I just shortened the message since words can get boring sometimes. Well, not really boring, but only when there are a bunch more than you want.
Somehow, John Grisham seemed to not saturate his books with words that either put you to sleep, or send you over the edge of a cliff. So I guess none of his readers went over the cliff, therefore he's cool. |

This whole primary contest (notice I didn't call it a race) is going to change when Bernie Sanders wins both Iowa and New Hampshire--which is now the expectation according to new polls. I believe South Carolina follows. The dynamics of states which follow will bump Senator Sanders up significantly as a direct result of his victories. He is only about 10 behind Hilary in S.C. but as you have noticed, he was 20 points down in Iowa. Look where he is now--ahead.
If this trend continues (and I don't see any sign it won't), you will witness the most incredible thing to ever happen in politics. His speaking to students at Liberty University Monday--not a progressive venue by any means--shows this man doesn't care where he reaches out--as long as he is reaching out to the voting public. No other democratic candidate (in my lifetime) has ever tried to reach out to voters in a conservative state in an election cycle. Red states have simply been written off by democrats as a waste of time. Not for Bernie Sanders. He see's no difference in voters disenfranchised by the political process over the past few decades. Conservative or progressive, both have common ground in having their voices heard on issues that affect them. Issues pertaining to healthcare, education, and income inequality have no specific boundaries. These issues are understood by everyone. And they have generally been ignored by other candidates who have been perceived as part of the political game. Senator Sanders knows this. This business of "politics as usual" has disgusted the voting public to the boiling point. Finally, a candidate has tapped into that disgust addressing issues that MATTER! All eyes are watching how this will play out. We all may be witness to something really big happening. We will know soon if the rest of the country is "feeling the Bern". Stay tuned. |

"And you find yourself in a brand new house. And you may find yourself with a beautiful wife. And you may find your self with a brand new car".
"Same as it ever was. Same as it ever was". And BTW, since you mentioned it, I was contacted by a woman from some Western African country on another site. I think I initiated the "flirt" as her city of origin was listed in bay area. She responded and was very anxious to get married. She then confessed she was in another country...I believe she said Gahana. A bit dishonest to say the least. And the reason for this of course, was to get her Visa to be over here. I tried that once before and bugged out myself. I want to physically meet someone before moving foward with anything. If they were able to fly over and spend time here, then fine. But engaging in long distance affair is not, IMO, safe. A realitionship with a woman of nationality is ok, but you need to be a resident IMO. |

For me, having an emotional drain being in LDR is IMO not healthy. What if someone would like to see you for coffee, or lunch to chat. Another thumbs down on LDR. Been there-done that. Reasonably local is more logical for both parties.

Re-Elect Obama

Adam Serwer over at MotherJones explains it clearly, The administration had said that the military detention provisions of an earlier version of the NDAA were “inconsistent with the fundamental American principle that our military does not patrol our streets.” The revised NDAA is still inconsistent with that fundamental American principle. But the administration has decided that fundamental American principles aren’t actually worth vetoing the bill over. On one hand the administration claims that it’s opposed to the bill to keep it’s progressive constituency at bay all the while planning to sign it anyway. It should be noted that the Obama administration’s attacks on the civil liberties of Americans far outweigh those of the Bush administration’s. While George W. Bush only took away your 4th Amendment rights via the USA PATRIOT Act, the Obama administration has extended the USA PATRIOT Act and now repealed your 5th and 6th Amendment rights through the NDAA. You can also say goodbye to The Posse Comitatus Act, which makes it illegal for the military to stroll around the streets of suburbia and arrest people at will. Civil rights organizations like the ACLU have come to the realization that Obama’s actions are historically some of the most dangerous and tyrannical. Laura W. Murphy of the ACLU’s Washington office, in a press release stated, If President Obama signs this bill, it will damage both his legacy and American’s reputation for upholding the rule of law. The last time Congress passed indefinite detention legislation was during the McCarthy era and President Truman had the courage to veto that bill. We hope that the president will consider the long view of history before codifying indefinite detention without charge or trial. ***************** This is taking America in the right direction? Good leadership? Constitutional freedom? Protection? Sorry....if it looks like tyranny, reads like tyrany, is enforced like tyranny.....IT'S TYRANNY! I'm just disapointed that he allowed GW's policy to continue. He should be ashamed of himself as a Constitutional expert. And so should Eric Holder. |

Ron Paul Slams SOPA

Presidential Candidate Ron Paul Slams SOPA December 29, 2011 A few days before the election circus in the US will start with the Iowa’s caucus, presidential candidate Ron Paul made a comment on the pending SOPA bill “They want to take over the Internet,” he said. “Can you imagine how much we’re going to be curtailed in the spreading of out information if we lose the Internet?” Paul says that while SOPA is claimed to stop piracy, it’s mostly going to invade the privacy of citizens and restrict their freedom. Ron Paul currently leads the majority of Iowa polls. http://bcove.me/kfxlc497 ___________________________________________________________________ Romney, Perry, Gingrich, and their "leader" Hussein love it. What they hate is freedom of speech. They can't handle it. Why is Ron Paul the only candidate who speaks out against this? So he can stir up his Libertarian base. |

this sounds like a repeat of the scare surrounding the patriot act,,,parts of it sucked,, sure but overall, my life nor the lives of the large majority of people havent been changed by it one iota,,,, Those who exchange liberty for safety lose both. If you think the Patriot Act didn't cost any freedom, you are simply uninformed. It's a gross assault on the fourth amendment, couched in platitudes, deceit, and fraud. There's a good reason rational men (and women) in this country have always opposed such measures. History tells us that The State will overstep its boundaries when it's ever given the chance. I guess I would rather live safely with fewer luxuries than die refusing to negotiate with any,,,, patriot act is how old now ,,ten years, I just havent seen evidence of the great loss of freedom its caused,,,, If you don't see the evidence, then I suggest that you read some of the writings of Madison and Franklin on this subject. There was a reason they wrote the Fourth Amendment. I, for one, am not someone who believes in watering down a Constitutional Amendment for the protection of a nation. If someone says its there to protect you, don't trust them by their words. |
