SINCE ANYONE THAT IS NOT A REPUBLICAN IS A LIBERAL, LIBERAL RESPONSE HERE (IF ONE NOT GIVEN ALREADY)
Wow, where can I start?
Your assessment is rather flawed since there wasno reason to bomb Syria according to
the Republican led House of RepsHarry Reid.That alone allowedISIS to be what itis today because Obama pulled out of Iraq for political reasons (against the warnings of the former president).AllI haveseenbeen blind over the last 6-7 yearsis RepublicansI am acting childish over the fact they didn't keep power or get their way to the point theyI threw the country deeper into recession and a downgrade of our capabilities due tosequestrationmy own ignorance. Requiring something of this President that they never required of any other.Criticizing over raising of the national debt when for 8 years that was all that was being done under Bush. When someone wants to do it under a Democrat it's let's sound the alarm!!!!
Yet what I see is a group of people playing this like it were some sort of football game, who cares what they do if they are my team...
You and I agree with the firearms. I could care less about someone's sexual preference, not my business. Your relationship with whatever you worship, don't care, I am not God, can't judge your afterlife situation. Yet when it comes to not taking responsibility for the actions that they take, for blatantly lying for saying one thing one week and then flip-flop the next because you don't like someone? Yeah, those are not my so called values that
RepublicansDemocRATS keep talking about. In fact even the values change week by week except for the I hateObama Busheverything but me.Funny how we are supposed to not criticize a President during war time. Funny how it is that none of you are not willing to go over there and fight if it came to it...(I was there from 2003-2012, Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan). Maybe we should bring back the draft so that you can be more objective about all of this, maybe not. Yet my independent self that voted for a Gore that year supported the President during wartime as we went to Afghanistan. I grudgingly supported but had questions about Iraq yet never would I of supported the sabotage of America by being as extreme as shutting down a government during wartime. Especially if such an actin would cause a downgrade of our credit rating.
Okay edited your post a little.
However, what I find offensive is this statement right here: "Funny how it is that none of you are not willing to go over there and fight if it came to it...(I was there from 2003-2012, Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan)." You make the biggest assumption that totally shows your stupidity (not ignorance). However, you never said what you did over there. Were you a paper pusher? Were you on the front lines everyday? Anyone in the service between the dates of an active conflict is considered to have served during a hostile action even if they were not directly deployed inside that theater. So just because you were there doesn't mean you were actually there. Get my meaning?
There are many individuals on this website that have fought/served for this country as we on the website are of all ages. Just because they don't say it doesn't mean it never happened. Let me explain something, I would have been in Gulf War I had I not had an accident in the line of duty. Yes I had an very serious accident that almost caused me to be paralyzed for life and could have very well cost my life. Because I had an accident during training while the country was not at war, was my service to this country any less than yours? The answer to that is no. The reason is because at any moment at any second any person who is in the service can be called onto to perform their duties in a hostile action. I have seen vets who had a car accident while lollygagging around off duty get service connected disability. The conundrum here comes into play that a active duty person is never really off duty. One other thing I know individuals who enlisted within days of 9-11 come back with missing limbs and never to be right in the mind ever again.
To hear you claim because you went to the three theater of operations you are entitled is a farce. You exploit this. You have an entitlement mentality that is ruining this country. I never asked to have my accident but I knew the risks and I would take them over and over again every day of my life even if it did eventually cost me my life. That sir is what a patriot is all about. We do it because we love our country and take pride in our country not because we expect to get back from this country of ours. We do it to keep this country free. So either ejumucate from other sources (other than CNN, ABC, CBS, MSNBC and any other MSM) yourself on the likes of Harry Reid (the number of bills from the House he has refused to even come to the floor of the Senate and I am not just talkng Obamacare and Nazi Pehosi (pass it then read it) or keep whining and complaining,
boohoo I went to war and now I am entitled to everything for free! Sir you are no more entitled to what the Constitution grants you, life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Happiness is not an entitlement btw the entitlement is the journey to get happiness. All too often this is confused so I thought I would help you out. Your next ejumucation is to read the Federalist Papers, and I mean all of them.
Ignorance is curable, stupidity is a disease you can never cure.
Exit, stage left!

Wow must wonder how you feel about Favre? lol We won't mention him again in cheesehead country.
Adam you can only hold it in only so long, then like a dam that has done all it can, it must burst forth. What did it for me was 9-11.
I have always maintained 0bummer was bad for this country. Lost a few friends over it too. Now they have come around and actually apologized. I respect the office of the presidency but will never respect a person who does everything in their power to destroy this once great country.
As to the post above that Obama admitted to the fact he was muslim, you need to read more of his works. He doesn't have to admit anything because if it quacks and waddles like one, then by golly yep it is one. One only needs to read the one line he wrote in his book (paraphrasing) : If things go bad, he will side with the muslims. That is all I need to know he has never and will never be for the country he swore an oath (like what 5 times before he finally got it right?) to protect.

URGENT: Iraqi Army deserters to be re-registered by Central Government
(IraqiNews.com) The New York Times reported today that Iraqi army has launched a campaign to re-register soldiers and military personnel who deserted their units and positions in an attempt to rebuild the army to confront ISIS.
The American newspaper added that although the Iraqi government is currently training and equipping new volunteer forces, they urgently need experienced soldiers even if that requires opening enrollment to deserters.
Data from the Iraqi Army indicates that more than six thousand soldiers have been registered through this re-enrollment campaign in Kurdistan while more than 5 thousand troops have been registered in Baghdad.
And a little good news (I Guess)

Remember Christianity during the Reformation and during the Dark Ages. If you didn't believe then you were tortured, (drawn and quartered, put on the Rack and other pleasantries) and killed. All in the name of Christ. No religion is exempt in the face of zealotry and fanaticism.
You can quote the Reformation during the Dark Ages because there is a history of that period of time put down in books. History of Islam has been revised so many times most don't even know it anymore. While Christianity has moved on and reformed so that these practices are no longer being practiced today, you fail to make the correlation between Christianity and Islam in this manner. This is why. Islam has never reformed towards the stopping of practices that took place during the time of their prophet and some would even say time before their prophet. Crucifixion, while attributed to Romans is more associated with Christianity, is still practiced in the ME today. Christianity was separated from the state. Islam has always controlled the state and has never let its grip up from this control. The Dark Ages in Islam means something totally different than the Western Civilization Dark Ages. Reformation during the dark ages in Western Civilization was brought about by invaders into Christian lands but it went amok and eventually it turned onto its own people. You will hear that the Renaissance was brought about by Islam, this is furthest from the truth. Renaissance was brought about by Spain freeing itself from Islamic rule. Islam will claim all the great inventions but what they don't tell you is that Islam conquered these people converted them to Islam or killed them and assimilated that technology as their own. Not much has come out of the ME except for oil since the 18th century.
Should you attempt to say that well the USA stole lands, make sure you know which lands Islam stole on the Arabian Pennisula because I can start naming them off. The USA has dealt with Islam since its inception, the Barbary Pirates were muslim. Not many knows the connection in the Marine Anthem to Islam in this tidbit of our national history.
Like I said Millie, Christianity reformed, Islam has not. There is a cry for Islam to reform, but this is falling on deaf ears because so-called moderate muslims will not speak out for fear of being called an apostate or even worse, have committed shirk.

Sisi for Clinton: What is happening in Iraq "conspiracy"
- Agency eighth day
- September 23, 2014, 10:49
- No comments
- 12 Reading
((Eighth day))
Egyptian newspaper revealed on Monday that the "Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi told the former American President Bill Clinton angrily Egypt from Washington, noting that the Clinton-Sisi said that" the Egyptians have a sense that what is happening in Iraq and some countries in the region "conspiracy."
The newspaper said the "seventh day" in a report seen by the agency ((eighth day)) that "President al-Sisi spoke with Clinton and his wife as a link to the American administration the current, and explain the situation now in Egypt," he said, adding that "the Egyptians angry with the American position, They have a sense that what is happening in Iraq, Syria and Libya plot, without American officials to come out to clarify the situation.
The newspaper added that "Sisi stressed on Bill and Hillarious Clinton, urged the necessity of the current administration in Washington to address the Egyptians transparently, with the assurance that the revolution June 30 crossed the momentum for sweeping popular, must interact with him and Washington equally. Ended 6
Umm guess Hitlary just hasn't caught on yet. Hilarious Clinton will do until then. -
Supposedly they only have about 800 in their group, so I don't see how they can have any kind of "iron grip" on Iraq.
And what happened to their Toyota trucks? Is that a Ford "patrol car" now?
Seems like something is rotten in the state of Iraq.....
800? Try more like 30K and growing. They are drafting now which means they aren't asking nicely anymore. Submit or die; its the Islamic way.
ISIS looks like they are settling in. Looks like they are going to be there a while. Why not! They know that the Obama is supporting them and won’t attack them, they are buds. ISIS knows without Interior and Defense minister that they are also safe from Iraq. As long as there is infighting in the GOI, ISIS is safe. Obama /CIA was supporting them in Syria to oust Assad. If you noticed he calls them ISIL not ISIS. He (Obama) also instructed his staff to call them ISIL. I’m not sure if there are any other agendas that the CIA is cooking up, but I wouldn’t put it past them.
Please see and read current articles on the meaning of L in ISIL. Its a significant distinction from just Syria, which does not include Isreal. The L means Levant. Some Say the S in ISIS means Syria whilst others say al-Sham which is Levant in translation to English. Levant is the countries of Iraq, Syria and the countries along the coast down to and including Egypt. ISIL is this fashion is trying to do what the Palestinians are doing trying to form a country from out of nothing. There was never a Palestine nor was there ever a Levant as countries that existed anytime in the history of the world. Palestine was a Roman and Ottoman state and not a country. Levant was a biblical geographic description for a certain region in that part of the world. Levant was never a country. A country would mean self rule government, coinage and currency, borders in which have been recognized by other countries to name a few. Levant nor Palestine were ever countries. However, they are cities in the USA.

Looks like a certain VP wants to become a VIP PM. If they have three VP's how does succession by assassination work? Here its Prez < VP < Speaker of the House then its sketchy from there.
If you can't get elected, heck get a position that puts you in line and take out all of those in front of you. Voi Ci! Instant Prez! (well in this case PM)

While the picture should be seen, I feel that some kind of warning should be placed in the title before opening this thread up. So as we don't open this thread unknowingly and in front of those who may not or should not see this. I saw the video of Daniel Pearl beheading shortly after it came out. For me, one is one too many. We cannot fight these people in a reactionary way. We need to fight them on their idealogies and in places where they have become influential. That means telling people that the so-called ROP is not really a ROP and showing them this and other videos. I stated a while back a website to watch was called memri.org. It continues to be at the forefront of showing how foul and despicable these people really are. No one hijacked Islam. Islam hijacked the world. No such thing as a moderate muslim. Women in Islam are not given rights and anyone who thinks so is an utter fool. The real war on women is coming from Islam.

This administration is all about perception and lack of action as evidenced by the hastag campaigns that have come out recently. When the whiner in charge doesn't get his way he circumvents the Constitution he swore to uphold. To everyone's dismay, the split government producing very little legislation is how the founding fathers intended for the government to work. This crap, we want it now and be daamned how we get it is ridiculous. Quit exploiting the children and quit exploiting the wealthy and elderly to remain in power. What's going to happen when the baby boomers are gone? DemoRats are planning for the future, they are importing the votes. It's interesting to note that for the first time since before WWII that the average age of the working person has fallen and is in a downward slope in this country (per Bloomberg, today). If the nth generation doesn't get off their lazy behinds and they don't keep subscribing to the entitlement mentality that swept across the globe, then this country will fall the way the Romans fell so very long ago. How did communist Russia fare? How is England and Canada doing with their health care? How is the single-payer VA system working out?
This country will fall in one-fifth the time that it took Rome to fall. How's that for hope and change?

I wanted to add that the "Common Sense Philosophy" continues to bring me back to this post by PIF. If you read each and any of these posts and dissect it paragraph by paragraph while applying common sense, you can usually stop reading before you get to the end.
Wow that is too much work. Kind of like listening to the weatherman (woman) and taking readings of barometric pressure and other stuff. I prefer to look at my grass, if it brown it needs rain. Is it raining? Nope continue to hope for rain, go about my day. Is it raining? Yes. Great, Continue to go about my day.
Things are so much better when you are not in a position of control to just sit back and relax and when things happen, they happen (or don't).
Don't worry be happy!

Hey donlop
Thanks for the response! I, like Snowglobe, am interested in the Forex. I am interested in using mechanisms like I use for stock trading. If this is possible, I will like to investigate active trading strategies like I am able to use with stocks akin to level II trading. I will reach out to Snowglobe as if seems we are on the same quest.
Blessings,
Moneysoon I started researching this back in April before I came here. The only caveat I have never traded a day in my life. I started out with a Safari Books Online and perused their selection. I then set after how to learn how to trade and was met with various techniques like Fibonacci and Pivots etc. I searched for training into this as well. The car salesmen abound. The training is not cheap either. I finally settled on a company that would work best for me. I looked into several brokers and I settled on one mainly because of the offer I received with the training company I settled with. Currently, I am back testing the trade plans I have been given. They have a live trafing room but I am not really prepared for that. I am only trading Forex until I can trade Futures. While its true you spend a few hours a day trading but that is if you daytrade. Swing trading I spend no more than fifteen minutes in the morning and fifteen minutes at night . A majority of that time is just entering trades. You can get into automated trading if you want or you can trade manually. You can use basically whatever trading platform you want provided the broker is compatible. Most brokers have their own. Personally I don' t like trading individual stocks and prefer the futures and indexes. You can trade almost 24 hours a day but with everything there is advantages withtrading certain times of the day. For me usually 830Am until noon then around 1pm til 4PM works best for daytrading. You need to backtest to find what works for you. Hope this helps. If you want names of companies I didn't mention I am sure there is a way to get them to you. Without me trying to be a mouthpiece for them.
However since you posted this back in June hope you are much further alongi in your research.

Bad form! You are starting this "monkey" mess and the racial connotation it carries all over again. If you don't like the POTUS, say so. You have that right. But why insight a confrontation on yourself? Do you have a martyr complex?
Nelg would you have preferred me to call him the Manchurian POSoTUS? Oh wait Sydney Poitier is the lead in the orignal movie Manchurian Candidate. Sydney Poitier is not white, so calling someone not white a Manchurian Candidate/President would be racist (by the logic given before)? Call the president what you will, respect the office and you don't have to respect the man. Any enlisted person will tell you that.
Next you will be telling me you would vote for a woman candidate for president named Elizabeth Warren because she claims to be of Native American descent. And because I am against her (one because she is not native american as it was proven to be so and two she used it to garner special minority status..which means she is deceitful and lies) that would make me racist against native americans eh? I called Clinton (your choice) a monkey in the white house. Am I racist for saying that? The point is it is just an expression to denote a person who like the Manchurian Candidate is nothing more than an idiot on a string being played by someone else. I can think of about a hundred other names to denote this very specific idea. He is a Pinnochio. Guess that would be racist against Italians.
Throughout history leaders have been described in very simpleton terminolgy to denote they are nothing more than puppets on a string being led by some unknown person or group of people. It speaks to the leadership of the individual not the race of the individual. I will continue to call those in office monkies who have no leadership abilities no matter their race. I could care less about some cartoon that came out during the Great Depression. Or some movie that came out in the 70's that cast a particular person for a lead role in a fictional movie. If we based our moral ethics on a political satire cartoon or some fictional movie then its a sad state of affairs for all those who do.
This in the end is political correctness gone amuk. Just look at Ferguson, MO to see the bright shining example of this.
People need to stop being brainwashed and stop being sheeple. Maybe they should visit a Holiday Inn Express!

Here are a couple of questions to ponder... if a bank outside of the CBI has dinar, is that dinar said to be in circulation?
If that currency is said to be in circulation and each bank according to the CBI is required to have 250 billion dinar, then how in the world, according to this article, is there only 4 billion dinar in circulation?
Either someone is doing fuzzy wuzzy mathematics here or someone already lopped off the zeros from the numbers in the article! Even then 15 banks would still have more than 4 billion dinars given each bank only had 2.5 billion dinars (accounting for lopster mathematics). While the numbers may seem incongruous, I think I will just wait for the numbers to be pulled from the magician's hat . You know when the magician states Abracadabra swami salami RV time baby!

This is all over the net.
Excerpt from Al jazeera
Sunni politicians in Iraq have suspended talks to form a new government, in protest of a mass killing inside a mosque in the northeastern province of Diyala.
In a statement on Saturday, Salim al-Jabouri, speaker of the Iraqi parliament, denounced as "terrorists" the Shia armed group suspected of killing at least 73 people inside a Sunni mosque .
Its also in other news venues.

"will be reduced to the size of a quarter" That would be akin to taking a 25,000 dinar note and stating/saying "It is now worth 6,250 dinars!" ....but what is the value of 6,250 dinars? Do they always have to speak in riddles???? Simply stated, 25,000 dinars will soon be worth 6,250 dinars...that will not enhance the dinar unless each of those 6,250 dinars are actually worth more.... riddles ....... : /
The article states "the quarter" not "a quarter". This could be a translation error who knows. However, my hypothesis on this (which could be absolutley 100% wrong) is that "the quarter" is the author is talking about is "the quarter of dinars left in circulation" So if we took three-quarters of the dinars out of circulation and are left with the quarter of dinars in circulation, this could (hypothetically) enhance the rate by multiplying the rate by .25 (a quarter). This would the leave the dinar rate at 1:279 which would be an enhancement. "the quarter" plays to the the quarter of the dinars left in circulation not a quarter of the stated dinar note. Also the drawdown of notes from circulation would take time and as such the enhancement of the rate would also follow suit as dinars are taken out of circulation. This would be a final rate once all the notes have been withdrawn from circulation; not an overnight rate. More of a goal rate than anything else.
(This is my opinion and is hypothetical. I could be absolutely 100% wrong.)

The article did not say "a" quarter but "the" quarter. The semantics play a big part here. If you took the current excange rate of 1166 and multiplied that by .25 you would enhance the rate of the dinar to a rate of 1:279. This is all speculation on my part. "the quarter" comes into pay by the reference from taking three-quarters of the dinar out of circulation thus leaving the quarter of the dinars in circulation. So the reference here is "the quarter of dinars left in circulation". Law of Supply and Demand comes into play. Less Supply more demand the price increases for that product. I am merely hypothesizing and could be sooo totally wrong. But should this transpire, the dinar could go at a rate of 1:279 by the time this is through (1166*.25 = 279). The mileage may vary on this and I could be 100% absolutely wrong.

Achmed the Terrorist is the dummy of Jeff Dunham. He has other dummies like the grumpy old man (forgot his name) and Jalepeno on a Stick. The most notorious one that Jeff Dunham started off with was the purple wonder called Peanut. By far, Peanut is the crowd favorite when seeing a Jeff Dunham show. His foray into stand up was much more successful tha his foray into his Comedy Central television shows which he quickly abadoned after losing his wife in a divorce.

He is only designated to form a cabnet that has to have a absolute
Majority
What ever that means
Half + one to me is an absolute majority
You are right a Majority is usually half + 1 of either those physically voting or of the membership body as a whole. Different parliamentary procedures dictate this on how a majority vote is considered..
An Absolute Majority is defined per politic body. The Senate in the US has a 2/3 majority for some votes. This could be considered an absolute majority in all aspects of the law.
Terms and definitions are usually spelled out in either the bylaws for that governing body or by their constitution. The US Constitution spells out several types of majority votes. For example an Amendment to the Constitution has to be ratified by 2/3 of the states. This could and would be considered an Absolute Majority for the ratification of an Amendment to the Constitution. For those who think the Bill of Rights had it easy, it wasn't until well after Prez G. Washington was out of office before the final Bill of Right was ratified by 2/3 of the states at that time.
On the other hand an Absolute Majority could be a much higher percentage of those voting either physically or by the body at large. However an Absolute Majority would come very close to a Unanimous vote.
So all in all an Absolute Majority falls somewhere in between a Majority vote and a Unanimous vote. Hopefully that clears it up for you. For specifics you have to look at the exact voting requirements for the passage of whatever needs to be passed.

HAHAHA!! By the same token..Obama's numbers aren't lower because he has had to deal with a repub Congress who stated explicitly that their only objective was to block Obama.
Great?? Not hardly.
OMG now I have heard it all. This sums up the whole conversation here. A "republican congress" would mean that the republicans control both the House of Representatives and Senate. A democrat Congress would mean the democrats control both the house of representatives and senate. The Senate Minority Leader, the Honorable Mitch McConnell, said the objective was to block Obama. A Minority Leader in the Senate is from the party that does not control the Senate because they do not have 51 sitting Senators. The fact here is this, the first two years Obama had carte blanche with a Democrat Congress. They could have done anything, instead they gave us only the stupid health care fiasco we now have. The founding fathers purposely created the Constitution for times when Congress was divided and gridlocked. This only allows major legislation to get passed. Read up on the Federalist papers if you disagree, Also go back to Civics 101. The President whines when he doesn't get his way. Too bad so sad.
Also you need to learn English and the meaning of the contraction "aren't" (are not). You stated that Obama's numbers are lower not because of a republican congress. So his numbers must be lower because of his policies outright suck not because of the republican congress..
Ignorance is curable; Stupidity is a disease you can never cure. Case in point.
