Is anyone watching The Men Who Built America?


Posted: Nov 11, 2012

On History Channel.

Lots of good info.  The segment now starts out with McKinley vs Bryan.  Many parallels to contemporary politics. 

But politics is definitely not the major focus.  More of an economic narrative.   Good stuff if you get a chance to tune in.

Thanks, Bootstraps. I'll check it out. - nm

After Watching 2016: Obama's AmericaAug 28, 2012
I understand Obama's drive to socialism. It's really anti-colonialism that his father and grandfather pursued, and now he is as well. In this movie, Obama is heard reading from his own book, Dreams from My Father, which lays out the theme of the movie. Obama has major plans to drive America to its knees economically and lead us in the direction of being like third-world countries. Spread the wealth around. I probably did not explain myself very well, so maybe the best advice I ...

The Most Important Wiileaks- How Wall Street Built The ObamaNov 18, 2016
Perhaps the most startling discovery of the WikiLeaks dumps so far didn't come from the most recent emails surrounding the various Hillary scandals, though there are many great ones, but from 2008 when John Podesta served as co-chair of President-elect Barack Obama’s transition team. The email came from Michael Froman, a former Citibank executive, who single-handedly built the entire cabinet of what was supposed to be the "main street" President. Just remember this when the MSM ...

Is Anyone Watching The GOP Debate On CNN?Feb 22, 2012
What are your thoughts about the questions and how the candidates are answering them?  Has anyone decided for sure who to vote for (if you're voting in the primaries or caucuses)?  I'm still undecided, so if you have decided, I would appreciate some input as to why you chose that candidate. ...

Anybody Else Watching The Voice?Jun 08, 2011
I started watching it in the beginning just because of Adam Levine, and I've found I'm loving it the way Americal Idol used to get me.  I love the banter between the coaches, though Christina gets a little too crude for me sometimes.  But I like her otherwise.  What do you think of the talent?  I voted for Frenchie Davis today. Nobody on Blake's team impressed me much.  I think Xenia's got a lot of potential, but she's obviously too young, and p ...

Anyone Watching NFL Playoffs?Jan 09, 2010
Anyone into the games this weekend?  I am hoping for Dallas and GB to win.  I'd rather face either of them than Arizona or Philly in the divisional round next week.  My Vikings have caused me much Super Bowl and playoff trauma over the years and I'm not expecting much but hoping for the best.  Favre really gives us a good chance.  I'm anxious to see what happens today.  I'll be a wreck by next week (they play on my birthday - the last time that ...

Liberals will suffer another disastrous election in 2018 because they can't figure out why they've already suffered 3 sequential disasters in a row that have cost them governorships, state legislatures and control of the federal government. Middle America has decided not to tolerate any more of their nonsense: BLM. Sanctuary cities. Open borders. Disgraceful behavior in Congress, boycotting the inauguration and confirmation committee meetings. Using extreme and misleading lang ...

I have followed this case since this child first went missing. Honestly I could not have been a juror as I feel that this girl is guilty, have for a very long time. The fake nanny, fake friends, fake job, fake trips to the beach, child missing for goodness knows how long and the mom is out partying and having a good time, how could she do it? Even if she killed her child by accident, how could she go out and do all of the partying that she was doing with no remorse, no guilt, nada? Watching ...
