    Just because you don't mind these retarded imbeciles shitting on your living room floor doesn't make it acceptable to the rest of us civilized folks.

    There is no Rapture. Jesus is dead. And no one is coming to whisk you away to a big spirit in the sky's cloud home. We have one planet and we can't live on it without everything else. (Hint: there's a reason it's called an ecoSYSTEM).


  6. s Says:

    Bluedog49.....he is begging for it. He is truly, truly giving us the finger....I wasn't kidding. This is a sick, juvenile, and very dangerous person. In his mind, he's mad at us for not loving him and obeying him......he is throwing this lifting of this ban in our faces...especially the faces of the left. He is trying to "get it up" for his speech Wed. cause he's cornered, scared, and isolated. He never ever intended to lead the whole country. He intended to ignore half of it, and feed his buddies at our expense.

    Any one who think's this drilling and the latest possibly selling off our highway's to foreign invester's is as crazy as the dictator and we need to srop them while we have a mother earth to save......Blessing's to all except the stupid reich wingers...I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to roll over, ever.

    some good news:
    House easily passes anti-terror bill
    Updated 1/9/2007 7:36 PM ET
    WASHINGTON (AP) — Anti-terror legislation sailed through the House on Tuesday, the first in a string of measures designed to fulfill campaign promises made by Democrats last fall.
    Patterned on recommendations of the commission that investigated the Sept. 11 attacks, the far-reaching measure includes commitments for inspection of all cargo carried aboard passenger aircraft and on ships bound for the United States.

    The vote was a bipartisan 299-128.

    I agree as well. Except I feel it in my heart. It's a killing me for real. I even had a heartattack in November. AFTER THE ELECTION. Ain't that a b*tch?

    He's flipping the bird to the USA. At least 77% of us thinkers, anyway. Those of us who have been yelling at everyone for 6 years got called every name in the book. This is just another "I told you so" for us, and that is bad, way bad.


  15. Marie Says:

    The arrested development of George Bush is just too much to expect us to tolerate any more -- he is a defiant, adolescent punk, and he needs to be knocked down a peg or two.


  16. s Says:

    I agree Sharon.
    Thank you Bush for:

    Perhaps ruining our window of opportunity to turn global warming around

    murdering our soldiers for your ego...it's for nothing else

    having fun flaunting your power and driving decent people nuts...(he knows what he's doing...that's why ist fun.....he's that sick)

    spying on us so you can feel safer as you give us the finger again and again......

    building dention camps so you can play holocust

    dumbing down our schools so future Americans will be even dumber than we were to allow you to be president and calling it "no child left behind." That's for sure. You aim to get em all.

    Letting "Nature take it's course" in New Orleans and feeling like you hit the jackpot........fewer Democratic voters.

    Gutting Habeus Corpus.......you really want to do something original you know? You want to go father and beyond what other presidents have done because you're "special". What better way than to dare to take our rights away. How brave you must feel.......


  17. johnny Says:

    I guess raping Iraq of 75% of it's oil wasn't enough?

    More! More! More!

    Money! Power! Greed!

    At least we know God doesn't exist. If God existed, he'd destroy the unseen hand that is guiding the useful idiot Bush.


  18. trueblue Says:

    freebird9,

    Are you OK now?

    Any long term damage?

    I'm so sorry to hear about your health problems.

    The "idiots" dear Flaco, are those whom you can count yourself a part of. The idiots are those who put their loyalty to Bush and the republican party first, and the United States last. Like Bush and the entirety of the republian party, you are a traitor to the United States. Prison is too good for you.

    Firebird9, I had my heart attack in Nov. 1999 and triple by pass that should of been a quadrupel that christmas....Yep! Know exactly what you mean, my heart break's for what this stupid basterd has and is doing to our country...Thing is I knew all this or close to all this was going to happen when they voted this nut bag into office (1999)..Had been studing all about this terrible family way before then...

    I send Blessing and healing thought's to you and trust they will help with you're recovery......


  23. trueblue Says:

    Sharon,

    Are you OK?
    Wow.


  24. freebird9 Says:

    Thanks Sharon and Trueblue. Yes, some damage. But I can live with it. I just have to make some changes is all. Like stop smoking, which is hard. I am trying. I have cut back. I start on the patch next week--Monday. It's the cost of meds, that are gonna kill me now. I went back to work in about 2 weeks because of the medical insurance and the cost of medicine. Now I really want some sort of low cost coverage for EVERYONE.

    Trueblue, the truth is, no....I manage but only have 70% of the old ticker that is operating..Lost 30% and the Dr. didn;t tell me he decided not to fix the 4 valve, found that out from my present doctor 2 year's ago when I complained I felt better before the surgery than any time since.....I had insurance at the time and not when I found out.....Am pissed that some of the Dr.s have the idea people are like car's with hood's that can be lifted any time as needed.....Never thought I would live this long any way, each day is a gift and I try to give back as much as I can since I am the last of my family, all older and younger are gone but me...Sorry for being off topic all..Blessings


  29. Hardy Haberman Says:

    It's time to march on Washington and demand Bush's resignation. It would only take a few thousand of us to make news coverage, and if we could get a million. Even better.

    It is time to do something and the congress isn;t going to do it.


  30. trueblue Says:

    freebird9,

    I hope you will take it easy @ work while your body heals.
    Good luck to you.
    Do not cheat and have a smoke on the batch.... = BAD!

    Sharon,

    Boy, I'm really sorry that you can't get your situation solved.
    No recourse through the bas-ard Dr?
    Ma has MassHealth, which helps poor and or disabled, and I think elderly. It's a shame you can't come here.
    It's a bigger shame that other states don't have that safety net coverage.

    You aren't alone.
    You have us. We love you.


  31. Clyde the Ripper Says:

    Sharon,

    You will never be the last of your extended families, of which I am sure this is only one. As long as you can think, act, and love you will be though of, acted for, and loved well.

    Its OK as long as they don't spill anything, disturb anything, put in any new roads, don't kill anything, don't make any noise, don't make any light pollution at night, don't produce any emmissions or smells, don't use any local resources, and...


  33. katy Says:

    freebird9 - yes, you must quit... all there is to it... and you will need help and support... been 5 years for me, after 30 years of smoking...
    final determination came after watching my dad suffocate from emphysema...
    i tried the patch - didn't work for me... too much nicotine...
    the zyban/wellbutrin was the biggest help...
    and bumming cigs - DO NOT BUY A WHOLE PACK - you'll end up smoking them to justify the expense! :-)
    i would light up, take a few drags, carefully put it out and save it for later (gross, i know)... took a couple months to get down to 1/week and then i realized it had been 2 weeks and it was OVER!
    DO NOT GIVE UP. ...just keep on trying...

    sorry... down from soapbox... been there, know how hard it is!

  36. mbhdude Says:

    So Las Vegas Louie........
    Where does it stop? ans what re you going to say if there is a major oil leak up there?..... what's a few animals anyway.
    As every one knows, there is only enough oil there for 6 months to a year of oil. It will not dent our oil problems.
    We have to stop somewhere.
    But, as you say, what's a few more animals to you.
    We don't have have to have it both ways, all we do is push harder for alternative energy.

    The BIG FISH have set their sights on getting RICH. Duh! Duh! The BIG FISH will be getting even bigger if that's possible. Move over Bill Gates: Trillionaires will rule this world.

    Let's hope that the trillionaires' severance and retirement benefits pay will be even higher than Home Depot's Nardelli. Who could possibly live the good life on a $210,000,000 severance package? Ha! Ha! Not me!!!!!

    Comment by unbelievable

    Yes, there will be, it will be not of mans doings however. It will be the big wheel of time, a solar cycle, like the carbon cycle, or the precession, and if you don't embrace compassion and dissolve yourself of materialism, your only defense, have pure compassion for your fellow man and sister, you will not make it thru. Thats my view, and opinion of the insanity to come.

    There is a way to extract gas and oil in an area and not destroy it. Unfortunately it eats into the bottom line. If they acted respectfully then they would deserve respect. To me the oil companies have no track record of being careful and conscientious. Your reputation is built on what you have done not what you say you will do.

    Actually I disagree, I am not rich by any means, I chose to work with my hands, and I help people, not exploit them.

    Actually, Krazny, I've seen a lot of thoroughly obnoxious behavior from our stable of resident trolls that pretty much defines 'excessively foul or abusive behavior'. All but the very, very worst are allowed to stand, but any and all posts referencing 9/11 Truth disappear faster than snowflakes on a July lawn. Interesting, how much of TP's agenda can be divined from which posts they censor and which they allow to stand...

    Perhaps, but Flaco isn't capable of grasping non-literal meanings. I suppose the "Rapture" could be the sun when it supernovas 5.5 billion years ago, but people like Flaco can't see beyond themselves or the immediate endorphine rush he gets from posting insults to liberals (probably because he doesn't get them from laughter or friendship).

    Zep,

    I play a MMORPG, called Dark Age of Camelot. It is an online virtual world loosely based upon Arthurian lore, and I do mean loosely. you can check it out at darkageofcamelot.com if you like. I will warn you it is highly and addictive, and a long ways away from flight simulators.

    At any rate good night all, might check back before bed, but my wife and I are going to watch a movie.

    #75 - katy,
    The real drive in Germany has not been solar but in insulation. They use light weight building blocks that are derived from the technology that we derived from the Space Shuttle thermanl tiles. When Terra-Cotta construction techniques are used, polyurethane foam is inserted as insulation. There was also the yearly furnace inspection by a real chimney sweep who in the Schwabian regions where I lived for a while actually wore a Top-Hat and black attire Oh - he also carried a ladder - fiber glass in that era. His brush was out of Dickens'.

    I've not seen those claims. Do you have a link? What I have seen are videos showing an explosion just prior to the planes impacting the towers. They bear the appearance of an armor pierceing round hitting the tower just before the nose of the jet impacts the tower. I have also seen evidence of explosions at the base of the towers seconds before the towers collapse.

    Comment by unbelievable

    Now you're beginning to sound like Cheney..."I haven't seen ____" I've mentioned the links several times. You just refuse to look. For one who claims to be a teacher, you are certainly dogmatic in your view of the events of 9/11.

    Just taking logic, explain logically how WTC 7 could experience a symmetrical collapse into its own footprint, from assymetrical fires?

    Just taking logic, explain how cell phone calls could be made from commerical jets traveling at 30,000 feet in altitude and around 500 mph, when the technology to make such calls is only now being installed in commercial aircraft?

    Just taking logic, explain how a building can collapse from a fire at the same rate as material free-falling through air.

    Just taking logic, explain how a jet with a 100+ foot wing-span can fit through a 16 foot hole without leaving major pieces-parts on the outside of that hole.

    Just taking logic, explain how a jet-fuel fire burning at 800 degrees can leave a pool of molten steel.

    Just using logic, explain what happened to the wreckage of flight 93...since it supposedly crashed into the ground, yet there was not enough wreckage at the site to reassemble a commercial jet.

    Just using logic, explain how the dna tests of the victims of flight 77 did not reveal the presence of any passengers of Middle Eastern decent.

    Just using logic, explain how 15 people managed to get on to flight 77 without being noticed by the flight attendents prior to take off.

    These are just a few of the 'anomolies' that I have run across. There's more....like videos of melting metal pouring out of a hole in one of the towers, in a location where the jet fuel/office furniture fire was not hot enough to melt metal...or what looks like running explosions preceding the fall of the buildings.

    Logic does not explain these anomolies. Only blind faith in the offical explanation does. And blind faith does not befit one who claims to be an Athiest.

    Glad to have you back. Hope you know you are essential here.

    I pretty much agree with what you say, BnF. The least you can do to honor the victims of 9/11 is ask for the whole truth, no matter what. And in the official version there are info anomalies the size of Texas...


  193. POTTERY Says:

    My first visit to this blog. I live in Trinidad, West Indies. The Third World !Its realy very refreshing to hear the views of you people who I assume are mainland Americans. Keep up the fight AGAINST big business controlling our destiny. Its a BAD thing.

    Since Iran will most likely retaliate against a US/Israeli attack, by cutting of production to the attacking countries, I believe that this move is intended to start setting up an alternative fuel reserve.

    It's yet another indication of what's really going on. Like the carriers being sent to that area, and a naval admiral being put in charge of regional operations.

    Time is running out folks. Wakeup from your sleep... and do it NOW!

    on sept 12, 2001, i was called "you people" by someone very close to me when i said 9/11 was all about oil and a conspiracy of uminaginable magnitude........

    not such a crazy way of thinking after all eh?

    we are doomed to failure people!!!!! even if we take to the streets, the military commissions act ensures that bloodshed will reign and many will never be seen or heard from again...........

    by being complacent and apethetic, we've brought this whole thing on ourselves.


  197. JPV Says:

    Yep Nancy, your 100% correct. The US, as we knew it, is finished.


  198. hippie with a pistol Says:

    Once again, TP libs have no interest in getting informed. Contrary to their headline exploration and development is not permitted in sensitive areas and it is highly unlikely that Alaska legislature will permit entry in said areas. And by the way, Bristol Bay is a natural gas field, not oil, with potential to produce 1 trillion cubic feet of gas. That's a huge amount of natural gas, a cleaner fuel than oil and coal.

    http://www.dog.dnr.state.ak.us/oil/products/publications/bristolbay/bif/bbch3.pdf

    Portions of the license area are located within the Bristol Bay Fisheries Reserve. This reserve was established by the state legislature under AS 38.05.140(f). Surface entry to develop an oil or gas lease is not permitted on submerged and shorelands within the reserve unless the legislature specifically finds that surface entry will not constitute a danger to local fisheries.


  199. cynical ex-hippie Says:

    #210 So it is up to the Alaska legislature to determine the risk to fisheries? I'm sure they'll be well informed when they research it on the series of tubes called the Internets. I'll send them an Internet right away, I just hope they get it by next week, after all it's not a big truck, it's a series of tubes.

    Al Gore -Oh Savior of the World.
    Help us out of this quagmire. Oh enlightened ones save us before it is too late. Our doomsday has arrived, we are hopeless. The future of the universe depends on Al Gore.
    I have prayed and fasted that the chosen one would come.

    Superhero Al Gore has already saved the planet once when he was vice president.
    "Can't you guys keep this planet CO2 free for 10 minutes? I feel like the maid."
    He must return as President to clean up the world again.

    Okay best place to dump this (A thought on reading the financial times and thinking that for an enviromental corrospondent, the editor was better at his day job, horribly miscalculating the direction of the market. Seriously these guys aren't competent at the stuff they have degrees in and they get quoted as legitimate sources when discussing something completely different.)

    Think about this for a second: If mankind is the source of the problem that is global warming, wouldn't it be logical for the problem to be worse, where mankind basically is in greatest concentrations? Wouldn't urban heat islands mean, basically, that we have a huge big old signboard to just what the source of the problem is?
