  2. This is an old article from the Bush Administration era quoting Secretary of State Colin Powell and has been posted before. It is not a current article but for some reason has been re-published. Closing topic.

  5. A perfect example of the give it to me now - I don't want to work for it. Of course we need a balanced budget, line item vetos, term limits, etc. BUT supporting the democrats will not get you any of these items. That is why the Tea Party is so determined to change the participants in Washington in 2012. If you want those changes, then you better get behind the Republicans/Tea Party or you are just asking for 4 more years of disaster. Oh, BTW - our debt is 15 Trillion and climbing daily. FYI Tiffany - the "older" generation is the one that is trying to stop the decline. No, we have no problem with changes to SS, Medicare, Welfare, etc. but we paid our share for the 40-60 years we worked and now the "Y" generation wants us to what - go back to work - where? Companies hire young people not seniors. And YES, we do deserve to receive SS - it was our money the government took - we had no choice to contribute or not. If you put money in a savings account, don't you expect to be able to withdraw it when you need it. Only Government employees, local, state, and federal get to opt out of SS and receive big pensions at retirement. I know you think you are smarter than the rest of us here but not on this subject. It is our survival we are fighting for while you go all over the world looking for enlightment. You really should open your eyes to what is happening in our country. Just the of someone that has lived a very long time and would like to make it another 20 or so years. Sometimes life experiences count as much as degrees!

  7. MSNBC By Kurt Badenhausen FORBES updated 12/5/2011 7:37:55 AM ET The Texas jobs miracle has received a lot of attention since Rick Perry announced his candidacy for president in August. The numbers are impressive. Texas added 1.2 million net jobs since Perry took office as Texas Governor in December 2000, while the U.S. as a whole lost 1.1 million jobs during the same time. The gains have been fueled by a 40 percent rise in education and health services jobs the past decade, as well as a 67 percent jump in mining jobs, which includes the thriving oil industry. The jury is still out whether Perry can convince voters that his success in Texas can work on a national scale, but it remains that the Texas jobs story is far from over. Texas leads the way when it comes to states that will add the most jobs over the next five years on a percentage basis. Total employment in Texas is forecasted to expand 2.9 percent annually through 2015 according to research firm Moody’s Analytics. That represents 1.6 million new net jobs for the state over five years. Forbes.com slideshow: See where the jobs are Texas offers a low tax, business friendly climate with a surging population that offers a nearly unlimited supply of young labor. Texas ranks sixth in our look at the Best States for Business and Careers. The state has aggressively courted companies to come to Texas to take advantage of these attributes. “Everyone is singing from the same hymn book at the Austin Chamber of Commerce,” says Moody’s Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi. Gov. Perry sent letters to roughly 90 Washington State companies including Amazon.com, Microsoft and Starbucks last year when Washington was considering a tax increase on the state’s top earners. Perry wrote: “As the State of Washington considers a multibillion-dollar tax increase for citizens and businesses … I invite you to consider your future in America’s new land of opportunity: the State of Texas. If Washington doesn’t want your business, Texas does. Texas has no personal income tax and no interest in getting one.” The state uses its Texas Enterprise Fund to sweeten economic development deals for companies that are looking to relocate or expand. General Electric, eBay, Electronic Arts, 3M and TD Ameritrade have all announced expansion plans this year with help from the Texas Enterprise Fund. The job picture in Texas is not all rosy. The state’s population is growing so quickly that despite the job gains, unemployment is 8.5 percent, the highest in 24 years. It is double the rate from 2007. Minimum wage jobs represented 9.5 percent of Texas’ hourly workforce last year which is the highest rate in the country. The No. 2 state for job growth over the next five years is Nevada which Moody’s forecasts will expand 2.9 percent annually (Texas nips Nevada if you do not round the growth rates). Nevada has been decimated by the collapse of the housing market and recession. Home prices are off 60 percent and unemployment has soared from 4.2 percent five years ago to a recent 13.4 percent, the highest in the U.S. Yet Nevada and the rest of the southwest remains an attractive spot for businesses thanks to low business costs relative to California, an abundance of land and its proximity to Mexico. Arizona (No. 3), New Mexico (No. 4) and Oklahoma (No. 8) all expect strong employment gains. Most of the states expecting strong job gains have one thing in common: all but two (New Mexico and Oregon) are right-to-work states. These states give employees the right to decide if they want to join a union or not. There are 22 right-to-work states. Economist Arthur Laffer pulled together economic data on states as part of a new book, "Eureka! How to Fix California," being published in February by California think tank Pacific Research Institute. Laffer found that in the past decade right-to-work states outperformed their union-shop counterparts in almost every metric. Gross state product growth was 53 percent versus 42 percent. Personal incomes rose 50 percent compared to 39 percent for union states. Job growth was 2.8 percent versus -1.3 percent and the population increase was 12 percent opposed to 6 percent. Companies are increasingly shunning union-shop states. Boeing is currently battling the National Labor Relations Board over its right to operate a $750 million aircraft assembly line in South Carolina instead of Washington State. The NLRB claims Boeing located the plant in South Carolina in retaliation for Boeing union workers in Washington going on strike. Boeing cites lower business costs in its choice of South Carolina for the plant.
  8. A totally uncalled for remark. Are you always so judgemental? A person's size has nothing to do with their right to happiness.
  9. Must be your computer or browser - chat is online and operating as it should. If you are using IE be sure you set the compatibility settings to all sites. Better yet, download google chrome and use it - no problems.
  10. bunk - there is nothing in the Chapter 7 sanctions that even mention currency. I will try to find the link but if someone else has it please post it.

  13. Glenn Beck just postponed his report until Thursday - said he had not received sufficient information to make a statement.
  14. Okay - at the rate this topic is going, a number of members will be banned before tomorrow morning. So to prevent having to ban almost everyone, I am closing the topic.
  15. There you go! My selection is not on the ticket so whoever challenges O needs full support from every conservative. And NO - none of them will be as disastrous to our country as O has been. But they also need to have solid backup in the House and Senate or they will not be able to change the direction this country is heading. DO NOT SIT this election out - if you do, you have no right to complain when our economy crashes, the jobless numbers escalate, and you can't find a doctor to treat your illness. Until someone takes it away, I just exercised my 1st Amendment right to FREE SPEECH!
  16. Will be an extremely interesting show Monday - if there is anyone that can find out the truth about our investment, I believe it is Glen. Just hope his information is positive.
  17. Short answer is Yes. Anything you type in a PM is going to show on the other end just as you sent it.
  18. This incident with Herman Cain and the damage done to him and his family as well as his campaign is typical of the down and dirty politics of the media today. Not one ounce of proof has ever been provided to back up the allegations but that doesn't matter because every news media, pundit, and political adversary has repeated it as though it were gospel and a fate accompli. The same thing has happened to Newt over the years. The actual truth has been replaced with lies that have been repeated so many times that people no longer care about the truth. If you are open minded and care to read what really took place, go to this link http://www.salon.com/2011/03/08/gingrich_divorce_hospital_cancer/ but be prepared to hear a different story. Also pay attention to the timelines as to when things really happened.
