U.N International Day of Peace

"Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind. War will exist until that distant day when the consciencious objector, enjoys the same reputation, and prestige, as the warrior does today." ~ JFK ~ ...

Not that Miss Universe matters squat to me, but it is notable that Mexico has pulled out of the competition, NBC has refused to air it and others are deeply offended by Trump's bumbling inappropriate analogies and accusations. I truly hope the Republicans get it together enough to declare a candidate with more political acumen than this. Surely, the people of the United States have not become this coarse and ugly, not to mention just plain naive and incorrect as to believe hi ...

New commission can make decisions without even notifying Congress. UNITED NATIONS Congress would be cut out of decisions impacting the national economy and laws under the terms of an international agreement President Obama has negotiated and intends to sign. The pact also essentially moves the national economy out from under the constraints of the U.S. Constitution. The administration on Thursday finally released the text of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a global regulatory deal it h ...

[In other words, my geology professor was 100% correct--40 YEARS AGO--in what he taught us was happening. Note that the GOP base has spent those 40 years internalizing the lies they adopted so completely that it is STILL insisting that almost 100% of scientists agree that, IF warming is happening, humans have nothing to do with it. How will we ever explain what we've done to our grandchildren?] Climate Panel Cites Near Certainty on Warming Tim Wimborne/Reuters A new report from ...

Income Inequality May Take Toll on Growth By ANNIE LOWREY WASHINGTON — Income inequality has soared to the highest levels since the Great Depression, and the recession has done little to reverse the trend, with the top 1 percent of earners taking 93 percent of the income gains in the first full year of the recovery. The yawning gap between the haves and the have-nots — and the political questions that gap has raised about the plight of the middle ...

Emissions continue to grow so rapidly that an international goal of limiting the ultimate warming of the planet to 3.6 degrees, established three years ago, is on the verge of becoming unattainable, said researchers affiliated with the Global Carbon Project. The new figures show that emissions are falling, slowly, in some of the most advanced countries, including the United States. That apparently reflects a combination of economic weakness, the transfer of some man ...

I'm passing this on because it worked for me today. A doctor on TV said to have inner peace we should finish things we started, and we all could use more calm in our lives. I looked around my house to find things I'd started and hadn't finished, so I finished off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of Chardonnay, a bodle of Bailey's, a butle of wum, tha mainder of Valiuminun scriptins, an a box a chocletz. Yu haf no idr how fablus I feel rite now. Sned this to all who need i ...

Just another reason for me to believe that the Nobel Peace Prize is a complete joke. I'll admit that I think the last line of the article is funny: A message has been widely retweeted on Twitter today: "Obama has now fired more cruise missiles than all other Nobel Peace prize winners combined." Doh! The other part I like is that Morales won the Gaddafi International Prize for Human Rights in 2006. What? I looked it up. It's look like it's true. ...

There is pure evil on this board and throughout the radical liberal extremist communities who are propagating hate and bullying through the media, Hollywood, college campuses, etc. It's hard to believe that this evil and hatred exists. One can only imagine what would have happened if Republicans had exhibited this type of behavior when Barack Hussain Obama won in November 2008. Let us take this most sacred day and pray for peace on earth and good will toward men. Amen. ...

Please stick to issues and do not make this board personal. This is a place for people to discuss politics. Do not harrass other posters for posting their opinions regardless of whether or not you agree. If you quote a poster, please make sure you are quoting the correct poster. Do not state quotes that posters said if they did not say it. Do not stalk other posters and harrass them. This is not a place for that behavior. Thank you, Moderator ...

Liz Taylor passed. I was watching a show last night about "best movies of all time". They named "Gone with the Wind" as the best. I don't think there was a Liz Taylor movie. Then I heard about Ms. Taylor's passing today. It made me kind of melancholy. Remember when actors and actresses actually had to have talent? They had to sing and dance and be able to ACT. Today, it seems there is so much gratuitous sex and violence and a plethora o ...

According to a report from the Agence France Press agency this week President Obama did not win the confidence of a majority of the five member panel before being awarded the Nobel Committee's Peace Prize late last week. Even though the committee's secretary told the press on Friday that the committee's decision had been unanimous, it appears that the members of the committee have a different recollection of how the decision unfolded. The representatives of the Norwegian Conser ...

Just wondering what yall think ...

I suppose if Obama can get it for doing nothing, Putin can get it for invading a country. Makes perfect sense. See Reuter's. ...

I have been hurt so much in life by family and these medical transcription companies and I have an empty nest right now in the home, all contributing to my horrible sleep habits. Sleep is like food and water. We all need it. Please pray that I can overcome horrible sleep habits or lack of sleep habit. and pray for my children. thanks in advance. ...

taking a hit out on DT. Typical. ...

reverse himself on countless issues and rewrite his own past statements, especially the GM bankruptcy thing. The hawk was momentarily MIA. Fact checkers are going to have a field day. ...

In a fresh rebuke to Benjamin Netanyahu, President Barack Obama said the Israeli leader's pre-election disavowal of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict makes it "hard to find a path" toward serious negotiations to resolve the issue. In an interview with the Huffington Post, Obama also scolded Netanyahu over his remarks about Arab Israelis voting, making clear that the deep rift in relations between Israel and the United States, its most important ally, is not ending ...

This isn't quite political but I know I can get answers here. Their slogan is "strengthening democracy by limiting corporate interference in national and international policy-making so that ordinary people can hold corporations accountable for their actions......' I just heard this on TV and decided to look them up. They want to retire Ronald McDonald because he "promotes unhealthy kids." She showed up at the shareholder meeting and spoke against Ronald McDonald. When do ...
