Displaying 5,731 To 5,760 Of 5,801 Comments Friends I just saw this clip and have to share it with all of you. Believe me it is worth watching and listening to. It speaks volumes ! » Posted By Nirek On September 5, 2012 @ 1:05 pm I’m waiting impatiently for the debates. The President should not take prisoners. Have no mercy. » Posted By Nirek On September 2, 2012 @ 2:59 pm KT, you are right about the “if”. Too many softball questions and too few substantial questions. I want to hear questions and answers like “what jobs have you created?” “Where are your tax returns?” “How much money do you have in foreign accounts?” Feel free to add some questions. » Posted By Nirek On August 28, 2012 @ 3:42 am I am impatient waiting for the debates. I believe President Obama will “mop the floor” with Mittens. Romney has lied ,distorted, and mislead the American people and Obama will have so much ammo to use against him that it will be a “blood bath”. That is my opinion. But the fact is that Romney has created his own set of “facts” to go by. » Posted By Nirek On August 27, 2012 @ 9:50 am Why would any woman or man who has women he loves and cares about vote for any GOPer? It seems that GOPers hate women and do NOT want them to have control of their bodies. I am old enough to remember women having to go to some quack in a dark alley to get an abortion. I doubt we should ever return to those dark days. » Posted By Nirek On August 22, 2012 @ 8:05 am Sue, as a man with a wife of 39+ years and a daughter and three granddaughters I don’t want to go back to the days a woman had to sneak into a dark back alley to have a quack use a knitting needle to do an abortion. I think all women and all men who have women they love should vote for President Obama on the basis that women’s safety is under attack buy the GOP! » Posted By Nirek On August 21, 2012 @ 2:39 pm Check this link out for a good laugh at Mitts expense ; Too funny! » Posted By Nirek On August 21, 2012 @ 10:41 am KT, you can’t make this stuff up! » Posted By Nirek On August 20, 2012 @ 10:32 am I’ve been thinking about fairness in politics. » Posted By Nirek On August 20, 2012 @ 10:27 am Bito and Kesmam, I want to see as many years tax returns as Romney got from Ryan. We are the “you people” Mrs. Romney spoke about when she said we had enough information. I still think Mitt has a god complex and he and his wife think they are above us. (little people) » Posted By Nirek On August 19, 2012 @ 12:02 pm KT, the riches and pomp are the part of the Catholic church that I object to. Jesus said love your neighbor as yourself. To me that means help anyone who needs help. Simply out of love. » Posted By Nirek On August 18, 2012 @ 4:04 am Bito, I agree Mormonism seems like a cult. I also agree that money is the root cause of most troubles in religion. That’s why I pray from home. » Posted By Nirek On August 17, 2012 @ 5:28 pm Thanks KQ. I just used google because I didn’t know enough about the Mormon religion. I was born Catholic but stay home and do my praying there or out in the woods or riding on my tractor. I happen to believe that God listens wherever you speak to him. I have a problem with the bible thumpers who act hypocritically. They are as bad as any extremist of any religion. » Posted By Nirek On August 17, 2012 @ 5:24 pm In Mitt we trust , this is what he wants us to believe. Mitt Romney wants us to believe anything he says. He feels entitled and I figured out why. Mormonism believes differently than most other religions. The following is from ; What do Mormons believe about the Trinity and polytheism? Mormons believe that the Trinity consists not of three persons in one God but rather of three distinct gods. According to Mormonism, there are potentially many thousands of gods besides these. What does the Bible teach about the Triune God? Trusting in or worshiping more than one god is explicitly condemned throughout the Bible (e.g., Ex. 20:3). There is only one true God (Deut. 4:35, 39; 6:4; Isa. 43:10; 44:6, 8; 45:18; 46:9; 1 Cor. 8:4; James 2:19), who exists eternally in three persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit (Matt. 28:19; 2 Cor. 13:14). What do Mormons believe about human exaltation? Mormons believe that humans, like God the Father, can go through a process of exaltation to godhood. What does the Bible teach about humanity? The Bible teaches that the yearning to be godlike led to the fall of mankind (Gen. 3:4ff.). God does not look kindly on humans who pretend to attain to deity (Acts 12:21-23; contrast Acts 14:11-15). God desires humans to humbly recognize that they are his creatures (Gen. 2:7; 5:2; Ps. 95:6-7; 100:3). The state of the redeemed in eternity will be one of glorious immortality, but they will forever remain God’s creatures, adopted as his children (Rom. 8:14-30; 1 Cor. 15:42-57; Rev. 21:3-7). Believers will never become gods. What do Mormons believe about Jesus? Mormons believe that Jesus Christ was the firstborn spirit-child of the heavenly Father and a heavenly Mother. Jesus then progressed to deity in the spirit world. He was later physically conceived in Mary’s womb, as the literal “only begotten” Son of God the Father in the flesh (though many present-day Mormons remain somewhat vague as to how this occurred). What does the Bible teach about Jesus? Biblically, the description of Jesus as the “only begotten” refers to his being the Father’s unique, one-of-a-kind Son for all eternity, with the same divine nature as the Father (see note on John 1:14; cf. John 1:18; 3:16, 18; see also John 5:18; 10:30). Moreover, he is eternal deity (John 1:1; 8:58) and is immutable (Heb. 1:10-12; 13:8), meaning he did not progress to deity but has always been God. And Mary’s conception of Jesus in his humanity was through a miracle of the Holy Spirit (Matt. 1:20). What do Mormons believe about our eternal destiny? Mormons believe that most people will end up in one of three kingdoms of glory, depending on one’s level of faithfulness. Belief in Christ, or even in God, is not necessary to obtain immortality in one of these three kingdoms, and therefore only the most spiritually perverse will go to hell. What does the Bible teach about our eternal destiny ? The Bible teaches that people have just two possibilities for their eternal futures: the saved will enjoy eternal life with God in the new heavens and new earth (Phil. 3:20; Rev. 21:1-4; 22:1-5), while the unsaved will spend eternity in hell (Matt. 25:41, 46; Rev. 20:13-15). What do Mormons believe about sin and atonement? Mormons believe that Adam’s transgression was a noble act that made it possible for humans to become mortal, a necessary step on the path to exaltation to godhood. They think that Christ’s atonement secures immortality for virtually all people, whether they repent and believe or not. What does the Bible teach about sin and atonement? Biblically, there was nothing noble about Adam’s sin, which was not a stepping-stone to godhood but rather brought nothing but sin, misery, and death to mankind (Gen. 3:16-19; Rom. 5:12-14). Jesus atoned for the sins of all who would trust him for salvation (Isa. 53:6; John 1:29; 2 Cor. 5:21; 1 Pet. 2:24; 3:18; 1 John 2:2; 4:10). What do Mormons believe about salvation? Mormons believe that God gives to (virtually) everyone a general salvation to immortal life in one of the heavenly kingdoms, which is how they understand salvation by grace. Belief in Christ is necessary only to obtain passage to the highest, celestial kingdom—for which not only faith but participation in Mormon temple rituals and obedience to its “laws of the gospel” are also prerequisites. So what I think is that Mitt believes that he has achieved godhood ! » Posted By Nirek On August 17, 2012 @ 9:45 am Any of you folks know the average tax rate % wise for middle class working folks? I believe it is way more than the 13% Romney wants us to believe he paid. Mitt wants us to take his word for it but I for one don’t believe a word he says. » Posted By Nirek On August 17, 2012 @ 3:50 am Between Romney and “w” they have zero ethics. I will NOT be voting for Mitt! » Posted By Nirek On July 31, 2012 @ 4:19 am Bito, there are a lot of things that really piss off the teapublicans. Taxing guns and ammo would tick them off no end. Tax the manufacturers of guns and ammo too. » Posted By Nirek On July 23, 2012 @ 4:40 am Bito, we must be brothers from a different mother. I had a Dad that taught me the same lesson about making change and getting the good deal. I remember going to the corner store and picking two for a penny candies filling a small paper bag for a quarter. I couldn’t agree more about education. Today these kids are smart but they sure don’t know the proper way to make change. I was at a store when the electricity went out and the young person at the register could not figure the change on a purchase. I instructed him and he said “hey that works good”. Scary, huh? » Posted By Nirek On July 23, 2012 @ 3:57 am There is no need to regulate guns any more than we already do, just tax guns and ammo to the extreme! Make the cost of a gun or ammo so high that people will not buy them. Make the tax one that cannot be lowered by any way at tax time. Judge Roberts said the congress can tax but not place a penalty. » Posted By Nirek On July 23, 2012 @ 3:44 am Kalima, the media tries to keep the race close but fails to report the truth. They allow the politicians to spew their talking points without questioning truth of their statements. Why do “reporters” do that instead of asking the hard questions and getting to the truth? » Posted By Nirek On July 16, 2012 @ 4:52 am Bito, #16 Hits the nail on the head. Also they are hypocritical for spending 50Million on the repeal vote when they knew that the Senate would kill the bill. » Posted By Nirek On July 15, 2012 @ 10:50 am Bito, Thank you. I was drafted in 1967 before they started the lottery at the same time my Dad retired. He was a WWII and Korean War vet and career soldier. (1st Sgt.) He gave the advice to keep my head down and when I returned he had the wisdom to sit me down and make me talk sharing with me his experiences as well. To this day I have no sign of PTSD thanks to my Dads wisdom. I miss that old man. » Posted By Nirek On July 13, 2012 @ 4:03 pm As a Vietnam veteran I am offended by the SCOTUS saying that a person can lie about winning the Medal of Honor or any other military award from a WAR! I was shot at as an infantryman (draftee ) in 1969 and was lucky enough to be missed. (I give my Dad a WWII vet credit for telling me to keep my head down. If your head is down close to the ground your body is too, unless you are standing on your head.) Sorry got off track. That happens to old guys like me. Safe to say in my mind it diminishes the awards my fellow vets and I received from doing our duty. » Posted By Nirek On July 13, 2012 @ 7:22 am KS, never underestimate the power of a woman or a nurse. My wife is both and she is under a hundred pounds but is super strong! Women have some kind of inner strength that works without muscle like men use. » Posted By Nirek On July 11, 2012 @ 3:37 am Lets start a push to withhold the pay of the congress until they start doing what we pay them for. Congress has lost touch with the American people and are working for their new “owners” CORPORATIONS! » Posted By Nirek On July 10, 2012 @ 7:08 am Goofy is a good way to describe these GOPers today. In my opinion Ike was the last real decent republican. » Posted By Nirek On July 8, 2012 @ 3:29 pm Bito , I’d like to publish a list of these corporations and ask people to boycott them. » Posted By Nirek On July 8, 2012 @ 3:24 pm Bito, I think his high blood pressure is having an effect on him. Or he may have some kind of a brain tumor. Either way the man is a mental case. » Posted By Nirek On July 8, 2012 @ 3:20 pm Adlib, anyone who pays their taxes and banks on shore (preferably local) and has any common sense would not vote for Mitt. Cheating on taxes is stealing from other taxpayers. Mitt has cheated for years and doesn’t feel that the laws apply to him. I say a man who does that has no right to become president. We need to get the word out to people who do not pay attention to politics that Mitt is a tax evading crook! » Posted By Nirek On July 5, 2012 @ 4:40 am From experience I doubt that Joe Walsh ever served in the military. He is what I call a “chickenhawk”. It seems that many of the GOPers are “chickenhawks”, they love sending other folks off to WAR but they wont go themselves. Worse than that IMO is that he is a deadbeat dad. He doesn’t pay child support for those he fathered. Disgusting! » Posted By Nirek On July 4, 2012 @ 4:55 amComments Posted By Nirek

Not sure when they will be on but I know Obama can wipe the floor with mitt. I just hope Obama doesn’t take it easy on him. I want Mitts taxes made public. I want to hear about his Mormonism and lying.
“Why do you hate women?” “Why do you hate Americans?”

To the GOP science is just something that gets in the way of their kind of “facts”. (made up to fit the situation)
The SCOTUS has changed politics from one person one vote to the richest people can bribe legally! The “citizens united” decision has effectively made bribery legal. With legal bribery the working people have less say in the government because they cannot afford to put their hard earned money into politics.
http://thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/justintaylor/2012/06/13/are-mormons-christians-2/
Thus, In Mitt we trust = In God we trust in his mind.
Neither of them cares who gets hurt as long as they get what they want.
It seems that many politicians have little in the way of ethics but these two are void in ethics.
I will vote for Obama!
And all the rest are spot on , too.
These politicians claiming that they were awarded some medals while they never served are as crooked as a snake.
Peace and love = happiness
BTW how many are international corporations ? If any are I contend they may be “citizens” but NOT American citizens and therefore they are breaking the law giving to American politicians. IMO.
