Least their in the BVI. Love that Bitter End Yacht club!

Thats right. If Mondale was elected he would have freed the captives in IRAN and met Gorbo in Iceland.

And if the Wright Brothers did not build and fly a plane in Kitty Hawk in 1903, the Aircraft Mechanics Union would have!

But wait, according to Lawyer 1, the Wright Brothers did not build that!

And yet Reagan still far more than Clinton and Obama could ever do...

third-party aid for the Nicaraguan contras.

have you heard the news... Nicaragua is turning into a Dictatorship !
Sandinista Danial Ortega are looking to become Dictator for life scrapping peace and democracy.

Guess Reagan got his number right long long ago...

Call it Crazy says

The most overvalued housing market in America (Bay Area)

its actually cheaper to live in SoCal.. how about that !

I always thought Reagan did a good job but according to Stockman and Rothbard he did not. Not regarding spending, deficit reduction, regulation, or even tax reduction because of bracket creep and a higher rate for SS. Worst of all Rothbard said Reagan was really a Keynesian which is what Krugman claims.

http://mises.org/daily/1544

So why did the economy do as well as it did? Don't know but I would guess demographics and dropping the gold standard which allowed for inflation in reality borrowing money from holders of the reserve currency of the world.

Reagan did consider putting us back on the gold standard and dismissed the idea.

bottom line: if you write most of the code yourself, the line number will be minimized.
if you rely on third party software packages to augment your base code your line count will rise exponentially.

This one single line sums up your ignorance on the subject.
However, I would not be too worried as 99.9999% of the population are with you.

These 20% of people on food stamps are also buying up the $1 million+ homes

in the bay area. I see them at the open houses bidding up the price, sweetening

their bid by throwing in a few thousand dollars in food stamps. Bastards, only

if I didn't make so much money I could qualify for all this free stuff.

I'd advise you to quit your job. Then you can qualify for all the free stuff you want. Win-win.

Did it already!

I was contemplating moving to Portland Or. Sounds like my kind of place. Are there areas/neighborhoods you would recommend moving a family with pre-teens and teens. Schools are important but I have heard Oregon has excellent schools.

I've visited Portland twice. All I can say is that personally I didn't really care for it. Some people falsely claim its like the Bay Area. I found it to be nothing like it. The weather for one is awful. Cold, wet, rainy weather for months on end. I think some people forget how much weather plays a part in one's mood and if I were to live there I'd go nuts for the weather alone.

The weather sucks in Portland and Seattle. That is why living there would be hard for me.

That's 20% that will vote according to how their bread is buttered.

Good job Obama.

Oh well, the GOP always has Gerrymandering.

Hate to burst your bubble Cap'n, but you're wrong.

http://www.nationalmemo.com/the-gop-is-the-food-stamp-party/

"Despite Gingrich’s racial connotations, the majority of Americans who use food stamps are white, and they increasingly live in Republican areas"

You're missing the whole point of buying votes.

You certainly don't have to pay your church choir to sing.
So it would only make sense that Obama would focus most in Red states, to get them on the Foodstamp wagon.

Understand just because the GOP in Washington scoffs at food stamps I think most Americans that need food stamps don't consider their parties Washington's politics before they would take them.
More over, as person's preference, of rather having a job than hand outs, is still valid, even if they are "FORCED" to take foodstamps because they have a family to feed. But that doesn't mean, that they don't wish that Washington was doing more to create jobs, rather than focusing on creating default Liberal voters. Who vote (as you Liberals always like to say) according to their interests. So if you have a conservative farmer in Iowa who's been on foodstamps for the last 5 years, is going to have a hard time choosing the next president, based on his Food insecurity.

Nice Job, good Job you go, I sure hope your proud of your self. And I like the extra added "Classy" zinger you crisp them with, chastising them for Ryand Paul's comments. Political Creeps!

Presidents make decisions that are bad.

Clinton: CRA and easy no down loans: Ponzi housing bubble - worst Recession since 1930s

Clinton: When it was found that the WTC parking lot in 1993 and then two embassies had been blown up by Bin Laden, he sent out a Special Ops team to find him then would not capture or incapacitate him. Then 911 happened, and the wars.

Clinton: NAFTA was debated by many, and the only Person with a Manufacturing business running Perot said it would create a Giant suckiing sound and people of the US would be working for near minimum wage jobs.

Some the other issues here are true, the actions of 1 President sent this country into a triplicate tailspin that we have yet to recovery from.

After working right out of college for the Federal Goverment, I could not believe the waste- Reagan was 1000% right on limited goverment. Clinton proved what "unlimited" government would get us.

jazz music says

He thought we could actually recall submarine-launched nuclear missiles (talk about a Reagan myth)

I think that is a misunderstanding of what Regan actually said. Regan was saying land based ICBMs once launched could not be recalled whereas bombers, submarines and ships CAN be recalled. Once launched the missiles cannot be recalled (although perhaps deactivated in flight) but prior to that yes the vehicles carrying the weapons can be ordered to stand down.

I rarely agree with Edvard2 (okay, I've NEVER agreed) BUT as someone who lived there (Portland) for over 50 years, all I can say is 'Hope you like the rain'. I said in a different post but it's worth repeating - Portlanders have a saying, 'We have two seasons, the rainy season and August.' And there is a LOT of truth in that saying. Can you live for 90 days without seeing a hint of blue sky? Can you really? Have you ever done it? Well move to Portland and you can answer that question. How does 90 straight days of high temp never climbing above 60 and lows varying from 25 to 47 set with you? Cause that is what you'll get. Not to mention days upon days upon days of rain. No not the hard, swell rivers, cause flooding kind of rain (they get that rarely). More like the depressing, damp, light rain (more than a drizzle) that goes on and on and on. Yeah, THAT would be Portland.

Free trade is not a bad idea but why did the agreement require 900 pages.

Actually it was about mercantilism. Interesting subject

Portland is a great city. Great music scene. Really creative businesses and entrepreneurs. Maybe because it takes unique people to live there.
I lived there for almost four years and was in the NW almost ten. I told myself the whole time that the weather didn't bother me. Then I moved to San Francisco. Boy was I kidding myself. I had an overwhelming sense of euphoria for almost a year.

DJIA drops of 200-300 a day will be the new norm. Good for gold in the long run. Hope everyone is accumulating or kiss your savings goodbye.

Its always entertaining to see some people seemingly forget that Reagan in the end was a fairly ineffective President. Interesting now that conservatives place him on a pedestal and proclaim good deeds he never even did.

Well said, jazz music

Of course you don't get rain in CA.
So much so that soon you won't be able to wash your car or water the lawn.

Thank you hrhjuliet for the information. But the guys have reminded me of the weather and now I am doubtful. I can only handle about a month of rain before it effects my mood. Maybe global warming will turn Portland into the Bay Area.

I also noticed the prices of homes in the desired neighborhoods ( good schools) were relatively expensive. While homes in Milwaukie were very affordable. I like Milwaukie prices with Brooklyn schools.

jazz man, do you have the same The Onion Presents a Dumb, Thoughtless Gift: 2014 Daily Calendar as I do? The headline for Tuesday Jan 21 is Embarrassed Republicans Admit They've Been Thinking Of Eisenhower Whole Time They've Been Praising Reagan
..."When I heard about Eisenhower's presidential accomplishments—holding down the national debt, keeping inflation in check, and fighting for balanced budgets—it hit me that we'd clearly gotten their names mixed up at some point," Priebus told reporters. "I couldn't believe we'd been associating terms like 'visionary,' 'principled,' and 'bold' with President Reagan. That wasn't him at all—that was Ike."

Don't be a nitwit.

You need to leverage yourself into a couple of East Bay shitshacks so you can rent them out, 3 families in each. Then you can move to South America in no time.

I've mulled over much of the information covering the attacks on WTC, and while I think some of the truther propaganda is reaching, it's quire obvious there was some sort of coverup operation. What was being covered up and who did it for what reason will never be known.

That video implies that no evidence of bodies was found at the crash site of flight 93 and also questions the nature of the impact site. That right there negates any of the content of yet another of your fact free choices of conspiracy video.

It is known. As the Italian president said, it was the CIA and Israel security forces. The neocons had help from the Israelis. Why? In order to establish the Yinon plan of Oded Yinon, or the Clean Break plan of the neocons for regime change and destruction of the Arab nations.

'It is known,' followed by more of your zionist conspiracy nonsense. You sure supply the laughs on this forum.

Unfortunately, you're treading a pretty lonely path on here now Gary. Others obviously don't see the comedy value of your posts. Oh well, such is life.

Why is what?

There were no bodies found at flight 93. How is that negating content?

Plenty of body parts though...

Ah yes, because there isn't a Youtube video made by a 16 year-old, it can't be true. Why not contact the coroner who identified all of the people aboard the plane? Oh let me guess, he and his team are part of the conspiracy as well.

And what exactly do you think happens to human beings that hit the ground at well over 500mph and are then consumed by a massive fireball? Presumably you think they should be almost intact, along, presumably, with the rest of the plane, because er..., because umm...

bgamall4 says

Bigsby says

Of course. And Bigsby, people saw flight 93 land elsewhere.

Surprise, surprise. You also didn't answer my question about what happens in such a crash. And people see planes land all the time. They have no idea whatsoever which flight it was. They are making a claim post event and inserting the 'facts' that are convenient to their argument.
But there are a number of local eye witnesses who saw flight 93 going down and a couple of them photographed the subsequent smoke cloud caused by the crash. Presumably, they are also in on the conspiracy as well. Seeing how it's difficult for two people to keep a secret, it's remarkable how many thousands upon thousands are keeping quiet about all the conspiracies you believe to have taken place.

Your response is that I've got 'nuthin' and then all you do is copy and paste a paragraph on whether the crash happened at 10.03 or 10.06. Er, you don't even think the crash happened FFS.

Have you not taken your pills today Gary?

jazz music says

LOOK AT THE DEBTS INCREASING AND ACCELERATING THE INCREASE JUST BEFORE THESE CONSERVATIVES (?) LEAVE OFFICE EVERY TIME!!!!!!!

Yes clearly that is the only thing influencing those graphs. LBJ for instance couldn't possibly have influenced debt down the road a couple of decades. Clinton was held in check by a conservative congress and Reagan had a progressive one and of course the perfect storm with Obama. If I had to put anyone on a pedestal though it would have been Nixon taking us off the gold standard but then again his hand was forced by LBJ and Vietnam wars spending.

Your graph doesn't show a correlation or causation.

It seems to have turned the Bay Area into SoCal. When I lived in SoCal, maybe two weeks of rain, then nada. Now it seems SoCal gets more tropical stuff than it used to.

Don't troll Bigsby. Bring something to the table if you don't want to be deleted.

You delete anything that points out the idiocy of your posts, which is why all your conspiracy threads are almost entirely made up of your own posts.

And there was nothing trolling about the post you deleted. You simply don't want to acknowledge actual eye witnesses to the crash. Instead you make out that another one of your ridiculous Youtube videos, put together by a know nothing kid, is somehow conclusive proof that flight 93 never crashed. It isn't. It begins with clear and obvious lies and yet you lap it up. The crash site has impacted plane parts. There is nothing strange about the impact site given the speed and angle of impact. And yes, there weren't any 'bodies'. What there was were small fragments of body parts scattered around which enabled investigators to identify all of the people on board. Only on your planet does that translate as no bodies were found.

You are the one trolling this site, peddling obvious lies that you attempt to pass off as the truth to the more gullible on here. You don't want to examine evidence, which is why your 'evidence' is never anything more than laughable Youtube videos.

And why don't you want to take me up on my Sandy Hook offer? Don't you want to speak to the actual people you claim to be actors and liars? You make baseless assertions but are too much of a coward to actually face the people you accuse.

Actually there were eyewitnesses that didn't see anything but a little trash.

If I saw Robbie Parker I would call him out for being as phony as a three dollar bill. I doubt if he is still in Sandy Hook. He just moved there for an acting gig.

If? Why not go there and demonstrate to all of us what you'd do? You've obviously got an inordinate amount of free time on your hands. I predict that you'd scuttle away with your tail between your legs given the merest whiff of anyone who was actually caught up in that horrific event.

And there were eye witnesses that saw the plane come down. Let me guess, they are all actors/paid government conspirators/blah-blah-blah.
