Egyptians Celebrate! Many years ago, I worked for someone who shares your business philosophy. » Posted By ErnestineBass On February 11, 2011 @ 11:09 am I have to agree with audadvnc. Suleiman is a butcher, and if Washington throws its tacit support behind him, any hope for a peaceful transition to some form of democratic Egyptian government will be snuffed out in short order. ‘Tis a pity so many still refuse to acknowledge that as true. » Posted By ErnestineBass On February 11, 2011 @ 11:05 am “Loyalty to a corporation first and their friends second” is precisely why my forays into HPWorld will now be few and far between. » Posted By ErnestineBass On February 12, 2011 @ 11:03 am Controversy sells, dear. » Posted By ErnestineBass On February 12, 2011 @ 10:43 am Whatever happened to CobaltBlue? He went AWOL some time ago.

Check it out and you’ll understand WHY! The segment featuring newly unemployed workers at the Centralia, Illinois “Payday” candy bar plant is incredibly prescient. (Yeah…I know…they should be paying me a sales commission.heh) » Posted By ErnestineBass On August 21, 2009 @ 1:54 pmComments Posted By ErnestineBass
I would have walked through fire for that man.
Over the last two weeks, I’ve watched and listened (broken-hearted) as American media dutifully pushed the fear-mongering “Caliphate!” meme of the rightwing.
Americans no longer live in a democracy…they live in the corpse of a democracy.
Rumours of this unholy AOL/HP alliance have been circulating in the business community for months, but every time I posted a comment regarding the possibility of a merger (prior to its announcement), it “mysteriously” disappeared into the e-ether (along with any comment questioning the “wisdom” of Obama’s latest inner circle picks).
I predict an uptick in “White House CoS Warns Social Security On Brink of Collapse”-themed articles in the weeks to come because, despite Arriana’s claims to the contrary, she’s no longer in charge of editorial decisions at the HP – Pete Peterson and the AOL board is.
“Bang your helmet against the wall…you’re breaking up.”
I, for one, refuse to indulge her fantasy, or to support a site now owned by a company (AOL) that boasts Pete Peterson as a board member.
I did notice that HP made NO MENTION last night of the latest go-round in Teathuglical budget cut proposals…they’ve upped the ante yesterday from $35 billion to $65 billion. That strikes me as a “sin of omission” on HP’s part. Not that I’m at all surprised.
You’re among friends here.
BTW…have you read Eric Hoffer’s “The True Believer”? Methinks you’d find it very insightful given this ongoing FOX discussion.
Good stuff.
Attempting to engage someone in “debate” who’s “sphere of knowledge” is based solely on propaganda is a fool’s errand, and generally detrimental to ones blood pressure.
Sorry.
