LMAO!!! With Bolton gone the Trump administration is considering working with France to give Iran $15billion if they fall back to the nuke deal. The exploding heads on here and excuses made if this goes through will be hilarious. Nothing like a good pallet of cash.
LMAO is right. "Left the impression". So not only is this "exclusive" coming from super duper secret anon sources but apparently they're mind readers too.

Idiot. Blithering, drooling, idiot. Not surprised you believed that, more like, comforted.
 
Watching the whole thing again (9/11) on the history channel and so is my family. 13 year old daughter said that they covered very little of it in school today. She is getting a good education on Muslim ideology and Islamic rule tonight. I explained Sharia law and how the left is embracing it. She ask why? I told her because the left wants to take everything we have including our freedoms, especially women's. She gets it and says she will forever oppose the left. I told her to remember this because they will lie just like Taqyyia in the Quran to get their way. Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus because she understands this too. I have shown her those passages in the Quran. Wooo! Hooo! Suck it libs, 2 of my 3 children are conservatives. One is a liberal who is 37 years old and still in college. (Professional student) They have ruined him so far but, I have hope.

The son who is a liberal once recorded our conversation while I was driving him to OKC airport to catch a plane (Liberal tactic) and thought it would work in his favor. The other son (twins) married a girl they met in high school and befriended who was indoctrinated by their mother (my ex-wife) in me being a bad guy. The recorded conversation was about religion, politics and other stuff. After hearing the tape, the wife of the conservative twin who used to have a poor opinion of me called and apologized to me and said she found a new respect for me and we have become close. She let me know why. The liberal son to this day does not know she told me he had recorded the conversation. Winning Bigly I would say.
False: completely made up story to fit a conservative agenda
 

This makes zero sense. Is there anyone on here saying they agree with the banning of vaping? Ive only read people saying this was dumb by Trump to do this.

I know how I feel about this and Im sure many feel similar to this. They shouldn't have been banned, if the individual wants to take whatever risk that come with vaping, that is on the individual.

Like I said yesterday the Republican Party would be better off slowly merging with the libertarian party. Less stupid controlling shit like this, and more putting the choice and responsibilities on the individual the better.

Both parties today want to use big government to control you, neocons and neoliberals alike. They just disagree over what they want to spend your money on. Was Trump's budget fiscally conservative?

No and Ive bashed him for his spending many times. I do agree though it seems like the choice is really just really big government vs really really big government. Here is to hoping the republicans start turning a little more libertarian over the next few years.

Can you believe it, some of those who did not serve either for the same or worse reasons are the ones bitching the most.

Nope, completely true and shared to remind a certain poster that conservatism will not die out. In fact, most on here and I believe many of your leaders know that because of abortions (which affect liberals way more than conservatives) your numbers are going down which is why they need open borders and welcome the illegal vote. California is proof of this for me. Without California, the vote would probably never favor a Democrat again. Closing off the border (The Wall) would seal the deal.

Neocons are shrinking, entitlements are booming. CBO has been warning of that boom for quite a while, your guy Bernie wants way more. And then add open borders to the lunacy.

Edit: Good example, Warren rolls out a $200/mo increase to SS this morning. Populist vote buying with zero math behind it.

Vaping should never been approved so easily with so much unknown. The system failed on the front end.

Any ban should be temporary in nature until proper studies can be done.


Awful but it looks like it's in LA somewhere. Those people are a special kind of aloof. They don't know Kentucky is a state. I'm not even joking.
 
Of course it was a lie. Jameslee knew it was a lie and he posted it anyway. He's one of the most dishonest posters to ever hit this board.

I don’t think he’s dishonest. He just believes what he wants to believe and truly believes it, despite all the evidence being to the contrary.

He probably still sits out milk and cookies for Santa.
 
20,000 jobs in February. Here comes the slowdown.

** Ka-BOOM! **

US weekly jobless claims drop to five-month low.

  • The number of Americans filing applications for unemployment benefits fell to a five-month low last week.
  • The data suggested the labor market remains strong despite slowing job growth.
  • Initial claims for state unemployment benefits dropped to 204,000 for the week ended September 7, the lowest level since April, the Labor Department said.
Put that in your GD hat and smoke it, Mr. Gloom and Doom.

Jameslee isn't dumb, but he is devious. He knows what he is doing.
 
This is a really good talk presented by Peter Zeihan at the trade convention of ECC, Engineers and Construction Contracting association.

He talks about the global order changing because our relatively new found energy independence, aging world populations, and how our trade negotiations are really going down.

This is not my area, but seems plausible. I know that if I watch a one-sided Netflix documentary or sleep at a Holiday Inn Express doesn't make me an expert.


I'd like input from finance guys. Is he close to being right?

It's an 45 minute talk, so save it for tonight.

He has three books out that I haven't read, but will now make an effort to do so.

Introduction completes at 1:36.

Q and A at the end is also interesting.
