As the liberal blogosphere confab, Netroots Nation, kicks off today in Las Vegas, it will inevitably further the "Why are progressives disappointed in Obama?" storyline.
In the past few months, liberal commentators have bemoaned that the public option wasn't included in the health care law, that the financial reform legislation -- which President Obama signed into law yesterday -- isn't strong enough, and that Gitmo still isn't closed. The Nation's Eric Alterman even penned a widely discussed essay explaining these disappointments on a system that's stacked against progressives.
But here is something to consider: It's the country -- not the system -- that's stacked against liberals and progressives.
Mark, here are a few things for you to think about, considering YOU are a part of the problem. You write this story as if the whole story is that the people of this country lean to the right, and that's the story. But it's not the story, it's only part of the story, and that's why there's an issue.
People are prone to believe what they are told. Especially when it's a major news media outlet doing the reporting. People feel they should be able to trust what is said on the air to be accurate, truthful, and complete. But it's not. Not by a long shot. And that's why this country seems to lean to the right...it's because that's what most people hear, 24/7, and they believe what they're told.
Consider the right wing hate jocks on radio:
- Glenn Beck
- Mike Gallagher
- Dennis Miller
- Sean Hannity
- Laura Ingraham
- Neal Boortz
- Laura Schlessinger
- G. Gordon Liddy
- Mike Rosen
- The Huckabee Report
- Rush Limbaugh
- etc.
In fact, there are 201 different programs listed on an internet site that allows you to stream these radio programs.
That same site lists just 131 "liberal" programs, and some of them are not as liberal as the conservatives ones are conservative. Diane Rehm, for instance, is certainly not a raging liberal by any means. Progressive radio has far less reach, and few popular shows when compared to the hate radio side of the spectrum.
There are huge sections of the country where you can hear conservative radio on multiple stations, yet not one station broadcasts progressive programming. I've heard it reported that the reason for this is because there is no market for progressive programming, yet when you look at the station ownership mix in these areas, they have conservative corporate ownership with conservative agendas. They squeeze out any opportunity for a different point of view.
Where I live, I would have to drive hundreds of miles to find a progressive radio program over the air. Yet, there are multiple conservative stations that air only hate radio.
When you go into a hotel lobby, they have Fox News on. Same thing at the doctor's office, and many other public places. Could it be that the country leans right because that's all they hear? Conservative values, conservative this, conservative that. Liberals are bad. They're baby killers. They want to tax you to death. Big government. Blah blah blah.
And the truth is, of course, that what is being reported all too often is NOT THE TRUTH. Or sometimes it's only HALF THE STORY, where the part not reported would likely change the story entirely. It happened just this week with Shirley Sherrod. It happened with ACORN. And there have been other instances as well.
The right leaning media reports on the Tea Baggers, with their signs condemning high taxes. Yet they don't report that under the Obama Administration, taxes are lower now for most Americans than they've been in generations.
We're told how bad big government is. And we're not supposed to remember that government got a lot bigger under George Bush and the Republicans.
We're told how horrible the deficit is, and how our children and grand children will be paying for our borrowing. Yet, most of the deficit is due to George Bush and the Republican's tax cuts for the wealthy. MOST. OF. THE. DEFICIT. IS. DUE. TO. TAX. CUTS. FOR. THE. WEALTHY. Is that being reported on Fox News? Is Rush Limbaugh talking about this?
For that matter, are YOU talking about this, Mr. Murray?
If the country is leaning right, I believe it's because that's the only message the majority is getting. MSNBC has several shows that are progressive in nature, but that premium cable channel isn't as widespread as the free Fox News channel is. So the progressive message isn't as pronounced.
There is no fairness in news today. No accountability when you lie, or tell half truths. Glenn Beck can compare our President to Adolf Hitler, and no one bats an eye. Rush Limbaugh can play a song, "Barack the magic negro" over and over again, and that's not racist. But let someone who's viewed as progressive make a perceived--but similar--offense, and there are immediate demands for them to step down, resign, apologize, etc.
Are these same demands placed on "conservative" personalities? I think we all know the answer.
There is a double standard in this country. Right wingers and conservatives can run up the deficit, ruin the economy, start wars based on lies, and generally do whatever they want to do and it's OK. But when progressives or centrists who lean just ever so slightly to the left try to fix the mess the conservatives have created, they are condemned to hell for their actions.
And the media--of which you are part--by and large does NOTHING. Any outrage over things a conservative has done or said is watered down if it's reported at all.
It's a shameful thing. And that's the reason why this country appears to lean to the right. And that's why we need fairness and accountability in today's media.
Are you going to do anything to see that your industry is honest, accurate, and fair, Mr. Murray?

I heard all about it on hate radio this morning, on the way to work. Every other station was playing commercials or something crappy, so this was all that was on. I don't know who the host was, he was male but it wasn't a voice I recognized.
He was talking about how Mexico was the only country who offered help in the Gulf to the U.S. without expecting to be paid for it. When he mentioned Britain, he pointed out that BP was a British company, and that Britain is "supposed to be" an ally of ours.
Then he said that Obama snubbed the Brits by returning a bust of Winston Churchill that had been given to the U.S., and that resulted in hurt feelings. Naturally, they trashed Obama pretty good about that.
So...I came home and checked the facts to find out what the 411 is on this story. Turns out, it's true that Obama did return a bust of Churchill that was on loan from former Prime Minister Tony Blair, who gave it to The Drunken Idiot after 9/11.
The bust was removed as part of the reorganizing (and exterminating) of the Oval Office before the new President moves in. Apparently there's a bust of Abraham Lincoln in that spot now.
The hate radio guy made it seem like this bust had been in the White House for decades, not just during the Bush (p)residency. He also failed to mention it was ON LOAN and not a gift.
At any rate, thought I'd post this in case the story starts making the rounds. Now you know enough to respond.

With all the bad news lately about abusive corporations, I keep having a thought pass through my mind. Ever since the financial sector almost collapsed in 2008, we've heard news reports of powerful executives making bad decisions for their own personal gain. As long as they personally profited, they didn't care about anything else.
We all know how the government had to step in with taxpayer money to bail these financial institutions out, to prevent them from going under. At the same time, millions of hard-working Americans began to lose their jobs because of the bad economy, made much worse by the Wall Streeters. Small businesses didn't have the credit to keep the doors open, so they were forced to close. The lack of credit was due to the big banks, many of which had just themselves been bailed out. They promised to loosen up their lending in return for bail out money, but they didn't. So, lots of people lost their jobs due to the big financial corporations.
Then we got into the health care reform debate. We learned how that industry controls prices, snuffs out competition in some areas of the country, makes decisions based on profit instead of health care or patient needs, and raises premiums and cuts coverage just because they want to. Pretty abusive.
We're still hearing about people losing their homes to foreclosure. They pack up their belongings, and leave the house behind. Sometimes they leave their pets behind because they can't take them with them and are too selfish to tend to their pet, who depends on them. The fact people do this shows just how much this tragedy has effected them.
But it occurred to me that in many instances, these people who are abandoning their homes would not be forced to do so were it not for the negligence, irresponsibility, and greed of others. In fact, the very same people responsible for the collapse of Wall Street are also responsible for many of the jobs lost.
Were it not for the actions of the top executives in the Wall Street firms, many businesses would have still had access to credit, and might have been able to use it to weather the storm a few months, keep the doors open, keep their employees paid, and not be forced to lay people off or shut their doors forever.
THEN I GOT REALLY ANGRY. People in government were so concerned that top executives would leave if they weren't paid well. The banks had to have those big bonuses to retain employees. The fact that these employees oversaw the worst financial disaster since the Great Depression was apparently lost on most. And the fact that they were arguing over multi-million dollar salaries while other innocent victims were being forced out of their homes because of the actions of these abusive executives, was apparently lost on members of Congress, as well as those in the Obama Administration.
And here we are today. The auto makers are still in business, doing much better, some making a profit now. The big banks responsible for the Wall Street crisis are making profits again, and their executives are living in the lap of luxury. We now know the oil companies have been lying to us, sacrificing safety to save money, another example of abuse at the expense of the American people.
But what's really bothering me is this: the very same financial institutions that are responsible for the crisis, and because of that responsibility are also responsible for the loss of jobs of millions of Americans, either because the bank wouldn't loan money, raised interest rates on those already having a difficult time paying their bills, or through refusing to keep interest rates and house payments low.
These very same banks are now forcing the victims of the financial crisis the banks caused out of their homes! This is like running over someone with your car, then just about the time they're going to be released from the hospital, you go in and beat the hell out of them, putting them in a coma!
It's outrageous that this is being allowed. And the fact that it is being allowed says volumes about our members of Congress. All of them, regardless of party. I've not heard anything from the Obama Administration about addressing this. It's almost as if it just doesn't matter to them.
Where else in the world would a bully be allowed to go back and terrorize their victims again? And that's exactly what it is: terrorism. People forced out of jobs and homes through no fault of their own by the very same people who put them in that situation. Where is the humanity? Where is the compassion? Where is the outrage? Where is the action to put a stop to it?
The American people are being raped by big business in this country. And our elected officials are allowing it to happen. The American people are the ones being taken advantage of, victimized, terrorized, and the consideration all seems to be in what's best for the industry.
Don't want those "too big to fail" banks to fail. We're not going to break them apart, but we aren't going to bail them out again. Perhaps a sternly-worded letter will do it.
We can't allow the oil companies to be penalized 10 percent of their annual profits if they cause a major environmental disaster. We'll just give an angry speech, and they'll get the message.
No one wants the health care industry to be harmed by having to be competitive or provide better service to attract and retain customers. We'll just pretend to be harsh with them, then send them millions of new customers under penalty of a fine if they don't buy health insurance.
Americans are stupid. Americans are idiots. Americans are sheep that we keep allowing this abuse--this terrorism--to continue.
When is America going to wake up and see reality for what it really is? This isn't a right or left issue, it's a right or wrong issue. And what is happening in America today is just WRONG.

You are shopping yourselves out of a job.
Some facts about Walmart:
Walmart has received over $1.2 billion in taxpayer subsidies and counting.
Walmart initially creates jobs when it opens new stores, but after an initial boost, studies show a net loss of jobs and an erosion of the better jobs in the area
David Neumark, an economist at the University of California, Irvine, counted a net loss of 150 jobs after a Wal-Mart opened. Wal-Mart didn't create jobs; it destroyed them. For every person who got a job at Wal-Mart, 1.4 other retail workers lost theirs.
Wal-Mart has an effect on manufacturing jobs. Its cost-cutting makes it a leader in moving production overseas. The Economic Policy Institute, a nonprofit Washington, D.C., think tank interested in protecting middle- and low-income Americans, estimated the loss at 77 U.S. manufacturing jobs for every Wal-Mart.
As the competitive leader in the retail market, Wal-Mart sets the tone; studies have shown that when Wal-Mart comes to town, the wages of workers at other businesses also drop. Research out of the University of California, Berkeley, found in 2007 that total wages in a given county decline by 1.5% for each Wal-Mart that opens.
When an economist crunched the numbers, he traced a loss of 200,000 U.S. manufacturing jobs to China just by looking at Wal-Mart's additional sales for the six years ending in 2006. That's 33,333 jobs per year, or 641 every week.
Those numbers don't include the hundreds of thousands of jobs already lost to meet existing sales, he said. Nor do they take into account U.S. manufacturing jobs that suppliers to Wal-Mart moved to other countries, such as Mexico, Vietnam, Thailand and India.
"Total job displacement may be two or three times as high as what I estimated there," Scott (the economist) said. "The question is who is going to make the goods that go in those shelves, and that's what's being overlooked and hidden in the PR statements from companies like Wal-Mart."
Americans truly are shopping themselves out of jobs, and they don't see it at all. They think they're saving money, and they can't afford to shop anywhere else. In reality, you can't afford to shop at Walmart.

I realize we don't see eye to eye on a lot of things. As a Democrat, I believe all Americans should be treated equally, despite their gender, color of their skin, religious beliefs, or place in society. And my take on the Constitution and Bill of Rights is that our founding fathers felt the same way.
The Republican Party presents itself as the party of Christianity, conservatism, family values, smaller government, lower taxes, and high morals. Yet I have to question if those things are truly the focus of today's Republican Party.
Those of you who represent yourselves and consider yourselves to be Christians certainly must feel deep in your soul that what's been going on in Iraq is wrong. Jesus would not condone the death and destruction the war in Iraq has wrought on mankind. And now that there's undeniable proof that Saddam Hussein wasn't involved with the attacks on September 11, 2001, wasn't harboring terrorists, wasn't hiding weapons of mass destruction, and wasn't actually a threat to the United States or its people, it must sicken you when you hear of the people killed or permanently injured. You must weep for the families who have been ripped apart by this war, both here and abroad.
Yet I hear nothing from you. Why is that? Would Jesus want you to keep your mouth shut and allow this death and destruction to continue? As Christians, surely you know that we are all created equal and that the Iraqi people have as much right in the eyes of God to live as you or I do. Would Jesus want you to stand by and allow someone to be tortured and do nothing? You know and I know that he wouldn't, so why are you allowing this to continue?
You do realize that YOU will have to answer for this when the time comes, don't you?
As a conservative, it must infuriate you to see the amount of money being spent on this war. Think of what we could do with that money over here. We need to have bridges repaired, the electrical grid needs to be updated, our ports need modernizing, highways need resurfacing. Yet there's no money for these things because it's all going overseas. And while our economy here at home is failing, Iraq has a surplus, thanks to our tax dollars flowing into that country. The deficit is higher than ever before, and I know you realize that it will have to be paid off at some point.
Your sensibilities must be bruised knowing we are borrowing money from China, a communist country. Communism certainly is not a Republican value, yet we are financing a war on money borrowed from that country. Does this not enrage you? Are you not paying attention, or are you just worn out at this point?
You must know that our government is bigger, more wasteful, and less efficient than ever before. How do you sleep knowing the elected representatives you've supported who promised smaller government have actually created a bigger mess? And they're using your tax dollars to do it with. Do you find this offensive? It certainly seems like you should.
And what about honesty in government? You were all so enraged when Bill Clinton was caught lying about his affair with Monica Lewinski, yet you seem to have become immune to the lies of George Bush. Surely your values don't allow you to discriminate against someone just because of their political affiliation. After all, doesn't the Bible command that all are created EQUAL?
Your Republican President, George W. Bush, lied to you, me, Congress, the United Nations, and the rest of the world in order to start a war with Iraq. Isn't lying also a violation of the Ten Commandments? Commandments being things that you cannot take exception to, at least in my book. So how is it that you've been silent all these years?
But there's more, too. The outing of a covert CIA agent for political purposes. George Bush acted like he knew nothing about it, but we now know that he did. He lied to cover up his actions. And he lied about wiretapping, which was a violation of the law. He was spying on Americans, and not just Americans talking to contacts overseas, but many calls were within the boundaries of our own country.
I know how you feel about homosexuality. But since all are created equal, and you've been ordered to do unto others as you would have others do unto you, how can you discriminate against gay people? You have the right to marry, and receive all of the benefits that go with that. Yet somehow if gay people are allowed to marry also, it will destroy the sanctity of your marriage? That defies all logic. The most destructive event that impacts marriage in this country is DIVORCE. If you truly want to protect the sanctity of marriage, you don't exclude people from marrying, you prevent them from terminating it. Does this not seem a bit hypocritical? Does this not seem like you're judging others, which is something the Bible tells us to not do. Only God can judge. Yet you seem to feel it's OK in this instance.
And how about your current candidates for the top offices in the nation? How about their family values? John McCain divorced his first wife. In fact, he abandoned her and his family. He had an affair with Cindy while he was still married. Does this not damage the sanctity of marriage? Sarah Palin has had an affair with her husband's business partner. Where are the family values you say you cherish so highly?
Lately, I've heard shouts of anger from people who profess to be Republicans. They've shouted that Barack Obama should be killed. They've shouted that he's a terrorist. I have to wonder about that all are created equal thing. And the thou shalt not kill thing. Would Jesus be happy to know that you stand by silently while these things happen? Is that what he/she would do if present on Earth today?
I feel that many Republicans today have compromised their values, morals, ethics, and religion by keeping quiet. Your silence indicates your approval by default. Surely if these things offended your sensibilities you would cry out as you do when gay marriage comes up.
So by your silence, the rest of us can only gather that you indeed condone the lies, the death, the destruction, and all of the other things that your religion, values, and ethics surely tell you are wrong. How do you come to terms with yourselves? Surely not all of you are oblivious to these things that are happening in the world today, and have been happening for many years now.
What has happened to the Republican Party? It seems to me that anyone with a realistic view of the world today, who still maintains their high values and beliefs would be furious over what is happening. And yet the world hears...nothing...from you.
Are you paying attention, Republicans? Is this really the direction you want to take? I wonder because it certainly seems to go against everything you supposedly believe in. And your silence says more than a million words.

You have been reluctant to investigate the crimes of the Bush Administration, despite demands from the American people that you do so. You have either been very neglectful of your responsibilities, or complicit in the crimes committed.
Now we know that George Bush lied to all of us regarding his involvement in the outing of Valerie Plame, an undercover, COVERT CIA agent whose job was to learn who did and who did not have nuclear weapons. And this outing happened during a time of war.
The pieces of the puzzle are beginning to fit together now, Nancy. Bush let Scooter take the fall for himself and others, with the assurance to Scooter that he would not serve time in prison. Bush is covering up his own crimes.
Is this enough, Nancy? Is this enough to get you off your butt and do your job? Your approval ratings are lower than the criminal in the White House. Will this be the final straw? If not, what is it going to take? Another illegal war based on lies? They are already making moves in that direction.
It's time for you to act now, Nancy. Impeachment must be put on the table for Thanksgiving. You are making it more difficult for Dems going into 2008 by your inaction. Instead of insuring a Dem sweep, you are making it easier for the GOP to frame the Dems as "do nothing" because you aren't doing anything.
So, do something - like your job - and get out a big platter for impeachment. It will be a nice Thanksgiving gift to the American people.

Yep, I actually had someone say this to me.
I told them in no uncertain terms that we were all paying for those tax cuts dearly. At the gas pump. In the grocery store. When we go to the doctor, buy prescription drugs, or pay our utility bills.
I also told them the only ones who aren't feeling the pinch are the wealthy, who are receiving a disproportionate tax cut, compared to their earnings, and they are the only group who likely wouldn't feel the pinch of a tax increase at all.
Then I flat out told him that I was sick of stupid idiots like him defending a sinking ship. I told him if he and others like him were standing on the deck of the Titanic with water up to their knees, they'd likely say the ship wasn't sinking, and insist that the band continues to play and wonder where their drink order is.
And then I said that I was sick of people like him walking around pretending to be righteous and wearing blinders, and that if he'd turn off Rush and Bill and Sean for a change, and go find sources for REAL NEWS without the spin, he might learn a few things about the lies he's been fed all along.
I told him he disgusted me, and that I could no longer be his friend because he lacked the ethics, morals, and values that I find important in my life. And then I told him despite what he may believe, those values are sorely lacking in the Republican Party.
I told him Bush's view on supporting the troops was sending them off to their deaths based on lies, and then ignoring their health care issues when they returned missing body parts.
I told him the GOP's conservative values have placed the health of America's children secondary to military contracts in Iraq, again, a war BASED ON LIES.
I told him the GOP's fiscal policies have resulted in the highest deficit EVER, and the MOST WASTEFUL GOVERNMENT EVER.
And as for Bush being a good Christian man, I asked him to consider how a good Christian man could send these young men and women off to die without proper protection, a plan, or a valid reason to fight a war.
I concluded by telling him that if he continues to support these people, I cannot and will not be his friend because I find these people, who are corrupt liars and murderers, and the people who enable them to do these things by their support, offensive to the human race, and not worth the time of day.
As I walked off, he just stood there with his mouth open. Literally.
I HAVE HAD ENOUGH! WAKE UP, IDIOTS!! The rest of us have to suffer for your laziness and ignorance!!!

It will be labeled the Roman Holiday in America Period. Where laws are broken by government, where big business called all the shots and got so greedy that it would stop at nothing to get what it wanted, and when corruption in government was greater than at any other period in our nation's history.
And all the while, a weak Congress and right leaning Judicial Branch sat with their hands under their legs.
While all this was going on, America slept. Americans were too interested in buying foreign cars, rushing for cheap foreign crap at Wal-Mart, refinancing their homes to buy that new Suburban, getting cash advances from credit cards to fuel their desire to buy, buy, buy. And they were so in love with American Idol they let the crooks in Washington take their rights and liberties away from them without complaint.
Yes, I'm certain our ancestors who fought for this country, and gave their lives so we could enjoy freedom, are very unhappy with us right now. We've pissed it all away. Americans have become a very selfish people, most concerned only with themselves, and few willing to do anything about the problems until they are personally impacted by them.
Pretty pathetic. Is it any wonder things in America are the way they are today?

You started a war based on lies so your oil company and big corporate cronies could become multi-billionaires.
You're responsible for the deaths of over 3,500 of our brave and innocent troops, and no one knows for sure how many innocent Iraqis, but the number is surely in the hundreds of thousands.
You've spent billions of dollars on your war in Iraq, while you've allowed things here at home to turn to shit. The tax paying citizens of this country don't have access to decent health care, we don't have safe food, the credit card companies and banks can charge us exorbitant fees, gas costs have gone up steadily since you took office, our environment is failing, and the education our kids get is suffering due to budget cuts.
You've divided the country like no other time in our history, except for the Civil War.
You have created a Charles Manson-like cult with your followers. They're the ones who still profess what a brave man you are, tell everyone how lucky we are to have such a good Christian in the White House, and drive around with your "W" stickers plastered on their cars. Of course, membership in this cult does nothing at all for them, which is the beauty of your plan: they get nothing in return for their adoration and devotion. Just a lousy sticker.
You've spent billions and killed thousands of troops in your war on terror. And yet, four years later, our enemy is stronger than ever. Great job, George! You've bankrupted us, killed us, and ruined our reputation and credibility in the world, and strengthened our enemy in the process! Only you could f*ck things up so bad.
But, that's the way you want it, isn't it? You want to destroy our government, shred our Constitution, tax us but not represent us, and have unwavering support from the people.
America, however, is stronger than you think it is. It's stronger than you and your cronies. Someday, America is going to realize what you're taking away from us, and despite your control over the corporate media, despite your cult status, despite all your well planned crimes, despite all the "W" stickers, you are going to go down. And your cronies will go down with you.
America will survive because it is good by design. You are not. You are evil. You lie, steal, kill, torture, and tell us it's all for our own good. Good overcomes evil. It always does, eventually. America is slowly waking up, and we are not happy with what we're seeing.
Your days in the sun are numbered, little man. If America is half the country it's been in the past, justice will force you to pay for your dirty deeds.

That George Bush's word is not to be believed? You actually came this far thinking the man could be trusted?
And you're the Speaker of the House. Amazing you were able to achieve so much, all the while being so oblivious to the world around you.
Why don't you take this new revelation of yours and do something about it? Like, um...oh let's see...put IMPEACHMENT ON THE TABLE. That would be a good place to start.

How do you come to terms in your own minds the hypocrisy of these pro-life, pro-war, pro-death penalty politicians?
Your Bible specifically states that while on Earth, mankind is not to judge others, kill others, or condemn others. Yet this is exactly what is happening.
How can you support people and policies that cause so much pain and agony? A picture says a thousand words, and this is what your support of the Republican Party is doing:
Why do you hate this woman so much? What has she done to you that you feel she deserves this much pain and agony?
Take a look in the mirror - you are responsible for this woman's pain.
May your God forgive you for your sins.

Because he's a child that has never been forced to grow up and be an adult. A child who has been sheltered, protected, and forgiven because of his privileged status of being born into a powerful and corrupt family.
A child who ran from his responsibility to serve his country, despite having every exception and consideration made for him to start with.
A child who couldn't resist the attraction of drugs and alcohol, and didn't have the courage or inner strength to overcome his addictions, because he never had to before.
A child who treats others as if they are beneath him. And he honestly, truly believes he is superior to others, regardless of their intellect or achievements on their own, without help from people in power.
A child who was able to botch his way through a Presidential campaign - twice - and still win because it was given to him.
A child who has staged public relations stunts from the very moment he took office, including, very possibly, the biggest one of all: 9/11.
So it really comes as no surprise that he would play games with a visiting foreign dignitary, because playing games is what he does best and is normal behavior for him.
Life is just a big game to George Bush, and the American people and troops are just pieces on the game board. Pieces to be shoved around at the spin of the dice, at a whim, or hurled across the room in a fit of anger because things aren't going his way.
I'm ready for this game to end. How about the rest of you?

Yesterday, George W. Bush turned his back on America and our troops after announcing he had vetoed the emergency funding bill.
How much more will we tolerate, America?
The man has lied to us, spied on us, raided our treasury, allowed our brave troops to fight a war based on lies and without proper equipment or a plan for success, outed a COVERT CIA agent who was specifically working on nuclear proliferation, then lied about that too.
He and his Vice President continue to tell us that Iraq = 9/11, even though we should all know by now that simply isn't true. It's a lie.
We had the worst terrorist attack in our country's history due to the inaction of this administration in the months prior to the attack. All warnings were ignored.
We had one of the worst natural disasters with Hurricane Katrina, and this administration allowed citizens to die and float in the streets of New Orleans, being eaten by rats. And they did...nothing. They promised they'd fix the problem, and it still isn't fixed. Money and aid donated by other countries was not accepted.
The man has turned his back on America. He is willing to allow others to die for his lie—for his war—that has made his wealthy friends even wealthier, and even though he knows the majority of the American people want the war to end, and our troops brought home, he ignores our wishes by turning his back on us and walking away.
It is time for us to turn our backs on this man. And we can all start by swamping Nancy Pelosi's office with calls for impeachment. It will be hard for her to continue to ignore us if she's getting thousands of calls every day from Americans demanding that the impeachment process is started.
CALL NOW: (202) 225-0100. Not one more dead soldier, not one more dollar for this war based on lies. IMPEACH!

1. Why was nothing done about the August 2001 memo which advised terrorists were determined to strike America using commercial jets?
2. Why did you not react immediately when advised America was under attack on September 11, 2001? (I would make him wait 7 minutes to answer, with the room in silence, to emphasize the amount of time he sat there and did nothing.)
3. Why did WTC 7 collapse?
4. How can you profess to be a Christian man, who believes in The Bible, when you don't live your life in accordance with The Bible?
5. Are you a sinner?
6. Have you ever been stopped for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol?
7. Why are you sacrificing the health, security and well being of the American people for the war in Iraq?
8. Why are so many children being left behind under your "No Child Left Behind" Act?
9. Why do you support Gonzalez when his job is obviously over his head? (If he isn't a corrupt liar, he's not properly overseeing his department.)
10. Did you know that an event was going to happen on 9/11 before it happened?
11. Have you ever fathered a child outside of marriage? Was/were those pregnancies aborted?
12. You criticised Bill Clinton when he was President about his lack of action against high gas prices, yet you have done little to control gas prices during your terms in office. Gas was $1.46 when you took office. Why haven't you done anything about it?
13. Why do you think people view you as arrogant?
14. Why do you think people view you as not trustworthy?
15. How involved were you in the outing of Covert CIA Agent Valerie Plame?
16. How involved were you in the termination of the U.S. Attorneys?
17. Despite your claim that you would investigate, why was no internal White House investigation done in the outing of Valerie Plame?
18. What is your real plan to repair/restore New Orleans?
19. Did you plot to manipulate information given to Congress and the American people to start the war in Iraq?
20. Have you consumed an alcoholic beverage or any prescription or otherwise drugs in the last 48 hours? If so, how much and exactly what were they.

YOU work for US. YOU are in office because WE voted to put you there. So why then do you have such a great health care benefit and we don't? You expect us to somehow deal with Medicare and what little is still left of Social Security, while you have a program that is second to none.
YOU expect US to work for minimum wage, which is not a living wage in any sense of interpretation, while you give yourselves raises year after year after year. And for what? A job well done? When the people you are working for are largely barely making it, your job performance rating should not justify big raises for yourselves.
YOU search everyone entering your place of work to make sure they don't have hand guns, to protect yourselves from crime, yet we are expected to be comfortable facing strangers on the streets and in our places of work who have concealed weapons, whether they are a responsible person or not.
It's time for the double standards to end. Stop the hypocrisy. If it isn't good enough for you, it isn't good enough for the American people. Stop judging others by different standards than you hold for yourselves.

Anne Arundel County police said they are looking for a robber who struck at a convenience store in Glen Burnie.
It happened at 7-Eleven store on the 1600 block Furnace Branch Road West at 3:27 p.m. Thursday.
Police said a store employee told them that a man entered the store and announced a robbery, implying he had a weapon, but did not display one.
The robber took an undetermined amount of cash and fled the store on foot across Baltimore and Annapolis Boulevard.
Authorities said several officers, police K-9 and aviation units searched the area, but did not find the man.
The robber is described as a white man, about 6 feet tall, clean shaven, thin build, black baseball hat, white long-sleeve T-shirt, blue and white plaid shorts, and black tennis shoes.

I love this flower. To be so beautiful and such little trouble. I only planted 2 plants this year and will plant many more next year if I can find them. The tag that came with it does not indicate whether it is a perrional or an annual.

Plant Needs
Use in combinations, window boxes and landscaping.
Self-cleaning, no dead-heading necessary.
Angelonia are heat-loving plants that will grow most vigorously and bloom best when the heat is on. They are plants best planted in mid-spring or later, since they won't really grow until the temperatures warm up. Angelonia will tolerate wet feet and a fair amount of drought. The plants are easy care with no deadheading needed. A bit of fertilizer or some compost in a garden bed is usually all that is needed for these plants to thrive. Due to their heat-loving nature they are one of the plants that can be planted even during the heat of mid-summer.
Don't forget that Angelface are great long lasting cut flowers with a slight grape soda fragrance. Try some in a flower arrangement this year and see for yourself!
An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.
There's nothing like a good haircut to make a girl feel like a million bucks. It's so true it should be Newton's Fourth Law. But I have no idea why it feels twice as thick a week later. For example, cut some of my 18-24 inch tall upright stems covered with snapdragon-y blue-purplish flowers and guess what? In a few days I'll look every bit as bushy as before. So sharpen up those pruners, baby. I look terrific in a vase. You won't see me going all floppy and falling apart in fifteen minutes, no way. I'll keep my looks for 10 days+. Change the water every other day and it could be 10++.
Container, bed, planter or border: I'll stay my usual fabulous self even in the South and Midwest's notorious heat and humidity. By August when most plants look deep fried, I look fresh as an, um, Angelonia. That's because I'm a Proven Winners hybrid - a much improved version of an old-fashioned Angelonia (a.k.a. summer snapdragon). Drought tolerant. Full sun. Annual except in zones 10 - 11. No deadheading. Beautiful, tough and vigorous from spring until the first hard frost. Sounds like a Fifth Law to me.

These looked so beautiful at the nurseryin the spring, but they did not thrive despite my adding improved soil at the time of planting and fertilzer several times during the season. They got regular watering also. They were in a bed that gets sun 75% of the day.
They did not bush out despite dead heading and stayed spindly with little rebloom.
Very disappointing, will not buy again.JeanPawleys IslandSouth CarolinaUnited States2 years ago

Jilted husband saws all wife's things in half
The Local · 19 Jun 2015, 12:25
Published: 19 Jun 2015 12:25 GMT+02:00
- 'Sex Atlas' reveals Germany's hottest states (16 Jun 15)
- Student is worst TV quiz contestant in 15 years (16 Jun 15)
- German traffic light stays red for 28 years (15 Jun 15)
Opening with the message "Thanks for 12 'nice' years Laura," and then "You have really earned your half", the mystery jilted lover documented the surprisingly precise process of sawing various objects in half in a video titled "for Laura".
His performance had had over 1 million views on YouTube as of June 19th.
The closing message means "Good luck to my successor!!!!!!"
The Metro managed to track down the man himself, Martin, who told the British newspaper "My wife left me after 12 years of marriage to be with a friend."
"I was really angry, so cut up everything and sent her half. I put the rest on eBay as a joke and a message for Laura. Now it's everywhere on the internet, it's crazy," he said.
Sawing all your joint possessions in half, sending your ex a collection of chopped up objects, and flogging the rest on the internet is certainly at the extreme end of the spectrum of breakup reactions, but he at least might make some cash out of it.
A list of the items can be viewed here on his Ebay account. Unsurprisingly the prices have been slashed along with the objects themselves.
First up is half a bike, which is going for a decent €12,50, especially with the front brakes in perfect condition. Perhaps it could be converted into a unicycle?
Next is half of a rather old looking Macbook Pro. The asking price of €81 is rather cheeky, but then some people actually do love Apple products that much. Half an iPhone is also up for grabs for €78.
The innocent victim of the messy breakup. At €56 this must have extra sentimental value.
This half a sofa comes in at an absolute steal at €5.50. Stick an extra couple of legs on it, and you have yourself a shabby-chic armchair.
Another absolute bargain at €3.50, this halved marriage bed would be perfect for any flat where extra space is a luxury.
Other items included half a TV, four halves of chairs, half a phone, half a wardrobe, and half an R.E.M record. The response on Ebay has actually been pretty positive, with over 30 bids for the car and the teddy bear.

Pain As A Symptom
Over half of all pleural mesothelioma patients have pain in the lower, back or sides of the chest. Sufferers of peritoneal mesothelioma may also experience pain in the abdominal area. Pericardial mesothelioma patients often have chest pain, heart palpitations, shortness of breath, and constant and acute coughing. Mesothelioma patient pain typically increases over time and can be acute in many cases, requiring prescription narcotics to manage. It is important that patients let their physicians know about the pain they are feeling. Support from a medical team can lessen those symptoms by use of these medications:
- Mild pain is typically treated with over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) containing ibuprofen, aspirin, naproxen or acetaminophen.
- Moderate pain often involves the use of opioid medications that are sometimes used in combination with NSAIDs. Opioid products are hydrocodone, codeine, methadone or oxycodone.
- Severe pain is often experienced following surgery and is typically managed through "patient-controlled analgesia" whereby the patient can manage the dosage of the painkiller. Most often this is a morphine drip. Higher doses of the moderate pain relievers may be used or other drugs can be prescribed including fentanyl and hydromorphone.

Prisoner of War #1 - IconMale
Models: Colt Rivers and Billy Santoro
Film: Prisoner of War
Studio: Icon Male
Captain Billy is disciplining Private Colt for faking sick to get out of training. He orders Colt Rivers to disrobe so that he can see exactly how healthy Private Rivers is. He checks his subordinate's underwear and it's clean, but to thoroughly check he has to examine everywhere. Private Rivers is commanded to bend over and spread his cheeks, exposing his perky ass. Captain Santoro tells the private that if he's going to act like a little bitch, he's going to get treated like one, and slides his dick into his open hole. Santoro pins Rivers down on the army cot and fucks him hard as punishment for his laziness. Santoro can't get enough of Rivers' ass, pounding it and licking it until both soldiers are ready to burst. Rivers finishes on himself and feeds Santoro his cum from his mouth, and Santoro finishes on his own dick to have Rivers lick it clean.

Wouldn't it be delicious if Mrs. Olsen was messing with Frazz?
Don't remonstrate semantics with me, ya snot nosed little punk.
Only if you use them gratuitously.
Is it just me, or has Mrs Olsen's hair got darker? I seem to remember her having a lighter shade of grey, but looking through (what remains of) the archives, it's always been this shade…
Oh, to be sure, I was given grief for using fancy words 30 years ago.
I wish they hadn't obliterated all the archives from comics.com strips. It's sort of ridiculous. Questions like that can't be answered anymore.
I have an archive of my own… my favorite strips. Her hair colour tends to vary from strip to strip. It IS darker now than in most older strips I have. That being said, she isn't above using a bit o' the chemical and a matching false bun
I am creating a "Take a Break" area in my summer editing class, and adding Frazz strips is the centerpiece.
@Tim, @HyperShock: According to past comics, Mrs. Olsen wears wigs, so maybe she switches them from time to time?
tower, WTF? I don't know where you get your information, but it didn't come from anyone who has been in a school. "Yup, dem teechers sure do am hatin' dem fancy werds…".

Xbox One
Do you think polls would be more positive for Xbox One if one could surf the web
- Topic Archived
For free without having a gold subscription on their Xbox? It seems only a 3rd of Xbox 360 owners actually subscribe to gold so that cuts a lot of people out of voting as opposed to PS3 gamers who can surf the internet for free. Maybe that's why the polls are so biased.

Nope, I think that E3's effect is going to linger for the entire lifespam of the Xbone, where half of it's casual fans stopped caring when they announced "DRM Box 180".
They're redeeming themselves, but they havent fired enough random execs to sell well yet.

Actually, the vast majority of gamers (including Playstation and Xbox fans) don't care about internet polls at all.

I'm not so sure. Some people seem to be using the polls to influence which console they'll buy next month. Some even made posts about it, saying that they might not buy X1 because of the unpopularity in the polls. I would THINK you're right, but it seems like you're not.

I'm a big fan of the Xbox 360 and I have an Xbox One preordered but all these polls showing that the community dislikes the Xbox makes me think that I should be a Nintendo Box because I don't know why but polls are like pretty important yknow

Well, I believe the majority of gamers are not like us here on GameFAQs. We are a very thinslice of the hardcore sector-- not only do we regularly visit a message board, but we participate in disucssions, vote in polls, look up news about all the latest games, etc... I'm sure in the grand scheme of all gamers who buy and enjoy console games, we are in the vast minority.
Most gamers don't go hang out on Reddit or GameFAQs and argue on boards. Most people will probably just surf around their favorite sites and get news tangentially, or see ads in different places. Or some people probably just know there's a PS4 and X1 coming out later this year and are eagerly anticipating their arrival without participating in the hatestorm of this board.
Look at the highest poll participation GameFAQs ever had for the character contests. Even with outside influence voting in the poll, I don't think it ever peaked over 300k votes. And only a fraction of that likely visits this board. Even those internet polls people participate in, you're usually looking at about 1 million people voting if you're lucky. In the grand scheme of 78+ 360s/PS3s sold, does it even really matter?
I'm not saying that certain people don't enjoy internet polls. Of course they do, and it's a good way to see reaction among the hardcore fans. But what I meant to say in my post is there is a sea of gamers out there who don't even give a passing glance at the whole internet-poll and message board gaming-culture.

this site is like high school
there's always a "flavor of the month"
something becomes popular with a select group and everyone else feels the need to follow the herd
then after a while it fades out and something else becomes popular then whatever was previously popular becomes generally disliked by the masses
I play with dolls: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y153/BeefEaster/003_zps64d8bdd3.jpg
The difference would be that we would have more topics about Microsoft spying on us when we use our One's to surf porn.
GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC

From primitive man's cowrie shells to the electronic cash card, from the markets of Timbuktu to the New York Stock Exchange, The History of Money explores how money and the myriad forms of exchange have affected humanity, and how they will continue to shape all aspects of our lives--economic, political, and personal.
Listen to An Interview with Author Jack Weatherford.
©1998 Jack Weatherford (P)2010 Audible, Inc.
A bit dry and historical, but none the less a fascinating history. A good reflection as to the relationship of money, the world economy and our society.
"Very interesting and thought provoking"
It was highly enjoyable because it gave me a greater understanding of the way the world works. He gave a story of a certain eb and flow of history that makes the listener more knowledgeable than before.
Yes, this is a non-fiction book but his tone of voice made it clear when he was switching topics.
I would want to, theoretically but that is not very realistic.
I enjoy, epic and modern fantasy, science fiction, business, historical mystery, and technology books. Fav. series: Game of Thrones, Vampire Earth, Dresden, Iron Druid, Falco mysteries, Chris Anderson titles, Peaceful Warrior, and the Way of Kings (and more, of course;)
"Interesting and informative!"
This book is provides an interesting history of the evolution of currency and the effects of money-use on the civilizations that used them. The beginning was a bit slow and felt like an extended historical introduction (I actually stopped listening for a while before coming back to the book), but once I got past the first section, the story was very engaging and produced many interesting facts, histories, and a new perspective on modern day finance. 4 out of 5 due to the slow start, but very good for someone curious to know more about the basics of money history and some economics.
"Fascinating and instructive"
This book was like auditing a colourful lecture series. A great learning experience ... if only I had taken notes!
"Thorough History"
Very thorough history of the evolution of money
Yes. It would be too detailed for some.
"Not much history"
There was a little history, but not much that many of us don't already know. There were some illuminating history concerning slavery, the Aztecs in particular. The evolution from barter to binary bit exchange is of value to someone with no knowledge of the subject.
I anticipated that the book would be about how money has evolved into something new. And indeed the book brings you right up to the current evolutionary stage, says we're on the brink of something big, and stops. I had hoped for a little more insight into the new world order. Instead I got to read a cursory history of how we got here. Mixed in is a lot of soap boxing about how money is the driving force of civilization and all that is good.
"A refreshing perspective"
An anthropologist's view on money was very refreshing. We always think of money from the economist's perspective which can at times be a little dry. The author gives just the right mix of interesting tid bits on money and a constant theme to tie the book together...that while money has greatly advanced society, history repeats over and over the folly of too much money creation.
The book was well read so that it is easy to follow even at 3 times speed.
"Very Interesting"
Very interesting book spanning the dawn of civilization to the modern age, revealing the effect money had on shaping civilization. Highly recommended for anyone interested in history or why the current global economy is how it is today.
"Interesting subject, barley OK book"
things are not as simple as presented, and are not all from one point of view.
the "decimal money" did not allow chemistry to develop periodic table...
Qublai Han was not chinese, and paper money was part of a very dramatic changes the Mongols lead the world for, not a thing of its own. reading Gingis Han explains it excellent.
"A bad diatribe on the gold standard"
This book has absolutely no economic theory on the evolution of money and how it affects society. Rather, it is a thinly veiled political statement calling for the restoration of the gold standard. Now, that would normally be fine, but the author offers absolutely no credible debate on the pros and cons of his position. This book is full of strawmen, and the author jumps around in time with no thought to cause or effect. For example, he claims that Augustus' reckless spending near 0 B.C. caused the fall of the roman republic, 700 years later!. Do not expect this book be mentally stimulating.

Inner Security
Cancer Daily Horoscope
You could be sensible and grounded when handling your personal affairs today. Having such practical feelings might be due to your need to be more realistic about life and what you need to do to take care of yourself. It may seem that if you are in control of your affairs, you might feel more secure and solid. Perhaps recognizing that your external security comes from what you have within can help you feel even more grounded. While organizing and structuring your life today, you might want to reflect upon what you possess in terms of qualities and talents that contribute to your sense of security. Knowing that you will always have gifts that can never be taken away from you can not only make you feel more certain about your life situation but may also give you a greater feeling of well-being.
Being grounded in our external lives is due to our sense of internal centeredness. When we feel insecure in our lives it is usually because we either don't have faith in ourselves and the universe or because we fear that what we have will be taken away without any warning. Once we understand that security comes from our views, however, we can work to bolster our feelings of solidity by working on ourselves and on changing these views to more positively reflect everything that we have rather than focus on what we lack. By feeling secure in yourself today, the practical aspects of your life will easily fall into place.

|Courses : A Year of Prayers
Prayer is at the core of spiritual life. Even when circumstances prevent you from being able to do more elaborate forms of spiritual practice, even when you are broken down and depressed and on the verge of being hopeless or overwhelmed by the pain and tragedy of the world, you can always pray. Being able to pray brings deep peace and relief. Think of Jesus in Gethsemane and how in those terrible hours all he could do was to pray. And think of our increasingly dramatic time, how many of us find it hard to meditate or to do complicated visualizations or walking meditations and how even in stressful situations- (and they are going to get more frequent) we can still and always... pray.
So what is prayer? The great English poet George Herbert described prayer as "something understood". What is understood in prayer is that we are always linked to the divine presence inside us and around us- directly, nakedly, beyond concept or dogma or even the words that we are using. And it is this connection, this "something understood" that opens for us a door into direct empowerment from the divine in the core of life.
Long and gorgeous prayers are rich and take time to absorb. Through this course, you will be able to integrate potent, short prayers into your daily practice. Passionate and absolutely to the point, these prayers will help you focus your whole being. There is only one divine speaking to us in beautiful, different voices through all the great mystics, teachers and mystical traditions. The world is now entering an era of universal mysticism, and collected here in this course are 365 short prayers taken from all the major religions and shamanic revelations.
May this journey into the divine reveal to you your own inner divine and so bring you deeper and deeper into the mystery of the eternal presence. As Rumi wrote, prayer is joy, strength, love, endurance and power. May all of these flower in you.
Andrew Harvey is an internationally renowned religious scholar, writer, and teacher, and the author of over 30 books, including the critically acclaimed Way of Passion: A Celebration of Rumi, as well as The Hope: A Guide to Sacred Activism, Journey to Ladakh, The Return of the Mother, Son of Man, and The Direct Path: Creating a Journey to the Divine Using the World's Mystical Traditions. He is also coauthor of the best-selling The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. His work has been honored with the Benjamin Franklin Award and the Mind Body Spirit Award (both for Mary's Vineyard: Daily Readings, Meditations, and Revelations, with photographs by Eryk Hanut), and the Christmas Humphries Award for A Journey in Ladakh. Born in south India in 1952, Harvey studied at Oxford University and became a Fellow of All Soul's College in 1973. He is Founding Director of the Institute for Sacred Activism.
Starting today, you will receive a new lesson every day for 365 days (total of 365 lessons). Each lesson is yours to keep and you'll be able to refer back to it whenever you want. And if you miss a lesson or are too busy to get to it that day, each lesson will conveniently remain in your account so you won't have to search for it when you're ready to get back to it.
Free Gift
