Thats an odd response to a well founded point made.  Flip everything around to your opinion of an individual and ignore the substance of the converstation.

maybe you want the substance to become a reality,, you want to see america fall,, you crave it happening because somewhere along the way america let you down and now its time to pay everyone back.

The OP asked for opinions without specifying any restrictions, so I gave one. 

Here's another:  the lighter fluid masquerading as technical-info-spouting-bimbette doesn't know squat about pushing electrons, computers, the interwebs, or gov't policy.

Well, ok.  My wife, who is the County Republican chair, and I, watch the Glenn Beck show every day.  The only thing I'll say about the cash for clunkers  is this:  people who don't have the money are willing to trade in their payed for vehicle to get a new car that will create a big monthly payment, further pushing them behind the recovery.  $4500 off the purchase price of a $20,000 vehicle is $15,500 they could have spent on paying off credit cards, gas, and repair bills (keep the mechanics working) and instead they are allowing the car manufacturers to sell a few more cars (are they American cars?) just so the manufacturers can pay back the loan to the Govt.  How many cars does the manufacturers have to sell before the lots across the country are bare enough to warrant more car production?  I fail to see how the CARS program will work to pull this country out of a recession.  Also, I fail to see how this country will recover when the gas prices continue to rise.  Supply and demand.  But my wife is much better at this than I am, so I leave the debates up to her, and I chime in with a joke to break the ice after she creates such a stunned silence in the air on her liberal adversaries.


In a central banking system, more debt means more money. More money means more debt. Money is created from debt, so it benefits the big dogs if the little people of the country are still in debt.

Take a look at this video, it explains the banking system better. Skip to 4 mins.

I'll watch the video later when my dsl is fast enough, seems to have issues tonight.  But right now I'll say that I have 3 vehicles that qualify, and the wife and I drive two of them as DD's.  The third is my yard truck.  My current unemployment prevents me from having a car payment, not that I want one anyway.  I understand that, but what about those that don't?  My Tbird sits without me being able to work on it, and that frustrates me.  I have no debt whatsoever besides my mortgage, and that is how I roll.  There is no charging a credit card to get the CHE's that I need. :)  And the Tbird will sit because of it....frustrating me, lol.

Also, as long as I work for someone else, I will be one of the little people.

Glenn Beck seems extreme at times, but for the most part this country has divided itself between red and blue, which is what was promised not to happen.  I try to stay the middle of the road the best I can.  It was said that I don't take it seriously, I tried to prove otherwise, that's all.

Just in case anybody thinks we all agree, I have to state that Beck is a babbling psychopath who should be in an asylum.

So can one of my "guys" Jay Severin BUT, more extreme than who? Current "big guy", I don't think so.
I have always though of myself as middle of the road. Until this last election i never voted, never really paid much attention. Wish i did and more often...


Bottom line though, What freaking BUSINESS what so ever has any business having such language in their user agreement? And if people cought wind, who in their right mind (other than the drones with their head down in denial) would aver accept...?

Holy shiznit man, it way so totally goes the other way with the current office and general media...good god...who do you think won the election?


Seriously, i DO NOT want another thread locked here...I was very stunned (not really surprised at all actually but dissapointed) when i heard this. I genuinely wanted well rounded opinions on this from a diverse croud. NOT from a "political" site where everyone has an agenda or is hard core left/right....To be either merits a "mental health check". I wanted opinions from average guys that are a little more like me and less like the yuppies........

Politics aside, the verbage used in that agreement was to cover their own ass.  Gone are the handshakes that meant something.

You're too kind.  I had something else in mind, involving large hungry carnivores.  He'd still have a camera on him, though.

I'd lol, but it's his not so hidden bigotry and incitement of his wanna be "followers" to violence that makes him a dangerous little coward.

How so? I see it as insulting as well as an assault of sorts...

Your opinion on this man doesn't change the general message here......Both sides have extremes sure, and yours is in office, but consider your rights are crumbling away......

You, What you and the gentleman you voted for stand for are insulting and offensive to me....

Bigotry is not funny nor is the racial bias sitting in the big seat as we speak....

Hmmm, so who's playing "gotcha" and making this politcal now, Shame?

YOU posted a clip of an offensive broadcaster - now you're suggesting you know who we voted for and making this an "us" versus "them" thread?

Hmmm... hypocrite much?

IBTL!

If I may be serious for a moment.  Really, do think questioning someone's patriotism is the right thing to do?

Now, once you get to know me, that's another matter....

Just because you were offended or find him offensive does not make him offensive pal. Grow some skin. I rarely view him myself. Either or, It does not take from my original post....Lets keep political correctness out of this as its a huge downfall to OUR country overall....

Do YOU Cougar5.0 agree with the language in the posted "agreement?" I was sincerely wondering how in general people here felt....


I know who I voted for (or didn't) and i KNOW who you voted for because you yourself have told me in the past. What you fail to relate to me (despite me seeking an education from yourself) is WHY you voted for WHO you voted for ;0) and perhaps why I should have....

For the record, I was bashing Fox news because I am not a fan of one sided media. I am neither right or left because I think both sides are working towards the same goal, and that's not a good thing.

I will leave it at that.
