In Reply to: Isn't it interesting.....sm - media bias

Haven't been here in a couple days
I just saw this message and wanted to write back. I did vote for Clinton in his first term. I really liked what he was offering for the country. Was a better choice than Bush Sr. After 4 year of those 2 bozos (and the Gores) in there I voted for Dole (I think it was Dole running - its been too many years). Then when Mr. Stiff (gore) was running I thought no way, we finally are getting rid of those two ninny's so voted for Bush, then when Kerry ran I didn't vote cos I didn't like any. So I go back and forth. I read history. No matter what candidate you support, no matter how much you like them you have to be objective and look at the bad with the good and to me we need a person with better values than Clinton. We were so "zonked" (for lack of better term) with so many taxes with clintons were in it was awful. We never got ahead and never had anything. They showed exactly how much they cared about the low to middle income people - it's called NADA, nothing, zip, zilch, and screw you. They took care of their rich friends, lobbyist, and CEO executives while the rest of us literally got screw over big time. So, no I'm not left wing or right wing. I vote my conscious. Can't stand Rush Limbo, Hannity (the Leprecaun) and the absolute nonsense they speak. On the flip side I cannot stand the liberal talk shows either. I can't even think of the names of any of them cos I turned them off years ago and became a much better informed and calmer person. I just read both sides of opinions and make my own choices.
I have been wondering too. She has been MIA for a couple of days now. nm

Rwanda, 800,000 dead in 100 days. sm
They pleaded for help from the UN and Clinton.  No one helped them.
I posted about this a couple days ago....nobody cared.....sm
More scary stuff from the Obama campaign.



Just wait till they tax us to death.



Be sure not to give the govt your credit card numbers.



I'd laugh and say this is a joke, but who knows what will happen if and when he gets to office.
You say weakness, I say great confidence in the last couple of days
You should watch the news some. Countries all over the world are praising the US for the election of Obama. I take great pride in perhaps the restoration of our image as the leader of the free world and you should do. What weakness you speak of, I have no idea.
interesting article, have read many similar these past few days...

The problem is that Israelis believe (sm)
that the entire area is thier land - Manifest Destiny, if you will - and who agreed to what years ago really doesn't matter.
this is not right: When the Israelis pulled out of
Gaza in 2005, they destroyed all houses and everything that might be useful to the Palestinians. And now they are destroying the very livelhood of the Palestinians in the Westbank, their olive trees, their agriculture and their houses.
Those doggone Israelis are just sooo touchy...
I mean they get angry just because Hamas randomly shoots missles into their cities so I understand the outrage from the media.

I agree with this commentary

"This is really so completely ridiculous. For days the Muslim Hamas goons in Gaza launch rockets at Israeli civilians. The "Arab world" is quiet. Then Israel retaliates and the "Arab World' suddenly goes nutso. How long do we tolerate this asinine double standard?

Where was the Arab world when those rockets were being fired at innocent Israelis? Sitting on their butts and shutting the h@!! up, that's where .. and the same goes for much of the oh-so-enlightened European Union. Then Israel retaliates and the world is coming to and. Everybody tells Israel to be careful about causing civilian casualties. Do any of you remember "the world" telling Hamas to be careful about where they aim those rockets? Did "the world" warn Israelis about civilian casualties among the so-called "Palestinians?"

Hamas tells Israel that if they don't stop their assault then Hamas is going to resort to suicide bombings. Are you believing this? Hamas feels free to fire rockets indiscriminately into the Israeli civilian population. They're telling Israel that if it tries to stop them from playing with their rockets, they'll move on to suicide bombs. In other words ... the message is that Israel just has to endure the rocket attacks and do nothing in return. 

Israel is to be admired here. They have a civilian population to protect, and the h@!! with world opinion. When "the world" shows as much concern for innocent Israelis dying under Hamas rocket barrages as it does for Palestinians, then maybe Israel will listen.


It's better off dead than dead AND rude and OBNOXIOUS.
Please respect the monitor's rules, even though you think they're stupid. 
Nope, 4 years 11 days (1471 days or 1383 til 11/4/2012)
You do really need to learn how to count until 11/4/2012 or 1/20/2013.

Also, sorry to hear in four years you won't care anymore.
Go home Obama! Go home McCain!
t
What part of 60-plus days of his first 100 days...sm
don't you understand. I think it's obvious to anyone actually researching his movements what his main goals are - and I don't in my wildest dreams see how in the world he can keep spending as he has been and wants to continue doing and cut the deficit in half by end of his term. IMO his chances are running out quickly. God help us all!
whats fair is fair
Truth is, what is good for one is good for the other.  If Palin puts herself out there, she is a target.  But then so is Obama.  The problem is that when you say anything about O people go crazy.  When someone says something about Palin, its just true. 
Please don't tell me what to be concerned about. SM
I don't think any of us need a lecture on Christian belief systems and the Bible.  We should ALL be concerned, interested and knowledgable about what is happening in Israel.  I seriously do not understand where you are coming from at all.  Your placating tone reminds me of a mother comforting a child who has just gotten a boo boo.  If you don't want to be concerned about Israel and what is happening, fine, don't join in the discussion, but to say that Americans, most especially Christian Americans, have no need to worry their little heads is not only bizarre, it is insulting. 
This is what I am concerned about sm
They will create another incident and we will get martial law. They gave themselves that power with the Patriot Act, and are just waiting for the incident to enact it. You are right, God bless us all. One never knows how a cornered animal will act - very scary.
You obviously are not concerned about...sm
your children, maybe you don't have any, or maybe you are a pedophile. Why don't you think this is not important?

I'm much more concerned
about Obama saying that he had visited 57 states in the US.  LOL!  Sorry pal.....there aren't that many states in the good ole US of A.  Personally, I think that is much worse considering that is our own country compared to a man who doesn't know who the prime minister is of another country.
You should be concerned

How is it that Obama just "happens" to have these neighbors:   Louis Farrakhan, William Ayers, & Rev. Wright?


So are you saying that you don't think there's any involvement with these men in the last 10 years (or less)?  If so, you'll be in for a huge surprise as more info comes out.  Frankly, I'm amazed at how lethargic the public has been, just accepting anything the driveby media reports (more like FAILS to report)!


You have every right to be concerned.
The frenzy that has come about through all of this is like regressing us back to the 50s, and there are a lot of crazies out there that might be thinking about vigilante-style retribution -- on either side depending on who wins.  I believe we might be in for some trying times.  Be safe.
As far as I'm concerned
it's all in the definition of "brother" and "sister."  My brothers and sisters are those I see in need, not necessarily my biological brothers and sisters.  I haven't heard Obama (or McCain for that matter) describe who they consider their  "brothers" and "sisters."
I am not the only one concerned
Who is worried, scared and fearful for our country.  I feel sorry for you who does not see the light. 
This is something we truly need to be concerned about

The snowball is on a downhill course and picking up speed, probably irreversible at this point.

Exactly!, As far as I am concerned,
most of the celebrity opinions I have heard have been a display of ignorance more than anything to me. Doesn't impress me a bit, never have any depth to them. And Olbermann really found a winner with this one!!
I would be more concerned if it were
a conservative judge retiring.  He'll just add in a liberal to replace a liberal.  No need to get worked up just yet.
Is anyone else here concerned about

the control the unions are getting.  I know unions contribute to democrats, but the very idea of the Obama administration allowing the unions to have so much during Chrysler's bankruptcy....which isn't the way it should be at all.  Obama has literally blown off everyone to make the unions have more control and make money.  Now in CA we have the White House telling CA that they cannot cut union wages or they will lose their stimulus money.  I just don't see how this doesn't concern people on here.  Our government is out of control.  I don't know that I agree with Obama wanting unemployment to go up.  However, I have to wonder if Obama really cares about what he is doing here.  Cap and trade will cut more jobs.  Going green will create jobs initially but they won't sustain them.  All of these construction jobs and infrastructure jobs he will create aren't sustainable.  What happens when the job is done?  People are out of work again.


Our government is out of control, unions are gaining more and more control.......I just don't like the way this is heading.


As far as you are concerned is the sm
magic word but you are so very wrong. You will one day wake up in he!! and you will remember the words you had spoken and you will remember them throughout eternity.

The things I could have done??? I can do anything I please and the things that are not pleasing to God are not things I would enjoy doing.

I have not wasted my life and even IF you were right, which you are not, I would rather live a Christian life than not any day of the week.

I am not miserable I am very happy. I know what awaits me someday but for you.........well I fear for you and I also pity you because you really do not know what you are saying. I hope you figure it out before it's too late.

Obviously, I am done with this conversation. It has turned into an argument by one of Satan's own.

I am more concerned about how

other countries are laughing at us, how our government is spending us into the ground without batting an eyelash about it, how we are more concerned about the treatment of terrorists than we are the potential danger we could put our troops in by showing these memos, etc., how terrorist think we are weak and they continue to hate us no matter whether we torture them or not. 


Call me names all you like, but I do believe that Bush and Cheney did what they did to try to obtain information to save American lives.  This isn't like T-ball where everyone gets a trophy in the end and there are no winners or losers.  This is war.....get a clue! 


It's the same thing, as far as I am concerned.

"voters were concerned about the

language in some of them (books) and felt it inappropriate for their children.  This was to help keep bad language away from their children.  Not to get rid of them because a certain race, nationality, etc. wrote them.  The Nazis burned books written by Jews.  This is entirely different."  Your words.  This is not different at all, and the statement is absurd.  Once you take even one book off the shelf, you have invited pure anarchy/tyrrany.  This would elimintate my and my children's freedom of speech and expression.  Secondly, you want to take away my responsibility as a parent for my children.  Thirdly, this kind of gov't would take away all freedom of thought, how we get our information of the world, different viewpoints, different cultures, different ideas, etc., etc., an extremely dangerous slope. For the love of freedom, please don't dictate to me or my kids what we can read, write, think, etc. 


this chick is more concerned

that some son of a generally unknown guy expressed the opinion that the Dem convention was run well than the RIGHT AMENDMENT!!  What screwed up priorities you have, sista.


 


The only boogeyman I am concerned about....
is Barack the socialist Obama. Even in the face of this crisis he is STILL standing by programs that will cost billions and wanting to RAISE taxes. With the economy in this kind of shape. Good grief. I would not expect he himself to know better but for the love of heck WHO is advising him??? I don't want him (or them, whoever they are) anywhere NEAR the White House.

With all due respect.
You seem to be overly concerned about someone
you don't think much of, even having to resort to nit picking just to have something to yap about.
I believe YOU were concerned about racism...

I'm not so concerned about her as I am Obama's
He's the one running for presidency, not her.
Why are you so concerned about this person?

If you are really concerned about fairness -
I don't understand you folks. I am very concerned about the military having their say in the voting process - I have a son in the military and I want his vote counted (even though he voted for McCain), I have an exhusband in Iraq (who I am sure would not waste his time voting for anybody), but I want their votes counted; however, if you want to be fair then even the homeless people "who do not contribute anything" have the right to vote. Being homeless does not take away their basic rights in this country. You are all talking about how Obama is going to take away this, or take away that, or do this, or do that to the people, but now you are advocating not letting a homeless person vote becaues they don't have a permanent address.

You know what, I have come close to being homeless several times in my life due to unfortunate situations - one of those time when my husband was a SOLDIER and the Army did not pay us for a whole month - and I don't think that homeless people are the scum of the earth and should just be discounted. Any one of us could find ourselves right there on that park bench beside them at any time. If the United States were a better place, then we would not have homeless people sitting on those benches anyway!

I cannot believe the lack of compassion that people in the United States are now showing toward their fellow countrymen!
Not concerned about lady-like
concerned about being able to eat through the winter :)
I'm no concerned about the GOP..I'm an independent...

the sorry's will be from O when he can't fulfill his many promises to his starry eyed followers who elected him. Pelosi herself has already said that many of the things they want to do won't get done and he hasn't even been sworn in yet.

Shouldn't you be concerned about where
all those millions given to Louisiana to rebuild went to? They went to state park projects in the northern part of the state and then LA governor lost track of where the other millions went to.........

If you're so worried about the residents of NO and want to blame the government for all their woes, maybe you should ask why Mayor Negan had the casinos going full blast the day before the hurricane was due to hit? Why wasn't he getting all his federall funded citizens out of NO? Louisiana has always been a state of corruption much like Illinois and until their citizens demand better, they won't get it! On second thought, with so many criminals ran out of New Orleans, maybe it would be a better place to live!!!! They're probably all back by now though, robbing, stealing, and murdering those those who actually do work for a living....
Yep, our government is really concerned for us.........

The government wants to shut down a doctor's business because he is charging a flat-fee service.  He has more than 7000 patients!!!  50 of them are enrolled in a flat-fee service with him where he charges $79.00 a month and they can come see him as much as they want.  He has gotten rid of all the paperwork, all EMR, and has cut ALL the waste.............AND THE GOVERNMENT SAYS NO?!  Crap on that!


He has to wait for the government to contact him which they have not done so far!  Yep, for all those Obama lovers out there, thank you for nothing!  You want cheap healthcare?  This guy is doing it for his patients and the government says NO.....NO CHEAP HEALTHCARE!  They want to OWN everyone and dictate everything!  That is dictatorship ya know!  And please don't give me any Bush crap.................he ain't your presidente' anymore folks!   WAKE UP! 


 


Concerned for Americans?
Pleeeze! No one can claim to be concerned for the American people and continue to put OUR country trillions upon trillions of dollars in debt while our generations to come continue to pay this criminal behavior on the American people!!!

If you haven't figured out who his PRIMAL concern is for thus far, then it would be pointless to point it out!!


No one knows what went on with this couple...
before he left. I am sure that was not the only couple who a man returning from the service divorced upon return, or women who divorced men who were over there serving. His ex-wife maintains that they are still close and apparently she does not hold the sour grapes personally that the public seems to hold, who were not involved and do not know the intimate details. It doesn't seem really fair to post things like this when the whole story is not known.

This is what McCain's ex-wife said about him:
"I'm crazy about John McCain and I love him to pieces," Carol McCain told the New York Times, "but I'm just not going to do interviews."

She does not sound bitter to me.
McCain is concerned about the people . . .
right after Palin gets her photo ops with world leaders and his poll numbers start going down including FoxNews poll and his campaign manager's firm gets caught taking money for "consulting" that was never done and . . .
If you are concerned about the "global" economy...
you have not been paying much attention to Barack "I am a citizen of the world" Obama. You have bought the socialism mantra hook, line, and sinker. It is all "big business' fault." Actually, it is Democrats taxing business into oblivion that helped force them offshore. But I realize your mind is closed to that...does not make it less true. It is not offshoring that makes cars more expensive...it is out of control labor unions, who, go figure, want Obama elected. When labor unions get their sweetheart contracts, the company has to raise prices on cars to make a living...and who gets shafted? Yeah, us.

You think it is fair to tax businesses who employ folks more and turn that into a check for people who will not get out and work for a living like the rest of us. I guess you think they owe you something. I don't think they owe me anything. If you were one of those people who owed a small business, you would be barking up a very different tree.

I would hate to think I was voting for someone who was for punishing hard work and rewarding the opposite. Handouts do NOT incentivize people to get out of the lower income classes. It incentivizes them to STAY there and let the government take care of them. Pretty soon you have only the well off at one end and the low income at the other end...and the middle class disappears forever. Hello socialism 101. They now have ya just where they want ya. Yeah change....
