Well as for Libya, unfolded is the word - we really screwed the pooch on that one, it's just not well publicized is all.

I am calling a miss on Rotten Limberger, being somewhat surprised by him not getting kicked off the airwaves even temporarily, and wondering what 11th hour mischief went on to keep him there, prolly involved duct-taping his gaping gob shut for a while - and it sure ain't given me no confidence in humanity, that for damn sure.

Oh, and Occupy and failure due to poor tactics, we can damn near call that one, too.

This one was back in February:


Peter Schiff - "Regardless of what the triumphant Keynesians would have you believe, my analysis continues to be that the current combination of monetary and fiscal stimulus is driving us toward disaster. Instead of a real recovery, the US will experience an inflationary depression. Europe, on the other hand, will suffer much less, precisely because it was not seduced by the short-term appeal of stimulus."

I was just going to tell you that I found it lol....

Thanks for bumping it up....

But you must admit, Kwick, that taken out of context that can mean something I didn't intend it to, right?

We're doing good now that the Prez doesn't have 100% authority to do whatever he wants because there is a congress that could stop it. I hated when Bush could do whatever he wanted after 2000 for the same reason.

Government works best for all of us when they fight each other.

I do feel "touched" that you bothered to posted a quote of mine here though, even if it lost all of it's integrity without the rest of the post.

Are you flirting with me????

Come on man... don't fight it.

Hero's prediction for the debates:


Obama: "Outsourcing, blah blah, Bain Capital. Business...bad, Govt Good."
Romney: "There you go again Barry, you keep bringing up things from over a decade ago you know I had nothing to do with...but lets talk about your record, unemployment far higher and for far longer then you could imagine when you passed your economic program. Millions of jobs gone or reduced or sent overseas, billions of dollars wasted on speculative so-called green energy companies that happened to be big contributors and who you supported but ultimately failed or to support factories and jobs in China and Europe. You can't hide your failure to lead by attacking my successful record in business. Maybe if you had a little more real world experiance [sic] in business instead of your classroom theories and poll tested political slogans you would not have to nitpick my record from over a decade ago to distract the American people from what you've been doing for the last four years."

Former Hutaree militia member nominated for constable in southern Washtenaw County

/
Quote:

A former member of the Hutaree militia who was acquitted of plotting to rebel against the U.S. government hopes to have a new gig: township constable.

Michael Meeks got 120 votes in the Republican primary Tuesday in Washtenaw County's Bridgewater Township. He now advances to the fall election. It's unclear if there will be a Democratic opponent, although there were a few write-in votes.

Meeks says the job of constable is an unpaid position in Bridgewater. He's unsure what his duties will be but says he's eager to serve the community near Manchester.

The 42-year-old is a former Marine. Meeks was among members of the Hutaree (hoo-TAR'-ee) militia charged with conspiring to attack the government. In March, a federal judge acquitted him and others, saying prosecutors failed to prove their case.

Mitt will be disqualified not long before the election and Paul Ryan will be the nominee.

I actually made this prediction alredy in the Skeptics Society Forum, titled Romney Decoy. The idea iz that The Powerz That Be knew early on that Romney coud never beat Obama, so theyve kept the real candidate off the radar az much az possible. Romneyz purpose iz to draw all the fire, then wen its too late, SUPRIZE! Jon Huntsman or Gary Johnson iz the real candidate!

Maybe it will be Paul Ryan, now that he'z the VP pick, but that duznt exactly fit with my conspiracy theory.

More fallout from the Ryan VP pick:


Auraptor cites the Romney funding boost as proof in his thread 'Why Obama is losing'.

Chrisisall to Auraptor - "yer party & yer candidate's chances are dead."

Jongstraw - "This election may be won or lost based on voter turnout. I don't think that picking Ryan increases the numbers for Republicans, but I do think it provides Obama with fertile material to motivate his base into going out and voting for him again."

Storymark agrees, as does Niki.

Jongstraw - "Ryan is a disaster for Romney and Republican hopes."

Auraptor - "You go ahead and believe the heavily biased Democrat sampled polls. I'm giddy over the Ryan pick, and can't wait for a complete and total ASS KICKING come November."

Hero - "Romney now has the benefit of cash and momentum and can focus on a handful of battleground states. I think you will see the Romney offensive take off during the Republican National convention with a phase 2 rollout the week after the Dem convention. Dem's have the money to keep up the fight in September but by October the President will be rolling on empty barring some dynamic change..."

Cavetroll suggests that the choice is irrelevant, as no one will change their vote based on it.

Hero feels confident about Ryan in the VP debate - "Ryan vs Bidden will be a knockout."

Sometimes you own the libs. Sometimes, the libs own you.


This is the kind of thing that makes me wish I'd started the thread earlier:


The Heritage Foundation (conservative think tank) predicted back in 2001 that the Bush tax cuts "would lead the country into a brave new era of prosperity."

Auraptor thinks the two people ejected from the RNC for racial taunts towards a black camerawoman were probably Occupy gatecrashers. Or that it might just have been 'a media thing' (??) and that people are jumping the gun by calling it Racism.

Paul Krugman anticipates a lot of media comparisons of the truthiness of DNC speeches vs. Paul Ryan's - in 'an orgy of false equivalence'.

Stefan Rahmstorf (climate scientist) thinks 2013 is likely to be even hotter than 2012, barring any volcanic eruptions. And that the climate skeptic lobby will shift to blaming global warming on El Nino.

Niall Ferguson (conservative economist) thinks a double-dip recession is likely in the US in 2013 due to political stalemate sending the US over the fiscal cliff

Larry Flint, the publisher uv Hustler magazine iz offering a miilion dollarz for Romneyz income tax recordz. Since he had to submit them for the vetting process, at least back in 08 for VP, therez agood chance sumbudy will collect the prize. Hardly any chance at all that there wont be a crisis level problem within them and my prediction will come true.

I picked this article up from Slashdot. The authors of this paper are predicting food riots by next year. Their evidence is that when the revolts started in Egypt, Libya and Syria the food price index was running at 220. We have been running steadily at 213 since. With the Midwest drought they are predicting that food price index will jump to 220-240.

...Pretty simple. Black dots are the food prices, red lines are the riots. In other words, whenever the UN’s food price index, which measures the monthly change in the price of a basket of food commodities, climbs above 210, the conditions ripen for social unrest around the world. CSI doesn’t claim that any breach of 210 immediately leads to riots, obviously; just that the probability that riots will erupt grows much greater. For billions of people around the world, food comprises up to 80% of routine expenses (for rich-world people like you and I, it’s like 15%). When prices jump, people can’t afford anything else; or even food itself. And if you can’t eat—or worse, your family can’t eat—you fight...
