29 "dimensions"
[Read the article: Men on eHarmony seem obsessed with women who are "clean"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]eHarmony is not scientific, it is Snake Oil.
You can't even search on eHarmony, only look at what they search for you. For all I know they just throw me every profile in the area and let the other steps like the can't stands/must haves, and other crap be the weed out factor.
Where is the data and research behind the construct he is using? I can make the same thing, it is most likely nothing more than a multiple discriminant analysis with 29 variables. If you believe that eHarmony has a valid and reliable construct to match couples, I have a bridge in MN you might be interested in.
I tried eHarmony and got a book in the mail from that creepy old guy. It is all anecdotes.

What I heard
[Read the article: What you missed while watching the new "Bionic Woman"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]All I heard last night was that the solution to everything is bigger and badder government and more bureaucracy, with little more thought than that.
Both sides are myopic, they only argue about how they want to spend your money and how much more they want to tax you to do it.
The dollar is in its death throes, worth less and less everyday, and all 18 of the 19 candidates do is sit there and talk about how they want more of your tanking dollars and how they want to keep squeezing.
These are all the same establishment jerk offs that think a good deterrent to "terrorism" is strip searching former generals and old ladies while they take private jets everywhere and get a free pass from the systems they are implementing.

Oh, and of course
[Read the article: What you missed while watching the new "Bionic Woman"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]And you can't forget the message that all those AIPAC funded candidates were sure to get across:
Israel comes fist, even if its policies and our 100% support of everything it does are a threat to our national security. Don't worry Israel, the US is willing to send thousands of its teenagers to their death to fight your wars.
The interests of Israel obviously come before the security interests of the US. The candidates need the balls to say no to the special interests and say what real patriots are saying:
"I hope Israel flourishes, I just don't think it is worth an American life or an American Dollar."
Agreed. Too bad the people running for president would rather send American Kids to die for Zionists and oil then protect and secure their own country.

Maybe Thompson's wife can answer for him
[Read the article: Fred Thompson: Refreshingly honest or just uninformed?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]LOL at the Great White Hype Fred Thompson. The Fred fans are getting a hard lesson in the difference between perception and reality. He puts people to sleep while they wait for an applause line that never comes. He announces his presidency on Leno and when he starts talking about Foreign Policy you hear nothing but mouse farts and cricket chirps from the audience. Thompson is boring, lazy, slow, but his biggest problem is that he promotes the Neoconservative's Big Lie, i.e. "Islamofascism". He is just another Israel-first, bomb bomb Iran Warmonger fleecing the sheeple on behalf of the robber barons.
Maybe Thompson should consult his CFR Field Manual for the "correct" answer to all of those questions. Whatever keeps the debate on wedge issues and away from the raging Class War that he and his elitist peers are winning.
All the influence the lobbies have over the system, and the Thompson True Believer Zombies want a Super-Lobbyist as president, even with Walt/Mearsheimer's book about the power of AIPAC recently being published. What a joke.
Vote for Thompson for more of the same: Profits for the Military Industrial Complex and fighting wars for other countries. Don't expect him to address the Class War, because if the American people turn it around and start winning the Class War, it would mean that Thompson and his ilk would be losing.

All they are doing is splitting the war vote even more
[Read the article: Religious right may blackball Giuliani]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This is silly. If the religious right are so powerful then why don't they just gather their strength and vote in their Primaries? Besides, don't they have VP Huckster to flock behind while he drags them to the voting booth?
I watched the Values Voter Debate, I also watched the commentary afterward. If they want a true pro-life candidate they would back Ron Paul, or even the Huckster. The "problem" is not that either are pro-life, but that Paul is anti-War, and imo Huckabee seems like he wants to be the VP.
The religious right have been deceived by the Big Lie that is "Islamofascism". After the Values Voter debate, the Moderators were asked about Paul's positions. Janet Folger, President of Faith2Action and member of the Values Voter Debate committee, claimed that Paul "Cherry Picks" the bible, you know, for the peacenik parts. Rabbi Aryeh Spero of the Jewish Action Alliance, and Values Voter debate panelist, said something along the lines of "war is in the bible". Folger also made creepy biblical analogies regarding the delegate poll that was taken. All they seemed to do in the post-debate commentary was play apologist for the War Party. I can't recall them talking about anything else besides war and Huckabee ... I guess they thought nobody was watching...
It isn't all about abortion for them, it is ultimately about War, and they are just splitting the war vote. The religious right don't want a pro-life candidate, or they could be choosing to back Paul or push VP Huckabee more instead of smearing Rudy, they want a pro-life candidate that is also a Superhawk Authoritarian, a pro-war, pro-islamofascism candidate like Scoop and Dump, that is also pro-life. That would be their "ideal" candidate, and it is still a loser. Maybe if Huckabee promises to "Bring the Rapture to the Islamofascists", he can get pushed to the front.

I am an American
[Read the article: How the Democrats blew it]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am not an Israeli.
American comes first, and to me the blowback from Israel's adventures is more of a National Security threat then Iran.
Israel isn't worth American Dollars or American Blood. Let it defend itself with its hundreds of illegal nukes.
