ve ever seen. But I have to at least mention the Cisineros Tomatillo. I’ve found growing Tomatillo’s difficult and frustrating. Lot’s of work, for little gain. ANd it takes many to put up good salsa and preserves. Anyway, the brand mentioned is a star performer – very productive plant with lot’s of tasty fruit.
Si usted quiere ser la envidia de la vecindad y del trabajo, usted puede ser que quiera considerar plantar un híbrido del oro de Sun, un híbrido de Sunsugar pie, o el híbrido dulce del pie del oro de la fuente de los cultivadores del tomate. Éstos son tomates anaranjados brillantes del tamaño de cereza. Cuando usted muerde en ellos que da fruto su primer pensamiento es usted está comiendo un raro – mismo dulce. No tomate. Pero son tomate del más de alta calidad lo más arriba posible de contenido de la vitamina que cualquier otro. Sorprenderán a la gente y querer más. Usted no puede comprar éstos en el almacén. Usted tiene que crecido les. Usted no puede comprar las plantas localmente. Usted tiene que pedir las semillas. Pero éstos son magníficos en ensaladas y apenas snacking (no lo hacen siempre del jardín a la casa). Podría fijar por horas. Las pimientas en este catálogo son grandes y el más variado he visto nunca. Pero tengo que por lo menos mencionar el Cisineros Tomatillo. He encontrado Tomatillo creciente difícil y frustrando. Porción de trabajo, para poco aumento. Y toma muchos para poner la buenos salsa y cotos. De todas formas, la marca de fábrica mencionada es un ejecutante de la estrella – planta muy productiva con la porción de fruta sabrosa. Conjeturo tan Obama realmente doesn’ cuidado de t sobre los gays. That’ s la única conclusión puedo subir con.

Is that on the Demunderground koolaide talkin points of the day?

Blue Dog Coalition
the group has set a record pace for fundraising this year through its political action committee, surpassing other congressional leadership PACs in collecting more than $1.1 million through June. More than half the money came from the health-care, insurance and financial services industries, marking a notable surge in donations from those sectors compared with earlier years, according to an analysis by the Center for Public Integrity.
A look at career contribution patterns also shows that typical Blue Dogs receive significantly more money — about 25 percent — from the health-care and insurance sectors than other Democrats
Most of the major corporations and trade groups in those sectors are regular contributors to the Blue Dog PAC. They include drugmakers such as Pfizer and Novartis; insurers such as WellPoint and Northwestern Mutual Life; and industry organizations such as America’s Health Insurance Plans. The American Medical Association also has been one of the top contributors to individual Blue Dog members over the past 20 years.
Baucus, a senator from a sparsely populated and conservative Western state who is serving his sixth term, stands out for the rising tide of
health-care contributions to his campaign committee, Friends of Max Baucus, and his political-action committee, Glacier PAC. Baucus collected $3 million from the health and insurance sectors from 2003 to 2008, about 20 percent of the total, data show. Less than 10 percent of the money came from Montana.”
Examples from Baucus’s Glacier PAC include $5,000 from the Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of America and $2,500 from lobbyists with U.S. Strategies, which represents numerous health-care firms. Overall, half of the $110,000 in donations to the PAC from April to June came from health-care firms and lobbyists, including Schering-Plough, Medtronic and New York Life.
Coalición azul del perro el grupo ha fijado un paso de registro para fundraising este año a través de su comité de acción política, sobrepasando la otra dirección del congreso PACs en la recogida de más de $1.1 millones con junio. Más que mitad del dinero vinieron de las industrias del cuidado médico, del seguro y de servicios financieros, marcando una oleada notable en donaciones de esos sectores comparados con años, según un análisis por el centro para la integridad pública. Una mirada en los patrones de la contribución de la carrera también demuestra que los perros azules típicos reciben considerablemente más el dinero — el cerca de 25 por ciento — de los sectores del cuidado médico y de los seguros que otros Democrats La mayor parte de las corporaciones y las asociaciones empresariales principales en esos sectores son contribuidores regulares al perro azul PAC. Incluyen los fabricantes de droga tales como Pfizer y Novartis; aseguradores tales como WellPoint y vida mutua del noroeste; y organizaciones de la industria tales como America’ planes del seguro médico de s. American Medical Association también ha sido uno de los contribuidores superiores a los miembros azules individuales del perro durante los últimos 20 años. Baucus, senador de un estado occidental escaso poblado y conservador que esté sirviendo su sexto término, representa hacia fuera la creciente oleada de contribuciones del cuidado médico a su comité de la campaña, a los amigos de Baucus máximo, y a su comité de la político-acción, glaciar PAC. Baucus recogió $3 millones de la salud y los sectores de los seguros a partir de 2003 a 2008, el cerca de 20 por ciento del total, datos demuestran. El menos de 10 por ciento del dinero vino de Montana.” Ejemplos de Baucus’ el glaciar PAC de s incluye $5.000 de los agentes de seguro y de los corredores independientes de América y $2.500 de cabilderos con estrategias de los E.E.U.U., que representa las firmas numerosas del cuidado médico. Total, la mitad de los $110.000 en donaciones al PAC a partir de abril a junio vino de las firmas y de los cabilderos del cuidado médico, incluyendo Schering-Arado, Medtronic y la vida de Nueva York.
Jimbo,
When Airbus won the tanker contract, it was “buy American” even though it would’ve been built in the US. Now you wanna outfit our troops with a Gerry rifle? Make up yer mind, boy!
Da camptown ladies sing their song,
Doo dah… Doo dah!!!
Free Speech is a Consstitutional Guarantee…
Incitement to riot is just ILLEGAL…
Good Night, you sick twisted freaks!!
Amway,
Dit dit dah dit, dit dit dah, dah dit dah dit, Dah dit dah.
And now that I am ordained, I would like to wish all of you goodnight and God’s richest blessing on you as I depart for the evening.
Remember to not let the sunset upon your wrath. Be thankful in all you have in life.
And pray to God for a brighter tomorrow, when all our nations sons and daughters are home defending our own shores.
Amen, Reverend Way!
Well Jed there are several manufacturers now of short-piston AR rifles, including many in the USA.
Our troops should have the best, regardless of where it is made, but Congress doesn’t care.
Congress won’t get off their a $ $ and authorize the RFP to pick a new rifle and the funds to buy them.

Free Speech is a Consstitutional Guarantee…
Incitement to riot is just ILLEGAL…
=====================================
Really? Show us the law.
The definition should be most telling.
“What do you all think??”
Thanks Chas, but I have no interest in playing nice with not nice people. PARTICULARLY when most of them are “Regular” in another nic.
Oh and Chas, since you claim now to be a legal expert, please describe Peaceful Protest and contrast that with the definition for Inciting a Riot.
Thank you for sharing your expertise.
I suppose those students at Kent State were rioting, and they deserved to be shot, according to Chas – it should be illegal to protest war.
FUGG OFF AND DIE, JOHNSON!!! FOR REAL!!!
It’s OK Jay… I know such a thing cant ever work on WE BLOG… NEVER!!!
Look, there’s one now.
Chas is that really a response one might expect from a Preacher?
I think not.
Chas, you are a fake preacher, admit it. You got your diploma online for 5 cents.
I’ve met Chas “jim”.
Has anyone met you?
Goodnight Rev Way.
It’s a pleasure to read your posts. And your posts contrast sharply with Chas, who obviously is a Phony Preacher.
May God forgive Chas, and have mercy on his soul, and may the peace of the Lord find a way into the hate-filled angry heart of Chas, and bring him peace.
“I have no interest in playing nice with not nice people. PARTICULARLY when most of them are “Regular” in another nic.”
Among those nics are “American way” “ANTI” and “JimJohnson”.
“Chas is that really a response one might expect from a Preacher?
I think not. [Johnson]
You think wrong, Johnson… That is pecisely the response one would expect… no demand… for a preacher to make in response to pure EVIL… Like YOU… Sheet Head!!
It’s really quite sad. If it weren’t so disruptive.
We’ve got “Regular” who lives in his sister’s basement on our dime creating multiple personalities for himself here.
Now when “Regular” came here as “JM” we were told a story of a man who had lost his wife and kid.
Of course, “Regular” has never had a wife or a kid. But everyone forgets that in the blizzard of identities he constructs for himself and this forum.
Mark my words, soon you will see the hypocritical posts from the Phony Preacher about Christmas and his phony wishes & blessings of good cheer.
Remember his foul mouthed, HI-CAPPED, personal attacks posted right here on the Wee Blog, when you read his wishes of glad tidings and joy.
Well see, there it is again “Jim”.
I’ve met Chas. I know several people who have met Chas.
But we have these folks who post here like you and “American way” and “Anti” who nobody seems to have ever met.

I registered. I’m not GOING of course. “American for Prosperity” is “Americans for keeping the rich rich”
I encourage others, register but do not go. Give them an empty theater for their lies.

Punish the “liars” with your lies. And anyone should listen to such twisted logic because….
“littlejohn” is another of ‘Regular’s nics.
Wrong again BLue Jay, but then,you already knew that, didn;t you
All you have to do is prove it “littlejohn”.
How about some money on that BLue jay, or, the person who is wrong stays off this blog.
Come and get it.. Put your money or your time where your mouth is.
How about 100 bucks?
Put up or shut up.
I’m not the unknown here “littlejohn”, you are.
Let’s see what you have.
Just to chime in to reiterate how all the sock-puppet wars get boring.
I really, really don’t care if “Regular”-is-”littlejohns”-was-”Max Grobnik”-is-”JimJohnson”-is-”okobserver….”
They’re all crazy as hoot-owls.
Either put up, or shut up. I am calling you out. Either be a man and back up your mouth, or just go slinking away. Really? I don;t care which.
Since you are so broke, I will offer… WHomever is the liar is banned from the blog. Put up or shutup. BlueJay. TIme to be a man.
“How about some money on that BLue jay, or, the person who is wrong stays off this blog.”
Yeah well “Donndublin” already welched on that one.
I’m established since 2005. And you?
I don;t know, a couple of years. I really don;t know, or care. You called it. You back it up or shut up. Really, I don’t care which. I am tired of your hate filled BS. Be a man and back it up,, or go away with your tail between your legs. Or, In lieu of all that, I will accept an apology.
Idon;t give a crap what Donndubin did or didn;t do. Now, it’s you and me. Back up what you have to say, or just go away.
“Either put up, or shut up. I am calling you out. ”
No, that’s my game.
You mostly fly low “littlejohn”. You will have to make it interesting for me.
Ohwell, I am going to bed. ihave to work tomorrow. Leave your response and i can check it tomorrow.
Sorry, guys.
You’re both coming off looking like wankers.
I am not interested in your display of temper “littlejohn”.
“Or, In lieu of all that, I will accept an apology.”
I’ll invite you to hold your breath.
I bet I won’t be meeting “littlejohn” “American way” “Anti” or “JimJohnson anytime soon.
This is the one bluejay, returning to base.
That’s what I thought. Nothing to back up his mouth. Nothing.
“A group of liberal Democrats has already introduced legislation in the House of Representatives to prohibit funding for any troop increase”
So much for “Afganistan is the right war”
It is time to either move in, and complete the military mission with all possible expediency,or get the hell out. If indeed it is all the things that Presdident Obama said in March, and all those things Candidate Obama stated, then it;’s time to get the job done. If not, admit it, and get the hell out of there. Oneor the other. No half ways

““littlejohn” is another of ‘Regular’s nics”
BlueJay proves he’s a liar. And lying is his mode of operendi.
“You mostly fly low “littlejohn”. You will have to make it interesting for me.”
How about this? One hundred dollars, the loser has to put his real id on this blog, and leaves this blog until January. Interesting enough? Or, how about a straight up bet of $1000.00
