Harleigh

pinkpantheroz

Harleigh

Harleigh

Harleigh

Ad, (. Hey Harleighshudder)

pinkpantheroz

Made a bags of that. Hey, Harleigh

pinkpantheroz

I gots my glittery tu-tu for twerking tonitw. eeeewwwww

Harleigh

hi pink

Harleigh

Back in a few. grabbig a coffee

pinkpantheroz

or sporks

Harleigh

hey all

sillylittleme

twerking sounds like something a twit and a jerk do…

sillylittleme

Sorks are like spooning except with sporkin it involves biting follwed by angry sex. LOL

Harleigh

harleigh – lol

sillylittleme

ad – McCain hasn’t ever heard of the country he wants to attack next

sillylittleme

of course he would, isn’t that what all megalomaniacs do?

sillylittleme

Oh jebus ADLIB.. Mclamebrain would have had us in was in crimea, georgia, iraq, iran, libya, ukraine, afganistan, syria…. he is so whacked.

Harleigh

AL- yep, honest yer honor we were just sporkin around…

Harleigh

ad – isn’t that usually a good enough reason for war?

sillylittleme

As if we could fight russia over there…. puh-leeze

Harleigh

ad – lol

sillylittleme

I’ve been sporkin on the railroad… all the live long day

Harleigh

Hi, Monica!

pinkpantheroz

Hi PPO!!!

monicaangela

Hi MA

sillylittleme

Hi MA

Harleigh

Hello sLm!!

monicaangela

Aw, put a spork in it!

pinkpantheroz

Hey Harleigh

monicaangela

LOL pink

Harleigh

ad – I thought we were all different, like little snowflakes

sillylittleme

Hello AdLib…I’m still reading your article. You are a true genius. I have had to read it several times, I just love it.

monicaangela

Well, we seem to have an ocean of topics this week, Rice, War, Gooddel, BTW who won at the Ravens?

pinkpantheroz

slm…The more different, the more the same we are.

monicaangela

AdLib, credit where credit is due…that’s my motto.

monicaangela

MA – so true!!

sillylittleme

PPO – Ravens slaughtered the Steelers

sillylittleme

Ferguson PD should be the front line!

Harleigh

PPO, do you really think I would participate as a spectator after what has happened this week in the NFL. The news has been so bad it has turned me off where the game is concerned.

monicaangela

thanks, SLM, my cousins in Pittsburgh will be devastated.

pinkpantheroz

Ferguson PD should be on trial.

monicaangela

PPO – I was shocked watching the mess, so out of sync

sillylittleme

MA – they should be sent to take out ISIL

sillylittleme

MA, that may very well happen after the investigation.

pinkpantheroz

slm, I don’t think that would be such a good idea. They would probably wind up joining forces with them like the Sunni’s did.

monicaangela

Looks like next NFL negotiations will be real tricky esp on contract player rules and conduct.

Harleigh

AdLib, I agree…the entire system in Ferguson, and much of the country appears to be corrupt.

monicaangela

Did anyone do anything special for the 9/11 Anniversary?

pinkpantheroz

Ad, I hope it is true. I hope the DoJ does a good job and helps to resolve some of the issues where FPD is concerned.

monicaangela

Most PD’s have gone off the rails in the past 10 – 15 years

Harleigh

Harleigh, I’m sure they’re hoping this will all blow over. Rules? What rules?

monicaangela

Ad, it should now be revised to a One Strike and Out rule.

pinkpantheroz

Hi Glenn

sillylittleme

Good evening Ad, Monica, SLM, Harleigh, and PPO. How goes it with everyone tonight?

glenn

Hi, glenn

pinkpantheroz

MA – most likely they would agree on more than not

sillylittleme

Sorry PPO, I did not do anything special for the 9/11 anniversary. It is a sad moment every time it is mentioned. I only take time to reflect on those that lost their lives that day and pray this won’t happen again.

monicaangela

Hi Glenn

monicaangela

Ad–doing well, SOS, how about you?

glenn

Same here, MA. Very little coverage in Australia.

pinkpantheroz

LOL AL – They must take an in league legal contractual stand that would hold individual players resopnsible for their conduct after the law and those leagalities and trials or whatever.

Harleigh

SLM, I’m sure you are correct. Birds of a feather and all that.

monicaangela

Ad, you are correct. Things happen while we sleep. As I have said before….They came for…and I’m sure you know the rest. Wake up America.

monicaangela

MA – we should take all of those from around the world who want to harm others and put them on an island together

sillylittleme

What’s the topic? I see a little of NFL, a little of 9/11, and what else?

glenn

slm, that I believe would either solve our problem or allow another ISIS to form.. I guess if we made sure they never got off that Island, maybe that could work.

monicaangela

Glenn, pick a topic of your own. I’m sure it will be a good one.

monicaangela

Ad–I believe that’s the point. To keep the readiness to go to war alive.

glenn

MA – no exit off the island since they

sillylittleme

‘d have to build something like a ship together…

sillylittleme

Monica–okay, here’s my question. Will Congress vote to go to war against ISIS, now that the administration has actually come out and said it’s a war

glenn

Ad, you are not alone…at least not as far as I am concerned. I feel the same way you do about this continually repetition of the 9/11 scenes on TV.. Ratings? Psychological brainwashing? I haven’t figured it out yet, but it is morbid to say the least.

monicaangela

Glenn – you mean they haven’t complained that he can

sillylittleme

‘t declare war?

sillylittleme

Glenn, I agree, it appears that is the reason they do it.

monicaangela

SLM, if that’s the case then I say let’s start transporting today.

monicaangela

SLM–I was watching Rachel Maddow tonight and she was talking about how yesterday it was considered an “antiterrorism action”, and today the administration, the SOS. and the Pentagon have all said we are at war with ISIS.

glenn

I wonder when they are going to show all the video recordings from the Pentagon so we know what happened to that aircraft.

Harleigh

SLM, do you really think those types could work together long enough to build a ship? We’d probably be rid of several of them the first day because of disagreements over what the ship would look like.

monicaangela

MA – lots of weaponry when they

sillylittleme

‘re dropped off

sillylittleme

AdLib, I agree with what you are saying about zero tolerance. I believe it is the only way.

monicaangela

Monica–would the disagreements be settled with guns? Who would be the “good guys” with the guns? I guess the ones still left standing.

glenn

Hey Kes

sillylittleme

Hey kids, how’s your weekend starting off tonight?

kesmarn

So now we have Bristol Palin throwing haymakers in a bar room brawl,with Sarah screeching in the background,”Do you know who we are?”Sadly Sarah,we do know you.

beatlex

Hi BeatleX

sillylittleme

Glenn, I believe congress will do whatever those that pay them to go to work tell them to do…By the way, that would not be the citizens of the U.S. they claim to work for. At least not the 99% of us who continually get the shaft.

monicaangela

Hey everyone!

beatlex

B – I thought that was a truly illuminating moment when someone turned to her and told her this wasn’t a fake reality show

sillylittleme

Hey, Beatlex! The White House would have needed a total restoration if the Palin family had ever moved in there. {{shudder}}

kesmarn

slm…weaponry sounds like too much, you know they love toys…lets let them do hand to hand.

monicaangela

Ad–well considering the media drumbeat aboutwhat a threat to the U>S> ISIS is, so that the American people would become so fearful that they would want to do the same thing to ISIS that they perceive ISIS wants to do to the U>S>, then yes.

glenn

MA – most of them would cry uncle at the first fist

sillylittleme

Glenn – of course it should be settled with guns. Nothins more merikan than a good old fashioned gunfight.

Harleigh

Kesmarn,no kidding hey!

beatlex

Sorry Glenn…no guns.

monicaangela

Hello Kes!!

monicaangela

Hey Kes, Hey Beatlex

glenn

Holes in the White House walls, barf in the carpeting…it would cost a fortune to clean up after their Wasilla-billy parties.

kesmarn

Hey, glenn!

kesmarn

Hello BeateX

monicaangela

Kes – not to mention how many plants they would kill pissing in them…

sillylittleme

Monica–ooooh, no guns…then would we have those big brave shirtless men doing hand-to-hand combat? Or knights on steeds? Ooohh, how manly!

glenn

You betcha, slm!

kesmarn

I wonder if the baggers astupid enough to go out and stock up on plastic sheeting and duct tape to secure their trailers for chemical and biological weapons… AGAIN!!! lmao

Harleigh

Hello All

murphthesurf3

hi murph

sillylittleme

Hey Murph!

glenn

Hey, Murph!

kesmarn

Harleigh, no they don’t need to because their homes are all still shrink-wrapped

funksands

SLM, you are correct. I don’t believe there would be too many women there for them to beat up on so we would probably hear a continual “This isn’t Fair.”

monicaangela

Hey, funk!

kesmarn

harleigh – how stupid and the news coverage was hilarious

sillylittleme

LOL funk’

Harleigh

Hey Kes

glenn

Hello Murph

monicaangela

MA –

sillylittleme

Good to be here, AdLib! And yes, we’re opposing ISIS for the sake of the world.

kesmarn

Hi Monica, Murph, Ad, Kes, Silly, X, Glenn etc

funksands

Ad- why won’t the scroll let me go up to the top of the discussion and review it. I can move it up but the moment a new comment pops in down at the bottom of the page.

murphthesurf3

Ad–that’s what I meant by the media beating the drumbeat to make Americans worried that ISIS was going to attack us.

glenn

Glenn, maybe we could do a few videos for you from the scene.

monicaangela

Hi Funksands!!

monicaangela

Murph, that’s either a bug or a feature, depending on how you look at it.

kesmarn

Monica–oooh, please, I may need my fainting couch though!

glenn

I know why Congress does it. They’re bored. Anything to take the focus on the worst-performing professional body on earth (other than the NFL)

funksands

Ad..thanks….makes it hard to catch up. Otherwise I like this forum a lot.

murphthesurf3

I think you can hold the page with the scroll bar

Harleigh

murph, try Safari. It isn’t doing that with me.

funksands

I was truly appalled at Miss Lindsey Graham’s comments about the necessity of more American soldiers going over there to be maimed or killed. What is wrong with him?

kesmarn

Harleigh, you are right

funksands

Harleigh…I tried that but it did not work.

murphthesurf3

Funk- I do everything on Firefox so I am reluctant to rely on Safari.

murphthesurf3

Ad, you can’t get the MSM to listen to anything like what you are saying. Imagine how ratings would go down if they didn’t continue to beat the drum about ISIS. Imagine the fact that they would not be able to earn their living with commercials if they did not keep the public afraid, very afraid. They have a job to do, and by God they are going to do it. The MIC won’t have it any other way.

monicaangela

kes – he is trying to look macho

sillylittleme

murph it works on my laptop… have not tried my iphone

Harleigh

Yeah, what are they going to do? Talk about lost airliners?

funksands

slm

monicaangela

HAHAHA! slm, that is a totally futile endeavor. He needs to give it up.

kesmarn

Glenn….

monicaangela

Harleigh- could be my browser. Not to worry.

murphthesurf3

Glenn…The vapors? You? Okay, be right over with the smelling salts.

monicaangela

gee funk, 13 years ago we lost 4 airliners without a trace right before our eyes!

Harleigh

My favorite quote on Twitter about the drumbeat: From Jeff Sharlett: “I don’t understand,” murmurs the interventionist, as screen fills w/ more & more space invaders. “More I kill, more there are?”

funksands

Funk–the media could talk about what’s happening in the US–you know like Obamacare is working; the deficit is down; unemployment is a point lower now than it was when the shrub left office–you know things like that.

glenn

Boooooorrrring

funksands

Glenn, you’re so right, but that would mean praise for President Obama, and we can’t have that, can we?

pinkpantheroz

Good Sharlett quote, funk!

kesmarn

PPO–Oops, I lost my head. Praise for President Obama? WTH is wrong with me?

glenn

Miss Lindsey is a warmonger Kes….She really loves seeing those young men go off to fight for her, makes her feel real important.

monicaangela

Kes, it does hit the nail on the head doesn’t it?

funksands

Monica–I’m kinda with Miss Lindsey–I do so love a man in uniform!

glenn

Yes, as well-mannered as a mass-murderer wannabe can be, AdLib…

kesmarn

I worry more about teaqaeda and the repubs more than the whole ME.

Harleigh

Harleigh, I think you’ve got your worry priorities right.

kesmarn

Harleigh–I agree. The teaquada and the repubs are more of a threat to our country than any terrorist. They are the very definition of “domestic terrorists”.

glenn

Glenn, I knew it, southern and northern Bells should stick together.

monicaangela

Chicken Hawks are always always looking for the next boogeyman

funksands

Right, Harleigh. at least we know they want to kill us. It’s the sly bastards here who want to bleed us to death slowly and starve us for their profit that is the bigger threat

pinkpantheroz

We might have more to worry about from our own law enforcement people than we do from ISIS.

kesmarn

Spot on Harleigh…lest we forget. We have bigger fish to fry right here in the good ole U.S. of A.

monicaangela

They have done more damage to merika than all the enemies we faced in the last 150 years

Harleigh

You got that right, Kes!

pinkpantheroz

Monica–LOL

glenn

Kes, after reading those articles Kalima placed on the morning blog I’d say you’re absolutely correct.

monicaangela

PPO, if you get a chance check out the 3 part Wash. Post investigation into law enforcement on MB. Scary!

kesmarn

Jinx, Monica! That article was an eye-opener!

kesmarn

Thanks, kes, will do. Is it on the WaPO site?

pinkpantheroz

I’m not sure, PPO. But there is a link to it on Morning Blog…

kesmarn

Oh, OK

pinkpantheroz

Kes, I read it twice, then did some follow up. It’s all true. I had heard about things like that happening but refused to believe it. What a mess this country is in.

monicaangela

If you look back over the last decade of the nazi’s they mostly used local police to supress the population. It worked for the US in central asouth merika too.

Harleigh

Assad still has some chemical weapons,does he not? Maybe America’s military and the President are worried about ISIL getting their hands on them.They would surely use them

beatlex

Right. For those who haven’t seen it, one of the shockers is that if you’re traveling with a lot of cash and the cops stop you. They can take your money and keep it. No questions asked. It’s up to you to prove it’s not drug money.

kesmarn

Beatlex, if you believe the Gummint ( snigger), all chemical weapons are now destroyed, but Assad still has Chlorine, and that’s almost as bad.

pinkpantheroz

Okay, are we at a lull? Oh I guess not. Teacher: “Kids,what does the chicken give you?” Student: “Meat!” Teacher: “Very good! Now what does the pig give you?” Student: “Bacon!” Teacher: “Great! And what does the fat cow give you?” Student: “Homework!”

monicaangela

Beatlex, I’ve heard that Assad has some chlorine gas, but most of the other stuff is gone. Something the Prez gets no credit for…

kesmarn

Harleigh, it worked for the U.S during Occupy Wall Street.

monicaangela

Ad–that Daily Show segment was so funny. Especially when the “death panel” woman got up and walked off. I think Klepper’ s question absolutely gobsmacked her!

glenn

true kes. Why do you think we call it ‘tourist season’ when people come visit here in the winter. You are far more likely to be robbed or shot by a cop than a mugger or gang banger.

Harleigh

Fantastic! Thanks so much for posting that, AdLib. I’ve been meaning to rub some noses in this good Obamacare news and this is the perfect way to do it!

kesmarn

Ad, damn the embargo of good US comedy to Australia!

pinkpantheroz

Beatlex, I’m not so sure ISIS doesn’t have some of our funny business when it comes to those types of weapons. You know much of their equipment has been taken from the Iraqi forces, forces we trained, equipped, and funded. No telling what they have.

monicaangela

Kes, additionally, all of the big insurance companies that shunned being on the exchange are mostly now getting on it

funksands

Ad–After being destroyed once, you would think she wouldn’t agree to a second interview. However…the definition of insanity and all that…

glenn

Harleigh, I hear that this cop-highway-robbery news is no surprise to Floridians!

kesmarn

Iraqi military rifle for sale- like new, never fired, dropped once.

Harleigh

Monica, I found a couple articles that most of their light weaponry is coming from Croatia and Turkey, smuggled into Syria and paid for by private Saudi, Kuwaiti and Qatari money

funksands

This has turned out to be gold for the insurance companies, funk!

kesmarn

Isis has destroyed most of the tanks and M1’s they captured, because they can’t service or fuel them

funksands

Ad, funny how we only get that type of information in one fell swoop on shows like this..amazing isn’t it.

monicaangela

Kes for sure. They knew this too, but a lot of them wanted to wait and see until reasonable enrollment targets (including the young) got hit.

funksands

Funksands, yes they have friends who claim to be enemies all over the ME. Many of them are ex Sunni military.

monicaangela

Profiles in capitalist courage, funk.

kesmarn

(Lee Greenwood wafts over the land)

funksands

BRB folks

glenn

A friend and one of my doctors is a Muslim leader of his local Mosque- he has had a rough time with his own Moque becaue he is so outspoken about the danger radical militant jihadism poses to mainline Islam. I see this much more clearly today.

murphthesurf3

Okay Glenn, see you later

monicaangela

Glenn…you are leaving so early…

murphthesurf3

AdLib…I couldn’t agree more. How do we again take control of our MSM?

monicaangela

Glenn…any chance of two upsets in your state, for U.S. Senate and for Gov.

murphthesurf3

One of our local mosque leaders (also an MD) wrote an article strongly condemning ISIS, Murph. Good man. No blowback so far, thank goodness.

kesmarn

Kes- it takes a lot of courage to do this…so many in the muslim community are fearful of harm being done to friends and relatives back home…wherever that is.

murphthesurf3

Murph, ISIS’s form of Islam is as is the so many forms of Christianity, bent to fit their ideology.

monicaangela

I want to meet some babes in burkas. lol

Harleigh

The more economically and politically disenfranchised people become, the more they fall into the clutches of the radical religious groups, nationalists, and xenophobes. Often one and the same

funksands

Our man is from Pakistan — Peshawar area — so he took a risk.

kesmarn

Happening in the USA right now

funksands

Desperate people do desperate things, no funk?

kesmarn

Really happening in Europe. The third world’s been living it since overthrowing colonialism

funksands

AdLib, I agree…what can we do to start up that “new” media. Ever thought about it. How do we get a message out when things are so controlled in this nation where media is concerned?

monicaangela

Monica….I had a heart to heart with a Muslim I know…a anglo convert to Islam…who says the core message for him was the struggle within to master the demons in oneself and that ISIS represents those demons.

murphthesurf3

kes – fear sells fairly cheaply

sillylittleme

That is all why we need a Palin-Bachmann 2016 ticket fer jebus!

Harleigh

Kes, what other institutions can they fall back on?

funksands

‘Zactly, slm. And fear tends to short-circuit rational thought.

kesmarn

Right, funk. They feel betrayed. And often with reason.

kesmarn

kes – if they were rational they wouldn’t be susceptible

sillylittleme

There is a lot of “new media” out there. Far more than there used to be IMO. The challenge is that it is so diluted that it’s hard to get enough critical mass to challenge conventional wisdom and conventional media

funksands

Murph, maybe that guy as a new convert should be featured somewhere. Religion is a crutch for many, confusing for most, and organized religion IMHO is nothing more than mind control and brainwashing.

monicaangela

If we could get the fear level ratcheted down, slm, rationality might have a chance, no?

kesmarn

slm, fear is given away freely.

monicaangela

Look at the rise of the nazis in Greece, and the rise of scary nationalist parties in Germany!

funksands

Ad- full screen icon does not work for firefox.

murphthesurf3

MA – thanks for correcting me…

sillylittleme

Yep Harleigh, Palin/Bachman for dog catcher. I agree.

monicaangela

no shit, scary is right

Harleigh

Hungary’s going in a bad direction too, funk.

kesmarn

Monica- the man is 53 and converted 30 years ago in jail.

murphthesurf3

Funksands, maybe you could list some of that media on the site. I would be willing to try to pass on the good news.

monicaangela

It doesn’t seem to work on my Chromebook either, AdLib. But I do have the box enlarged.

kesmarn

Ad. Could be a Firefox plus Mac issue.

murphthesurf3

Silly, that’s true, but typically good people are very vulnerable to these messages when under tremendous social, economic and political stress

funksands

The ignorant are always fodder for these people.

funksands

Murph is he a serious convert in your estimation?

monicaangela

Kes, its looking really really ugly in a lot of places over there.

funksands

Even Ukip in Britain is pretty ugly, funk.

kesmarn

funk – you have a point

sillylittleme

Monica-he lives a very good life and is an orthodox Muslim in his observance of the five pillars. He actually had to move mosques several years ago because people there thought he might be a FBI plant.

murphthesurf3

Ukip- the Tea Party of Britain.

murphthesurf3

Most of the ISIS types were from quaeda, food, water, religion, schooling, electricity, jobthocratic gubmint offered. easy to convert.s….. more than their

Harleigh

From what I’m hearing — a lot of young college kids rely on VICE News (YouTube) as well as Colbert and Daily Show.

kesmarn

Monica, one of the best is Free Speech TV, but they really struggle mightily with getting enough airwaves and exposure and markets to reach enough people. How useful are 1000 different excellent, uncoordinated podcasts really going to be?

funksands

AdLib, I would like to see a serious Daily Show, one where comedy was not the object. I would hope that one day the multitudes who really don’t have time for any type of news will get an opportunity to learn about current events.

monicaangela

Vice could be good. They look like they are close to finding their identity

funksands

Kes- I have become such a fan of Al Jazeera.

murphthesurf3

all – have a nice weekend, off to watch Bill Maher

sillylittleme

Silly, have a great night!

funksands

Bye SLM

murphthesurf3

Murph, I wish you friend luck in his endeavor to be a true Muslim. I hope he stays on the good and narrow path.

monicaangela

Byeee, slm! Have a good laugh

pinkpantheroz

Right, Funk. Some of their stuff has been “iffy” but they seem to be shaping into a real journalistic force.

kesmarn

adlib the feature works on my chrome browser on my laptop. the whole chat does.

Harleigh

Monica…I will pass your good wishes along.

murphthesurf3

G’night, slm! Enjoy!

kesmarn

Harleigh, right on with that comment. First thing they did when they started taking over towns (after killing/pressing most of the young men) was fix the water, fix the electricity, set up security, water delivery etc.

funksands

Ad, no luck full-screening with Chrome and XP Pro

pinkpantheroz

Safari on my mac works fine too

funksands

I wish I could watch maher

Harleigh

Hey ladies & gents. How is everyone?

sabreen60

Funk, I love Free Speech TV. I have contributed for years. I realize their shows are out of the ordinary and do often challenge our bad government, but that is what I believe this nation needs. I truly wish more people would tune in to their shows.

monicaangela

Murph–I’m back and to answer your question. There IS hope of a Senate and Governor upset here in GA. However…there is an organization here called The New Georgia Project that has been working for months to register minority voters. Quite successfully, I might add. They have registered about 85,000new voters. But… since we have a republican SOS, who is responsbile for certifying these voters, he has issued a subpoena accusing the organization of “voter fraud”. He has asked the organization to turn over all “documents” to him. No one knows what documents he is referring to, because the organization has turned over all the voter registration forms to him, so he can then certify which ones can then be registered. This is state law, that ALL forms be turned in, even the bogus ones, as long as they are signed. It is up to the SOS to root out the fraud. And, it’s not “voter fraud” if they haven’t voted yet. Anyway, IF these 85,000 people are certified to vote, or even most of them, then the republicans have a real problem on their hands. Hence, the subpeona. What’s a republican to do?

glenn

Hey, Sabreen! Fall is here in corn country.

kesmarn

Ad, I thought it was verrrrry interesting when Stewart and Colbert “felt” that momentum and tried to turn it into something semi-serious with their big to-do in DC. Remember that?

funksands

Thanks Murph.

monicaangela

Hi Sabreen

funksands

AdLib, we should really consider trying to get something like this started.

monicaangela

Monica, exactly

funksands

I was there Funk. It was disappointing.

sabreen60

Harleigh, you can watch Bill Maher on YouTube.

monicaangela

Glenn…you confirm what I am reading…I saw an interview with the New Georgia Project people and their attorneys…they will challenge everything they say and in the meantime continue to press forward on this.

murphthesurf3

Monica, I read that one state (might have been TX, can’t recall) actually sent a SWAT team in to a voter registration office to “retrieve documents” — no subpoena. Just went right to the bully tactics.

kesmarn

Kes, It was Texas.

sabreen60

Good Night SLM

monicaangela

Nite SLM.

sabreen60

Sabreen, yeah I watched it and people wanted it to be exciting and challenging and quite frankly, partisan and it was none of those things. The message was “don’t be mean”?

funksands

Thanks, Sabreen! They sent one of those full-blown body-armored, and armed units!

kesmarn

kes, that’s downright scary

pinkpantheroz

AdLib, there is so much money floating around this nation it isn’t funny. The fat cats are overflowing with the stuff. All that is needed is an idea that will sell, information that can convince them a new media will work and we’re in.

monicaangela

Murph–my biggest question is…will the SOS certify these voters in time? The deadline for registering to vote in the midterms here in GA is October 6th, which is not too far away. I also think that is a huge reason for the subpeona; but I don’t understand how the SOS can neglect his job, no matter from whom the forms came.

glenn

This is becoming my latest “issue” PPO (as you can tell). If our law enforcement people go off the rails, we’ve got a major problem.

kesmarn

Funk. The problem I had was that the truth was not told about Republicans saying “no” to everything. Nor did they call out the mean-spirit Teabaggers. It was the false equivalency thing that was disappointing to me.

sabreen60

Looks scarily like it is happening already, kes

pinkpantheroz

Ad, it sure was. It didn’t go over well, but they really exposed a hunger in the nation for some direction

funksands

Hello Sabreen!

monicaangela

Glenn….the GOP is doing all it can to suppress the vote every where they can for fear of what will happen if all who can vot do and in doing so they are verifying that they are every bit as unworthy of the public trust a the Demcorats are aying.

murphthesurf3

In some areas (like Ferguson), it sure is, PPO.

kesmarn

Hey Monica. Glad to see you

sabreen60

Hey Sabreen

glenn

Ad, how about the Gates Foundation?

pinkpantheroz

Don’t know if anyone mention it, but it seems court in WI upheld the voter suppression tactic.

sabreen60

Ad, people like Nick Hanauer or they guy in California that started a Defeat Climate Deniers SuperPac

funksands

I missed that, Sabreen. Sorry to hear that.

kesmarn

PPO, they wouldn’t do it.

funksands

Murph–I agree. I’ve always wanted to ask a repub politician if their policies are so great, and the American people are so in agreement with those policies,then why are they afraid of people registering to vote?

glenn

Ad, that’s human nature. People like to take people with balls down a peg.

funksands

AdLib, I know what you mean. There are more fat cats than those we see in the news everyday. Many venture capitalist are never heard of. Guys like Soros and others would be interested, but they have an agenda. We would need the really greedy, those who are just in it for profit. The problem is anyone who worked on this project would have to work their buts off for the first few years in order to turn a profit and gain an audience.

monicaangela

Wow, glenn what a bnrilliant observation, and why isn’t anyone asking that question in MSM?

pinkpantheroz

Sabreen, good to see you too.

monicaangela

Glenn = they know the truth…at least the smart ones do.

murphthesurf3

Good idea PPO, and there are many more.

monicaangela

Here’s an article about the WI voter ID law:

sabreen60

Thanks PPO.

glenn

Glenn, even better question: “Dear Republican Legislator; since 2001 there that have been 3x the cases of ELECTION fraud than in-person voter fraud. Why aren’t you putting any election fraud laws up for a vote?”

funksands

Thanks, Sabreen. Sigh… A step forward in Ohio. A step back in WI…

kesmarn

I noticed that Sabreen….a travesty to say the least. What did they do in Georgia? Have you heard?

monicaangela

Sabreen that sucks

funksands

in floriduh a pic id has been required since the debacle that installed Bush

Harleigh

Funk–do you mean absentee voter fraud? Otherwise, I”m not sure I understand your question. Could you elaborate?

glenn

Glenn, the GOP is suffering with so many indicted/convicted Governors and legislators, they don’t have time for anything else.

monicaangela

Sabreen- this photo voter ID thing….I wish the Dems would have just pushed to be sure everyone has one….

murphthesurf3

Glenn, election fraud. An official or some other person acting illegally to influence an election rather than just a vote.

funksands

That is a great feature, AdLib! Kudos to the developer. And it’s nice to know that there’s a ‘girl techie’ behind it all!

kesmarn

Tampering with ballots, machines, information etc

funksands

AdLib, I understand what you are saying. I believe the effort is worth trying. It is something I will continue to think about. Maybe this idea can gain footing, maybe we can be instrumental in helping it along.

monicaangela

Funk–oh okay, thanks for the clarification. Sometimes I sit a little low in my seat and things go over my head. And…haven’t those election frauds been committed mostly by republicans?

glenn

These Diebold machines in Ohio would be so easy to hack, funk…

kesmarn

Monica, I don’t know what the result will be in Georgia. I know one State rep said that he believes it’s not important how many people are allowed to vote. What is important is how intelligent the people are. Next thing they’ll try to bring back “how many bubbles are in a bar of soap”.

sabreen60

I love to see women excelling in the field, AdLib.

kesmarn

Hey gang, what’s up?

killgoretrout

There were 207 cases of some other kind of election fraud for every 1 case of voter impersonation since 2001.

funksands

Hey, Homie! How are things on the Cape?

kesmarn

Glenn, don’t know.

funksands

I’d like to think so though 😉

funksands

Murph, What I’ve read is Dems are organizing in these Red states to make sure people have what they need. However, in a state like TX, some people have to go 200 miles to vote.

sabreen60

hey kt

Harleigh

Hey KT!

funksands

BRB

sabreen60

Sabreen, I saw that rep on the MSM. He should be the first to go. Imagine that, these people are over the top these days, they don’t even try to hide their criminal behavior anymore. Poll Tax and questionnaire, didn’t we have that once before. It appears the GOP is trying to take us back to the 20th century.

monicaangela

Hello KT!!! Good you could make it.

monicaangela

Yep

funksands

Homie! Things are going really well. Took the mom to the beach the other day and stuck our feet in the water. She really enjoyed it. So did I. Gorgeous weather.

killgoretrout

Great Ad, keep me informed, I may be able to help.

monicaangela

That sounds great! She’s so lucky to have you there, KT!

kesmarn

Hey funk Monica Ad PPO!

killgoretrout

Monica and Sabreen–that official you’re talking about was complaining because one county in GA had voted to have Sunday voting for the midterms. Only one Sunday, but still. Then two more counties have followed suit. The demographics of the original county were mostly minority, of course, and the repub was complaining that churches and shoppers (one precinct is close to a mall) would be “busing” people into vote. He also said that he wanted “educated” voters, not shoppers, implying that the people in that precinct were not educated. Also, see my reply to Murph (above) regarding our SOS subpeoning a group that has registered 85,000 minority voters.

glenn

Once you are registered to vote in floriduh you can vote by mail. I have not been to the pols in years.

Harleigh

Homie, she hasn’t been to the beach at all this summer. It was really bothering her. She used to go almost every day.

killgoretrout

Thanks Ad. She did. It was very nice. I love that beach.

killgoretrout

Actually Ad, I have been thinking about this for a long time. I’m wearing my shoes out trying to be a one woman band, would love to have help in disseminating information. I’m a hard worker too, and anything I believe in gets my full attention.

monicaangela

I’ll bet that really brightened her mood, Homie. So good of you to do that.

kesmarn

Hiya KT!

sabreen60

Talking about crooked politicians, we have our own Independent Commission against Corruption hearings on illegal political contributions. the local version of the GOP in New South Wales has seen 10, yes 10 pollies stand aside for illegal contributions. Member for Port Stephens Craig Baumann has announced he’s standing aside from the NSW Liberal Party after becoming the tenth MP to be implicated in the ICAC’s inquiry into political donations.” I wonder if such an inquiry could be held in the USA?

pinkpantheroz

Oh, I enjoyed it as much as she did. She calls it..”her beach.”

killgoretrout

Hi KT, and bye. Glad to hear your mom is doing well. For everyone else, good night. Love chatting here on the VOX, but once again, an early soccer game tomorrow. Go Hailey!

glenn

Hey Sabreen! I just saw the glowing kitty! How are you?

killgoretrout

Glenn, it’s amazing people like that after making those kinds of statements can be allowed to continue to hold a seat in any legislative branch in this country.

monicaangela

PPO, it sounds as though Oz takes these matters much more seriously than the US does>

kesmarn

Harleigh, I don’t believe in voting by mail. I love going to the polls. You’d be surprised at how many people I have helped make the decision to change their vote for the better candidate.
