Great and really informative article, but the reasons we find the economy in this problem....sm
is all the banking deregulation that has taken place over the past 9 years or so....without any regulations at all, the banks have had free reign to wallow in their greed, invest their investor's money in very speculative and dangerous deals trying to make as much quick money as possible, and when it all blew up in their face, we all are expected to rescue these despicable creatures because the econmomy and wellfare of the nation, its homeowners, small businesses, etc., will just be the true victims suffering every greater losses. Yes, I agree that soem of the article's highlighted practices are very frightening for us, but right now we are facing an unprecedented financial tragedy in this country....blame all the banking deregulation, and those who proposed/allowed it as "free enterprise (interpreted=unbridled greed and robbery) as the horrid lesson here.
informative read

Did you see Palin had to read the papers to find out...
SP did not even know that they were abandoning their campaigning efforts in Michigan until she read it in the paper? 
I hope you can find that link. I'd love to read about that study.
Wouldn't poetic justice be served if it was discovered that the conservative brains lit up on the left side?
PS to where's sam/web sites

I realize I'll get bomb-throwers, but I could care less.  I will probably just ignore it.  These people are literally drunk on Kool-Aid!


There are other forums for overall conservative thinkers.  If you go to activitypit.com, it's for RedEye fans (like me).  The show itself is very funny in my opinion.  Of course, they do have some libs on there, but they don't behave anywhere near like these people.  I've become very good friends with a couple people from there.  I found out one of them lives in the same city as me.  Talk about a small world!  Here are a couple links from RedEye's Activity Pit:


http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/                 On the right side of this there are a lot of places to go.

 



 

There are many more.  Here are a few off the top of my head:

townhall.com

heritage.org

pajamastv.com

newsbusters.org

tammybruce.com

nationalreview.com

hotair.com

michellemalkin.com

newt.org

 

Of course, let us not forget:

rushlimbaugh.com

marklevinshow.com

hannity.com

anncoulter.com

lauraingraham.com

 

Another thing many don't know is that The History Channel is owned/run by libs, so watch with caution.  I personally prefer War Stories with Oliver North on FNC.  Tammy Bruce was formerly president (or whatever they call it) of NOW, but not now.  She has a very interesting story to tell about their ways of doing business.  I wonder if any libs will look into this.  And imagine this, a conservative lesbian!

 

So enjoy, you few conservatives!

 


Here are some others: breitbart.com, http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/, townhall.com,


The other friend, who lives in a very liberal state, was thrilled that she and her husband met ONE conservative couple. 


That was very informative! Thank you.
Can't say I'm shocked, though. I sent it to all my friends and relatives. Even my neighbor, who is a staunch Dem...except for the past 2 elections. He voted Pub, as he says, "the lesser of 2 evils."
This was very informative.
Thank you for posting.  It just makes me wonder even more why certain people are being placed in our governement when they are such obvious crooks!!!!
Very informative
Thanks for posting. I thought I remembered hearing that the Dutch model was a pretty good one, but it was nice reading about a firsthand account. There are a few things that I would have liked to seen answered in the article- cost of living type issues. However, as a person without health insurance (prohibitive cost), it was nice to read an article that presented the positive side of universal health care. I'm sure the NYT made a conscious choice in running this article now, but it was informative and good fodder for thought at a time the nation is discussing- among other things- revamping our system of medical care.
Thanks - going to check out those sites
Thanks for the links.
There are also other far more credible sites...sm
which give valid information as to why it is not real.

The whole point to this, GP, is not JUST the birth certificate. This plays into a much larger picture in which Obama appears to be unqualified in terms of foreign policy and experienced in so many other areas. It has to do with past associations and shady current assoociations, who is backing him, how he rose through the ranks so quickly, some if not all of his campaign platform and plans for this country, some of the statements he has made that sound positively socialist if not marxist and the way the American people have been so capitivated by him. It's not even about McCain being POTUS because I can tell you that, even though I voted for him, I have some doubts about him just as you do about Obama. It is about the safety of our nation, laws being upheld on EVERY level (yeah, I know all about Bush, this isn't about him) and the future of our nation. The BC is just the tip of the iceberg.
There are two sites I checkout
Snopes - which is liberal and Truth or Fiction which is conservative. I figure if I check out both sites I've got it covered.


This is a very informative site.

Thanks for posting it.  I'd be interested in knowing your views on the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty in 1967 (killing 34 American soldiers and wounding 171). 


Also, how do you feel about Israel spying on the United States?


We all pretty much know Hezbollah's/Iran's/Syria's role in all this.  I think it's time we take a good look at the other countries involved in this region including America and Israel.


Again, thank you for a very interesting and informative site.  I hope you keep posting.  I think I can learn a lot from you.


This is really not such an informative site.
This is a very small handful of Jews (I am Jewish) and they are here in the United States.  They have lost touch with what is happening in Israel.  The rest of what you are saying is just confusing to me.  What are you getting at?  To see the few posters on this board, all of a sudden, Israel is the great evil and Hezbollah are saints. It's really sickening.
Very Informative about Immigration

It's 13 minutes long, but well worth it (and no commercials)!


As we prepare for the expected Congressional battles over immigration numbers this fall, it’s a good time to take stock of the urgency of our cause and the tools we have available to help fight for lower immigration numbers.

This video captures the essence of NumbersUSA and is a must-see for anyone who wants to fully understand the basic information behind our work.

Or, you can cut and paste this link into your browser:
http://www.numbersusa.com/content/resources/video/recommended/immigration-numbers.html

There is, perhaps, no better way to quickly understand the essence of NumbersUSA than to watch


this video
. If you haven’t already seen it, you must watch. If you have, I recommend taking another look or forwarding it on to your friends and family.

For more information and feedback on the video, please see my recent blog entry:

Informative site.......

You can scroll down to bottom and find Obama's economic proposals.....


http://www.rightchange.com/


Thanks for the post. Very informative, indeed...
nm
very informative post.

Yes, very informative, but very long.

i hope tihs opens up the eyes of some on this board. I said it before but I was called a liar...now it's in black and white in this paragraph:


"So what do we do now? In 2000, the 106th Congress as its final effort passed the Commodity Futures Modernization Act (CFMA), and, disgracefully, President Clinton signed it. It opened up the bucket-shop loophole that capsized the world's economic system. With the stroke of a presidential pen, a century of valuable protection was lost."


This was so wrong. I agree those at the top of this mess should be prosecuted to the fullest, and not by a slap on the wrist or house arrest. I think the bailout money should be paid back. As it stands, they are being rewarded for failing.


If you or I fail at our job, do we get bonuses? Do we get money from the feds for doing a lousy job? Do we get rewarded for cheating and lying? No...and they shouldn't either.


It sounds like this guy has some faith in Eric Holder, but only time will tell. I doubt Geithner is a good choice and I'm sure if O, Congress and Senate weren't in a such a hurry, they could have chosen more sensibly. What's the rush anywho? The economy is in the dumps and will take a long time to dig out. A few more weeks of looking for the right candidate wouldn't have hurt that much more.


People are still losing their jobs and homes. I don't see anything happening yet except that they want to pass the second stimulus package which STILL does not help the workers that much. Yet they are gung ho to pass it. They just have their mind set on one thing - stimulus, nothing else.


Okay, I'll get off my  again.
 


You avoid the nutball sites? LOL. nm
nm
Oops - your are correct - there are two sites
I had his website saved in my favorites, and that is the one it took me too. When I googled McCains name I saw the one you mentioned (plus I clicked on your link to make sure I wasn't getting different things).

The website I listed has been the official website for a long time. I was even on there just the other day. This is a new one. However, it's still a positive message. Compares the differences between the two without candidates without lying about Obama and has a buttons to the side with different links. Still nothing negative. I don't see anything regarding his family, which is fine, I'm not voting for that reason. I'm voting for what he will do for our country and how he will help us to prosper and be a great nation again. Pretty positive message there.

Again I commend her daughter for getting involved in politics. Always good to know both sides, what each politicians policies are. How they have voted in the past, what they have done in their careers and their experience (or if they even have expereince). It's great for kids to know both sides. Even greater if they learn about the other candidates too like the Independent, Constitution, Green, etc. There are more than just two parties. I'd actually like to see the Republican and Democratic party done away with. They have BOTH done a lot of damage. Especially these past couple years have just gotten worse and worse.
In my opinion, it is an informative site.

You're entitled to your opinion and whether you like it or not, I'm entitled to mine.


And I'm sorry, but as you know, my questions weren't directed at you.  They were directed at objective people who might possibly believe that Israel is not perfect.  Contrary to your vivid imagination, nobody on this board ever said Hezbollah are saints.  I am just trying to explore everyone's role in the recent mideast war, including America's.  It's sad that you feel the search for the truth is sickening.  Your tummy might feel more comfy in the The Israel-Is-Perfect-And-Can-Do-No-Wrong room.  The door is thataway >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


Insead of patronizing me, post some of the sites please. nm
x
I can't remember the exact sites, but will do some more checking - sm
But I do know that 1 of them referred to an Anchorage newspaper article at the time of when it happened; I don't think it was like a recent article in the Anchorage paper. I am terrible, I read stuff and try to get it all straight and forget to write down or take note of where I saw it, but I will look for it again later when I am done working.

It has been noted as a casual aside on many search sites......
That the mega-wealthy are trying to "hide" their wealth. Clothing catalogs for the rich are pushing "dressing down." Those fancy cars are getting garage duty. They did the same thing during the depression - no one drove their Duesenberg (sp?), i.e., "made to order" cars. They can sit out decades in relative comfort, they have high-tech security on their homes. Wouldn't it suck if we didn't dare venture out of our homes? What kind of "freedom" is that!!!!
I visited this site. My brother, who is schizophrenic, goes to sites like this. sm
Sorry, but I don't care for this kind of site on the extreme right or left.  It has no believability.
Yup, forgot Glenn came over from CNN, yes, he has great informative shows....nm

If you know some good democratic blog sites, please respond to this post with the links. nm
Thanks.
Meaning what?
is this a veiled suggestion I move to France?

If so, I got a hot news bulletin for ya, pal: THE FRENCH WERE RIGHT!

Vive la France!
The meaning -
the woman said it was the shadow of death behind Obama...
Is there a meaning in there somewhere? nm
nm
I said *over there* meaning the C board
and you all definitely need to grow some skin. We we question you about ANYTHING you accuse us of stalking and attacking. We are talking with adult liberals over there (the C-board) who understand that true debate is about giving opposite opinions and hashing things out.. a concept which is evidently lost on most of you here.
*The bill is about when and not now, meaning NOW* HUH??

Then let's get out of there and let them control their government.  Let's take off the *training wheels* (like Murtha has been saying) and let them learn to ride their *bike* while we observe from the periphery, there if they need us to *catch* them.  As long as we are there doing it for them, they will never do it on their own.  And by agreeing to amnesty, we're publicly telling the world that the lives of our soldiers aren't important, regardless of how you try to spin it. 


And, yes, the media is eerily silent about this.  The last article I read last week indicated that the Iraqi Prime Minister was AGAINST amnesty for anyone who kills an IRAQI but was in FAVOR of amnesty for anyone who kills AMERICANS.  What a wonderful plan. 


There is more than one meaning for jihad...nm

I didn't come away with that meaning......sm
I read it to mean that if a woman wants an abortion and goes to a doctor or hospital to have it performed, the doctor or hospital cannot not refuse to perform it based on their own religious beliefs.

Very hypocritical, if you ask me (and not direted at you in particular), to say "keep the government out of my uterus because I can do with my body what I want" and then demand a doctor who does not believe in abortion to perform an abortion on you, in essence dragging him into your uterus where he does not want to be doing something he does not want to do.
If this is truly the meaning of the whole thing

fine.  I could never have an abortion because I personally believe it is wrong.  However, if people are bound and determined to terminate their pregnancy, I'd much rather it be done by a professional instead of these girls having babies in bathrooms and throwing them away, going to some whack job who does permanent damage or have some girl take poisonous things into their body to try and get rid of the pregnancy. 


There are pros and cons to abortion whether people want to see it or not.  Abortion will not be stopped and so I have to look at it like population control and just go on about my business.


I think it's the meaning of "more" that evades you. SM
*No more of a radical than Jesus* IS a comparison.
True meaning of Christmas...sm
I have been watching the discussion on the conservative board about Christmas, it's origin and how it is celebrated. While there are a lot of charitable things that go on during the holiday season that are commendable, like Toys for Tots and food drives, I think it is sad how materialistic this season is. If you have kids it is hard to explain to them why one of their classmates got a Playstation 3 (600 dollars), games for the PS3 (200 dollars), laptop (1300 dollars), namebrand shoes and clothes (500 dollars), jewelry (200 dollars), etc, etc, when you can not, or have better sense than to spoil your child (and finances) like this.

My children know the value of a dollar. They also know that this season is about the birth of Christ, the spirit of giving, whether that be love or gifts.

I said all of that to ask this question. Do you think the majority of people who celebrate Christmas know the true meaning of Christmas or are they caught up in the hype of the latest best technology, the best decorations, the most expensive tree?
"present", meaning he showed up, but could not
nm
Hate to say it, but they aren't well-meaning at all s/m

They're blatantly peddling socialism..."spreading the wealth around?"  So if you make more than I do, Obtama will take from you & give some to me.  How can people NOT see this? 


As far asa I'm concerned, these Obama fanatics can move to Canada, Cuba, etc.  Look how well that's workin' for them.

I'm not understanding the meaning of your post
Actually it almost sounds like something Hemmingway would write. HA HA. Anyway...just confused by the post. Are you talking about the record breaking snowfalls and bone chilling cold spells all over the world (oh so not global warming), or are you refering to the incoming president, and the last part of the post just lost me. Please explain.
Do you understand the meaning of the word...(sm)

Kruschev said they (meaning, their philosophy) would take us over from within.
One only has to imagine: Would Kruschev be laughing or crying over the direction the current administration is taking?

Not a tough question to answer, so there's no prize offered.
The real meaning of happy holidays.
Ever since I can remember, and I am 50, everyone said Merry Christmas AND/OR Happy Holidays and no one gave a flip either way. However, in my youthful naivete, little did I realize what happy holidays REALLY means. It is a code. It means that anyone who says it is really saying, I want to take Christ out of Christmas, and by the way, I hate America and I want the communists/terrorists to win.  So if you hear someone say happy holidays and the other person answers back happy holidays you know you have 2 people of interest who require, at the very least, a wiretap or two and surveillance for an indeterminate amount of time. They should be reported immediately to the FBI. Happy Holidays is a serious threat and a Code Orange.
God save us from well-meaning people as my mother

find out. I find sam's posts to the point

Plus - does the Republican party understand the meaning of MAVERICK?
Agree with you - what did they expect with her zero experience (in foreign policy) AND the fact that she's under investigation?

Re: maverick. There are subtle variations of this word like "eccentric" that could apply to just about anyone, but the central meaning is 'nonconformist'

When you look at someone who has VOTED WITH GEORGE BUSH 90% OF THE time, where do you see 'nonconformist'?

And this from a man who was hammered by Bush when they went toe to toe. Please sir can I have another?

I see REPACKAGED MATERIAL, not 'maverick.'

That said, I have TONS of respect for his POW experience - all the MORE reason for him to NEVER ALLOW AMERICA TO ENGAGE IN WARS BASED ON LIES!!!

What's nonconformist about his support for our current fake war?

He should under the banner of HYPOCRITE, not maverick.
Taking it to a new level meaning posting a whole new thread
I still say no response is the best response.
