He may think he's sincere but he's just another huckster trying to cash in on people's fears and anger. He seems to have been booked for many speaking engagements on the kook circut because they're stupid enough to buy his books. It's a living!
Everything's a distraction any more.
It's all about getting after Obama. Repugs are sore losers, even if they did create the mess. The elephant won't forget. They still haven't gotten over Cuba for God's sake!!!
So of course if Obama says it's red, they're going to say it's white then blah blah blow steam and ultimately it's some shade of shady sepia..... just because they have to get in their two cents and keep their ratings. This confuses everyone and the Repugs are happy their unending campaigns of misinformation have succeeded.
Not everyone has Hillary Clinton's balls after all.
sounds like an oxymoron to me.
Now he knows what it's like to be a regular schmoe at the company. Work your ass off 10-14 hours a day for a wage that barely pays your bills because the people at the top have decided you aren't worth more.
Now Mr. VP the people at the top have decided you aren't worth shit either. Turn around and we'll screw you before we stab you in the back. How many times in your 11 years at AIG did you have to do that to an employee in the name of your precious board and corporate sanctity?????? Payback is a bitch when you've worked your way up to the top of the ladder only to have your own pour boiling oil on you.
Corporate America could give a rat's ass about anyone but it's board- those all knowing all seeing assholes at the top who are the real culprits here. We have already seen how much they REALLY care about protecting stockholders other than themselves.......
Hey, as long as they pay his expenses, it beats having to actually do any plumbing, if he's really even capable of that.... He's just another media whore trying to avoid day labor.
Anyone?
So what does that tell you about that state? Fuck Texas!
BUT, it will certainly help fill the tax coffers of states, towns and counties. It will stop prison overcrowding and ease the restraints on that budget, and if those who write the laws are on the ball, they also provide extra money for drug counseling and drug courts-things which ARE proven to work.
Hemp also needs to be legalized but we'll see if Dow chemical, Monsanto, ADM, and the other bio giants would even allow that to be considered.
Fox News could give a rat's ass about the rule of law and telling the truth. They've proven that during the during the Bush years.
They want numbers. Ratings, baby. Ratings bring in the advertising revenue. They give O'Reilly free reign and will do so until someone gets hurt or killed. One day one of these producers will be hunting down some Texan or another Floridian who has a concealed weapon permit and someone will get hurt.
Only then will they change tactics, but they will still be intrusive as long as it gets ratings and ad revenue. Go after the sponsors, tell them you're not going to tolerate their support of such hate. They'll back down and either pressure Fox to change it's tune or they'll do the honorable thing like UPS and drop their sponsorship.
These rat bastards were happy to let Bushco violate the Constitution every way but loose. Get an African American in office and watch them arm themselves to defend the country from their worst nightmare. It is all about race folks. They should be screaming at the top of their lungs about the banks, turning over police cars, and demanding the rich pay for this. But Nooooooo, in their mind,we have a 'darkie' in the White House and Grand Daddy is spinning in his KKK grave. What's left of their white honor must be avenged. It's disgusting.
Great little story. It was nice to have it confirmed that he's all dog and pony show. The sad part is that millions of very stupid people take him dead seriously and THEY inflict these viewpoints on the rest of us.
Next time he gives you the room key/credit card get a Chanel or Louis Vuitton (make sure it's FRENCH) bag to go with those sunglasses and to ease the pain, then flash it with a smile to the counter person when you politely say "I could give a rat's ass about you too".
I still support telling his sponsors he's got to stop the extremest hate and racist banter. We don't need any more of that crap.
Just like everything else, the numbers will be blown out of porportion. If a real legit group shows up to protest the war, Fox and the media lowball the numbers and label them fringe kooks.
Since this 'frenzy' is stirred up by the PR gurus at places like Fox, the numbers will be greatly exaggerated.
It's a bunch of unemployed goons mixed in with the usual well meaning Libertarians trying out for 'Let's Make A Deal' on Fox. Maybe they'll see themselves on TV looking just like the guy in the Free Credit Report.com commercial!
