Just for argument's sake - we've got significant inflation, and it has been with us for several years. For example, compare the cost of food and fuel among other things. But the numbers are rigged by the govt by excluding these figures that "skew" the figures. The problem is that the Fed has...

That must be the "unresolved ambivalence" part. Maybe Gates is trying to imply that Obama is a well-intentioned fool.

Amen brother! For those who don't understand that concept and what's been going on for the past several years, this article by Thomas Sowell explains it best (bold emphasis mine): Note the last sentence in the quote: does this sound familiar?

​Speaking of good books, DUTY - the new one by Robert Gates to be released on Jan 14 looks like one that will be well worth the money. From his description of what goes on in the Obama White House, we shouldn't be surprised when the public elects and re-elects an inexperienced, unqualified...

For anyone who wants to read a REALLY good book about the 2008 financial crisis, I highly recommend Reckless Endangerment - available on Amazon and probably most libraries since it's been out for almost three years. It's very well written in an interesting style that keeps even the average...

Just a few factiods about unemployment insurance: The state foots the bill for 26 weeks; after that the Feds take over. That's the issue they're voting on right now in DC - the Federal "emergency" funding. Using OH as an example; (although they payments vary widely among the states) OH pays...

What does the article about King have to do with a conservative magazine supporting legalized pot?:confused: Had King done a doobie before the interview?

First of all, restraints on Iran's nuclear energy capabilities does NOT keep them in the dark. They have huge reserves of oil and natural gas which they could develop faster and more inexpensively to provide all the energy they need for economic development. Their oil reserves are the 4th...

Don't forget the mainstream media - they determine what's cool and uncool to the young 'skulls full of mush", and the current fashion is that Christianity is "uncool". Is there a program on network TV right now that champions the Christian religion? Would Tim Tebow be remotely recognizable if...

In TN they're called Krystal, but it's the same thing. I still get cravings for those things - could those be considered flashbacks? However, only college-aged intestines can handle them more than once or twice a month. Just wish they had those little hot dogs back in the late '60s.:D

Just a little something to put all this into context (bold emphasis mine): Although the source article is somewhat lengthy, it does offer an insight to the considerable changes in control of the area over the course of history. Anyone who's read a newspaper in say, the last 20-30 years might...

Another attempt worth considering: HowStuffWorks "How Intelligent Design Works" Keeping an open mind isn't necessarily a bad trait.

Of course it comes from your taxes and mine, and the sin taxes collected from sales of legal wacky tabaccy. If this doesn't work out, he can always get a doctor to diagnose him as depressed and collect disability on that basis. There again, an example of our tax dollars working for those who don't.

I see what you're saying, but I don't subscribe to the notion that all Muslims willing to take to the streets (eg.the cartoon protesters) are fire-breathing jihadists and supporters of radical Islamic terrorism. Even truck drivers have been organized to drive into DC and clog up Pennsylvania...

I'd like to see him run also, but start with a seat in the House or Senate. This would give him the necessary political experience, contacts and knowledge of the Washington system needed to run an effective campaign. Right now he's just a highly intelligent political rookie who is very appealing...

Not talking about "other religions" - just Muslims. What Christians did several centuries ago is irrelevant when discussing present-day situations. Innocent people died because of the fatwa issued against Salman Rushdie. Hundreds were killed in worldwide demonstrations against the Danish...

With that in mind, she could likely be defeated again by an inexperienced, untested, unqualified newcomer also more liberal than she is, and also claims to be 1/16 Native American. This individual is also has an academic background and offers the necessary minority heritage that seems to be the...

There seems to be quite a few Muslim public relations organizations and other similar groups - CAIR, MPAC, AMANA to name a few. More listed here: The American Muslim (TAM) They could get their denunciations of jihad across loud and clear to the American public and the entire world if they...

The GOP will have to find a likeable conservative candidate who delivers his message well - not a squishy moderate like McCain or Romney who preaches a Democrat-lite philosophy. They will also have to find someone who knows how to run an aggressive, no-holds-barred campaign. Replacing Rance...
