Displaying 4,951 To 4,980 Of 5,801 Comments Charles Krauthammer was on CBS this morning claiming that the Republicans will keep the House. His reasoning was that they have so many seats that are secure. What I think is that some of the TP House members will lose and some of the more sane Republicans will lose to Democrats. Charles gave me the impression that he is a “sexual intellectual” (a F**king know it all). » Posted By Nirek On October 22, 2013 @ 5:19 am Haruko, I don’t think we have met. Glad to meet you here. I think Pope Francis is correct. The people he is talking about are those who pervert the church. They read the bible and take the parts they like and ignore the rest. Jesus was clear in his actions that the meek, poor, and sick were no worse than the rich, vociferous, and the well. (because they can afford health care) The Pope is calling it absolutely the way it is. Thanks for posting the link. » Posted By Nirek On October 21, 2013 @ 5:17 pm If it wasn’t true it would be funny. sadly , it is too close to the truth. » Posted By Nirek On October 21, 2013 @ 4:40 am Check this out in relation to the last post of mine.
» Posted By Nirek On October 21, 2013 @ 4:37 am I have to post this link to HP, sorry Ad. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/20/bush-official-iraq_n_4132719.html There is a post on the music thread that goes along with this story. » Posted By Nirek On October 21, 2013 @ 4:33 am In the school yard there is a bully. What is the best way to end the reign of the bully? Stand up to him and he will back down. A bully is basically a coward and when faced with someone standing there and fighting back he will retreat. In Congress there was a bully (Tea Party/ Ted Cruz) trying to intimidate the Democratic Party. To a person they stood up to the bully. They forced him to retreat with his “tail between his legs”. I’m proud our our Democratic Congressmen/women and Senators for not giving in to intimidation. We are going to have a Government up and running tomorrow. Thanks to the Democrats standing unanimously against the Tea Party (bully). » Posted By Nirek On October 16, 2013 @ 1:41 pm CL, I never thought of it as I don’t pay much attention to weather in other countries. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. I also share your concern for Kalima. » Posted By Nirek On October 16, 2013 @ 8:14 am Kalima, you are too kind to those idiots! I call them treasonous! » Posted By Nirek On October 15, 2013 @ 5:19 pm Kes, if any worker for any business did the kind of job that congress does they would be fired. » Posted By Nirek On October 15, 2013 @ 4:19 am Ad, I agree that the repubs would try to use treason against us if they had a chance. However it is in the Constitution which they tout every time they think they can fool people. Article III section 3 is clear. If we are calling “whistle blowers” traitors and would try them for treason if we could get them, why would we not try these traitors? I know I’ll not get my wish but I have to say what I believe in my heart. » Posted By Nirek On October 14, 2013 @ 4:49 pm What are the “entitlements” that Issa and the republicans are talking about cutting? Social Security? Medicare? Medicaid, Head Start, Veterans benefits? Women’s issues? Tell me which “entitlement is not earned by the recipients? Head Start? Okay, lets talk. Head Start is a program that educates our youngest to prepare them to be better citizens. How is that “entitlement” so costly that we need to cut it? Social Security is NOT an “entitlement” , we paid into the trust fund. That is our money and it is NOT the governments. Veterans benefits? Sure we served our country and earned the meager benefits we get. In my case Agent Orange (no not Boehner) gave me diabetes, and I lost the hearing in my right ear and I suffer from GIRD (acid reflux). What do I get for compensation? $445 a month. » Posted By Nirek On October 14, 2013 @ 3:44 pm Assumed, this seems to me like they are subverting the US Constitution. » Posted By Nirek On October 14, 2013 @ 6:50 am I hate to sound like a broken record (many don’t know what a record is anymore),but the damage done to the USA is due to the treasonous Tea Party! They are holding veterans, older folks, young people, vacationers, business people, and most Americans hostage to get what they can’t get through the legal way. Why do I call it treasonous? http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution_transcript.html From the Constitution above. Article III section 3 Section. 3. Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court. The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted. We are still at WAR with AQ. Tell me if I’m wrong and why these Tea Party folks who are forcing the shutdown are not traitors and shouldn’t be arrested and tried for treason. » Posted By Nirek On October 13, 2013 @ 12:21 pm What would Americans think of us if we held up the Continuing Resolution asking for gun control, or women’s rights, or any other of our hopes? Most of us would tell the Reps and Senators to pass the CR ! Americans need to hear the truth about the shutdown. The blame is 100% on the Republicans! » Posted By Nirek On October 13, 2013 @ 7:52 am KT, the manipulators are GREEDY and only look out for their own interests (Koch brothers). The haters are batshit crazy! The ignorant easily lead are the stupid. I doubt there are any who have conviction of their morality. They lack morality. » Posted By Nirek On October 11, 2013 @ 4:15 pm I’v been thinking about the Taxed Enough Already (Teaparty) folks. I think there are three types of them. There is the rich and greedy manipulator. Then there is the hater of the fact that the President is a black man. Last of all there is the ignorant person who is easily persuaded to do what is against his/her best interest. If anyone can find fault with what I think, please let me know where I’m wrong. » Posted By Nirek On October 11, 2013 @ 2:58 pm I see your comment, Glenn. » Posted By Nirek On October 11, 2013 @ 8:59 am kes, I can’t tell you how many times I have shut my computer down the wrong way and got that pop-up. Very cleaver of you! » Posted By Nirek On October 10, 2013 @ 5:42 pm The GOP is unreasonable and un-American. They now have 5% approval rating and dropping. They have snatched defeat right out of thin air. They just don’t realize it yet. » Posted By Nirek On October 10, 2013 @ 5:40 pm Ad, education will overcome all ! This young lady reminds me of my 14 year old granddaughter. Very smart. We need more people like Malala! » Posted By Nirek On October 10, 2013 @ 4:47 am Ad, they didn’t think they would loose to Obama a second time either. Delusional describes them accurately. » Posted By Nirek On October 9, 2013 @ 1:42 pm I wonder if the Congressmen/women are proud of their approval rating? It has dropped to 5%! The “Speaker of the House” has turned into the “Speaker of the Tea Party” only.All the while the Republican Party has devolved into a weird shadow of its former self. » Posted By Nirek On October 9, 2013 @ 8:09 am Funk, That blows them out of the water when they say “lets have a conversation”! Dems have been trying to for months, now. » Posted By Nirek On October 8, 2013 @ 5:06 pm I think we need to call the “Affordable Care Act” by its real title and forget about calling it “Obamacare” because many ignorant people think one is good and the other is bad even though they are the same thing. » Posted By Nirek On October 8, 2013 @ 4:02 pm I just about threw a shoe at the TV set when that horrible person , poor excuse for a Speaker of the House, John Boehner said the POTUS refused to have a “conversation”! This guy is delusional ! » Posted By Nirek On October 8, 2013 @ 1:47 pm The Republicans have racked up debt to the tune of trillions of dollars. Now they are refusing to pay that debt. POTUS is saying pass the CR and then we will talk. He refuses to pay ransom for them to do their jobs. » Posted By Nirek On October 8, 2013 @ 1:17 pm “Bonehead” is too stupid to bring this to a vote and stop this nonsense. » Posted By Nirek On October 7, 2013 @ 2:06 pm Sue, I never understood why they don’t shoot at the tires . That would disable the car and it may have saved her life. That said , with the way suicide bombers are so prevalent they probably felt she was a danger to the public. I don’t know enough to find fault. (Monday morning quarterbacking) » Posted By Nirek On October 5, 2013 @ 3:13 pm Ad, I’m calling them Teapots (AKA crackpots)! » Posted By Nirek On October 5, 2013 @ 3:06 pm Ad, I wonder if we can’t get a couple of the baggers out as well. Some people in their districts may be sane after all. » Posted By Nirek On October 4, 2013 @ 10:50 amComments Posted By Nirek
I’ll post it after this .
Thanks for the link.
They have done what our enemy has been trying to do forever. They have disrupted our government and our economy. That is exactly what AQ has wanted. That is treason. Why is it treason? Because they have given aid to AQ in their quest to disrupt our government and economy.
Our Government does NOT work that way. We go through the legislative process and make compromises. The ACA has several of the things that the Republicans put in it. They put those things in to make it weaker than we wanted it. Still none of them voted for it. Even though we compromised. Now they want it defunded or else we will default on our obligations.
