Here's what I love about living in America

even among Republicans, according to a survey from Pew Research. But the group is still potent within the Republican Party — which means that Sen. Ted Cruz gets a bit of good news on an otherwise bleak day. "Tea Party" is a necessarily vague affiliation. There are members of Tea Party groups, of course, but Pew largely had to allow poll respondents to self identify. And a lot of Republicans did so. About four-in-ten (41%) Republicans and Republican leaners agree with the Tea Pa ...

We used it and it was pretty good! Definitely adds another element into the mix, something fun to play with! As for the prude (s) who commented on my original post, she (they) should probably consider picking some up...maybe melt some of the ice off them and they might actually enjoy the S-word (OMG, don't want to offend or gross anyone out)! ...

Wasn't sure which board to put this on but am wondering if there are any MTs who live in and work from Alaska? Thought has crossed my mind to maybe move there and am wondering about the weather, cost of living, etc. Appreciate any info from someone who lives up there. :) Thanks ...

I've taken to very frugal living. It's not that hard really. Coupons, repurposing, etc. Anyone here want to share some of their more frugal habits?!? ...

How good does it make you feel?Basically only having a house payment if that.Rather owning older items so more money is not used then needed.Of course we may all have nicer items if we won a few million, since that is not the case we do what we can. ...

Okay, before anyone replies with "you're the only one who can change things" or anything like that, I know that already. I know not to be living in a dream world, be grateful for what I have, etc. I know all that stuff. I'm just wondering if there are other people who feel like they are living in a different life they are not meant to be in. I don't know how to describe it. I feel like I'm in limbo or something. I was pulling up some differ ...

http://www.storyleak.com/are-you-living-in-fourth-amendment-exclusion-zone/ Major cities like New York City, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and even Houston have been declared by the Department of Homeland Security to be within the official 100 mile ‘border’ of the United States, subjecting 197 million citizens to electronic belonging searches without any suspicion. It all started in 2008, when the DHS declared that certain ‘border control agents’ could search the ele ...

I moved mom in with me about a month ago. I work second shift full time in my home. Even before I moved mom in, I would see her daily in her home, see she was eating properly, setting her pills out, etc. She recently had cataract surgery and recovered fine. We've put her home up for sale and she's none too pleased but I thought she would adjust to living with me. Our homes are similar, and I made her bedroom in my own look exactly like hers, bath ...

"According to a Senate aide, the White House is now threatening to put Nebraska’s Offutt Air Force Base on the BRAC list if Nelson doesn’t fall into line. Offutt Air Force Base employs some 10,000 military and federal employees in Southeastern Nebraska. As our source put it, this is a “naked effort by Rahm Emanuel and the White House to extort Nelson’s vote.” They are “threatening to close a base vital to national security for what?” asked the Senate ...

This article by Jane Mayer is a must-read if you're thinking about voting for Trump.' ...

Stay safe. Watching Weather Channel and it's snowing like crazy in Point Pleasant, NJ. Nor'easter has hit with snow and wind. How much more can they take? So far, we're lucky here. Nothing going on. We still had over 4,000 homes without electric on Monday from Sandy. We'll be getting the NE winds and whatever comes with it later. ...

Saw this posted on a political board - sorry, can't remember where: 1) Only in America could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000 a plate campaign fund raising event.2) Only in America could people claim that the government still discriminates against black Americans when we have a black President, a black Attorney General, and roughly 18% of the federal workforce is black. 12% of the population is black.3) Only in America could we have had the two people most ...

My brief, backbreaking, rage-inducing, low-paying, dildo-packing time inside the online-shipping machine. A journalist reports what it's like on the job in a warehouse filling on-line orders; 31 years old and she hurts bad after 2 mandatory-overtime days, link to a very interesting and eye-opening article at bottom. "I'm assigned a schedule of Sunday through Thursday, 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. When additional overtime is necessary, which it will be soon (Christmas!), I shoul ...

A translator at refugee camps in Germany has claimed Muslim migrants hate Christians and want to Islamize the country. The woman, 39, from Eritrea, came to Germany as a refugee herself in 1991, before volunteering at asylum centers to “give something back.” But the Arabic speaker said what she discovered when working with migrants over the last five years shocked her. During her time at a number of centers across the country, she said she discovered Muslim refugees preaching “pure ...

This is an attempt to trump Trump. Trump and others have accused him of being too calm and too soft-spoken, so he is trying to prove and remind people that he has had a temper in the past --- perhaps before anti-anxiolytics? Please, people, you must go with Rubio. Will the Republican party wake up and realize the joke is on them soon enough. The pathology of the Trump and Carson phenom must be revealed. ...

"All I ask is that you consider the suggestion here. The entire Congress of the United States is corrupt. And I mean both Houses and I mean both major parties.. I realize that a few Members of each House are trustworthy, but, as a group they are absolutely the most corrupt bunch to ever disgrace our Nation. In November of 2010 the entire House of Representatives will stand for re-election; all 435 of them. One third of the Senate, a total of 33 of them, will also stand ...

“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenrycapable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency.It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obamapresidency than to restore the necessary common senseand good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to havesuch a man for their president. The problem is much deeperand far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptomof what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should notblind anyone to the vast confedera ...

http://video.pbs.org/video/1610726967 A documentary of 400 years of religion and political history of the the United States. First episode very interesting. You could make many comparisons between the Irish Catholic experience and the current Muslim experience. ...

After reading the problems with neighbors on here I'd like to input one of my pet peeves. Men or women who cuss in public loud enough for everyone to hear. I was at the mall and this guy was on the cell phone Fing this and Fing that. I gave him "the look" and he just got louder. What ever happened to common curtousy. Like saying excuse me in the store when you walk in front of someone? Like the teenagers who throw stuff out of the car and the people ...

This column has been updated to include a reaction from the IMF.The International Monetary Fund has just dropped a bombshell, and nobody noticed.For the first time, the international organization has set a date for the moment when the "Age of America" will end and the U.S. economy will be overtaken by that of China.And it's a lot closer than you may think.According to the latest IMF official forecasts, China's economy will surpass that of America in real terms in 2016 — just five ...

Did you see the little girl from Pittsburgh last night? It actually almost freaked me out, hearing an adult voice coming out of a child. I expected her to be an excellent singer, but I did not expect her to sound like a 30-year-old! Then, of course, there was the dental floss and Howie Mandell thing . . . . ...

Hello to all you great MTs: I am trying to get my hands on the book, "Can America Survive?" It is by John Hagee, yes he is a minister, doctor, author, even termed..great visioner..or whatever. I have read and heard some parts of the book and let me tell you, it is sound, truly believable, and well, scary. It put me in the "know" about what is going on in our world today. I have to admit, I am mad, but I have come to the conclusion that I must not get this way. Who wants to feel this way after r ...
