Educating the Masters

Kihrad, I certainly do look forward your informative posts. It certainly an evolving situation. Did it not take over a year to bring down the Shah? Rafsanjani is a mysterious character to me, good guy- bad guy? Power hungry or benefactor? Again, thank you.

Khirad, I have to echo both javaz and nellie’s comments!!Always enlightening and well researched.
I am always intrigued with the Persian/Farsi language. The poetry of their phrasing. To the western ear one asks “I think I know what you mean…” The certainty of ambiguity.

A warning about trolls

J’avaz, moment of weakness? 😛

Kalima, I’m always good. actually, my lymph nodes are swelling, and I get worried and tired. Other than that, I’m chipper. (bit of a disturbance this morn)

Good morning Dear Ms. Kalima, I wish you well!

KK, I have no”our relationships” with HuffPO.
I am done with that situation. I do not want to see it brought over here. If you choose to disagree with AdLib,QK, K7 and Kalima, so be it. The rules were made and made with a reason. Everyone has a choice!

As AdLib said the proof is in the pudding. Involve yourself in a discussion with a civil POV.

Sue, I am beyond photogenic. 🙂

AdLib, It was not a very good start this morning on sincerity from the new member.

My pleasure, Sir.
If it was past 9:00 I was sleep walking.

Hey, didn’t I see you at the 7-11 last night? 😆
Thank you for your thoughts. This place gets better an better.

Pepe, I caught on. I was the only one here at the time and thought a “welcome” was appropriate for the first post

Monk, I was wonder the some thing. Interesting comments were left by Sol.

Welcome to PPOV, Sol, You will find this a warm and nice home. Spirited and thoughtful discussions; where the adults stay.

Monk, That is one thing that ticks me off about him. His nappies were khaki.

» Posted By bito On December 8, 2009 @ 8:04 pm

Pepe, close to that. Is that AC?

KK, I believe she has already posted here under a different name.

» Posted By bito On December 8, 2009 @ 5:32 pm

Yep. Like a good Swede she went to Valhalla to rest for the next battle.

Lots of rain and really windy. I don’t see any snow on the Mts. from my shack. I will have to check the local news.

“I’m a troll, from a deep dark hole,
My belly’s getting thinner,
I need to eat–and goat’s a treat–
So I’ll have you for my dinner.”

A few things to say about HuffPo, trolls and the whole site.
A few months ago, Nichole and I were battling a bunch of trolls.Back an forth, to and fro. We were arguing on a story with a misleading headline and no sourcing or facts to justify the story. It wasn’t so much what the story purported, it was that it was complete fantasy. Some of my comments were getting scrubbed and I thought to myself “this is stupid, this is a waste of time and energy.” I have this thing about sourcing and some facts to back up a reasonable opinion, without them, it is fiction.

I came over to PPOV and not been back to comment since that day. There are too many other sites to read that are thoughtful and serve up opinions with some basis of fact.

No offense to Pepe or anyone else. I don’t miss the site and i find the whole discussion about trolls and what they are saying–Boring!

The New Face of the Senate Health Care Bill

Kalima, I’m fine. That’s what I tell myself all the time.~smile~. Hope you are good and your ailments are giving you a respite today.

Hello Dear Kalima, Hubby home yet?

» Posted By bito On December 8, 2009 @ 7:38 pm

Good Job Kalima,

“We can’t disclose the details of what we’ve done but believe me we’ve got something that is good, that I think is very good,” Reid said. “For us it moves this bill way down the road.”

“All of the pieces have to fit together before anyone agrees on anything, but in that area we have pretty good consensus,” said Schumer of New York.

And that is why I am waiting. It still ha to go through CBO

AdLib, sorry I don’t have a link, but Reuters is reporting something different. And they have a quote from Reid. I am still waiting till I hear something from Harry.

» Posted By bito On December 8, 2009 @ 7:16 pm

But like Bernie said —the PO that they had was weak and this may be better. We will have to wait and see.
of course, I am sure some one has a headline screaming:
PUBLIC OPTION DROPPED!! in about 5….4…3…

Reid and breaking news “We have a broad agreement” What ever that is?
Also Benie Sanders will be on Rachel’s show.
