Time Out for O/T – Vol. 18

PS they look more like brownshirts than girl scouts

Jebus KT there is more to this than some silly girl claiming she did this on her own. Slick videos on their site and the outright hint that Catholic services are involved. I guess she does not realize she looks really stupid for being involved for 8 years and just now realizing what she was hearing? No, the church is behind this.

KT I think I am going to order the book Pentagon Papers for my Kindle. I don’t know as much as I thought I did on the subject.

Ok he must have been referring to that time. You know I don’t even know how Manning feels about his impending trial, perhaps he does know it is the price he has to pay, even though he probably now wishes he had not done the deed. All in all he did not deliver much of significance we already did not know.

I think he was more comparing to the time Jesus was actually on earth and what would happen in today’s world. There were Jews and Gentiles in those times so I suppose similar could apply today. I also imagine a similar sort of scenario would play out.

Then what did Ellsberg go to jail for? He stated in an interview I saw that he went to jail. Perhaps awaiting trial? The point is he was charged with a crime, just as manning is or will be, depending on the UCMJ. I agree he enlightened us about our government but that is different than outing leaders all over the world.

I get it, I guess we just have to agree to disagree on this one. I think he needs to pay for his deed, just like anyone else. He knew the rules and he broke them. Daniel Ellsberg manned up and did his time, but it was worth it to him for what he thought he accomplished. If you want to make a splash, you have to pay the consequences. To many he will be a hero and I am not opposed to sunlight, but if you decide to walk down that road, you have to face whatever you find.

We both got it wrong, I looked at mine and thought it was right but now I see it was UCMJ. I was never in the service………

My sister is a big Oz fan and I was in a TJMaxx one day and found some red shoes that looked just like Dorothy’s shoes. They were a size 10 and my sister, Dorothy consequently, is a size six but I bought them anyway. I also bought her daughter a pair of gold sandals when she was about 5 because she loved the movie Dirty Dancing. My sister wanted to shoot me LOL

I have been around the world on this one. When it first occurred, I thought perhaps he was forcing honesty, but then after reading some of the cables, I am not sure what he thought was righteous in releasing information on comments by world leaders about others. Or why he thought information about State department employees personal thoughts had anything to do with what occurs in military incursions. I gave the analogy of stealing from your employer because that is what he did. Had he done it in any other industry, he would have been prosecuted as well. It is a felony plain and simple. I sure did not find much info in those files of great import that I was no aware of on some level before. Since the Pentagon Papers I have known our military was not on the up and up I did not need Manning to enlighten me.

That was an excellent analysis of the situation. My husband was showing interest in Paul for the very reasons you prescribe until I gave him an intricate lesson on what was behind it all. That is the problem, no one looks behind the doors and under the beds, it is all superficial. And it is one of my pet peeves. I will always probe a generalization. I cannot let it go, but I am usually well versed in the subject after research. Too bad most people are not, they are basically lazy. I think it still goes back to the “me” and “instant gratification” complex.

I know I should not, but I just laughed at that one. Whoever it was had fancy sounding names for them as well. Like a bunch of young kids would seek out the communist party just prior to reacting without real thought. These people are incredible.

Whoever wrote the piece on the LA riots was dead wrong. His claim that the communist party lead the riots in SF was so incorrect I would think it from some fairytale. The police did not react just when the rioters got to the Mark Hopkins or Fairmont hotels, they reacted from the beginning. I know, I watched it all on television. The main riot was on Market Street, not Union Square. It spread out from there to different parts of the city. The police were outnumbered in LA and not at all prepared for SF to light up. Yes, they damaged businesses but it was not just black people, every race was involved and no, they did not target John Bircher businesses, they targeted them all.

In LA, there were many different people involved in the looting and setting fires. One thing not mentioned in the newsletter is it all started because a jury of their peers exonerated all four policemen despite the video showing the beating of Rodney King. IMHO those jurors and that court made a difference in the trial of OJ simpson. I was in LA the day the OJ verdict came down. It was eerie driving down the 5 freeway heading for the valley and listening to the verdict. Here is the pdf file of the article I am referring to.

I always find that interesting as well. It seems money will always trump morals.

I had bookmarked this prior to Christmas and just now read it. It is an interesting blog about the question, What if Jesus were born today?

I was not referring to the information in sections, I was referring to it in total. No matter, I don’t consider these things you mention as trade secrets, the analogy was stealing from your employer. Sorry if you did not get that. If you are referring to his detention, then not processing him according to his constitutional rights is not the right thing to do. Did he have a lawyer? Did he have an arraignment? Was a trial date set? If so, then his sixth amendment rights were upheld. But in the instance of the Armed forces, the UMCJ takes precedence anyway. He was in the service, he knew that, he went ahead and performed his deed, he is at fault.

I use them all for different reasons. Twitter is good for finding news articles quick that other publications might not have. It is also good to harass people like Americans Elect on exactly what they are, 1%ers dressed up to look like the average man, LOL. I passed on some info on Twitter to a group of women who were worried about their smart meters and if they were harming their kids. I sent them the info on Hinkley Ca and how PG&E screwed with the affected people. In fact these gals were saying the utility company was being helpful and I was able to let them know only until the statute of limitations was up because that is exactly what PG&E tried to do. So I like to think you can also be very helpful to people there as well.

Facebook I go to either play a slot game or find out what family is doing that I might not normally see all the time.

Email is for alot of reasons and this site is where I feel I can say what I feel and not be attacked. Sometimes I go to other sites to see what their headlines are and what the trolls are saying.

If you were working for Apple and you gave their trade secrets to Microsoft, do you think Apple would just laugh and indulge your lapse of responsibility?

» Posted By SueInCa On December 28, 2011 @ 6:18 pm

Yes, Kes I can be naughty. I was on a road where there were only 2 lanes and I just felt physically ill to have to look at that for another 10 miles or so.

» Posted By SueInCa On December 27, 2011 @ 1:29 pm

I was kind of shocked they would do that but I guess I should not be knowing the atmosphere in this country now. It seems like some people are hell bent on going backwards.

I could not agree with you more. But I say, let the games keep on going. The more this stuff is addressed, the more irrelevant they become.

When I really want to ram their car lol. I admit I did it once to such a car, but the back end was loaded with those stupid stickers. So I passed them up and flipped them off. Never have done it again, I don’t want to be included in their class.

NO religious institute has the right to tell any woman what her options are with sex, birth control or any other act only women can experience. To me, that is the same as telling her she is a second class citizen.

It is a badly worded tweet for sure and I would only expect such crap from Maher. I don’t agree with Tebow and his obvious fawning over his religion but it is up to the NFL to address it. I personally am always suspicious of someone who feels the need to shove his religion in everyone’s face. However if he is truly some phony, he will out himself, all in good time. His downfall would be far worse on it’s own and Maher is not going to force it any sooner by tweets like that.
