  • Oh boy! I still like Cain too. that 999 theory may just work if he can get someone to agree with him.

  • Cain doesn't follow the constitution .......He's against AMERICAN MUSLIMS building a Mosque in Murfreesboro Tn.

  • He is against Sharia Law MSM which is not in the Constitution.

  • We still have freedom of Religion........They interviewed some of these people on 60 minutes including women and they said that they don't believe in or practice Sharia Law....Not all Muslims follow Sharia Law and they happen to be a group of them that are peaceful law abiding American Citizens... That have been here for over 20 years and in that town not one has been arrested for a crime.

    Fear mongers tried to stop them from building and Cain said "I have your Back"

    The vast majority of Tennesseans believe strongly in our country's founding principles of religious freedom, and support the rights of all Murfreesboro residents to practice their faith without interrogation or persecution,"

  • MSM:

    I don't think that I could convince you of anything, but Sharia Law is part of their religion whether they practice it or not.

    Herman Cain was very clear that this was what he was against.

    I could cite some examples of a few other people who are not giving an inch on the freedom of religion, but it would only get your dander up a little more.

    60 Minutes is not the only TV show out there with what they consider the facts. Rattlesnakes are peaceful and law abiding too, if you don't bother them or cross their paths.

    Would you be as indignant if it was a Christian Church that was not going to be built?

  • Here's a link about Sharia Law. We have had Muslims living here in America for many many years.

    In fact when the twin towers came down there were muslims there helping at ground zero. I would not say they were the evil terrorists that hijacked our planes and flew them into the towers.

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/amy-sullivan/sharia-myth-america_b_876965.html

    I would be indignant if any American was not allowed to practice their religion on our soil.

  • God Bless You, MSM.

    I will never get my point across to you, so I am quitting now while I am ahead.

    I can still like someone without agreeing that with all of their opinions. So, I like Herman Cain.

  • Bazookaman,

    Before you throw Lamont into an epileptic fit of indignation, could you please explain what you meant by: "and they DEFINIELY couldn't play any "race cards" against Cain, who is blacker than Obama in EVERY respect...."

  • That's ok if you like Herman Cain, we can't always like the same people lol ! I kind of like Ron Paul, and John Huntsman just not completely sure about their views. And as being people I like all the Candidates, just not all the views they have.

    Since you mentioned the economy, what do you think about the latest Congressional Budget Report concerning the 2009 Stimulus Package?

  • K H GAl I would like to correct myself

    The people in Murfreesboro follow the sharia Law however When on 60 minutes they explained that korans can be wrote differently, they are not all alike. And those that live in that city don't stone women to death nor is it written in their koran. You cannot judge all Muslims because of the extremist's and terrorists.

    Cain is wrong joining in to stop them from building their Mosque..

    -- Posted by MsMarylin on Tue, Sep 13, 2011, at 1:45 PM
  • MsM:

    I still like Cain and he was right about the Sharia Law. We are to follow the laws of the land and you should research Sharia Law a little more, it doesn't just involve stoning women, which to me is bad enough in itself.

    I would hope that MR CAIN is not subjected to the racist comments and depictions this president has been subjected to.I would also hope that people would see them for what they are,unfortunatley some dont and that is the part that is really shamefull.

  • Cain will not get in because he will never get high enough in the polls unless he believes ALL Americans have the right to build a church and the Right to practice their Religion here on American Soil.

    Can anyone that watched the debate last night remember the question asked to Bachmann where she sang and sang and danced but never answered the question and then they went into a break? I'm trying to remember it but some how I can't remember the question

  • Thank You,

    That figure of $278,000 per job has been sharply disputed. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/07/05/white-house-disputes-study-saying-sti...

    The Stimulus was only supposed to be temporary, a "jumpstart" if you will: Though the benefits of the law have begun to dissipate 2 1/2 years later, the agency clearly says things would have been worse without it. Since the spending was temporary, the law's biggest impact was felt in 2010. At various points last year, the CBO estimated economic growth was boosted by 1.8% to 4.6%, employment boosted by 1.4 million to 3.6 milllion jobs, and unemployment lessened by 0.8 to 2 percentage points.

    Yes i did see the link in Drudge about the debt about to skyrocket. That link actually takes you to http://www.heritage.org/budgetchartbook/debt-and-deficits?gclid=CJicvsLAm6sCFRJX... a decidedly right wing "conservative" website. I personally don't put much stock in such partisan websites, either left or right.

    I'm no economist, so i'll leave the "expert" opinions to those that get paid to do it. I just wanted to get your take on the report, thanks again.

  • HewBet,

    I have tried to be respectful, but please do not include Joseph Smith in all of the other stuff, He was long dead when plural marriage was introduced. This was even decided in a court of law more than a 100 years ago.

    By the way, it was the Romans who fed the Christians to the Lions. Men have been barbaric for centuries, do we need to keep a score? If so, I am afraid that the Non-Christians would lose.

    You crossed a line with me which is pretty hard to do.

    If you knew some of the history that I do, you wouldn't have included his name with the other dreck.

    I am a little disappointed. I thought that we were friends.

    I am done with this blog. It is becoming a bloodbath of words.

  • Perry said it was a mistake he made about that vaccination and he was still hammered on. I felt sorry for him. Bachmann should of just let it go.

    Homer when will your boy be home for good? This has got to be pretty tough on you and your wife. I'm not looking forward to next year when my on goes over to Afghanistan

  • Herman Cains whole economic plan... http://www.hermancain.com/images/economicgrowth.pdf Herman Cain was the only one on the stage that answered the questions and gave solutions and didn't dance around avoiding the questions. The Fair Tax answer from Romney was incorrect also. The Fair Tax has 20 million dollars of independent research behind it. www.fairtax.org to read the information about it. HR25 and SR13 are the pieces of fair tax legislation that are on the table. BTW to those that aren't happy about the mosque issue. If there is a candidate that meets all your requirements then you better watch out because they are lying to you. So in this business of picking candidates you need to look for the one that best meets your standards. In this case 90% may be a win for you. As for those that say he can't be elected because of what ever reason may be right but that will only happen because it will be a self fulfilling prophecy. I think he has as much of chance if not more and 175K plus facebook friends think that also. Most people don't know him and Bazookaman may have not know about him till I mentioned him at the spaghetti feed for the debate team. I can't take credit but I like to think that I planted a seed LOL. The key to him winning and MSM is trying to defeat that by keeping him on the sidelines at the debates is for him to get name recognition. Once people hear what he has to say and see it come from his mouth and notice his love of this country and what he stands for a great percentage love him. So if you like him plant the seed per say every opportunity and get his name out there. As a disclaimer these are just my opinions. I like to say opinions are like armpits some smell good but most stink! LOL

  • Thank you for your input MtnHomer. The CBO report is the most current, the date of it was 31 Aug 11. As far as Solyndra is concerned, it was a failed investment. As you pointed out, it is only one company of the 42 projects in the Energy Department's $30 billion portfolio of clean energy loan guarantees. The other two bankruptcies you mentioned were companies that received no loan guarantees.

    The bigger question to me is why are some reveling so much in it's failure? They point at this company and see a failure on the part of the government, istead of what it is...another failure on the part of America to break the stranglehold that mideast oil, large oil companies and cheap foreign labor/products have on us.

    This is an American company that tried to compete with Chinese government subsidized companies on an emerging technology and failed. Not because of mismanagement, fraud, or any wrongdoing. But because we as a country can't see beyond our noses and explore alternative energy methods.

    Not long ago Americans scoffed at electric/hybrid cars, until the Japanese proved that the technology was viable and all of a sudden the big automakers jumped on board. At what point are we going to start investing in, and LEADING the world in these new technologies instead of just jumping on the bandwagon?

    This is not some "save the planet", "tree-hugger" issue. It's one of our longterm economic survival. We can either invest in these new technologies, or continue with our self destructive dependance on foreign oil and oil companies. When we do finally wake up and start to utilize these technologies we'll find that the rest of the world is so far ahead of us that we'll have no choice but to purchase the materials and technologies from them. Then we'll be right back in the same boat as we are now with foreign oil.

    Now, specifically about the Solyndra deal. Below you'll find a couple of links concerning the history of the deal. Take from it what you will, I'm neither endorsing nor condemning what happened. It was an investment that didn't pan out, hopefully the other 41 will.

  • HewBet.

    Apology accepted. Please note a historical fact that has been proven many times. NONE of Joseph Smith's family practiced polygamy. He had 4 sons who stayed in Missouri and joined the Regorganization when his Son Joseph Smith III took over the church when he became an adult in 1860.

    Thus, I belong to the RLDS Church. The LDS who moved to Utah did so after Joseph's death and by the leadership of Brighman Young.

    I have a heritiage on both sides and I am amazed and awed by my ancestor's great courage and strength.

    so there it is in a nutshell.

    -- Posted by KH Gal on Wed, Sep 14, 2011, at 1:34 PM
  • KH Gal, Many thanks for the history lesson I just got by searching for RLDS. As you know I'm an advocate for some of the teachings of the LDS when it comes to aid and assistance. I would imagine the RLDS teaches many of the same concepts. Wiping and polishing pews taught me a great deal of self respect. No task is insignificant when it comes to building self respect.

  • Life is good when you can make friends without even meeting them face-to-face.

    What makes our country great is the wonderful minds that try to work together and come to consensus.

    And what really makes my heart happy is that I have had the privilege of sharing things with you.

    I may live in Missouri, I feel as though that is where I am supposed to be. However, the Idaho Girl has a special place in my heart for the traditions that I grew up with.

    What a blessing this has been for me. You have all helped me grow as a person.

  • Wind power and solar power are both a government sham. Neither are cost effective and a waste of our money. If the public wanted them we would have them without those in DC taking our money and spending it where they can give money to their friends. Congress has a 12 percent favorable aprroval rate and they are wasting our money. Stop spending and lower taxes. Get out of the way DC and things will get better.

    Joe McGinnis admitted that no one would talk to him about her or her family. How would you like someone stalking you every day for months? Which he did sitting on his porch with binoculars trained on their house.

    So naturally, he needed to make something up so that he could sell the book.

    What a hateful thing to do to a family.

    -- Posted by KH Gal on Thu, Sep 15, 2011, at 2:04 PM
  • If its made up she can file a lawsuit against him.

    I am sure he has done his research, this isn't the first book he has written and its not the first book ever written showing an unflattering side of a celebrity...

    Shoot even Reagan's daughter wrote a book about their family life and some of it wasn't flattering.....

    I might buy it and also the Jackie Kennedy Book.

  • She's not dangerous she's become a joke and the media loves her. Maybe if she would stay in Alaska and tend to her knitting she would be forgotten.

    Sara loves the attention and she seems to always pop up or just around the corner wherever theres a Republican event.

    Joe McGinnis is out to make him some money. He's no different then Sara other then being a Male.

    And your side has Beck,Limbaugh, Hannity, O'reilly

    ONLY THEIR side can condemn and curse whoever they like with complete impunity....and society doesn't hold THEM to any standards.

  • I will say this I dont approve of the name calling especially involvoing females. If you dont understand why the first lady called us a hatefull nation,considering segregation,internment camps and the treatment we have handed out to our native americans I dont know what to say.YES IT IS CHANGING BUT A LOT OF DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE AND STILL IS.

    PERSONALLY i dont care what Gov PALIN DOES BUT PLEASE DONT SAY YOU DONT HAVE NAME CALLERS AND NAYSAYERS ON THE RIGHT BECAUSE THAT IS NOT TRUE.

    -- Posted by lamont on Fri, Sep 16, 2011, at 12:07 AM
  • Like I said McGinnis is out to make money just like Palin. They do what they have to do to rake the money in. I'm not sure who you are referring to about the nasty name calling. I don't watch much tv except for cnn in the morning for about an hour, then I switch to the court channel to watch a little bit of a trial.. (btw Conrad Murray's trial is coming up fast) Evening I watch the local news and then I might watch something on Lifetime or pop in a movie.... I read books mostly......

    And about those names, its not that no one has ever been called those names before. Right here in good old Mtn Home I have heard people refer to some as those same names. At my age not much shocks me anymore. Who's is calling Palin those names?

    How can the Democrats fear Palin when they think she is a joke. Seriously I don't think Obama fears running against any of the candidates. As the days go by new dirt keeps piling up on them.

    Bachmann claiming a child developed Mental Retardation after taking that cancer vaccination and theres no proof any where in the medical profession that it happened.

    Now what is this about Perry authorizing the execution of an innocent man. Only caught a small detail of this so don't know if he has already been killed or going to be killed....

    I remember years ago when Bush was Gov of Texas he gave the order to kill Karla Faye Tucker even after many people pleaded to spare her life but he wouldn't.

  • I THINK I WAS PRETTY CLEAR....I DONT CARE WHAT GOV PALIN DOES,HAS DONE,OR WILL DO,NOW that you brought it up hommer the american public made the guys race pertenant because they want to know those things and the stupid book writer wants to sell books at any exspense,so blame yourself.Maybe you will think twice before you call people out of there name ...but i dought it.It is the only thing you know how to do.Youll notice i did not call anyone our resident bigot,who thinks he's better than anyone here.

    So hommer who's nose are you trying to rub something in????????

    ZOOK... the debates are a public forum that no poletician in his right mind on the national level is going to say something racist,You hit the nail on the head when you said not in public anyway.I think the best illistration would be the cartoons and such that circulated in congressional e mails and back offices,and that is a reality.I dont give passes i just dont pay any attention to anything about Gov PALIN.iF I REMEBER CORRECTLY I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE BOOK WRITER FROM THE BEGINNING,BUT THAT IS CONVENIENTLY FORGOTTEN.MSNBC MADE and issue of the name calling I know Criss Mathews did....i consider Behar and Goldberg the same as Rush,you guys dont have a problem with Rush and Savage etc why should there be a problem with Goldberg and BEHAR.I do think that all of it is over the top but that's me.The coded and not so coded language used against ,Pelosi was really over the top.How come no issue on Baheners use of the aircraft etc.....yeah the one that comes with the job...the one you cant refuse ,the one that it's outfitting hasnt changed.WE COULD SLING GARBAGE ALL DAY FOR WHAT?????????

    I dont think anyone hates GOV PALIN......FOR some she is a con job,and the money keeps rolling in.What is her contribution to this process???????? that should be the question,and were is the money going??????? tHAT IS WHAT MOST PEOPLE DISLIKE.sHE WONT GET ANY OF MINE SO I DONT CARE.bUT WE DONT FEAR HER.I SAID IT BEFORE IF MC CAIN HADNT PICKED HER HE WOULD HAVE GOT MY VOTE. ........... HOWS THAT FOR RACE BAITING??????????? LOOK IN THE MIRROR....HOLLIER THAN THOU.......

If the price is ok for my pocket book I would rather buy the real thing and not the digital copy...(could turn out to be a bestseller) I share all my books and I got a houseful of them.

    I've been collecting books since I was 19 yrs old.

  • I like Sarah Palin and I don't care who knows it. She has the right to make a living the same as anyone else. Her daughter does too.

    We see celebrities all of the time doing public service announcements about practicing safe sex and then starring in TV shows or movies where they sleep with absolute strangers. How is that different?

    McGinnis purposely intruded on a familiy's privacy to "supposedly get the dirt".

    Kitty Kelley has been accused of the same. And the name Stephen Frey comes to mind on making money on falsified stories.

    If they want to sell a book, then let them, but, make sure that the media says it is an unathorized version of their brand of the truth.

    I don't know how many people would feel if they had someone living next door to them for the express purpose of writing about their every move. Especially when there are young children involved. I would feel that way about anyone regardless if they are celebrities and public figures.

    The last question is. If someone offered you a job that paid good money and would help your family financially, would you take it? Of course you would.

    Would you be upset if a passing aquaintance that had never been in your home or really had any interaction with you personally, accepted money to "spill the goods on what kind of person you were like" Would you shrug this off? Probably not.

    So here is my preachy addition to this commentary. I am amused at the mindet of people who are more afraid of a woman instead of some guy who is playing with our money as if it was his own to spend.

  • Like I said its all about making money, and you do what you have to do.

    Some have no scruples and some do.

    If I buy the book will I believe everything written in it, probably not. I have read a few books by Kitty Kelly the unauthorized ones and I take her books with a grain of salt. Does that mean because I buy a book I'm part of what ever is in the book? I think not! I'm curious just like everyone else, I can never get enough of reading.... I want to read so I can form my own opinion !

    I have many many books, probably a book you would like to read. I even have the book of Mormon sitting on my nightstand. Am I a Mormon ........No but that doesn't stop me to learn about the Mormon faith.......

  • So what do you know about Joe McGinnis? Other than he is a crime writer?

    I personally don't read the self-books by politicians or celebrities How can you dispute ghost-writing and/or editors and publishers who want to make something sensationalized?

    I do keep a watch on how they behave bfore and during and after they do the book tour.

    There only two authors that I have personally met and enjoyed as genuine. Patrick McManus and Susan Case.

    Doris Day has a few skeletons in her closet too, but I personally wouldn't want to accuse her of not being the wholesome girl next door, She made me happy with her movies.

    -- Posted by KH Gal on Fri, Sep 16, 2011, at 1:14 PM
  • Joe McGinnis is a non fiction author. His first book was about Richard Nixon and he has worked for the inquirer however before that he worked as a reporter for a paper in Massachusetts.

    He signed a contract with Random House to write about Sara palin and was offered the Rental house next door to her, so he could do his research.

    I think there isn't a person on earth who don't have skeletons in their closet.

    I have never met an Author......... You must of gone to a book signing?

    I gotta get back to work........Got an order for 7 aprons and I have only a couple done...

  • HewBet, they are having premaritial sex too in real life, look at how many babies there are with couple who are not married. Also, in the pretend acting, do you see very many of them discussing disease or condom use, not really, so what kind of example is that?

    So it is okay if you do that for a living, but not if you are a teenage girl? Where is the accountability for the father of the baby? He has gotten more mileage on being a reality star than Bristol has ever imagined.

    Condoms do not work 100% and everyone knows that, plus you have to use them.

    MSM:

    I knew who Joe McGinnis was, I just wanted to see if you did. I have met Patrick McManus twice, I have met Lawrence Block once and Susan Case is in your back yard, She lives in GF and writes fantastic books.

    Zook, you might like McManus for your recovery time. He was born in Idaho and lives in Spokane, very funny, outdoor stories.

  • Zook I didn't miss the point on Bachmann... I knew she hammered Perry on signing into law that all 12 year old girls had to have that vaccination unless the parents opt out on it instead of having an opt In.

    She went on TV the next day saying that after the debate a lady came crying to her saying her child developed Mental Retardation because of that Vaccination. This statement is in question because the Medical association has to record of that ever happening and they want to know who this person is if its really an actual person or a fictious person.

    They have an offer in to Bachmann on coming forward with this person.

    Bonnie so you doubt I know authors. I have read several of his books because I unlike most women don't read romance novels or fiction. The only thing I read is Non Fiction. I will not waist my time on fiction... You don't have to make life up its everything and more......

    ZOOK....THE PRESIDENT WAS CALLED A COMMUNIST,SOCIALIST ETC.for some that is personal....HIS WIFE WAS DEPICTED AS A STREET *****,AND HIS CHILDREN WERE CALLED PICKNENY'S....( A SOUTHERN RACIAL SLUR) I COULD GO ON BUT I AM NOT GOING TO The merits of what is worst is not worth the time, it suffices to say that none of it should be happening from either side.For some reason there are people who feel that coded oratory is ok,it is not and having been on the receiving end of it ,it does not change what it was meant to say.Rush is a master at it and he is dispised for it in some cicrcles and in some he is applauded to each his own.like I said anyone applauding Rush is part of it.

    KHGAL....IT TAKES 2 TO TANGO......BRISTAL BASED ON HER COMMENTS IS A BIG GIRL WHO KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING AND THE CONSEQUENCES.I think the FATHER HAS A MAJOR RESPONSIBILTY.The fact that he made more money than BRISTAL hasnt got a thing to do with it.The Alaskan courts I am sure is in his pocket as it should be.Bristal was not and angel and i would kinda think her MOM knew that.SO MOM either counciled and it did no good or MOM didnt council at all, which is it??????? wE WILL NEVER KNOW AND TRUTHFULLY i DONT WANT TO.

  • Homer, I have a great idea. Why don't you start your own blog. It's easy. You have to let the world know your real name, and you have to give the newspaper your address. Not that hard.

  • So I guess that means you won't have a blog of your own Homer........Darn I was hoping you would, not that I want to know who you are but to see what you write... Oh well I will go back to what it is I do.... :)

  • hommer....first you want to make a deal with Roy and me and then you end the phrase with a snide remark.Whats up with that ??????? Learn how to talk to people !!!!!!!!!! "WHAT A SAD EXCUSE FOR A MATURE ADULT" I thought I would send that projection back at you. A post from you is not a priviledge, it's usually and attempt at degradation.I can do without it.Speaking of patterns I SUGGEST THAT YOUR PATTERN OF INSULTS IS VERY TELLING....... ABOUT YOU.I am not the only one who doesnt like it. I AM THE ONE WHO WILL TELL YOU ABOUT IT AND WILL NOT ACCEPT WHAT YOU DISH OUT. GO ON BEING SMUG IN YOUR POST OR ANY OTHER WAY YOU WANT WITH YOUR SNIDE REMARKS, IF YOU INFER TOWARDS ME OR ARE INSULTING I WILL CALL IT.I DONT CARE WETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.YOU NEED TO KEEP THAT GARBAGE TO YOURSELF.YOU PROVOKE YOU WILL RECEIVE. IT IS THAT SIMPLE AND IN THAT STATEMENT IS THE SOLUTION.SO lets see what kinda nut job you are??????? or do you need a" whipping boy to make yourself feel better" your projections again......REMARKS REMEMBER ????????

  • Rand Paul is absolutely right. Maybe he should introduce a bill repealing the 1992 law that mandated the 1.6gpf toilets? He IS a U.S Senator, isn't it his JOB to try and fix the things that he sees wrong in the country?

    He also makes a great point about choice. The bill that passed in 2007 calling for light bulbs to become gradually more efficient beginning in 2012 and ending in 2020, which passed in 2007 with bipartisan support went too far. They should of written it so that the old energy inefficient bulbs would still be available and explained to the American people that even though fluorescent light bulbs cost about five times more than incandescents, Americans would save a total of $12 billion a year by 2020, about $85 per year for every household, if the new standards are left in place due to lower electricity bills. Then let us make the decision on what we want to use.

    That video of Michelle Obama is a bit disturbing. I can't make out what she said and i'm not gonna speculate on it, but that disdainful look on her face when she said it makes me believe that it wasn't something nice.

  • It all depends on the tone of her voice. She could of said "All this for the Flag" in a nice way, by using a nice tone and not a tone you are hoping she used...

    Unless you can read lips you will never know for certain. Of coarse Republicans want to interpret what she said in a mean way. Makes for a better rant..........

    You can interpret what she said any way you want to. Unless she whispered in your ear you will never know what she really said.....

    What that video isn't saying is Glen Beck brought a deaf man onto his show to read Michelle's lips and he didn't think she said Damm Flag

  • I always will give benefit of doubt first, there could be a possibly that the situation isn't really what you think it is... Doesn't matter to me who the person is......

    Wouldn't you want the same thing?

    I also heard another version of the video .......she was talking about what she ate for lunch something about fries in the bag and she was full and that's why Obama smiled at her...

    We will never know for certain what was actually going on in that moment......

  • NEWS FLASH........what the FIRST LADY said was .......they dont know how to fold the flag....I am sure as many as she has seen folded she would have a working knowledge of how it should be done.....I might add it is not and easy task if you have not done it before I guess she was sopposed to stand there with a smile plastered on her face.....I thought it was a solemn moment but thats me.

    Could be she felt some empathy that they were not doing it right or all was not going right.But it's the O'BOMAS SO LETS FIND SOMETHING TO GO AFTER.....WHAT A JOKE.......
