Don't tell us, tell people worried about it. We now have an Ebola Tsar, whatever that is supposed to help. The President is a fink. |

He was able to explain, blowback and overreach quite well. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | Do to trade agreements we do not have the right to even know where our food comes from let alone what's in it. http://www.citizen.org/pressroom/pressroomredirect.cfm?ID=4293 The new TPP and TAFTA will be shocking and demoralizing in scope. We get sued for 100's of billions by other countries for not being fair and accepting they're crap. Do you ever get some inkling that somehow what you see and hear about inflation doesn't equal your personal experience? A short but very informative video that explains why and how. Easy to grasp how GDP is fudged and a lot more, listen to it in the background if you can't sit for a spell. http://http://www.peakprosperity.com/blog/88158/fuzzy-numbers-crash-course-chapter-18 Coincidence or Cartel??

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | A poll taken by pew of most and least trusted news sources. http://www.journalism.org/interactives/media-polarization/table/distrust/ Funny that, the first one I even consider paying any attention to is #13, shows what can happen when you are a news junkie.

It's funny that the two most mistrusted are also the two ratings killers. Rush and Fox are so out front of everybody else it isn't even a race. So either people are listening to those they don't trust, which would be pointless, or polls are meaningless. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Look at the chart again. It goes by groups who trust's who's news source. The way I see it the very conservative group trusts the top group the most and at least on my part no insult intended, the left distrusts him the most. My news sources don't even show at all. I am not surprised though. It's just fyi, I don't expect anyone to change their mind. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

terapined Member since: Aug 6, 2014 Threads: 73 Posts: 11804 | Kimberly Guilfoyleof Foxnews said Tuesday that young women should excuse themselves from voting in the upcoming midterm elections because they don't share the same "life experience" as older women and should just go back to playing around on Tinder and Match.com. Wow, I encourage EVERYBODY to vote. Even republicans. Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I do not encourage ANYONE to voe. Last thing I want is uninformed people thinking it is "cool" to vote and picking a candidate for some silly reason. Let the uninformed stay home and watch whatever junk they watch on TV. The President is a fink. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | The irrefutable evidence shows that the cop in Ferguson was attacked in his car by the black kid. The eyewitnesses lied, there will be no charges. Time for Obama and Holder to call for the arrest of the authorities who made this call.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You beat me to it. I'd be happy if most people stayed home. I suppose that's one good thing about the Kardashians; anyone that's so absorbed so as to miss voting is a vote better off left uncast. Enjoy it while it lasts. My coup has been a long time in the making, and there's not many years left that you'll get this opportunity (smiley / winky purposely omitted) I have never voted. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |
