Displaying 181 To 210 Of 5,801 Comments Morning Blog 6th Anniverary Edition Kalima, thanks for all the work you do to bring MB to us. I will have to return to read more later. When money buys the “news” like Sheldon Addleson did in Vegas “freedom of the press” is gone! I had the best Christmas and birthday (the next day) My son and his girlfriend came for both days. He bought tickets for Star Wars for them, me, and my gradnchildren and son in law. Christmas night just after 9PM was when we went. It was good but the company was far better. On the 26th my daughter and her four children came too! I had the people with me that I love the most in the world! It was wonderful! Kalima, I wish you a happy and wonderful new year, full of peace, joy, and just plain happiness! Much love, too. » Posted By Nirek On December 28, 2015 @ 5:25 am Kalima, I wish you a very merry Christmas! You are a wonder. » Posted By Nirek On December 24, 2015 @ 2:34 am Good morning Kalima, I hope you are feeling well. So much news around the world. As always I will have to return several times to read different stories. I read a lot but I am a slow reader. Corruption in government doesn’t seem to be just one country, but most. As always seems to be the way the pictures tell stories. As you know I like nature. The animals help each other out like the oxpeckers feasting on the parasites that the water buffalo hosts. Thus they both benefit. Kalima, thanks for the hard work you do to bring all these news stories and human interest stories. There is no end to things to read and learn. Peace for now, back later. » Posted By Nirek On December 4, 2015 @ 3:51 am Kalima, MB is always worth the wait. Take care of yourself, please. » Posted By Nirek On December 3, 2015 @ 3:30 am Where is all this leading to,Kalima? » Posted By Nirek On November 24, 2015 @ 3:33 am Kalima, congrats on six years of MB! You really work hard getting all the news articles out for us to read. I know I am not the only one who enjoys reading a few stories now and come back later to read some more. It seems to me that the world is starting to come together to fight ISIS. With the Russian plane downed , they seem to want to join forces with many others. This I think is a good thing. It could mean that the end of terrorism is in our future. Bernie as always is the strongest candidate, in my opinion, anyway. His ideals and ideas are in line with mine and his agenda is one I am behind 100%! America and the world will be better if/when Bernie is President. Again in my opinion. Is the “Y” shaped thing a PVC pipe for plumbing? Thanks, Kalima for all that you do for us here at the Planet. Peace » Posted By Nirek On November 20, 2015 @ 4:34 am Ben Carson Announces His First 3 Acts if Elected President Hey Ad, everything that KT said is right on! I can’t top his post. » Posted By Nirek On November 4, 2015 @ 4:21 pm What Makes A Republican a “Winner” in a Debate? Hatin’! Monica, I can’t watch much of their “debates” without getting sick. I see enough of them on the “news”. 1%ers #FearTneBern » Posted By Nirek On October 31, 2015 @ 9:35 am Monica, I find it hard to understand how the republicans can stand there and tell us that the “media” is liberal. The “media” gives them all the attention. But I just figured it out. They lie all the time. » Posted By Nirek On October 30, 2015 @ 4:43 pm Hillary Covers Up Truth of Why Bill Clinton Signed DOMA Excellent article, AdLib! I too will vote for the Dem in November 2016 simply because if Bernie doesn’t get the nomination there is not a single Republican candidate I could vote for. That said, I feel sure that Bernie will win the nomination. Your article describes “politicians” very well. They will say or do whatever will give them an edge. Bernie is not the usual politician. He has always done what he felt is the right thing to do, not what he thinks will get him more votes. I have known Bernie all of his career because his career has taken place here in Vermont. Bernie has been making correct votes even when they were NOT popular. “Political expediency” is not what Bernie thinks of when doing his job. That is what is differentiates Bernie from all other politicians. It is also what makes Bernie the best candidate for President! » Posted By Nirek On October 27, 2015 @ 4:15 am Hi Funk, that lonely vote was not the only time Bernie has been right with his vote while almost all other Reps. and Senators were wrong. Bernie is a different breed of politician. He is honest, has integrity, and morality, all of which seem to be missing in other politicians! » Posted By Nirek On October 27, 2015 @ 3:44 am The MSM’s Re-Coronation of Hillary Clinton Great article AdLib! Your explaination of how and why the “news media” contrives the “news” so they can make more money on advertisements is right on! Remembering the past as well as I do, the “news media” has changed from “the most trusted person” Walter Cronkite to prevaricators who try to influence public perception of politicians. The corporate owned “news media” has tried to marginalize Bernie Sanders campaign unsuccessfully. Mostly because the world wide web has taken over the distribution of the real news. It takes a little work to get the truth even on the web, but at least it is available. Bernie is not for sale. That can’t be said about any other candidate! Hillary has super pacs, too big corporations donations, and history of being on the board of directors of Walmart proving that she can be purchased. It is good to see that you have not lost your touch when it comes to serious writing, Ad. I always like reading your pieces whether they are tongue in cheek or serious you always hit the nail squarely on the head! » Posted By Nirek On October 22, 2015 @ 3:45 am Weekend Music Thread – Fly Like an Eagle Dragons fly, right?
» Posted By Nirek On October 17, 2015 @ 8:24 am Bernie flys the same as you or I do, sometimes even in the middle seat.

» Posted By Nirek On October 17, 2015 @ 8:19 am Friday Comedy Singalong: “I’m Proud to Be A Democrat” Nice! » Posted By Nirek On October 17, 2015 @ 3:59 am JOIN OUR LIVE CHAT TONIGHT: The 1st Democratic Presidential Debate – 5:30 PM PDT It was good to chat with so many of you folks last night. Usually I can’t stay up very late but I wanted to see the debate. CNN went screwy on my TV at 10 so I left you , but it was fun. I think Bernie did a great job and Hillary didn’t hurt herself. » Posted By Nirek On October 14, 2015 @ 4:14 am Monica, you misspelled Tea Potty. » Posted By Nirek On October 10, 2015 @ 10:25 am Rumors are all over the web about some kind of affair between McCarthy and another House member. I have no proof but rumors do seem to come true often with these politicians. Paul Ryan has quickly said he didn’t want the job! Why? The Republican party can’t seem to get their act together. As AdLib said, this is good in the long run. It will probably mean that the party self destructs, in my opinion. This is interesting just like a train wreck is. » Posted By Nirek On October 9, 2015 @ 5:13 am A Little Bit Of This, A Little Bit of That SLM, you should write more often! Your article hit on so many issues that I agree wholeheartedly with. Every topic mentioned is near and dear to me. Pope Francis is a moral leader who said “who am I to judge” and cares about the poor more than anyone else in this world. Bernie Sanders is a close second as a moral leader and he cares about the poor, too. Bernie also cares about the working poor and the middle class folks struggling to stay there. Also veterans like Monica and me. Because Bernie cares so much about us, I am doing all I can to get him elected. I predicted a while ago a landslide victory for Bernie and us! Black Lives Matter! This should not have to be said but it does because of the way black folks are treated in all kinds of situations. As for the gun issue, I was a hunter before I was drafted. When I got home from Vietnam I went hunting with my Brother. Every time I heard a shot I dropped to the ground thinking I was being shot at in Nam again. I went home that evening and sold my rifle and never have gone out hunting again. The NFL is not a nonprofit and should not be treated as such! I like the Pats being a New Englander, and Brady is a great player. Just over paid in my opinion. But he will probably win another Super Bowl. Climate change is as real as it could be! Over 90% of scientists agree and the others have been bought off, not unlike so many politicians! SLM, we seem to agree on all these issues and I bet on many others! Thanks for a great article! Peace and love to you and our brothhers and sisters. » Posted By Nirek On October 10, 2015 @ 4:34 am NRA Applies Its Logic to SC Flood – “Only Way to Stop a Bad Flood is With a Good Flood” Ad, you have captured the “logic” of the TeaPotty “NUTS” perfectly! Their “logic” is illogical!! Huck said something about the shooter being stopped by a cop with a gun. We just learned the other day that that is not true, he killed himself like the coward he was! The NRA is wielding too much power. Most gun owners are honorable people who bought their guns legally. Have hunting permits and have trained in safety. At least here in Vermont. If you have to have a picture ID to drive why not to buy and own a gun? The”NUTS” you mention also want people to have photo license to vote, so they should have to do the same to have their guns. After Vietnam I sold my rifle and quit hunting because I had had enough shooting to last my lifetime. But, some people like shooting at targets, deer, or other game animals. That is fine, but they don’t need automatic weapons for that. I could go on but I would be preaching to the choir. » Posted By Nirek On October 6, 2015 @ 8:29 am Republicans Light the Fuse to Blow Up the U.S. Economy…and Themselves Excellent article AdLib!
» Posted By Nirek On September 29, 2015 @ 4:21 am KT, this is very important for people to know. Many of the people in “prisons for profit” are nonviolent offenders. Users of MJ, or some other crime with no victims. In fact some have been “railroaded” by the “justice”system. Bernie has spoken about this and has taken the action to prove his point. I fear that it will not pass due to the republican “do nothing” congress. Excellent article, KT! » Posted By Nirek On September 23, 2015 @ 3:56 am Weekend Music Thread – All Around the World
» Posted By Nirek On September 20, 2015 @ 3:02 pm The Planned Parenthood Videos: GOP Legislation Based On Major Misrepresentation Murph, what an excellent article! It is a lie and the republicans in Congress have fallen for it. They believe lies instead of facts! Thanks for posting this article, Murph. » Posted By Nirek On September 22, 2015 @ 4:49 am Using Her SuperPAC to Attack Bernie May Hurt Hillary More Than Help Her Monica, if you don’t want to join FB try BernieBlog.org » Posted By Nirek On September 19, 2015 @ 4:37 am Monica, both #Vets4Bernie and #VetsForBernie will get you to our group. I don’t understand #’s but that will get you to the group. Many people join FB using fake names, so it is possible for you to be anomonous if you want to. » Posted By Nirek On September 19, 2015 @ 4:06 am Monica, thanks for all the help you are giving Bernie. I did see the clip of Bernie with Rachel and he was great there as well as where ever he goes. Bernie sticks to the issues. I like that! He refuses to be dragged into personal attacks on hair or looks. I am a member of Vets4Bernie and post a lot on that site. I use my real name there and have no problem giving it here so folks who see what I post is me. I’m (***) aka Nirek which is Kerin spelled backward. I love that Cornell West has endorsed Bernie. Also some Rappers have endorsed Bernie. I’m afraid I don’t know them but I welcome all comers to the Bernie campaign. Bernie has a history of being a civil rights protester that is unblemished! I’ very proud that you are on board and helping because I feel you and I are kindered spirits. As are so many here at PlanetPOV. Peace, my friend. » Posted By Nirek On September 18, 2015 @ 7:45 am Bernie was on CBS this morning. It was excellent. Nora tried to say that Bernie wants the rich to pay 90% income taxes. Bernie said that it doesn’t have to be that high. He said that the rich and corporations need to pay their fair share of taxes. Under Ike the tax rate for the super rich was 90%! But , today they pay less than us middle class folks percentage wise. Bernie wants the tax rates to be progressive. What is wrong with people paying more when they can afford to? Why do they need to stash money off shore? Why do corporations like GE get refunds when they pay zero income taxes? There are many of the BIG corporations paying zero income taxes. This has to change, and Bernie is the man to change it! » Posted By Nirek On September 18, 2015 @ 5:47 am Ad, there is a meme out there that says Jeb!= Just Elect Bernie! » Posted By Nirek On September 18, 2015 @ 5:38 amComments Posted By Nirek
From my heart, I wish you peace.
Thank you for all the work you do to bring us the Morning Blog.
I honestly have no problem with hunting. But no hunter or gun owner has a ligitimate need for automatic weapons!
I agree Boehner failed to lead. He was lead by the ring in his nose by the TeaPotty down the wrong road! Just like Crystal sings “here I go down the wrong road again”
I hope this gets out to everyone because the truth seems to be overlooked by too many voters. Also hope this will be the end of Carly and her campaign.
