I heard of it in August when it was filed and then nothing until this week.

I have heard of all the problems he has with his birth certificate and half his family in Kenya saying he was born there and some others saying it was at both hospitals in HI. I've heard about his web site putting up and within 2-3 days pulling what was considered a fake copy of a birth certificate from HI.

And then his visit last week to HI to visit his white grandmother when it was reported a few days later that the (democrat) Governor sealed his record or file.

If he wins this election this is a serious constitutional problem. And if he were made to step down, I can imagine the 'civil unrest' that probably will cause.

Can you believe that the FBI does not do any checks on candidates because the political parties are charged with the responsibility of making sure the candidate is leagally able to run for the office (the DNC is a Defendant also in this court case). And then if the person is elected to Congress or the Presidency, they, the FBI, simply gives them a Secret Security Clearance? Unbelievable!

Oil companies only work on less than 5% profit margin. Most business would fail trying to work on that small a margin. The upfront exploration and drilling costs in that business are huge, and so are the risks.

Now for the best part: If there is some "windfall" profits due to the ahabs jacking up the price of crude, where does that money go....( the part that does not go to the ahabs)? It goes out as dividends to people who are smart enough to own Exon stock. Like ME!!! So keep ponying $4 for gas....I love it!!!!!!!!!!



More like clearing 16 to 17% before income taxes (XOM for last three years).

I would like to know which members of the hedge fund / retirement fund / wall street crowd has been manipulating oil futures for the past year.

Gentlemen, adjust your tin hats?


Gary - the plaintiff in that case, is the same cat who sued the government for being complicit in 9/11. He's a wingnut. And the reason it's back in the news, is that the court threw it out.

As far as his case, factcheck & other have thoroughly de-bunked it. Do a LITTLE research before you repeat stuff? It only takes 1/2 minute to see if Snopes has something on it...

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/native-son/


Mark - attaching a legit name & email adress to a bogus message, doesn't make the message any less bogus. Have you looked at the candidates' actual tax plans?

It only takes 1/2 a minute to check snopes, when you get one of these...

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/proposed-tax-changes/


C'mon - with all the real, legit differences between the candidates and their policies - why are you participating in this gutter BS?

This is how republics die - when citizens put their party ahead of the country, ahead of honest discourse, ahead of their responsibility as citizens.

I'm completely disappointed in you guys.

Frenchie,


Those "links" you just posted don't hold water as credible because of the following:


Goooogle ads all over that site loaded with Obama links

Pop-up ads are from Sundance Channel.....you know what affiliation that comprises

The references to data on the tax plans is from CNN, CNBC? And what side of the fence do those affiliations tie to?

The birth certificate link you provided is referenced to published books, not any credible reference to "actual" data. Those are opinions written by 3rd parties, not a .gov document listing showing the statistics of what qualifies and what doesn't.

Why won't he show the true document? Or release his college records? Where there is smoke, there is fire.


Snopes as you might think is a good way to debunk statements from time to time but it's clearly evident that between their advertising and pop-ups, who they refer to for statistical data is in question.


Just the same as if someone proved a point and linked out fox news or a gop.com website.

You'd be the first to toot your horn stating it can't be credible.


So...

Please, provide us with links to proof about these statements that come from a source that doesn't participate in catering to one party or another.



Those tax statements are from the sources back in June of this year....and we all know they've been tweaked on both sides since then.


In my opinion about the birth certificate and tax proposals....none of it really matters to me. There's tons of reasons for or against an opponent...


my beef is with the company he has kept all the years leading up to this point. That's my concern.



I'm going to wait for you to bring up some credible sources, or anyone for that matter. No spin either.

It seems you're doing the above to prove a point. Please don't disappoint us.

I won't bother to say who I'm voting for, only I will know on Tuesday.
Well, maybe my kids will know.

But it is that time of year, where you can't look at a website without ads popping up with campaign messages, the television and radio are playing more ads, and most of what you see and hear is just white noise.

In a few more days it will all end.
At least for the past month I haven't seen any competing plumbing ads on televison.
So if you are in the Seattle area, this is my ad.
See, even I'm doing it.

So we have dragged both candidates, a few corporations and finally God himself into the discussion and all without a solution. Not that I expected one. After all some very very smart folks have been slugging away at this for a lot longer than any of us have. Still, if it all makes you take a few moments and take more than a fleeting glance at your candidate of choice, perhaps you just may change your mind. When you hear words like corporate greed and Unfair tax rates for the rich it's easy to jump on that band wagon. This is America. Everyone despises a winner:D However it's not enough to take these statements at face value. to get a clear picture you need to look into both sides of the equation with as much open mindedness as you can muster. I will say it one more time. A business tax is another tax on the consumer. Prove me wrong.

By the way. I totally agree about churches. The founding fathers wanted a separation of church and state, not a free ride. They own property, they should pay property taxes. They have income, they should not be tax exempt. Nor should any organization that is paying salaries to those working for it.

I have a very good friend that lives in Melborne. those poor folks are about at wits end with the endless taxation and corruption that runs rampant in Austrailian government. We are by no means alone in this. In fact many nations suffer far worse than we do.

You're doing that thing again, bro - where you argue with the leftie in yer head, instead of me.

I've been known to link directly to Fox.



And... you're missing my point, completely.

LOL!


Sucks when you're asked to back up a statement and can't.


BTW, There's no McCain ads on that site, NONE. Nothing that represents an equal division.


Entertain us when you can muster more credible statistical data instead of quick witted one-liners.



You didn't expect me to check the sources.......did you...

We studied economics together and toured the land of oz once or twice together. I know you will disagree with this, but, they are at no more wits' end than we are here. This is a discussion in itself which is too extensive. My point in posting the video was to show that corporate greed is worldwide. Nothing more.

Speaking of other countries... And being worse off.

My wife was born in South Africa in 1952 and the family moved to Rhodesia when she was 2. For the geographically challenged, that's Zimbabwe now, it's on the east coast of Africa. Africa is a continent between the southern Atlantic and Indian oceans, south of Europe. Those oceans, they are the big blue areas on a world map...

Her Dad died and the family, she and her family moved back to SA in 1975 during the 'civil war' in Rhodesia. She and her son came here (legally) in 1999.

She is in contact with many people from both countries that due to 'politics' and the aftermath of drastic changes made in both countries have scattered around the world. Many are in Australia, New Zealand, England, Canada and here.

The majority of them see a sinister similarity to our current political situation and what happened in SA and Zimbabwe over the last 10-20 years.

My wife has two daughters and their husbands and kids, her mother, a sister and her husband and 3 daughters and a brother and his wife still in SA.

I also see a similarity and hear the same type rhetoric from Obama as was and is still used in SA and Zimbabwe, especially when CHANGE is the only thing I believe he is being honest about.

Change is a powerfull word. Bill Clinton rode it to victory and 8 years later the power of the word is still strong. A candidate can use it with impudence. Some change is good. Some change is necessary. Not all change is for the better.

Welfare state

Mark...if these stats are real it wouldn't supprise me...human nature what it is...most people won't work if there is a way not to...had a guy living accross from me back in the early 80s and his wife was on welfare and he was in the army at the same time...I guess the gvmt. had no checks in place at that time to catch him...all paper no computers.

We have seen this in our every day lives for decades.
we work all over our cities and see reality for what it is.

people trying to cheat the system and get everything they can
from the goventment.... ...


all the generations of people on welfare and others out there simply
expect something for nothing and feel that they are entitled to it........

Now they have a candidate for president to vote for that will give them anything
that they ask for.....anything......


guess what is going to happen???..


they will all be disapointed when that politician has to
break those promises that got him into office in the first place.....

and of course someone will have to be blamed .for not supporting the "dream".



Probably the middle class that refuse to support the dream.....


or "the great society" like LBJ tried to do....

----------------------------------------------------------------------


now back to shoveling horse shit...

I got two water heaters,

and a couple of other calls to do today..




you know.....I think I would make a great dictator...



"ask not what your country can do for you ,
but ask how you can get off your lazy ass and do for yourself"

About 12-18 months ago, IIRC, Paul Harvey announced that for the first time in our history, the dependent urban pukes outnumbered the usually self sufficient redneck rural population; 51-49%.

Checking presidential poles this morning, they are running the same 51-49%.

Cass, many lower ranked military service people have historically been living on welfare and food stamps to survive. IIRC Bush increased pay scales to right that wrong but I don't know if they are all that much better off today.

That's while any national politician that wins a single 2, 4 or 6 year congressional or presidency term gets a pension and other benefits for life.
