A GOP senator believes that a GOP’s candidate of exaggerated military service is acceptable but a Democratic candidate cannot exaggerate his military service. Let me share with you that I am an Independent who leans progressive on issues so no one will believe on my military service during the Vietnam War.
After college I enlisted as patriot to serve my country and after three years I re-enlisted for another three years. During basic training I was trained as a paratrooper. After completion of basic training at Fort Leavenworth the military brass informed me that being a paratrooper in the jungles of Vietnam would not be useful and so I became part of the infantry. In six years I completed ten tours of duty and I also was awarded three Purple Hearts, one Silver Star, and one Bronze Star. I was also awarded the Congressional Medal Honor.
When I arrived home, I had a difficult time adjusting. I went to the family doctor and I gave him my background and the family doctor said to me that the VA may be helpful and I may qualify for health insurance and VA services.
I went to the VA and their doctors said to me that I did not qualify for any services because there is no PTSD category for services.
Military men and women are only cannon fodder to fight in endless wars for the United States of Hell’s evil empire.
Well Marks' last statement is all you need to know about his inablity to understand the situation. We are not at war with Islam, we never have been at war with Islam, however I would say Mark Williams is on a personal crusade.
If we hope to take our country back from corporate rule then we need to overhaul our election system. We need instant runoff voting, campaign finance reform, outlaw professional lobbying, outlaw private ownership of voting machines. In 2000 the oil industry pulled off a coup de etat and placed their own people into the executive office. Cheney held secret meetings prior to Sept. 11. The mass murders in Manhattan gave the oil people an excuse to invade Afghanistan, subdue the Taliban and control the oil and gas pipelines from the Caspian. That was Part I of the PNAC NeoClown plan. Part II was Iraq, and Part III will likely be Iran.
Our taxpayer-funded military is at the express service of big oil, and all sacrifices, deaths and dismemberments in these wars are born by the people; all profits from acquiring the oil from unfriendly nations is exclusively the property of the corporations who will reward Americans' sacrifce by selling the oil to the highest bidder on the world market. There have been many reasons to be outraged at big oil and their control over our government, the Gulf Spill is the one that actually directly affects Americans and American soil.
When poor indigenous people suffered the consequences of big oil practices, the world barely noticed. Now that rich white people are being affected in the Gulf, people are taking notice and the outrage grows. Oil is finite and necessary therefore it should be considered an energy source common to all people. It should be nationalized. Projecting ahead, there will be less oil, more people, more consumption. There will be more control and nearly unlimited profits for less and less people (oil executives) who will repeat history and use a substantial portion of their profits to further corrupt the venal clowns in Congress and in the Whitehouse.
I can't believe there is serious talk about loosening restrictions on hunting whales, especially with the destruction to whales happening in the Gulf this very moment.
Well I guess the Sea Shepard is going to be working overtime.
Thom, is you could, please remind your listeners: VOTE NO ON PROP 16
this would require a 2/3 majority vote before local governments could negotiate with municipal utilities to provide electric power to thier cities.
municipal utilities save citizens anywhere between 30%-60% vs existing PG & E rates
why? because municipal utilities do not have to pay dividends or pay executive compensation
this proposition is funded by Pacific Gas & Electric, who dumped $30-40 million into the campaign. they have saturated the media with tv and radio ads, full page newspaper ads and mail flyers. they are feeding off voter anger by framing it as "the citizens right to vote act" asking "shouldn't YOU have the right to vote before politicians spend YOUR money by entering the electric power business?"
they are cleverly asking the voters to vote against their own best interests
there is no organized opposition, as no local government can afford to fund even one major tv ad
this is david vs goliath and an example of how the citizens united decision may influence future campaigns
if you can, please urge all your california listeners to vote NO on PROP 16
Alex Jones was on a roll. June 4, 2010. I do not know whether or not what was said on his show is correct. He had four guests on his program. I tried to write down some of the information and maybe you have had an opportunity to have heard some of the information that I will share with you.
On the first part of his program he discussed GMO foods. The food that we are eating will sterilize us and reduce fertility to have children. With each passing generation the problem will worsen. Our food is infected with GMOs.
Alex mentioned that the world hates America and we are looked upon as an evil country. GMO foods will cause people to die at a younger age. GMO foods can cause fir hair to grow in your mouth. Hair will cover our entire body. Will we be returning to the Neanderthal Age? Americans are being murdered through GMO foods. America is looked upon by the world as the most oppressive state on the planet.
Bankers want to bankrupt America and Americans in order to control us. Our politicians are robbing us blind. Our federal government is a criminal enterprise. Americans are only cockroaches in the pantry. Our humanity is being suck out of us. The IRS audits only the little people. Poverty is the greatest control tool. Impoverish us and you can control us. People with money and income are a threat to the rich and powerful.
Bob Chapman was a guest on the program and he said that Hitler and Stalin came into power because the UK and the USA financed them into power.
The globalists want a major war so more profit can be made from these wars. Will Israel and Iran collide into war? Israel is planning to nuke Iran. The flotilla raid was an attempt to cause a major war and possibly the start of World War III. Things just do not happen; they are planned. When a government is in trouble, the government will start a war as a diversion for the people from their problems and troubles. Israel wants to draw the USA into war and nuke Iran. Wars generate money. Powerful people are profiting from wars. Killing human beings in war makes money. The green light has been given to commence a war. Zigmunt Brezinski is a warmonger. He pushes for wars and a world government.
Employment numbers are being manipulated and skewed to make the unemployment look like it is going down. The job market is worse and not better. Obama is a Bildenberg Group brother. Obama is a very dangerous person. We must not trust Obama. The Bildenberg Group is pushing for a world government. No one seems to be standing up for democracy. The globalists are evil but righteous perseverance will defeat evil
The U.S. Supreme Court under the tutelage of the five Mafioso types has ruled that corporations are persons. I have a problem with this decision but there isn’t anything I can do to reverse the decision. Since we will have to live with the decision than I say, let us look at corporations as a person. If corporations are persons, then a corporation should be prosecuted as a person for crimes that are committed.
The CEO of a corporation is the brain and heart of a corporation or person. The CFO is the lung of a corporation or person and the COO is the kidney of a corporation or person. The other officers, such as vice-presidents, treasurer, etc. are the arteries, the blood and the skeleton of a corporation or person. Corporate security is considered the muscles of a corporation or person. This person is not man or a woman because most executives of corporations lack the courage to do what is right and they are corrupted by the money.
The corporation, as a person, must be prosecuted and put into jail without any possibility of a parole for crimes against humanity and murders. Maybe with life sentences, crimes and murders by corporations will subside.
re: #24: Here's a typical ballot proposition: Proposition 134-c A: Should the County Finance Department commission a study to evaluate the efficacy of offering 4% brokerage fees in under-utilized actuarial tables for class 887 brokerage bonds sold in international markets under current conditions; given that the 2005 Spadex report noted a 1.2% rise; or should the County re-evaluate previous rates for possible lower returns based on current GNP? Or not?
@harry, I thought the chemicals in plastics actually improved the right wing dingleberry crop... silly me.

@Maxrot re #52: yeah, but due to bi-sphenol A and other chemicals in plastics, the crop has "shrunken" perceptibly.
re Thom's statement to caller Lisa: "Assuming you are you say you are, I think you're nuts."
Good on you, I'm still smiling over that one.

@MAXROT RE Mark Williams: Unfortunately, a dingleberry with a loyal listening base.
If President Clinton had done that . . . He woulda been on the side of the angels BUT he woulda TOTALLY energized the whackado fringe.
Im guessing the loosening of the whale hunting restrictions is due to the financial crisis in Europe, esp Iceland.

Carter and Ike are probably the only Presidents in my lifetime who didn't deserve impeachment.
Jimmy Carter in my opinion had only one ethical failing; continuing to arm the Indonesian army to committ genocide on the East Timorese.
