Historical Traveler Reviews Grand Hotel Amrath Amsterdam
Beautiful, Wonderful Amrath
We stayed for 3 nights in early July 2007. It was beautiful, wonderful and awe-inspiring. Everything about this hotel is nearly perfect. The restoration is breathtaking (10 years in the making from what I understand, and still not complete throughout the entire hotel). The service is impeccable. Every time we called with a request, somebody was there at our door literally within seconds. The location is perfect. Waterfront city centre yet quiet, and just a 5-10 minute walk from everything (Central Station, Damrak/ Dam Square, Red Light, etc.)
They seemed to be offering introductory rates, so I imagine these will increase substantially as the hotel's name becomes established. If you are going to Amsterdam soon and want a memorable experience, I recommend you do yourself a favor and stay at the Amrath.
Schönes, wundervolles Amrath
Wir verbrachten hier Anfang Juli 2007 drei N�chte. Es war sch�n, wundervoll und ehrfurchterregend. Dieses Hotel ist in jeder Hinsicht fast perfekt. Die Restauration ist atemberaubend (es wurde 10 Jahre lang gearbeitet, wenn ich es richtig verstanden habe, und das Hotel ist immer noch nicht ganz fertig). Der Service ist tadellos. Immer wenn wir mit einer Bitte anriefen, kam jemand buchst�blich in Sekundenschnelle zu unserer Zimmert�r.
Die Lage ist ideal. Im Stadtzentrum am Wasser, trotzdem ruhig und alles ist nur 5-10 Gehminuten entfernt (der Hauptbahnhof, Damrak/ Dam Platz, das Rotlichtviertel usw.).
Die Preise schienen Einf�hrungspreise zu sein, sodass ich mir vorstellen kann, dass sie erheblich steigen werden, sobald sich das Hotel einen Namen gemacht hat. Falls Sie bald nach Amsterdam reisen und ein unvergessliches Erlebnis haben wollen, dann empfehle ich Ihnen, sich selbst einen Gefallen zu tun und im Amrath zu �bernachten.
What an experience!
This hotel was recently opened (2 weeks ago) and they are still working out the bugs BUT, it is a beautiful space and the service was tremendous!
It is an old shipping building, a warehouse i think. Full of unique touches like stone carving, stained glass, and iron --stunning! The room was extremely well-appointed with coffees and teas, mini-bar was all complimentary (probably not for long); the bathroom is marble and granite with a huge tub, luxurious towels and Prada toiletries. Speaking of working out the bugs -the new trouser press had no plug attached and the coffeemaker didn't quite fit but those are small issues for a traveler like me.
Doorman service was exemplary. The restaurant service was spotty due to a crowd - and we came to understand that the owner was dining there that night. Their specialty is seafood.
The bar was fun with quite a diverse crowd.
Drawback - no parking or waiting area for cabs.
Once they get the kinks out, this place will be quite the draw!
Fantastic rooms
Even though this hotel has only been opened for a few weeks, the rooms and public areas are furnished to extremely high standards. The bedroom facilities and quality of fixtures are fantastic. The free minibar and wireless LAN is a nice bonus. There is still some rennovation going, notably on the front of the building and the leisure centre, but overall this is a superb hotel. The only negative I have is on the service. They are still working out issues here and it is obvious. They are also very understaffed in the bar and restaurant. Overall I think that one the initial teetheing problems are overcome, this will be an outstanding place to stay.
Great new hotel, superb building
Due to circumstances I had to book a hotel in the city where I live and heard about this new hotel. The location is great, close to Central Station and tourist places like Chinatown and Red Light District. Although the hotel is still doing some renovations, the building is one of the most beautiful buildings I ever saw. A lot of stained glass (on the top floor) and marble, all in a kind of Art Deco style, incredible! Staff was friendly and helpful. It is a truly great new 5 star hotel in Amsterdam, which I can recommend to everyone.
An historical overnight stay
When you are looking for an amazing experience in Amsterdam and willing to pay for history and culture smoothly mixed with luxure and comfort, you should absolutely schedule a weekend in the Amrath Amsterdam.
Last week I booked 2 rooms for a relaxing weekend in Amsterdam with my girlfriend and her parents. We were overwhelmed by this luxurious hotel situated in a fantastic historical building. Though you can feel that they are in a try-out period and practising around a little at some issues (check-in and signing), they absolutely give you the feeling that you are an important guest for them and that they are more than willing to learn from your comments.
We more than enjoyed dinner (timing and taste are great) in a fantastic ambiance. And appreciated the overwhelming service (especially in the hotel bar). Both rooms, though quite different, were in one word "perfect" and it might be only minnor details on which they should pay attention (rooms-equipment was not totally complete yet).
We experienced our overnight stay as historical and it was not only the building which gave us this feeling!
Un hotel nuevo estupendo, en un edificio magnífico
Debido a las circunstancias tuve que reservar un hotel en la ciudad donde vivo y o� acerca de este hotel nuevo. La ubicaci�n es genial, cerca de la estaci�n central y de lugares tur�sticos, como Chinatown y el Barrio Rojo. Aunque en el hotel siguen haciendo algunas reformas, el edificio es uno de los m�s hermosos que he visto. Mucho vidrio de color (en la �ltima planta) y m�rmol, todo en una especie de estilo Art Dec�, �incre�ble! El personal era amable y servicial. Es un hotel nuevo de cinco estrellas realmente estupendo en �msterdam que le puedo recomendar a todo el mundo.
Tolles, neues Hotel, prächtiges Gebäude
Aufgrund besonderer Umst�nde musste ich ein Hotel in der Stadt buchen, in der ich lebe und ich hatte von diesem neuen Hotel geh�rt. Die Lage ist spitze, nahe dem Hauptbahnhof und Touristenattraktionen wie Chinatown und dem Rotlichtviertel.
Auch wenn das Hotel immer noch etwas renoviert wird, ist das Geb�ude eins der sch�nsten, die ich je gesehen habe. Viel Buntglas (im obersten Stockwerk) und Marmor, alles in einer Art Jugendstil, unglaublich! Die Angestellten waren freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es ist echt ein tolles, neues 5-Sterne-Hotel in Amsterdam, das ich jedem empfehlen kann.
No Pool Gym Etc Till December 2007!
My friend and I booked in for 2 nights for 400 € only to find all the "wellness" facilities are not complete. On the trip advisor website there is no mention of this minor detail! On the hotel website there is nothing but a very overlookable mention to the fact at the end of the wellness section. An apology was given at the hotel but no discount.
Bad show for a newly opened "5 star" hotel. Till december it should officially be listed as a "3 star".

Human hair wigs are quite common and can be a significant investment. This is mainly because 100 percent European real hair is highly reputable and in great demand. Ethical hair wig manufactures have to pay a higher price for pristine, high quality human hair. However, high quality human hair wigs can last for a long time (15-30 months), if maintained properly. Usually synthetic hair wigs have a much shorter shelf life. This means using wigs made using human are more suited for all those who're bearing with long term hair loss or loss that's affecting their entire scalp (alopecia totalis).
Custom-made for a great fit
Unlike synthetic wigs, various real hair varieties can be custom made to fit your exact head size. The process of creating your own wig begins with a cast taken of your head and scalp. This is converted by the manufacturer into a bespoke wig base and then hair is added systematically. The biggest benefit is that this type of wig is very secure and safe, and you can easily lead a normal life without worrying about your wig. Again, if you're suffering from long-term hair loss, a real hair wig can genuinely help you lead a happy and normal life, free from stress and worry of wig security.
Realistic Appearance thanks to some special features
Obviously a real hair wig is closest one you can get to your own hair. These wigs are made using 100 percent natural hair and respond like your own hair. They can absorb moisture, and colors can also be removed or added to them. These real hair wigs also look more realistic, and some custom made one offer features that some ready-to-wear synthetic hair wigs do not offer. For example, human hair can drawn through. Hair is carefully threaded through two fine layers of base material, so there is no visible join between the base and the hair. In other words, hair looks like it's growing out of scalp creating an incredibly realistic effect.
If you have plans to buy a human hair wig, you should look one that comes with features like lace fronts and monofilament tops where hair is individually knotted on the top so that it moves around more naturally.
Styling Versatility!
Contrary to popular belief, European hair wigs from http://www.simmyswigs.co.uk/european-hair-wigs/ are usually not supplied in a specific cut style. They're normally supplied "uncut" and you can choose your desired style that is then cut by a qualified wig specialist. As your hair is completely real, you have many styling options just like your natural hair. You can use heated appliances as per manufacture guidelines. You can even go to swimming, providing you condition and shampoo your wig afterwards. However, you need to keep in mind that individual strands cannot be replenished. Therefore, you need to take care while sunbathing, styling, brushing, and going out in windy weather. Natural fibers such as hoods and silk scarves are best suited for protecting the real hair.
Restore Your Confidence
Because of their realistic appearance and extra security, real hair wigs can be closest to your natural hair. This means your wig will go undetected which in turn will boost your confidence and self-esteem. Many people who wear these wigs have never looked back! Visit Simmys Wigs to find out more about the different types of wigs available on the market.

Skip to comments.Ron Paul: Police Manhunt For Boston Marathon Bombing Suspect Scarier Than Attack
Posted on 04/30/2013 5:30:30 AM PDT by Biggirl
Former Rep. Ron Paul said the law enforcement that swarmed around Boston in the days following the marathon bombings was scarier than the actual terrorist attack.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...
Somewhat agree.
I know what he means but he'll be crucified for it as uncaring to the victims and unsupportive of law enforcement by the drive-bys.
The historical potential for mass murder is far greater for a police state as demonstrated in the manhunt,
than for all the terrorist attacks combined.
After watching the Dornier manhunt and then the Boston terrorist manhunt can anyone even comprehend what would happen should there be squads of hundred men strong teams of pro-2A militia intent upon removing corrupt higher office holding persons absolutely without a doubt illegally going against the Constitution?
All across America at the same time?
no wonder DHS wants a couple billion rounds of ammo, they must be deathly terrified the sheeple are gonna uprise against the evil mutton butchers.
Is anyone in Boston complaining?
My guess is that they were terrified that they would be blown up next and are happy that the two were stopped.
I am counting on Liz Warren to take care of Boston, they voted for her.
If police searched without warrants does that mean that what they found could not be used against them in court?
Mixed feelings.
FReepers don't want to admit it but they don't have any other solutions and don't want to admit that the days of the posse weren't much different.
Some criticism of the manhunt may be valid, but how many Bostonians died or lost limbs at the hands of law enforcement officers during the manhunt?
I would say FReepers do have solutions, however unlike the left if we say them in this forum, the FBI will come knocking on doors.
Will wait till the SHTF then figure it out. Plus we are better at organizing in a distributed manner.
Personally I think less cops and more community involvement is one option but I don't have any expectation of perfection.
I would also remind the people that police are potentially dangerous (as they should be sometimes) and its a tense situation.
Ron Paul went a bit too far. I don't like the comparison, but he has a point on the heavy-handed manner of LE.
There are escaped prisoners loose every now and then, and madmen and armed criminals are on the loose in very major city. Note the idiotic LE didn't even catch the last guy until Coupe Deval ended the lockdown, and a commoner called 911. It was not just unreasonable and disgraceful, it didn't work all that well. Will they have lockdowns anytime there is any perceived danger?
I completely agree, the hunt should have been surreptitious and careful not overbearing bullsheet
It was a pretty short lived 'police state' and its sounds like they got the right people(the brothers) pretty timely, much to the Boston locals relief. If those two were roaming around for weeks or months, like the DC sniper was here for months in late 2002, I bet the locals would be really upset. I remember some people here terrified to go outside back then.
Ron Paul is just trying to look relevant but its not working with this.
What is really scary is that these freaks were in this country at all when the FBI knew about them. There are plenty more like them hanging out the local mosques and the government does not care to do anything at all about it. It would seem they take a giddy pleasure in the deaths of their fellow countrymen. There is no other reasonable explanation for these things happening in this country.
I am beginning to believe that our government wants civil war and blood shed in this country. It is all they will need to consolidate their power. This is why we have the open borders policy. It is not because Washington cares for them. It is because they despise the independent individual and all efforts are being made to destroy the very idea of freedom and intelligence. I can no longer give any of them the benefit of the doubt. If we Americans cannot find our courage and put an end to this while it is still relatively painless, it may be our families blood that is the next to spill.
Absolute corruption corrupts absolutely.
I may have it wrong that adage but when we have all across America SWAT teams nearly as well armed as the military all it takes is a corrupt government to take control.
We need a strong and capable police force for when the time comes, what we don't want is that same force being issued orders when push comes to shove trying to enforce an illegal regime across the nation, or the prevent the people from correcting such political mistakes.
thats right, political mistakes or enemy action, can be viewed as the same by many.
Biden's comments in Boston were laughable; "terrorists lost...Boston won't be intimidated...etc"
that's exactly what happened during the manhunt and lockdown.
Typical dem propaganda ....180 degrees from true. Up=down. True=false.
If he or Obie say its true it most certainly is not.
If big Sis says they're not hoarding ammo you know they are. Facing tax increases is preceded with "I won't raise taxes one dime"
I swear its a dem strategy. When they plan to implement strategy X, step #1 is to proclaim they would never ever consider strategy X.
I am nauseous to read the comments on this thread from so many who seem to believe that trading liberty for safety is okay — on FR of all places.. IT IS NEVER OKAY in a civilian community. The manhunt could have been done without all the militant police. I am shocked and dismayed at the attitudes expressed here. There should be outrage... I strongly suspect after reading this that FR has been heavily infiltrated by lefties...
Police had no right to bang on doors - point guns a civilians who came to the door - no right - none. Then outrageously at some homes people were made to coming out of their homes with hands on their heads - shouted at abusively. Then without warrant - the police entered and searched the homes -— That is one of the major reasons we fought the Revolutionary War !!!
There was not probable cause to do this - none. It was brute force.
I am ashamed of FR members who write such drivel saying that it is OKAY - no it is NOT.
Police state experiment successful : the sheep even some on this site don't complain. here's a hint, gov is the enemy
what's Franklin's quote :
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin
Hayek's quote
'Emergencies' have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have been eroded.
Friedrich August von Hayek
Mencken qoute
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
H. L. Mencken
2.5 milion home invasions per year in the U.S.A and the police thugs won't protect you against that which is actually probable : a mass shooter as in adam lanza(.0000000000000000001% chance) is not probable. still i haven't been home invaded even though there are thousands of thugs out here in the city. but i'm ready with high caliber semi-auto weapons if they do invade and don't want the stupid police "Help".
They didn't lose limbs.....they lost liberties.
He was Right, Millions just listening and not understanding it is their personnel responsibility and to allow military style search for 1 person. Had this individual tried to come into our home only one would have walked out at best.
We are becoming a nation of wimps, who in general, do not understand out Rights or Responsibilities.
As I posted on another thread last night:
A little lesson on the law: Allowing police to come into your home, even if its just for a new officer to introduce him/herself, is silent consent. If the officer sits down on your couch, feels something funny, pulls your unregistered revolver from the seat cushions, youre in trouble. The same can happen in your vehicle. The cop pulls you over, asks you to get out, and starts going through your trunk. You have nothing to hide so why protest! You dont say no so by doing so youre saying yes. He finds your teenage sons friends bag of weed. Guess whos going to jail for this? I just took part in a huge Bill of Rights high school assembly. These scenarios are exactly the examples that the lawyers presented. If those cops saw anything in those houses, the fact that the residents let them in to look for a terrorist is irrelevant.
Yes, everything can be used against them. Failing to tell the police no and opening the door to your home is silent consent.
I can't say he's wrong. What bothered me most is the way the people of Watertown simply bent over and took it. I hope anyone there who refused to let the police in and were forcibly searched will follow up with a lawsuit.
In the Dorner manhunt the police shot up several completely innocent people in their vehicles. Fortunately no one was killed.
Considering all the rounds thrown by police while the last suspect lay bleeding and unarmed inside a boat, I think they were more lucky than anything else in this last go around.
It was a civilian resident who found Tsarnaev, not a cop. The search did nothing to find him. Simply cordoning the area would have produced the same result.
Yes, telling the police they can search your home is consent. But what about those who were not home or who didnt answer the door? And if they were say drug dealers with lots of the product out in the open (inside) they could just refuse.
If those people agreed to a search then it wasnt much of a police state action.
Look I have no problem with people using this search tactic to bash the governor. If a Republican governor had done this the left would be all over it. However, one of the reasons for this house to house searh in that neighborhood was that a suspected terrorist cell was harboring the fugitive. Both terrorist drove all over Waltham and Watertown for an hour, dense city streets, that only a local would have knowledge to navigate. They could have easily gotten on the Mass Pike and gassed up the car in five minutes from where the hijacking took place Allston. Who were the looking for or who did they meet up with in Watertown?
the gov also ORDERED everyone to not leave their house and for no one to go in
Aiming rifles at Americans in windows is a very big deal. Dragging Americans out of houses German Nazi style is a big deal.
"Raus! Raus! Schnell! Raus!"
And Americans didn't object at all. Just wait for the "real" national emergency, and not just this little demo project. I'm sure the DHS/SA/SS is very happy with the placid sheeple response to Watertown.
Stuff like that plant the "seeds" for "revolt".
You open your borders, let in tens of millions of low-lifes and criminals, and this result is inevitable.
Liberty is not for everyone. That's why we have jails. And locks on doors, and fences, and bank vaults.
It's nothing new.
If they needed to search homes because of the possibility that the terrorist was holding up in a home and was taking hostages, why did they force the inhabitants to keep their hands up at gunpoint and pat them down? Could the terrorist have disguised himself that well or have been hiding in someone's pocket? The cops weren't looking for the suspect, they were treating all citizens as criminals and conducting illegal searches.
.....Yet the irony of it all is that it took a guy who wanted to go out for a "smoke" to find bomber number 2, right in his boat!
Who pays for the time missed from work?
And what was amazing is how willingly the people in Boston were willing to give up their freedom and dignity. Being patted down at gunpoint under the guise of looking for a particular suspect?
So you're good with having your neighborhood locked down like a cell block and have a dozen or so men with sub machineguns remove you and your family from your home at gunpoint while they ransack your house... As long as they don't shoot and/or kill you?
I just can't help but wonder how many FReepers would feel the same outrage if it were a civilian posse doing exactly the same with zero oversight.
Lord knows how much property civilian posses destroyed over the years, or how many searches they conducted, or how many innocents they wounded or killed, or how many executions they carried out without benefit of trial.
None of it was right but we need some balance rather than grabbing our crotches and screaming "police state!".
No, we don't need a strong and capable police force. When you get that, you boston only worse next time. 99% of them will follow whatever orders they are given. Ask one of them if they would have followed the orders to put Anne Frank on a train to the camps in nazi germany and watch them squirm to avoid giving you an honest yes or no answer. The real answer is they would load her ass onto that rail car. The laws of human nature have not been repealed. Americans are going to have to learn the hard way that the police are not their friends.
Stupid...foot in mouth . Sometimes you're better off keeping opinion to self.
If you're in the hospital deaf with your ears still ringing or looking at the stumps that were your legs. No you idiot it's not scarier.
Has anyone made any legitimate complaints about that Boston police action on themselves? Like any unrelated arrests or seizures of private property resulting from these searches?
Or did they just make the locals feel more secure? Like I said, if these two were running around for months like the DC snipers were in 2002 there would be lots of angry Bostonians.
Clearly Ron Paul is just blogging from else-where.
This is the best he can find to complain about?
The left has found the range. Only crazy Ron Paulites object!
Forget that one million people under martial law, while law enforcement lies about the terrorist being armed to avoid early scrutiny. That's just sausage making details there.
Finally, the media can run with the story -it's Paulites.
Door to door warrantless searches did NOT get the 2 bombers, it was a guy outside the search zone who noticed a blood stain on his boat.
Those who sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither freedom or security.
Another point to consider.....
I noticed at least one SWAT team member in Watertown had what looked like a digital camcorder mounted on top of his helmet.
I wouldn't appreciate having the layout of my house, the rooms and their contents recorded. An invasion of privacy as well as a potential threat to the security of both myself and my family members.
Who saw those images? Were they destroyed or deleted after the search of a home didn't turn up any terrorists?
We are together 100% on that one.
Ron is the King of irrelevance. He'd be whining about those two terrorists treatment if he thought anyone would care.
This sounds so far about nothing.
Ron Paul needs a different hobby now that he is retired.
He is still the king of irrelevence.
I agree.
How many homes were "ransacked", names and addresses, please.
"Door to door warrantless searches did NOT get the 2 bombers, it was a guy outside the search zone who noticed a blood stain on his boat."
Sure the searches were part of why they got the terrorist. If police don't chase them, shoot it out with them, and cordon off the area, as well as search the houses, the loser doesn't hop in a boat bleeding all over the boat.

4 Vt organizations get $350k for rural housingNovember 15,2013
4 Vt. groups get
funds for housing
MONTPELIER Four Vermont groups are going to be getting $350,000 in federal grants to help improve housing conditions for low-income rural residents.
The money will be used to make general repairs, energy and weatherization improvements and code updates to more than 130 households in Vermont.
Almost $300,000 of those grants is headed to the Northeast Kingdom as a Rural Economic Area Partnership Zone, a designation recognizing the unique rural nature of a region.
U.S. Sens. Patrick Leahy and Bernard Sanders and U.S. Rep. Peter Welch say the investments in housing improvements will make lives and communities better.

If you hire a security company to help keep your workplace safe for customers and employees, make sure your supervisors don't wind up providing specific direction to the guards the company assigns to your company.
If you and your staff resist the temptation to control their every move and give them just general instructions, the security company and its guards remain independent contractors. That's important for liability reasons.
You aren't responsible for the misdeeds of independent contractors. But if you treat them like employees, they'll lose their independent status—and you will be liable if they don't do their jobs properly.
Recent case: Andrew Dean and his friend checked into a Buffalo Holiday Inn. The hotel had a contract with Shamrock Security to provide security. Shamrock in turn hired off-duty cops to work at the motel. The manager would report problems to the guards, who were then expected to handle those problems themselves.
Dean and his friend called 911 when someone started banging on their door. They believed the knocker was a taxi driver with whom they had recently argued. In reality, it was a Shamrock security guard who had been dispatched to the room to get the guests to quiet down. One thing led to another, and the men were arrested after police backup arrived and sprayed tear gas under the door.
The men sued the motel, alleging that it was responsible for the negligent hiring of the security guard, who apparently had a history of ill temper at his day job as a police officer.
But the court dismissed the case. It said the hotel hired Shamrock Security as an independent contractor. The hotel wasn't responsible for how Shamrock handled its hiring because the hotel didn't control exactly how the company provided security. (Dean, et al., v. City of Buffalo, et al., No. 02-CV-6029, WD NY, 2008)

Oh, I do. But those making these decisions AREN"T doing it for you or me, but for their globalist financial backers. I think that most politicians today, both Euro and American, are in it for themselves and their uber-rich globalist pals, not for us. They see America and us voters as simply means to an end. We are here to finance their dreams, not our own anymore.
Billions have already been poured into Kosovo, and the money has simply disappeared with no financial progress for those living there, and an unemployment rate of of 50%. Kosovo has simply become the world's biggest money laundering operation, with it big brother, Albania, not far behind. (The US Ambassador to Albanian is under investigation.)
good post. i couldn´t agree more
Besides that, we are paying jizya to the Kosovar Shiptars, the "Palestinians", and other muslim miscreants. I would NEVER pay jizya to the muslims on my own, but our government mis-leaders take my tax money and do it anyway.

That director is going to write a report to the clinician in charge of the case that in order of sensitivity testing, inhalational antibiotic A is better than B, C, D or E, but that C and E also have clear zones that indicate bactericidal activity. That report will be reviewed by the clinician and in consultation with the patient, the inhalational antibiotic regimen will be determined.
There are so many strains of Pa that different antibiotics among A, B, C, D and E will be chosen for each case. So if Arikace gets approved, it will be among the inhalational antibiotics tested. WL put the emphasis on the once per day inhalation regimen and the residual accumulation in the macrophages of the lung. That is still the strongest case . . . medically speaking.

Hezbollah lashed out at United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon over a report released on Monday warning of increasing instability in Lebanon.
The report on Security Council Resolution 1559 calls for the withdrawal of foreign forces from Lebanon and the disarmament of all militias.
Monday's release comes one week after Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's official state visit to Lebanon, where he received a hero's welcome from Hezbollah.
In the report, Ban warns that the situation in Lebanon could spread throughout the region.
Hezbollah released a statement accusing the U.N. of meddling in Lebanese affairs.
"The report released by U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Resolution 1559…marks interference in internal Lebanese affairs as well as political interference in the affairs of the international tribunal," the statement read.
The group accused the secretary-general of failing to notice that Hezbollah "has been at the heart of Lebanese politics" through its inclusion in the parliament "for quite some time now."
Meanwhile, the U.N. Special Tribunal for Lebanon is expected to release indictments as early as next month, based on its three-year investigation into the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Some analysts believe the tribunal is likely to indict members of Hezbollah, which could trigger civil war in Lebanon.
Current Prime Minister Sa'ad Hariri, son of the slain premier, invited Hezbollah into his government.
Hariri futher granted Hezbollah the right to use its Iranian-provided arms cache against Israel.

Unfortuantely for him this is the only way he derives pleasure!! Fortunately for the rest of us we won't be hearing from him anytime soon because as BSX goes up he disappears due to his narcisistic tendencies which won't allow him to admit being wrong. So if BSX goes up not only do the longs make $ but as a big bonus we lose the biggest loser on this board (that would be you BSX_DECLINES since your a little slow!) Good luck to all!

Social mobility is shifting from one social status to another, commonly to a status that is either higher or lower. For example, a child of day laborers who becomes a professor achieves upward social mobility. In sociology, social mobility explains changes (or lack thereof) in social status. Societies organized by social class, rather than caste, usually allow greater social mobility; in such societies, one's ability to achieve a higher social status can depend on factors such as social connections, wealth, effort, and education. In meritocracies, social status depends on merit. Gender and race can limit upward social mobility, and many sociologists believe social mobility depends more on social structures — such as the opportunities offered to different groups of people — rather than individual efforts.

The West Texas A&M Buffs will be happy the third week of January will forever be in their rear-view mirror.
The Buffs' four-day stretch through the elite of Lone Star Conference South Division men's basketball concluded Saturday night with their undefeated record at home ending at the hands of impressive Tarleton State.
WT Stumbles
Records: West Texas A&M is 11-8 overall, 2-2 in the LSC South Division. Tarleton State is 14-4, 3-0.
Noteworthy: WT sees its streak of eight straight home wins end.
Tarleton State grabbed sole possession of first place in the South at 3-0 by using a 13-2 run during the opening six minutes of the second half to build a 13-point cushion and ride out the remaining 14 minutes for a 69-56 victory before 2,535 fans in the First United Bank Center.
The Buffs were coming off Wednesday's 21-point loss at Midwestern State (15-1 entering Saturday) and dropped to 2-2 in the South race.
"Some people believe we have two personalities (one at home and one on the road)," said WT starting junior guard LaDarius Hall, who scored 11 points and shared the team lead in rebounds with five. "It just comes down to toughness. We have a lack of toughness when it comes to making stops at the defensive end.
"Hey, we have a really good team. We play as a team. We almost always win by double digits."
For a half, the Buffs appeared to have shaken off Wednesday's lackluster effort in Wichita Falls when they allowed 22 offensive rebounds and lost 27 turnovers.
The game was knotted at 31 at halftime, and the Buffs held a 7-0 advantage on offensive rebounds. But the Buffs never recovered from those opening six minutes of the second half.
During the 13-2 run, Tarleton came up with five turnovers and scored in a variety of ways with its patience offense. Jeremiah Wilson opened the run by scoring inside, while Warren Webb closed it out with an offensive rebound for a 44-33 lead with 14:01 remaining.
Although the Buffs cut the margin to five, Tarleton just found more offense than the Buffs throughout the second half. The Texans made 13-of-19 field-goal attempts (68.4 percent) over the final 20 minutes, while WT was 7-of-21 from the floor during that same time and didn't make a 3-pointer against the Tarleton State zone.
"That was huge the 13-2 run," said Tarleton State veteran coach Lonn Reisman. "Both teams were out there playing hard. Rick Cooper does a tremendous and we know how good West Texas is. We played well. We knew we had to keep them shooting below 40 percent and we did in the second half.
"We kept the glue together to stay with them in the first half and the in the second half we found our fluid part of the game. This is one of the tough venues to play in our conference."
Cooper said those opening moments of the second half the Buffs lost some of their swagger.
"I have great respect for Coach Reisman and their team toughness and the way they play the game," Cooper said. "They are so disciplined offensively. If I didn't have to coach against them it would have been a pleasure to watch.
"When we turned the ball over early in the second half, we lost some confidence. We had three or four turnovers our opening five possessions and that's hard on a team."
Tarleton's guard play ignited the offense and was led by 5-foot-6 senior Effran Bryant who led all scorers with 19 points. Bryant hit a trio of treys and also canned eight of his nine free throws.
Forward Devon Hills added 16 for Tarleton, while 5-11 guard Corin Henry contributed 11 along with Donta Smith.
The Buffs shook things up from the start giving redshirt freshman Mason White of Randall his second career start and inserting guard DeVonte Pryor into the game early.
WT did win the battle of the boards at 31-23, but its struggle to score consistently in the second half proved too much to overcome.
Guard Joe Mincey led the Buffs with 18, followed by Hall's 11.
"We just have to come out and work hard," Hall said. "We can turn this around."

About our ship: The Liberty of the Seas. She is a large beauty, with just about anything anyone could want to do, for any age group. She has all the famous Royal Caribbean fun things to do like a rock climbing wall, three pool areas with hot tubs in each, "The Flow Rider" for people who want to try their luck surfing on the back of the ship, various restaurants, some free like in The Windjammer, and the main dining rooms, some not free like the low cost Johnny Rockets, The upscale dining at Portafinos, or at Chops Grill, they have production shows in their beautiful theater, a separate movie theater, an "On Air" bar for Kareoke lovers, and many many other bars through the ship. They even have their own Ice Skating Rink, for people to enjoy ice skating while cruising the Caribbean. The Ice Skating Production Show has the absolute Best shows with extremely talented skaters, and in outstanding costumes you will ever see anywhere, at anytime, and it is free of charge by the way! And personally I love the Promenade in the ship that has shops selling clothes, shops for jewelry, watches, Logo Items Shop, a store to buy reduced priced alcoholic bottled beverages, a Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Shop, a Sorrentos' Pizza Place, and a Cafe that is open twenty four hours a day serving coffees, teas, small sandwiches, and pastries, & cookies in case you get hungry! There is also a Pub Bar, and Wine Bar, and finally even a Champagne Bar on the Promenade in case you get thirsty. I find that the Promenade provides a great way to get around the ship, and people watch, and even remember where your cabin is too!
About the cruise itself: Our service on board Royal Caribbean, whether in the dining room, or in our cabin has always been excellent. The crew works very hard to make your cruise experience pleasant, and memorable. Your dinner is well served, the wait staff always goes out of their way to be efficient and friendly. Your cabin is clean, including the bathroom, and your room tidied and the bed made twice a day. I as a woman love having the luxury of a clean cabin everyday, and lovely meals whether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner without any of the work it takes on my vacation!
Cozumel is a fun and safe place to go, that always has a lot to see and do on a Shore Excursion there. We have been many times before and have shopped there, gone on Snorkeling Excursions there, taken boating trips, gone on "Beach Days" at one of the many Beach Clubs available along the shoreline, and you can even take an excursion to see Mayans Ruins on the Island, or on the mainland at the ruins in "Tulum".
Finally, a comment on our cabin aboard the Liberty. I picked out a cabin on the stern (the rear) of the ship, because I knew that these balcony cabins have a larger balcony area, than your regular balcony. Our particular cabin was on Deck 10, and was on the very back corner, and it was HUGE! It was also very quiet back there, and a retreat away from the rest of the ship to sit out on. We have booked a Junior Suite once before on a RCCL ship, which was large and very enjoyable; but my husband felt that this was the best cabin we have ever had the pleasure of cruising in. Our cabin attendant Leo said that these two cabins on either end of deck ten never go empty, and I can see why. We will not hesitate to try and book a similar cabin in the future. Anyway, it was all together, for many reasons, a short but great cruise, on a beautiful and fun ship.

Watch: Jason DeRulo's new video for 'It Girl'
Jason DeRulo is ready to commit, ladies. He's looking for "25 to life" if you're his "It Girl."
The song is from DeRulo's second album, "Future History," which comes out Sept. 27. It follows the much catchier "Don't Wanna Go Home," which peaked at No. 14 on Billboard's Hot 100.
The Colin Tilly-directed clip, shot partially in a mansion overlooking the Pacific Ocean, shows Derulo's softer side. "For the video, I wanted it to be an open book," Derulo told MTV News. "I wanted it to be almost like a photo album, so every single scene is kind of like a picture that you're kind of looking into our relationship. So it is a 1920s vibe, it's black and white, very high fashion — you know, you'll see me very dapper in 1920s, Frank Sinatra-ish. So you'll see the cars from that era, you'll definitely feel the vibe of the house having that 1920s vibe as well. So it's very different and very intimate, and it's not a lot of dancing — it's more personal."
[More after the jump...]
When he's not busy showing off his dance moves, he's living the high life wiht his lady in their palatial estate. He sings to her, she wraps her legs around him, they pose in some awesome topiary gardens. It's not the most thrilling of videos, and he may want to think twice about moonwalking in a video-- someone did it before him and better-- but it's a nice change of pace from some of his more hectic, gruffer clips.

EPP shine in India
England fast bowling coach Kevin Shine was struck by the contrasting elements of the England Performance Programme's successful tour of India.
Shine, who once bowled fast for Hampshire and Middlesex before retiring in his early 30s to concentrate on coaching, was head coach on the recent EPP trip to the sub-continent which also included Yorkshire coach Martyn Moxon and Warwickshire's director of cricket Ashley Giles.
The players were based at Loughborough University for the first half of their winter schedule before decamping to India during November and December.
Shine told ecb.co.uk: "It was an interesting type of tour - the two weeks in Mohali were purely trying to prepare them for the fact that any one of them could be called out to play for England - that was the whole emphasis of the time there.
"Then obviously we went to Chennai and had a couple of matches against first-class cricketers from India and Sri Lanka.
"When you do go to India you do play in more spin-friendly conditions but we were at the MRF pace foundation for the second part of the tour, so the wickets usually have a bit of pace and bounce in them, but on the whole we found the wickets to be very flat - especially the one used for the four-day match.
"This did allow James Tredwell and Adil Rashid to get a long bowl and the England batters were never short of spin bowlers in the nets - we had 15 plus bowlers every time we had a net session - and most of them were spinners.
"Normally if you have a small group of seamers with you when you are on tour you have to be very careful with how much work they get through in the nets, but because there were reams of bowlers it was great and the batters had plenty of opportunity.
"Martyn Moxon did a great job specifically working with the batters and the spinners had Ashley Giles on hand and he proved to be an excellent coach. I think he will make a very fine coach."
The England side won both their fixtures during the second half of the tour, the first won by scoring more in the first-innings against a MRF XI, and the second by 111 runs against the same side.
Somerset's James Hildreth scored 136 off 130 balls in the first match and followed it up with 63, while Hampshire's Michael Carberry compiled 134 during the second game while Jonathan Trott registered scores of 114 and 82, during his time in India.
Durham seamer Graham Onions bowled with tenacity on a very flat wicket during the last match to claim 4-37 but the tour was about more than just competitive cricket.
The squad were joined by Kent seamer Amjad Khan, who is fighting his way back to fitness following a prolonged absence because of a knee injury that has put him out of the game for more than a year.
Shine expanded: "I am really pleased with how Amjad is coming on - obviously he was specifically out there to rehab and he worked incredible hard with Craig Ranson and the other physios.
"We finished with him bowling off a half-run for eight overs - that is a big step for him seeing that is the first time he has had a ball in his hand for a while.
"By the end of the two weeks out there we probably had him up to about 60 per cent and the really encouraging thing about him is that he did not get any pain and all the skills seem intact, because if you have not bowled for a year you could forget what you are supposed to do."
The England Lions squad to India which begins at the end of January is a target for many of the members of the EPP but it has come too soon for Amjad.
"He is not in the frame for the Lions tour," Shine stated.
"He has worked really hard so we will give him a rest over the Christmas period and then reprogram him in the new year which will probably involve him coming out to Chennai with me to the MRF pace bowling clinic at some time.
"Then we are looking to get him ready for the season but it is a really tough call. We are not trying to rush that one but we are very positive about the future."
Shine confirmed that the Lions squad will be announced in the near future.
"I am just waiting for a meeting with David Graveney, Geoff Miller and Peter Moores (the England selectors), so that announcement is probably imminent," he said.

Skip to comments.Freep the CANSWER from ANSWER on March 18th-20th
Posted on 02/22/2006 7:09:25 PM PST by Thunder90
An opprutunity to freep communists from ANSWER and the other antiwar and anti-American groups is coming up on Mar 18th. They will be in big cities all around the US, including LA, San Francisco, New York City, Washington DC, Chicago, and other cities.
Details from the communists are below:
The A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition joins with antiwar organizations globally in calling for March 18-20, 2006, to be Global Days of Action. This is the third anniversary of Bush's criminal aggression against the people of Iraq.
March 18 - March 19 Locally-Coordinated Antiwar Protests
On Saturday, March 18 and Sunday, March 19, 2006, locally-coordinated demonstrations will take place in cities and towns across the U.S. and around the world, including in New York City, Washington DC, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle and many more.
Read the Call to Action Endorse the Global Days of Action List a March 18-19 Antiwar Event Monday, March 20 Youth & Student Day of Resistance to Imperialism
On Monday, March 20, young people will organize acts of resistance in their schools and communities. See below for the statement that was adopted at the November 6 Youth and Student A.N.S.W.E.R. Strategy Meeting held in New York City at Hunter College. --------------------------------------------------------
The D.C. Chapter of FR, Protest Warriors, Young Republicans and other conservative groups in D.C. will be ready for their antics
Bump in support for all my DC Freeper and PW friends!
A.N.S.W.E.R. couldn't get enough people to fill up the bleachers atop Lenin's tomb for the next May Day parade in Moscow.
A.N.S.W.E.R. is dead for all intents and purposes, but take no chances. Step on their throats while they are down. Don't let a threat to world freedom back up once it's down.
A.N.S.W.E.R. is hated by the anti-war community for being a dictatorship, that's why UFPJ was formed, that plus A.N.S.W.E.R.'s Stalinist garbage started to stink up the "hey were normal American's too" role playing.
UFPJ's Cagen is just a shorter Brian Becker who at least lets the hate America left think they're in charge too. But she puts them in the car's backseat in that child seat with the toy steering wheel (steering committee). The left turns that toy steering wheel left, the left turns that toy steering wheel right, all the while thinking they are controlling the UFPJ car. But it's definitely Cagen and ONLY Cagen that has the real control overe where the car goes.
Thanks, I needed that.
Is ANSWER still around? We shouldn't have any trouble getting FReepers and Protest Warriors out to 'answer' them.
Looking for further details. Hopefully we will have more than a couple days notice.
You mean thier LAST "Day Everything Changed", after the OTHER "Day Everything Changed" didn't change anything???????
The action will be in Fayetteville. (This is a decoy).
Hope to see you there.
You're kidding, right?
Will see what we can do.
Ditto! ;*)
I'll see you at the Freep! You the man, Doc.
This'll be good. Haven't been to a good freep in months!
Oh, please! GMAFB!
You make the ordinary font size look teeny-weeny.
We will see. If they say Fayetteville, be ready to deploy there. They may also pack the DC ANSWER/UFPJ people in to go to NYC.
save for later
You got that right, Brother.
The DC Chapter of Protest Warrior will not allow these morons to go unanswered.
Every year they do the dance, but it's just a decoy.
They won't want to miss Cindy, et al in Fayetteville.
Looks like they are going to protest outside of the Pentagon!!!!!!
Here it is..
I needed to get that off my chest....
ANSWER could only get 18 people to take the day trip bus from DC to Fayetteville after they had to cancel their DC plans due to lack of interest.
Her fans in Fayetteville will be disappointed if she does not make it back on time. :-(
Y'all are invited to the party, and we'd love to have you!
If you decide to join us in Fayetteville, NC, please FReepmail me for information about hotels, etc.
DAWN will hold a protest in front of the Pentagon on Mar 26th. That will need freeping.
But at least we still get the majority of honks & thumbs up, which surprises us in the leftist most County east of the Rockies.
[Mr] T
UFPJ is becoming more of a dictatorship. They let World Can't Wait and the CPUSA onto it's steering committe. There are even some who want to let ANSWER into it.
WCW is the Revolutionary Communist Party.
"Cagen is a long time CPUSA flunkie.
WCW is the Revolutionary Communist Party."
And ANSWER is Workers World Party.
ANYONE going from NY to NYC at Ground Zero PLEEEEEASElet me know too--if not--I will end up having to travel to join the NJ Coastal PW's and that would be a real juant of a trip for me in my frail condition.
Darth Airborne
Extremists, and

In yet another example of journalistic malpractice, the folks at Fox News broadcast a number of reports that got the most significant facts completely wrong. In order to do so, they relied on the assertions of a single, uncorroborated account, and failed to do the most basic follow-up with the people in a position to know.
Fox News
Shameless self-promotion…
Get Fox Nation vs. Reality. Available now at Amazon.
The latest lie-riddled reporting on Fox concerned the circumstances of the capture and release of Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, the leader of the terrorist group, Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). Fox and other conservative media outlets are endeavoring to place the responsibility for Baghdadi's brutal march through Iraq on President Obama. Representative commentaries include these by Fox hosts Jeanine Pirro and Megyn Kelly:
Pirro: The head of this band of savages is a man by the name of Abu al-Baghdadi. The new Osama Bin Laden. A man released by Obama in 2009, who started ISIS a year later.
Kelly: We are also learning more about the leader of the terror group, a man described as the new Bin Laden, the heir to Bin Laden. It turns out he had been in U.S. custody until 2009, over in Iraq, when he was then turned over to the Iraqi government as part of our troop drawdown. And then he was released.
On Pirro's Saturday program she led into the subject with a mouth-foaming harangue about Obama's "feckless" leadership and socialist designs on America. On Kelly's primetime program she interviewed Col. Kenneth King who claimed to have been present when Baghdadi was transferred from the custody of U.S. forces to the Iraqis, who later allegedly released him to go on to form ISIS. However, an investigation by PolitiFact uncovered a very different story, confirmed by the Defense Department, and branding the Fox report as "false."
"Ibrahim Awad Ibrahim Al Badry, also known as 'Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi' was held as a 'civilian internee' by U.S. Forces-Iraq from early February 2004 until early December 2004, when he was released," the Pentagon said in a statement. "He was held at Camp Bucca. A Combined Review and Release Board recommended 'unconditional release' of this detainee and he was released from U.S. custody shortly thereafter. We have no record of him being held at any other time."
Since the right-wing is so intent on assigning blame for Baghdadi's campaign of terror on the president who was in office when he was set free, then according to their logic it is all Bush's fault. But don't expect Fox News to report the facts as laid out by actual journalists. They won't even report the comments of their own witness, Col. King, who appeared on another network (ABC) and admitted that he "could be mistaken." It turns out that he never knew the name of the man he presumed to be Baghdadi, he just thought there was a resemblance to the man he encountered. Nor will they report Col. King's remarks to the Daily Beast where he downplayed the threat posed by Baghdadi, saying that "He was a bad dude, but he wasn't the worst of the worst."
PolitiFact went on to note that, even if Col. King's account were correct, and Baghdadi was still in custody in 2009, Obama still could not be held to blame for Baghdadi's release. The terms of the Status of Forces Agreement with Iraq required the U.S. to turn over all prisoners to the custody of Iraq's criminal system. That agreement was negotiated and agreed to by the Bush administration in 2008.
Baghdadi and Bush
Be Sure To "LIKE" News Corpse On Facebook
So virtually everything reported by Fox News was wrong. And, not surprisingly, all of the misinformation leaned toward blaming President Obama for the mistakes of President Bush. It'a pattern that is all too familiar. Now that the truth has been revealed and confirmed, we can expect Fox to issue a correction at the earliest opportunity. And if you believe that you are probably already a dimwitted, gullible disciple of the Fox Disinformation Society.
Here's a thread with a redundant title!

Fox news is just plain garbage it will be gone within 10 years as their viewership is dying at an alarming rate.
Amusing responses. This is so typical of the arrogance of the Libroids. Somehow others lies are worse than theirs. How self indulgent do you need to be to even think that way?
Asian American Journalism Organization Calls On Fox News To Apologize For 'Islamophobia'
The Huffington Post | By Catherine Taibi | 8/28/2014
The Asian American Journalists Association has called on Fox News to apologize for its recent segment on ISIS and the murder of US journalist James Foley.
In a letter posted to the organizations website, AAJA took serious issue with a recent discussion on "The Five" about the violent actions of the terrorist group ISIS. During the segment, co-host Andrea Tantaros spoke about Muslims, Islam and ISIS interchangeably.
"They've been doing this for hundreds and hundreds of years if you study the history of Islam," she said. "This isn't a surprise. You can't solve it with a dialogue. You can't solve it with a summit. You solve it with a bullet to the head."
AAJA called the comments "alarming," "inflammatory" and accused the network of perpetuating "Islamophobia."
"AAJA calls for Tantaros and Fox News to apologize for the irresponsible, inflammatory statements," the organization said. "We also call on Fox News to discourage its journalists from making blanket comments that serve to perpetuate hate and Islamophobia. Muslims and Islam are not interchangeable terms with terrorists or ISIS. We in the media know better and must be vigilant in our choice of words."
The Huffington Poost | By Katherine Fung | 08/15/2014
Republican Senator Tom Coburn called out Fox News during a talk on Wednesday, saying that some of the network's shows are exactly the opposite of what the network claims to be in its "Fair and Balanced" slogan.
"There are certain shows on Fox I can't watch," Coburn told audience members at Tulsa Community College in Oklahoma. "Because they're totally not fair and totally not balanced. What I want is, I want all the information in which I can make the best decision."
BuzzFeed reported that he was asked how he would "fix" the media if he were in charge of it. Coburn also said that "the truth is somewhere in between" Fox News, CNN and MSNBC, and lamented the current state of journalism as a whole.
His comments about media start at the 23:40 mark in the video above.
Coburn has criticized Fox News in the past, and several Fox News hosts returned the fire. In 2010, for example, Coburn told voters to not "be biased by Fox News."

It's easy to achieve some level of arrogance when the RWNJs and media sources like Fox show over and over again that they will go to totally unprecedented new and ridiculous levels of constant lying for selfishly narrow and primarily partisan gains that are quite detrimental to the country as a whole.

Blue, Why don't you tell this board ya "amerikans against tea the party, or is it "news korpes" version of the truth on how " Dr. Ibrahim Awwad Ibrahim", aka Bhagdadi got released by Bush, ya brainless parroting? Please feel free to put ya tom foolery on display. BTW, how do ya like ya new found phraseology, is that how ya shrink diagnosed the effects of ya pot head maladies?.....hehehehehehe
Funny You will not parrot the NYT story about Phil M. "insider trading" of "klorox" before the "Ikhan buyout" bid. You are indeed a mindless tool.
The TRUTH is itself.It doesn't matter who broadcasts it if it's the TRUTH. Since you are a Beckbot Fox Noise watching sheeple, you wouldn't recognize the Truth if you ever heard/ saw it. You poor old brainwashed dinosaur....Such a waste of humanity, dedicating your life to evil instead of good, and persecuting and discriminating against those who actually follow the Lord's path.
What is it when BO lies to everyone to get his way
"De Blasio was talking about the latest security concern for the FBI and the NYPD. Al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), the Sunni militant group that is waging a new war in Iraq, had some chilling final words when he walked away from a U.S. detention camp in 2009.
"I'll see you guys in New York," he said."
Is this a lie Blue!?
The point elkie, is that this story was carried in the Washington Post, CBS, NBC and other news outlets in the same fashion as Fox - so where is the outrage over their lie!? Why aren't you crying foul?

nobeach, Ai-Bagdadi said that because the guards had just offered to take him to dinner and a show the next time he was in New York.

"But the narrative solidifies in 2005, when he was captured by American forces and spent the next four years a prisoner in the Bucca Camp in southern Iraq. It was from his time there that the first known picture of Baghdadi emerged. And it's also there, reports Al-Monitor, that he possibly met and trained with key al-Qaeda fighters."

Blue, is it really a lie or less then diligent reporting? Seems to me that in this 24 hour, have to be first with it, news world, just about every news outlet has suffered from this type of mistake.
Well, the left leaning media bias runs the other way Blue. I still remember after the Boston bombing how many on the left immediately thought it was the rwnj's Very wrong weren't. They. Plenty of other examples that you simply can see.
Not when it comes to the partisanship that FN promotes. Their default is blame Obama and Bush/Cheney are heroes. Yet we know better don't we? It was an out right lie, trying to protect Bush.
5 thumbs down and now rebuttals. It must suck to have such cognitive dissonance about nearly everything. Contards are sheep being ruled by wolves that are owned by pigs.
