I'm not talking about selling little kiddies here or the sale of human beings as in sex-slavery or any manner of slavery. That's just wrong.
Prostitution has been going-on for eons & often times, it's been the basis of many past & present "Marriages". I actually see nothing wrong with the act & confess to having more respect for the working woman[prostitute] who makes her intent, clear than for these sneaky & creepy females[wife] who will marry a person merely for the financial gain such a union will afford them.



Just gross & wrong.

"Attractiveness"? Not important.

I feel that that the wealthy elite have More Privileges & this even includes breaking the law without repercussion, penalty, or punishment;}

Academy Invitation
*
A copy of the invitation to Sanders provided by the chancellor’s office is dated March 30 and signed by Sanchez Sorondo. The letter says he’s inviting the senator “on behalf of” Archer and the conference organizers. An announcement about Sanders’s participation, also under Sanchez Sorondo’s name, was released early Friday.
Bolivian President Evo Morales and Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa are listed as speakers at the event on the academy’s website. Sanders isn’t listed as a speaker.
Sanders, who has made economic disparities the centerpiece of his campaign, earlier on Friday said, “This is an invitation from the Vatican, from a pope that I have enormous respect for in term of the level of consciousness that he’s raising on the need to have morality in our economy.”
Weaver said on Bloomberg Television’s “With All Due Respect” Friday that Sanders has “great affinity” for the pope and his message on the moral economy, adding that he has no intention of canceling the trip to continue campaigning in New York, which will be a pivotal contest in the Democratic race.
“Some things are more important than politics,” Weaver said. “When you get invited by the Vatican, I think you go.”
The office of the pope moved to distance the pontiff from the visit. Father Federico Lombardi, the Pope’s spokesman, said Sanders had been invited “not by the pope but by the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences.” Lombardi told the Italian news agency Ansa: “For the moment there is no expectation that there will also be a meeting with the pope.”

Under no circumstances will I vote for Hillary Clinton. The DNC and Clinton machine are using the same dirty tricks they used in 2008. Sign this pledge and send a message to the establishment that Democracy is not a plaything for the elite.

Why Democrats Shouldn't Vote For Clinton. Hillary Clinton may be the DNC darling, but she should not be crowned the presidential nominee without popular consent. We the people cannot allow Clinton to win if we want to see a progressive White House. Clinton's policies are center-right, she carries too much baggage and she has too many enemies to win the general election. Below is a list of reasons why Clinton is unelectable.

Why Do African-Americans Support The Clintons?

Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks discusses a devastating editorial from Michelle Alexander in The Nation which dives into the Clinton family's history with the African-American community. Former President Bill Clinton is often called our "first Black President" but does he really deserve that nickname? Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

Read more here: http://www.thenation.com/article/hill...

"Hillary Clinton loves black people. And black people love Hillary—or so it seems. Black politicians have lined up in droves to endorse her, eager to prove their loyalty to the Clintons in the hopes that their faithfulness will be remembered and rewarded. Black pastors are opening their church doors, and the Clintons are making themselves comfortably at home once again, engaging effortlessly in all the usual rituals associated with “courting the black vote,” a pursuit that typically begins and ends with Democratic politicians making black people feel liked and taken seriously. Doing something concrete to improve the conditions under which most black people live is generally not required.

Some might argue that it’s unfair to judge Hillary Clinton for the policies her husband championed years ago. But Hillary wasn’t picking out china while she was first lady. She bravely broke the mold and redefined that job in ways no woman ever had before. She not only campaigned for Bill; she also wielded power and significant influence once he was elected, lobbying for legislation and other measures. That record, and her statements from that era, should be scrutinized. In her support for the 1994 crime bill, for example, she used racially coded rhetoric to cast black children as animals. “They are not just gangs of kids anymore,” she said. “They are often the kinds of kids that are called ‘super-predators.’ No conscience, no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel."*

While Her Email Troubles Mount,
Another ‘Draft Indictment’ From Clinton’s Past Could Surface
Mar. 28, 2016 12:46pm Fred Lucas

As the federal investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server appears to intensify, a government watchdog group is suing to obtain the “draft indictment” from a past scandal.

Whitewater, an Arkansas land deal gone bad when Bill Clinton was governor of Arkansas and Hillary Clinton was a member of the Rose law firm, was the subject of much suspicion during Bill Clinton’s tenure as president. The National Archives has confirmed that there was a “draft indictment” of then-first lady Hillary Clinton by the office of independent counsel Ken Starr. Robert Ray, who took over the probe in 1999, determined in 2000 there was not sufficient evidence to indict the Clintons regarding Whitewater.

However, the National Archives and Records Administration, is refusing to release the draft indictment, asserting it would violate the former first lady’s privacy.

Judicial Watch announced Monday it had filed a motion for summary judgment, and suspects 2016 presidential politics is behind the agency’s reluctance to release the information.

Hillary Clinton, former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, speaks with an attendees after a round table discussion at the University of Southern California (USC) in Los Angeles, California, U.S., on Thursday, March 24, 2016. More than halfway through a nomination race that she entered as the clear favorite, Clinton finds herself deadlocked with Bernie Sanders among Democrats.

“It is absurd for the Obama administration to argue that Hillary Clinton’s privacy would keep a draft indictment from the American public,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement. “One can’t help but conclude that the Obama administration is doing a political favor for Hillary Clinton at the expense of the public’s right to know about whether prosecutors believed she may have committed federal crimes.”

The National Archives confirmed in its court motion that “included among the records of Mr. Starr and his successors are drafts of a proposed indictment of Hillary Rodham Clinton.”
NARA also stated, “Box 2250 contains a folder labeled ‘Draft Indictment.’ Box 2256 contains a folder labeled ‘Hillary Rodham Clinton/Webster L. Hubbell Draft Indictment.’ Multiple drafts of the proposed indictment of Mrs. Clinton were located by NARA [National Archives and Records Administration] within these folders.”


The court filing, written by Martha Wagner Murphy, chief of National Archives FOIA branch, declared that the draft wold be a “privacy interest that is not outweighed by any public interest.”

“With respect to the potential invasion of personal privacy, all individuals are entitled to a presumption of innocence,” Murphy wrote. “When, in the context of a criminal investigation, an independent counsel determines not to bring an indictment, the subject of the investigation has a significant privacy interest in not being associated with any underlying criminal interest.”

The Clinton presidential campaign did not immediately respond to TheBlaze for comment.

The Judicial Watch’s opposition brief said, “Making false statements and withholding evidence from federal investigators bears on Mrs. Clinton’s honesty, credibility, and trustworthiness … for the position she currently seeks.” The brief added that the National Archives argument is “neither serious nor credible.”

The draft indictments regard allegations that Hillary Clinton provided false information and withheld evidence from federal investigators to conceal her involvement with the defunct Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan, the collapse of which lead to multiple criminal convictions of several involved in the Whitewater land deal.

Hillary Clinton represented Madison Guaranty as an attorney at the Rose Law Firm in Little Rock, Arkansas. Clinton’s Rose Law Firm billing records were found in the private quarters of the White House shortly after an important statute of limitations had expired.The Whitewater scandal was a convoluted matter that consumed the headlines in the early years of the Clinton administration. Starr’s investigation eventually led to the Monica Lewinsky matter.

The controversy traced back to 1978 with a real estate investment by the Clintons along with Jim and Susan McDougal into the Whitewater Development Corp., when Bill Clinton was the Arkansas attorney general and continued through his time as governor.

Hillary Clinton was a member of the Rose law firm, which handled legal business for the McDougals. David Hale, a former Arkansas judge also facing scrutiny, alleged that Gov. Clinton pressured him to provide an illegal $300,000 loan to the McDougals. The questions followed the Clintons to the White House in part because Hillary’s Rose law partners Vince Foster and Webster Hubbell both were giving posts in the administration. In 1996, numerous Clinton confidants were convicted, including Jim McDougal and Clinton’s gubernatorial successor, Jim Guy Tucker.

Not that having Clinton in would be any better...my goodness. She is another term of Obama, and it may be worse because she has PMS. I say with either Democrat we are screwed worse than we are now


Bernie wont get the nomination. Hillary has him beat with super delegates by several hundred. Bernie would literally have to win EVERY primary going forward to beat her. Not going to happen.

His only chance is if they finally arrest her for all her crimes, which seems doubtful at this point also.

Even Satanists will be reaching for the remote when …
The Devil deserves better than …

Throughout, the dialogue is studded with lines that are variations on things you’ve heard and read in hundreds of devil-or-angel-on-Earth TV shows, movies, and books. Lucifer actually says, “The devil made you do it.” And when a priest crosses himself, Lucifer says sarcastically, “Yeah, good luck with that, Father, and while you’re at it, say ‘Hi’ for me.”
No, Fox’s supernatural procedural seems almost content with its mainstream mediocrity. Boring to the point of banality, cliche, trite & predictable:{

Opinion/Judgement. The Difference?
An *opinion*[irregardless of how much passion is or is not involved] is always fluid & open to investigation & change . A *judgement* implies that some sort of "conclusion" has been realized based upon the information revealed by proper investigation, study, or research.



Good one Valeris :thumbsup:

I hadnt thought about that part before, and on top of judgement being conclusive as you said, the judgmental discourse is sometimes based on little to no research or evidence.


And that's where the real crux of the problems lies Peggy!
When someone holds his/her opinion with as much validity as one would hold a judgement[conclusion]! It is my theory[opinion] that many such individuals do not possess the cognitive awareness to even make that distinction, to know that they do not know.
Their opinion in their minds- Is FACT. This falsely- held delusion could be based upon whatever dubious & obscure source[s] that deeply affected the particular individual [religious beliefs,parental beliefs, social dogma,trauma, soap opera plots, ect...the list is endless]. It has been written that the majority of individuals are without any awareness to even accurately understand what they do not understand; much less do the work to correct their misunderstandings.These are the people who, after being shown the facts & presented with glaring evidence will blatantly dismiss it, refuse to believe it, & will do anything to maintain the validity of their own erroneous delusions! People will behave like this not only in regard to their external & social environment but more dangerously so in reference to their inner landscapes & self identity. For example- There is so much evidence, study, & hard core research that has been done to provide a rational person with the fact that global warming/climate change is going to cause this [our] world- "a world of woe" in the not so distant future; yet there many people out there who still think climate change is a hoax & that there is no cause for any kind of concern or attention to the issue!!! On an inner an inner landscape level,take for example the disease of alcoholism. Think about the vast number of people who have a drinking problem yet in confronting that individual with specific events, facts, repercussions as proof that alcohol has destroyed or is in the process of destroying his/her life[s], relationships,the lives of others around them, careers,ect.; and yet when confronted with the "HARD FACTS", the majority of these individuals will stoutly maintain that Alcohol is "Not The Problem"-["Everything & Everyone" Else Is! [the real problem]!!! To these individuals, Everyone & Everything Else Is "The Problem" & in their self-deluded minds, "That's the Real Fact[s]." Not their opinions; a judgement.The alcoholic will swear that he/she is in total control & can hold their liquor just fine, blah, blah, blah...
The therapeutic term for this behavior is "Denial". At this point in life, I don't really care how the experts define it or why & how most people are able to be so blind; in the infamous words of Rhett Butler[Gone With The Wind] "Frankly My Dear, I don't give a damn."
And that's why cleaning-up the bat guano in my cave is a such a small price to pay to keep such upsetting individuals[azzholes]
-far away from my sanctuary!
The End.
Lmao!

Everyone has already said it, "SCAMMERS". Report them[or don't] as these individuals don't care. Scammers are able to quickly create another account on a site faster than that site can hope to delete them. A couple of tools that I have found helpful to weed-out the scammers are the following:
Google Reverse image search
https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/1325808?hl=en

Google search on their phone or email handle[s].

Who said this site could be for anti-social....would anti-social people post in a forum? I think not.


Totally Disagree! Actually Anti-Social Personality Types["Loners, Introverts, Hermits, & Recluses, Ect.] would be far more apt to post in an impersonal forum/group environment than meet-up/converse on a one-on-one, up-close, in-your-face encounter of the personal kind. Many anti-social personality types actually do like to talk but only on their own terms & conditions.:laughing:

I'm watching the series Longmire, and in it they paint quite the picture of the situation between white Americans and native Americans.
What I get from the series -which is set in Wyoming close to an Indian reservation, it's not much different from white Americans and African Americans. Lot of finger pointing and blaming and victimizing themselves. Stuff like "You're picking on me because I'm an Indian."
I spose based on many white people treating them like dirt still?

I'm wondering, is the situation really that bad?


The atrocities committed by white Euro-Trash against the indigenous Native American Population are even worse than I could fit into a post. Genocide, Cultural Annihilation, & Seizing Their Land[Property].Don't ask my Great Father that question or you might get a barrel full of buckshot up your butt;} Rumor has it that he spent his last years, hiding out in his barn with an old loaded rifle waiting to ambush any white individual who walked onto "His Property"! He thought The White Man was out to take his land & so they did as they told him they would for non-payment of taxes.
