  1. Frank26 admin November 11, 2016 0 comment IMO they are down to the wire in collecting the 000’s… IMO the CBI is looking for a specific amount to get into their inventory numbers…they know how many dinars they printed… They know how many dinars were stolen… They know how many dinars were counterfeited… They know how many dinars were blown up…but they don’t know how many dinars were hidden by the citizens… They need to know exactly what is out there with the citizens… And the CBI is doing a seminar with the heads of Iraq to teach them the difference between counterfeit currency and real currency… Yhe citizens know what is going on…and I believe the citizens are going to bring in their dinars… They need to know about their M1, M2, M3, M0 figures…before they can add value to their currency…that would help them to determine what value they want…this is all part of the MR. They are in the last final stages of collecting the 000’s… They need to hit a certain percentage point of their currency of their M1, M2, M3 figures…in order for them to raise the value of their currency in 2016…they need to be accounted for. The project to lift the 000’s is old news…it has been going on for a long time…for years… But IMO this is…the end of this project…increase the value of your currency once you know these numbers and then introduce the LD’s at the beginning of 2017. I’m excited that their Monetary Reform is in an RI right now in 2016… And in order for them to accomplish what articles…are telling us in 2017 can only be done if they raise the value of their currency.
  2. Funny how censorship is okay when The Mob Mentality is in control. Don't worry just add God chose Trump (good or bad) in your next post and you'll be excepted as one of their own. B/A
  3. RV Me. I do believe if it had gone the other way many would be crying about fixed elections. Before the election even took place that was one of the biggest talking points. Nearly every conservative talk show, republican party member and so on were saying the voting was fixed/corrupted. They were telling us about dead people voting, and how illegals were voting, they had proof the voting machines had been hacked. It seems to me, both the liberal and conservative media got it wrong. The liberal media and their polls were wrong. The conservative media and their accusations got it wrong. One of the best things that did come out of this election is the lesson that the pundits really have no idea what they are talking about. Hopefully everyone will remember and learn from this lesson... Oh, never mind. We live in The United States of Amnesia, where the common people won't remember any of this in 3 weeks, because The Kardashians, or Bill Cosby or Brad and Angelina will fart and that will be all anyone will care about. Although I don't remember saying the Republicans broke education, I remember saying progressives created the education system. But now that you bring it up, I think history proves Bush's "No Child Left Behind" has been a disaster. Getting the Federal government into education or any state program is never a good idea. You know it and I know it too. I'm not sure why being progressive has become a bad thing. Many here go to the founding fathers and the constitution because of the religious freedoms and the god given rights it has afforded us, and while the constitution may be the greatest document ever written, it certainly wasn't conservative. Think about it. In their time, were they being conservative to go against the king and start a new country? I would have to say that was pretty progressive thinking. Being conservative across the board will get a country and it's people nowhere. Here is Webster's definition of conservative; : believing in the value of established and traditional practices in politics and society : relating to or supporting political conservatism Conservative : of or relating to the conservative party in countries like the United Kingdom and Canada : not liking or accepting changes or new ideas I've included the link because I know you like them... http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/conservative. I don't know about you, but I like the idea of change. Black and white TV was good but color is better. Leeches to cure might have been a decent idea, but modern medicine is better. Walking across America is cool, but riding my Road King is better... If today's movement of conservatism had been the mantra for the past 500 years, we as a whole would still think the world is flat... But of course there are those who still think that way.... Google it. It is actually pretty funny. One of the other great things to come out of this election are the states that legalized marijuana... This is going to be great for the Girl Scouts and their cookie sales!!! B/A Go RVvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
  4. No pain here... I wouldn't have voted for either one of those criminals... I think the real pain is yet to come. JMHO B/A
  5. November 10, 2016 “THIS JUST IN – UPDATE”………. We have a Very Very Very strong Belief, that Iraq will substantially raise the value of their Dinar, and make it Officially International and Exchangeable, sometime between NOW – November 10, 2016 and December 1, 2016. We know, this is ILLOGICAL. There is absolutely NO Basis for what we just posted – no proof, no facts, no evidence, no Logic, no NOTHING. But we ask you……..was there ANYTHING LOGICAL about what just happened 2 days ago, in the United States of America?……..against all supposed Facts, Evidence, Proof, Opinions, Polls, Experts and supposed Majority Mass Consensus?………as we’ve said for the last month……..look at what is ILLOGICAL……. if you choose. There is MASSIVE MOVEMENTS going on globally, and most of it, you will not see on TV or even the internet……..as we just evidenced in this 18 month U.S. election process. Unprecedented CHANGE “has happened” and “IS” happening……QUICKLY. Now, I know, “You’ll Believe it when you SEE it. Well, how about you Believe it, BEFORE you SEE it? Yes, Friends, we thought long and hard about whether or not, to actually post this date range prediction. Let’s be clear. We’re not doing this to get you to go out and buy more currency, make any sudden moves, compete with any other person or group to see who can call this event, or none of that – and we don’t want anything from you, as we ALWAYS clearly print here. We’re simply stating this range, because we CARE…..and you’ve been waiting, A LONG LONG TIME…….in more ways, than one. We give this a 98% probability of happening as we just described, within the time period we just gave. Do what you want with that, but we’re VERY excited right now, and we just wanted to share it with all of you…….because we CARE. That’s all………this just concerning IRAQ and their Dinar currency. The VN Dong, is still ready to move at Any Moment, but as we explained in our earlier posts, it’s dependent on the official ending announcement of ISIS in Iraq & Syria…….which at this time, is anybody’s guess. It could possibly ALL happen within the time frame above……..but in regards to the Iraq Dinar, we’re pointing to it, like never before, within the dates listed above. Please read this post a couple times, so as NOT to miss the Exact details, before you jump to any conclusions. Yes, you have our Full Permission, to absolutely DESTROY us, if this doesn’t happen in the time frame allotted above……and we realize, we would fully deserve the Beating. However……..at this time, we really really really really really like the date range above……..and as always, this is for your “ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY”. (Disclaimer: These are our Opinions Only. We’re not, Financial planners, Tax, Investment or Legal Professionals, Consultants, Shrinks, Guru’s, nor qualified to give Any Advice, Representation, Counsel, Bets, Odds, Readings, Business Schemes, take your Money, back door deals, bait & switch, trickery, future promises, get rich quick, Solve all your problems…….. or anything Serious like that, whatsoever.) We Fully Intend on this getting Done, as we described, by Dec. 1, 2016……..Internationally and “Very ILLOGICALLY”. (P.S. Are we actually really that Crazy, for going out on a limb again, like this?). Maybe. To YOU, the Very Best, Dr. Clarke B/A
  6. RV ME I think if Trump won the popular vote but lost The Electoral, the first thing is, he would not have conceded. Secondly, I think as you stated the fringe element (which is a part of any group) would have done a bit more than protested and cried like Clinton's supported have done. (Personally I see both those actions as pathetic). I think the Trump fringe would have been more violent. I base that on some of the rallies where violence was already taking place. I'm not blaming Trump or you, but the fringe element. Finally, I believe the Trump supporters here on DV would have been rabid in their posting. Heck they have been not only gloating but hammering those who didn't agree with them. Now I do admit Candy did over the top when calling all Trump voters sloped headed, knuckle dragging Neanderthals. As always JMHO B/A
  7. Don't you mean bake the dough and rake in the cash!!! Stoners loved baked goods. B/A
  8. Woo Hooo.... At least something good came out of the election! Now Social, you shouldn't be anti-tax... What if some criminal comes to steal your "medicine"? You do want the cops to show up when you call them... Tax dollars at work! B/A
  9. Can you imagine the response if President Trump had won the popular vote and lost to The Electoral College. The feeling here on DV and across the country would be very ugly. B/A
  10. Well thought out and very astute. I just wonder what the response would be if President Trump had won the majority of the popular vote and lost to The Electoral College. I'm willing to bet the tone would be very ugly indeed. Personally, I didn't have a dog in this fight, because I couldn't with good conscience vote for either criminal. I'm not 100% sure, but I don't remember a president elect being called as a defendant in a criminal case prior to be inaugurated. But that's okay, because everyone here seems to think he is a stand up guy who was chosen by our Lord to be the next Savior... Interesting times for sure. B/A
  11. Much of the world knew a few hours after voting concluded that Donald Trump will be the 45th president of the United States, based on the tally of electoral college votes. But as of Wednesday morning, Hillarious Clinton was still leading in the popular vote, by a margin of 135,495. Clinton had 59,186,057 votes, while Trump had garnered 59,049,470. While confusing—and frustrating—to many, it’s not the first time in history that election results reflect such a discrepancy. In the 2000 election, Al Gore won the popular vote but lost the presidency to George Bush, who won five more votes from the electoral college. In addition to Bush, only three other former candidates in U.S. history have lost the popular vote but won the presidency: Benjamin Harrison in 1888, Rutherford B. Hayes in 1876 and John Quincy Adams in 1824. In 2012, when President Barack Obama won the re-election against former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, Obama claimed 332 electoral college votes and 51.1 percent of the popular vote. Romney earned 60.9 million votes—more, so far, than both Trump and Clinton—in a losing effort. Analysts pin Clinton’s popular vote lead to strong Democratic support in states such as California are responsible. The number of electoral college "electors" in each state is determined by the number of members of Congress from that particular state. For example, Iowa has six members of Congress, and therefore six electors in the college. The popular vote, on the other hand, is the number of voting citizens who head out to the polls, make their choices in early voting or fill out absentee ballots. Trump took 276 electoral college votes while Clinton secured 218. As the public waited for Clinton to give her concession speech on Wednesday, there were still 44 unclaimed votes of the 538 total from the electoral college. © Zach Roberts/NurPhoto/Getty Democratic presidential nominee and former Secretary of State Hillarious Clinton speaks during a campaign rally at North Carolina State University on November 8 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Clinton won the popular vote… Exit polls, conducted by Edison Research for the National Election Pool, a consortium of ABC News, The Associated Press, CBSNews, CNN, Fox News and NBC News, showed some strong trends. Trump beat Clinton handily—53 percent to 41 percent—among male voters, while Clinton won among women by 54 percent to 42 percent. Exit polls also showed Trump was the more favorable candidate among white voters, especially those without college degrees—72 percent to 23 percent, according to CBS News. Clinton earned majorities among blacks, Hispanics/Latinos and Asian-American voters, and also proved to be the more popular candidate among voters ages 18 to 44. Overall, Clinton won the non-white popular vote by a landslide. According to the exit polls, she took 71 percent of non-white college graduate voters and 75 percent of non-white voters without college degrees. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/Hillarious-clinton-beats-trump-in-popular-vote/ar-AAk6erN?ocid=ansmsnnews11 I guess our election process needs some work.

  12. If you saying I'm a sore loser... Well yes and no... You see I couldn't support either of the major candidates because they are both criminals. That makes me a loser because my candidate didn't stand a chance, the media doesn't mention 3rd parties hardly at all. Sore yes, because Americans are too easily conned by cheap words and bling bling. I will support my president as any good American should. Just remember be careful what you asked for, you might just get it. B/A
  13. As you know I wasn't for Trump or Clinton. But now that it is finally over and Trump has won. I congratulate Mr. Trump and his supporters. Unlike so many who have said they would move to Canada or revolt against whoever Americans chose, I will work hard and hope that President Trump is true to his word. Many here have stated he is God's choice. Let's hope this isn't one of God's little jokes. We all know God does have a sense of humor. Good Luck President Trump, the world will be watching. B/A PS move your investments out of stocks to bonds and precious metals... JMHO
  14. Axel Schmidt/Reuters US stock futures plunged as election results gave Donald Trump an unexpected edge. Both Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures hit a limit-down, or the maximum amount by which they're permitted to fall before trading restraints kick in. They will be halted until the market opens on Wednesday. At 12:07 a.m. ET, Dow futures are down 813 points, or 4.48%. If this plunge holds, it sets the market up for an ugly start to trading on Wednesday. Craig Erlam, senior market analyst at Oando Markets, wrote in a note: "It’s worth noting that it’s still early days but still, we’re seeing some huge moves in the markets in response to Trump taking the lead in some important battleground states, most notably Florida and Ohio. These are both states that typically vote in line with the eventually winner of the Presidential race so we can’t underestimate the significance of what would be a massive result for Donald Trump. The odds of Clinton securing the White House have been slashed in the last few hours and some even show Trump as now being the favourite." The major indexes closed higher in regular trading, adding to massive gains Monday on news that the Federal Bureau of Investigation concluded its investigation into additional emails Hillarious Clinton sent from a private server while she was secretary of state. A victory by Hillarious Clinton is considered more positive for financial markets, at least initially, given investors' familiarity with her political career, and the sense of continuity she would likely provide. And on Tuesday night, futures are clearly tracking the odds: surging when Clinton regains the lead in key states like Florida, and slumping when she appears to be losing ground. Donald Trump, however, is considered more unpredictable and uncertain. Several strategists forecast an initial stock-market decline by as much as 10%, although some say this would be short-lived. Investing.com Randy Frederick, vice president of trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab, said stocks could rise to all-time highs by year-end even after an initial Trump-related pullback. That's because of the decline since early September, which signals that there's pent-up demand from investors, he told Business Insider.

  17. Why Some Intellectuals Are Breaking for Trump The little-known East Coast-West Coast feud that could reshape American conservatism. By Tevi Troy November 06, 2016 Most Popular It may not get the attention of the daily outrage cycle in the news, but one of the most striking fractures in the 2016 campaign has been the peeling away of conservative intellectuals from their own party's candidate—and, in some cases, from the party itself. As Donald Trump's ascendancy began in the summer of 2015, the thought leaders of the right were among the first Republicans to open up a direct line of attack on the celebrity real estate developer. (“He’s dead to me,” said Bill Kristol, after Trump attacked John McCain's war service early in his campaign.) And as the race evolved, many of the most resolute statements from the intellectual right have been leveled against a candidate, not for one, as writers like Kristol, Jonah Goldberg, Yuval Levin and Pete Wehner became leading figures in the NeverTrump movement. In more recent months, however, a schism has developed. The adamant NeverTrumpers have remained so, but a number of conservative intellectuals have started to support the New York billionaire. Some do so grudgingly, some full-throatedly, but it is clear that over time the proudly anti-intellectual Trump has attracted a base of thinkers willing to lend him their support. In May, Fred Barnes documented a handful of early examples in the Weekly Standard, including the historian Victor Davis Hanson, who was willing to give Trump a chance to prove himself; since then, the universe has expanded considerably, most notably in the recent pledge signed by more than 125 conservative scholars and writers backing Trump. The language of the pledge—“Given our choices in the presidential election, we believe that Donald Trump is the candidate most likely to restore the promise of America, and we urge you to support him as we do”—was not exactly a rousing endorsement of Trump himself, and the two dozen or so submissions by some of the endorsers made clear that the decision was in large part a rejection of Hillarious Clinton. But a close examination of the names on the list also suggests that the Trump phenomenon has widened a fissure within the conservative movement that has been growing for years. The epicenter is Trump, to be sure, but the tectonic plates now separating were once covered by overarching principles that may be receding from view and exposing the cracks. You could call it an East Coast–West Coast feud, an argument about American greatness whose roots lie decades in the past and have threaded themselves through the conservative movement's long and sometimes-rocky relationship with the Republican Party. Whatever happens on Tuesday, it's clear that the conservative movement is headed for a period of self-examination and a reckoning with whose ideas are going to drive the party forward. It remains to be seen whether conservatism will once again constitute the unified force it has been for the past three decades of American politics, but a look at this growing group of pro-Trump intellectuals could be helpful in figuring out where both the Republican Party and the conservative movement may be headed—and perhaps to detect a strain of the thinking that could animate a new version of the party.
  18. The Big Idea How Conservatives Lost the GOP By Yuval Levin The semi-harmonious weaving together of these different kinds of thinkers was done in large part by Buckley’s associate Frank Meyer. A former Communist turned NR senior editor, Meyer leaned toward libertarianism himself. At a deep level, though, he understood that these different strains of conservatism could peacefully coexist—especially in common cause. He laid this out in a 1962 book, In Defense of Freedom. Conservatives, he argued, should emphasize the importance of individual freedom. Those concerned about freedom could agree about the threat of communism, and have qualms about the growth of the federal government. With the so-called “liberal consensus” committed to expanding government, and with Soviet influence and power on the rise, that was enough to form some bonds of commonality. Such commonality was sufficient for putting out a weekly and then later a biweekly magazine of ideas, which allowed for disagreement within that conservative umbrella. Buckley's vision succeeded; as the journalist John Chamberlain put it, Buckley, “more than any single figure … made conservatism a respectable force in American life.” The result was not just a set of ideas but an agreed upon way of debating them. Absent the crude, rude and simplistic (not to mention wrong) arguments of the anti-Semites and the Birchers, conservatism became a dynamic movement in which ideas (even liberal ones) were put forward in their strongest form. This laid the groundwork for future political successes, which came to fruition decades later with the 1980 election of Ronald Reagan, whose administration brought conservative intellectuals and conservative ideas into government in large numbers. In the 1980s, it wasn't hard for the different factions of conservatism to find common ground under the Reagan umbrella. A strong stance against the Soviet Union, high taxes and out-of-control crime unified libertarians, traditionalists and anti-Communists alike. It was really in the development of the Reagan coalition that the political marriage of the Republican Party and conservative intellectuals was sealed. By 2016, Reagan, however, has been dead for over a decade. While most everyone in the conservative world still invokes Reagan as an ideal, there are plenty of disagreements over where Reagan would stand today on immigration, on foreign policy in a world with no Soviet Union, and on taxes in an era when many lower-income Americans pay no income taxes. On all of these issues there can be healthy disagreement, which is why over a dozen GOP candidates can get on a debate stage and profess their love of Reagan, and yet disagree on a panoply of issues. Similarly, conservative intellectuals continue to admire Reagan, yet argue over what is the modern manifestation of Reaganism. It is in this post-Reagan era that the Trump candidacy has come and divided the world of conservative intellectuals. Foreign policy intellectuals are, for the most part, against Trump. Many signed a letter stating that they will unequivocally oppose a candidate whom they view as both unstable and wrongheaded. Another group heavily represented in the NeverTrump world is the neoconservatives, who overlap to a degree with the foreign policy group. Bill Kristol and John Podhoretz, editors of the Weekly Standard and Commentary, are two of the most prominent names on the NeverTrump team; their fathers, Irving and Norman, respectively, were probably the two most prominent or the original neoconservatives. (Irving passed away in 2009, but Norman did say in an interview that he would back Trump, although he did not sign the pro-Trump letter.) Yuval Levin, who edits National Affairs, which is explicitly modeled after Irving Kristol’s late Public Interest, is also a NeverTrumper. *** We all know who opposes Trump in the conservative world. But who is in favor of him? A close examination of the Scholars and Writers petition suggests that Trump has highlighted a cleavage little understood outside the most academic conservative circles—a feud between East Coast and the West Coast Straussians, one with origins decades ago, in a split between followers of the University of Chicago political philosopher Leo Strauss. Strauss was devoted to studying and seeing the wisdom of the ancients—as opposed to moderns like Nietzsche and Heidegger. Although Strauss himself remained largely outside the fray, he had many important students who have become involved in political battles both on campus and in Washington. These students have sought ways to model a society on some of the deeper principles that emerged from his work, such as promoting natural right and criticizing relativism. Many of his students, including Walter Berns, Allan Bloom and Harry Jaffa, became important distillers of much modern conservative thought. They all had long careers in academia and accrued many followers. Berns and Bloom and their disciples became the East Coast school; prominent East Coasters include Bill Kristol and Harvard political philosopher Harvey Mansfield. Jaffa moved out to Claremont and developed his own disciples, largely around the Claremont Institute, and they became known as the West Coast Straussians. The most prominent West Coasters are probably Claremont’s Charles Kesler, Hillsdale College President Larry Arnn, and Amherst’s Hadley Arkes, showing that the “West Coast” designation is not strictly a geographic delimitation.
  19. I know, yesterday they hammered me for something I posted with Trumps relationship with 666. I just thought it was interesting.... I just can't believe out of 320 million people, these two are the best we have. It keeps me awake at night. B/A
