ok, what does 148,000 jobs = then?

That comes in the teeth of printing $574000 for each of these created jobs.

How long will this last?

I think it's quite comical that smgauld has to keep replying to his own thread to try to bump it. Perhaps that's a cue that he needs to find a day job?

egads101 is obviously a zionist spy sent by the mossad to misdirect and confuse the conspiracy geniuses.

Bgmall, why do you keep harping on the Yinon Plan? I had never heard of it...you know why? It is 30+ years old. It's obscure. I can assure you that if Israel wanted to take over huge swaths of the Mideast on behalf of Zionism, they would have attempted to do so over the past 30 years. They don't have the number of soldiers to occupy that much land, and neither does the US, as is evidenced by Iraq.

Israel's main goal and only goal is survival. Yes, Mossad is bad ass--so is every major intelligence agency in the developed world. Their reach and their capabilities are overhyped in the media.

And about the media...your assertion about the "Jewish-controlled media" is a canard that has been used before a number of times.
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2010/10/do_jews_really_control_the_media.html

Along with the Jews controlling banking, etc. I'm sure every Jewish person knows that the big media-controlling meeting is on Tuesday night, banking is on Wed night, and culture controlling is on Thurs. What to do the rest of the other nights? Maybe read the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion"?

If you are going to throw accusations around, at least update your anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. Don't use stuff that is at least 30 years old, or hundreds of years for that matter.

Bigsby says

So you are saying that he appealed a Magistrate's ruling of a 6-month CONDITIONAL discharge over non-payment of a TV licence fee at the High Court? I thought you said he won the case. And please post up the details of that particular appeals case if you don't mind. I'll be waiting.

No, I am saying the BBC obviously didn't appeal the ruling. That is because they had no grounds. The judge was a coward but found a way out because the guy's evidence was truth.

Is that supposed to be a joke? Why would the BBC appeal the case? They won, Rooke lost. He got a 6-month CONDITIONAL discharge for non-payment of a TV licence fee. You still appear to not understand what a conditional discharge is. That is NOT a decision in favour of Rooke, it's a decision in favour of the BBC.

Now, would you like to tell me which parts of your claim that he sued the BBC and won the case in the HIGH COURT were correct? Shall I save you the bother?

Bigsby says

They didn't get their money.

It was a 6-month conditional discharge. Do you understand what happens if he continues to go down his path of non-payment?

And I notice you didn't answer my question:

"would you like to tell me which parts of your claim that he sued the BBC and won the case in the HIGH COURT were correct?"

Please feel free to address any or all points in that question.

He will demand the evidence of BBC lying be entered into evidence. The judge will refuse and he will get another 6 months and on and on.

Except he isn't appealing, is he? And you do not never endingly get handed the same sentence for a conditional discharge. The sentence will become more severe. And I see you singularly failed to answer my question.

38730   Bigsby   2013 Oct 22, 8:15pm  

bgamall4 says

Bigsby says

Why should he if he doesn't have to pay?

Oh, I thought you said before that he won the case. Now, it seems that you are arguing he lost the case but (only in a blathering truther's mind) actually won it because there wasn't a substantial fine. Ha, ha, ha. And he does have to pay for his TV licence fee now though, doesn't he (along with the court costs of the case that he LOST)? If he doesn't, guess what happens.

And I notice you've still failed to answer my earlier question. I'll repeat it again seeing as you appear to have forgotten:

Would you like to tell me which parts of your claim that he sued the BBC and won the case in the HIGH COURT were correct?

Remember, if only one of these is irrefutable, 9/11 was a conspiracy.

Pull comment by owner of WTC7

Firefighters saw tower explosions on lower floor

Dan Rather said it was exploded

Prereporting WTC7 collapse

Squibs sighted

Rate of fall of WTC7 was unhindered. No pancake

Howard Dean Questioning W's involvement and W cries showing guilt

John Kerry said it was a controlled demolition.

So let me get this straight... if, for example, Dan Rather said that the towers were brought down by explosives, you consider that as irrefutable proof of a conspiracy.

Ha, ha, ha.

He was an eyewitness and heard the explosions and detonations.

Lots of people said many different things on that particular day, much of it speculation and inaccurate speculation at that - as with his comments. I know because I, like very many others, saw it unfold live on TV and heard the varying reports. And Dan Rather was reporting live from a studio, wasn't he? If that counts as being an eye witness, then I too was an eye witness all the way over in England. What, by the way, has Dan Rather said since then? And more to the point, why do you think that off-the-cuff speculation by a journalist to fill air time is proof of anything?
You'd be better served questioning Rather's journalistic performance in his slavering support of Bush post 9/11 rather than raising up a bit of on screen prattling as some kind of proof of an extraordinary claim.

38733   Bigsby   2013 Oct 23, 2:16am  

You still haven't answered my question about the Rooke case. Clearly you are incapable of admitting you are completely wrong even when the facts so clearly show you to be. But, hey, I'm sure you'll continue to try and bullshit your way out of the corner you've painted yourself into.

38735   CDon   2013 Oct 23, 3:03am  

Pretty quick on the delete button there eh Bgamall? Before I will ask the same question of bigsby on a separate thread (where you don't have deletion powers) do you want to allow it here such that you at least have some control over the information?

Either way, let me know.

Personally, I don't know if the Dancing Israelis were part of the attacks or if they were going to blow up bridges if the attacks didn't go as planned. I don't know. I do know that they said they were there to cover the event. They had to know about the event and they had explosives. Why would you have explosives if you are just covering an event?

What do you find so problematic about this description of the 'dancing Israelis' apart from it, of course, not fitting your already preformed narrative?

And since you also deleted my Rooke post, I'll ask again. You are complaining about rewriting history and yet you claim Rooke sued the BBC and won the case in the High Court. Care to retract that entire statement considering it is completely wrong? And why do you find it impossible to admit you were wrong?

Rewriting history. That is no proof of anything. They originally reported there were explosives. You have to go with the first report.

Why do you "have to go with the first report"? Isnt it possible the first report was not-accurate? For example did Dewey really defeat Truman?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewey_Defeats_Truman

In any event, less than 8 Minutes after they reported people in custody with explosives, they retracted it and said no explosives were found. Isnt it possible that the simply made a mistake when they reported explosives and then corrected it 8 minutes later?

Opps....500,000 in 3 states lose coverage.

More Americans In 3 States Have Had Their Insurance Canceled Under ObamaCare Than Have Filed An Exchange Account In All 50

reality of the ObamaCare roll-out appeared in a set of news stories that serve as an ironic juxtaposition. Over 500,000 individuals have seen their insurance policies cancelled in just 3 states. In all 50 states, only 476,000 applications have been “filed” in an exchange. (Even though we are still learning the true definition of “filed.”)

It certainly goes far enough to give the insurance companies extra money! The medical industrial complex can now become twice as bloated and provide half the service! Isn't socialism great?

Oh, and your evidence that it was a cover up is what exactly?

And your evidence that it wasn't a cover up is what exactly?

If a tie means you think you are winning you are a fool Bigs.

You are the one making the outlandish claim that runs contrary to the evidence about what happened. How would you expect me to go about disproving a claim by you that fairies live in the bottom of your garden? You've got the facts about what happened, as you now have about the Rooke case. You just choose to conjure up an entirely separate tale that doesn't take the real, fact-based evidence under consideration. That isn't a tie as you put it. That is you misrepresenting the known facts in an attempt to bolster your overall narrative.

Call it Quits says

If they do show up because the government threatens them with fines the economy collapses as $3,200 a year exceeds the average 27 year old's disposable personal income after mandatory expenses (e.g. food, shelter, etc.)

If they can't afford it they will get a subsidy. And you know that perfectly well; you just deliberately neglected to mention it. You Obamacare haters don't have a leg to stand on fact-wise, so you have to make up lies.

38752   Homeboy   2013 Oct 24, 4:55pm  

Problem #2: Dingbat Karl Denninger says $266.20/month is the "average" rate a 27 year old will pay. Complete bullshit! That is the average of ALL plans OFFERED in all of the states that are using the federal exchange (basically the red states). That's like averaging a Maserati and a Toyota Corolla and claiming the "average" price a person must pay for a car is $79,000!

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY THE MOST EXPENSIVE INSURANCE PLAN, FOLKS. If you go to his data link and click to sort by price, some of those plans are as cheap as $81/month.

Duh.

Even if that's true, how many 27 year old have a spare $972 to spend each year?

Article clearly states that the pricing is for unsubsidized people. I don't know why you are complaining about that.

I don't like the way the article is written, but if you read further down, they do make a lot of good points about how medical cost structure in the US is way too high, and of course nothing is done about that in Obamacare.

The federal government seems to be doing it's best to make medical treatments more expensive:
http://www.mises.org/daily/6567/The-FDA-A-Pain-From-the-Neck-to-the-Big-Toe

In the summer of 2009, the Food and Drug Administration approved Colcrys as a treatment for gout flare-ups and the Mediterranean fever. The FDA gave pharmaceutical company URL Pharma an exclusive marketing agreement for selling Colcrys in exchange for completing studies on Colcrys and paying the FDA a $45 million application fee.

This deal effectively created a patented drug with no generic alternative. Therefore it gave the company a monopoly for the duration of the agreement. URL Pharma immediately raised the price from less than a dime to nearly $5 dollars per pill. Comprehensive medical insurance does substantially reduce the price to consumers, but it does not reduce the cost. Insurance only spreads the cost-burden across policy holders.

At the same time, doctors are encouraged by pharmaceutical companies to employ more expensive and profitable treatments. As a result the overall cost burden increases. Evidence suggests that doctors are prescribing Colcrys in large volumes to treat gout flare-ups and as a long-term preventative measure.

Once again government has taken something that was both cheap and beneficial and turned it into a monopoly that hurts the general public and drives up the cost of medical care to the benefit of Big Pharma.

I would add that the 81 buck a month policy is a crappy illusion of a simulacrum of insurance coverage.
It may be "affordable' but it ain't "health care".

I've had a plan for four years for a family of four. Two children and two healthy adults in our forties. We received a termination notice because our plan doesn't meet the Obamacare guidelines. With all incentives our premium will more than double. I support the goal of Obamacare, but I was counting on keeping my plan as promised by my president. If I didn't keep my plan I thought I was going to get cheaper insurance. Both didn't happen. As a supporter of the plan I feel betrayed.

38758   edvard2   2013 Oct 25, 1:04am  

It won't screw anyone. But I am sure this sort of nonsense dialog will continue amongst those on the far right, whom got their feelings hurt that the fake grass roots movement they believe in failed to stop Obamacare from getting implemented...

To be un-subsidized a single person would have to have an income of $45k+.

On average why can't someone single with $45k income, spare $972? Any evidence of that?

$972/year is my budget for visiting war memorials.

I have no idea where I will find another $972 for health insurance, and I make far more than $45,000.

These made-up facts and horror stories about Benghazicare are so scary that I believe it will drive all Americans offshore, where talent is taxed less heavily.
