The complete idiocy of the left is absolutely amazing.
Only a partial truth ....

.... now, if you had said:

"The complete idiocy of the left and the right is absolutely amazing ....."

..... well then, ya mighta been on to something ....

Enjoy your last two years of the community organizer's reign. He will soon go the way of the peanut farmer and the dodo bird.
Dude,

Like ........ who are ya talkin' to anyways ? :rolleyes:

I knew it wouldn't take long for somebody to throw Glen Beck out there.... it's so easy to do when you lack a rational and cognizant point...
No, it's entirely easy to do ..... whether you have a cognizant point or not .....

That's the real beauty of it ;)

I don't even know what the man looks like but anybody who angers the Communists so much can't be all bad ...
Communists ?

Really - is that how it works ?

ROTLMAO !

Uhhhh ..... you do know that Jesus was communist, right ?

Acts, Chapter 4, verses 32 - 35:

"And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need."


Christian Communism

Gotta love watching this kind of thing unfold, a bunch of people arguing about these events on an internet forum...
Glad you could pitch in ....... but in truth, it is not nearly as humorous as watching Glenn Beck .... close, but not quite ....

How many of you are prepared for what will happen here after the middle east falls apart and China leverages its enormous military strength in Asia? When Taiwan falls and the price of all the things we're used to getting so cheaply skyrockets, what then?
Ahhhh .... I dunno .... mebbe we'll start makin' stuff here again ?

A (foreign) producer becomes uncompetitive, and some (domestic) individual (or individuals) produces a product which is as good or better, at a more competitive price ?

Isn't that how a market system, where there is freedom and individual initiative is rewarded, is supposed to work ?

But ah yes .... I see your point:

..... wars .... and rumors of wars .....

Seems to me someone once commented about such things ..... :rolleyes:

BTW, it must really suck to go through Life, looking at the world as such a dangerous place ..... that one is utterly terrified 24/7/365 ..... and in a permanent state of fear ...

This great distraction has us all looking in the wrong direction.
There are many great distractions ..... that have us looking in many wrong directions .....

Report: Saudis Warned Obama Not to 'Humiliate' Mubarak – states it all!
Actually, what it states is how terrified the Saudis are at their own precarious domestic position, in context of the events in Egypt ... given that the regimes are similar in certain ways ... indeed not very good ones (authoritarian/totalitarian, brutally repressive, etc.)

The Saudis own time may be coming as well .. perhaps sooner than later ....

I reframed from detailed comment's like all the above. the boy king was muzzled!
Well, I am you glad "reframed" .... it was a pure genius move .... :rolleyes:

I shudder to think what might have happened if you had refrained .....

Not really.

Saudi's shipping lane is thru the sewage canal. there must be a three way going on! Warm fuzzy MB must be the Saudi's big concern ..
No, I'd say that citizens of Saudi Arabia are probably the big concern of the Royal Family .....

like Friday is the 32nd anniversary of Iran's takeover of the carter administration, I mean warm fuzzy 32nd anniversary of Iran's Islamic revolution ..... flowers peace freedom
Yeah ... well, it actually takes some degree of ethics, moral character, and a certain rudimentary level of intelligence to get along with one's fellows ....

Any dipwad retard can resort to the use of force .... to pulling a trigger ...... to killing and harming another individual .....

Such immoral and unethical dipwads, most civilized society recognizes them for what they truly are: criminal

Might I recommend not taking this stuff to a personal level. It is Egypt for crying out loud. Hardly worth a personal argument or agenda.

I think Dave that most of what's going on in Egypt is not even known to the people in Egypt at any level let alone the rest of the world.

This isn't any crisis as many make it out as but rather somewhat of an external struggle between a few parties to wrestle control over the influence of the country.

The administration is scared, proven by the point of scattered and open confusion about the situation.

The sad thing is that the one group that will really lose will be the Egyptian people, their government will not be a free one regardless what happens, someone will have to fill the void if the government topples and that will be the military who will shut the country down.

That is and will be the likely outcome. The current administration is completely lost with what to do with it. The only upside for them is keeping much of the national at home issues off the front pages.

I'd really like to see some type of consistency of the level of "concern" when it comes to the "personal" comments.

I'm sure he is a big boy and is perfectly capable of speaking for himself.

A little Self-Reflection can go a long way.

Yes it can....One has to know when it is just not worth it to respond....one knows how certain people are and one is NOT going to change their minds...so why do some keep pushing to get the point across? Give it up and move on....no one is going to think less of one that does...for the peace and harmony of the site.....

Notice: the lack of the word "you" "me" or any proper name....goes a long way to depersonalize the conversation
