Politics??

agree that no matter the party we all love to see our athletes competing in the Olympics, including Ann Romney's horse. I was wondering what others here would say was their favorite part of the Olympics. I love watching all the competitions but my absolute favoite is at a US Gold medal ceremony when they play the National Anthem. Canada is also my very close neighbor and "Oh Canada" is a favorite too when the Canadians win. ...

It's all about the jobs, or the lack thereof in the Age of Obama. Mike Rowe of "Dirty Jobs" fame will campaign with the GOP ...

Solve the problem by getting rid of the politics board! ...

Wouldn't it be great if we had an MT union (not going to happen; too late for that) and we see headlines that say, "We are troubled because union MTs make 12% MORE than non-union MTs." Just a thought. I think that might be a very good thing. ...

politicians are the ones who tell their constituants what they want to hear even if they have to lie thereby leaving the honest politicians who tell their constituants the honest if painful truth out in the cold. In politics, it seems that honesty is not always the best policy. As with anything else in our dysfunctional society, follow the money, only worse now that the SCOTUS has ruled that a coorporation is a person and can donate their limitless funds to the political parties of their ...

Rumors and Partisan Politics by lisa, May 18, 2010, at 10:40 am J.L. Bell at Oz and Ends counted the number of rumors about President G.W. Bush and President Obama that were identified and determined by rumor-validation site, snopes.com, to be true, false, a mixture of true and false, or uncertain. It turns out, there are a lot more rumors and a lot more false rumors about Obama than there were about Bush: Jay Livingston summarizes: In less than two years, Obama rumor-monger ...

I guess the progressives finally got through and brought the conservatives into the light. Bright, sunny day. Course there are a few that only come out at night to drip, but we'll get them too eventually. ...

Thank you all for sticking with issues regarding politics. I just deleted a thread below that started down the line of religion, and the messages got pretty wild/bad. So I deleted the first message that started the discussion about relgion. Just a friendly reminder to stick to political issues. Thanks to everyone who posts here. Moderator ...

I have been thinking how boring and pointless this Board has gotten in the last couple of months with the incessant Obama bashing and anything Democratic or liberal. I noticed that apparently I am not the only one thinking this because next to each post there is the counter that says how often a post is viewed. I notice that most original posts barely get over 50 hits and most secondary posts get maybe 10 to 25. I did a random search of the achives and found that th ...

So much of this board is just slinging slime. There are real political issues to discuss other than National Enquirer land. We're headed strong into mid-term elections and there are real issues out there. ...

Well, since it's very quiet on the forum today, I thought I'd post something I initially read on Friday on paper in the WSJ, but I couldn't find the exact article online, so I posted the same story from my other favorite, the Washington Post: Pope Francis and the vatican announced a treaty that recognized the Palestinian state, and he also conferred two 17th century Palestinian nuns for canonization. Even if you're not Catholic or you don't agree with him, ya gott ...

my heart goes out to those parents. ...

The messages here are becoming too personal and have nothing to do with politics. This is a political discussion board. Please refrain from insulting posters and using other posters monikers. We need to bring the board back to its intent. If you do not wish to discuss politics please use one of the other boards to direct your non-political discussions. Thank you, Moderator ...

I can bring up other topics. Weird. Who do I contact for help. ...

I am reading down the board and lots of posters are insulting other posters. Some have got insults mixed in with the subject matter it's becoming difficult to find where it starts. Insults are coming from all over. I am asking everyone once again to please refrain from insulting other posters. Lets all be adults and discuss the topics that are important to us. I know posters are pushing the buttons, but try and ignore them and just stick to the topics. We real ...

Taylor wrote that one group or individual is informing citizens "that they need ...

It seems a better place to post such a message would be on the "Prayer Requests" forum. That could be a record...in a little over two hours, some people here have made this tragedy political. Just sad... Thank you. ...

By taking responsibility for the lack of security in Benghazi, I think she may have just blown her own future. Is she hoping that it will all be forgotten by 2016? What the heck was she thinking? To cover for the President and VP is absolutely the wrong thing to do. Hillary may have to share some of the blame but let's put the blamed where it belongs. Right at the top. The way this story comes out, it's all in her lap...another one bites the dust. Does the WH have something on her and ...

Election 2012 Marks the End of Evangelical Dominance in Politics By Jonathan Merritt And that just might help save the evangelical movement Jerry Falwell, seen giving a news conference in 1985 before a trip to the Philippines, urged the U.S. to offer aid to fight Communists insurgents in the country. (Reuters) Ever since Ronald Reagan was elected president in 1980, evangelicals have been a powerful political force. Jerry Falwell and his Moral Majority organization were credited ...

I used to be an astrology fan but don't give much credence to it anymore, figure it's mostly just ideas of reference and self-fulfilling synchronicity, but the effects of Mercury Retrograde, on communication in particular, is the one aspect of it that I just can't let go of yet. Especially since it's uncanny how often I can just "tell" one is happening or about to be happening, like now. Forewarned is forearmed. Me, I'm just going to go sit on my thumbs ...

While I understand the reasoning behind the moving of some hateful posts from the Politics board onto the Gab board due to the fact that they were not "political", I really do not appreciate them having been "dumped" into the Gab board either. some of us would rather stay away from the politics board due to the negative, horrifically snotty, rude, instigating posts made there by people with a propensity for hate and bullying. Now those types of people will "migrate" to the gab board just to co ...

"When we label someone, we do two things. We exert control over another person and assume our own superiority and power. We also dismiss or relegate the person being labeled to a status that is less fully human than our own. It is a combustible mix. The need to label typically emerges from our own insecurity, despair about our situation or a perceived threat from another." ...

Not only do we have health care issues but the politics of this debacle should tell you something about Donald Trump that many of you don't want to admit. He makes promises based on total lack of information - promises that he cannot keep. If he was behind this bill, why didn't he work harder to get it passed? He is lazy and ignorant with no idea of how government works or how complicated issues are. ...

Note: During Boehner's statement, he said, "We don't have a revenue problem. We have a spending problem." Obama said they are close. There is NO agreement as of yet. Democrats are still at $33B. The White House is insisting the top number is $73B but that ALSO includes the $43B already cut in the short term budgets to keep the government running. The budget cuts the Democrats want are not cuts at all according to the Republicans. "It's just smoke and mirrors." It looks lik ...
