So jeeeez those whites must be getting dumb, all the ducks are dead, the government is as corrupt as it can get and still sitting on fat asses mouthing ******** on how great they are??? and absolutely no hint at "overthrowing a corrupt regime of fascists" - Oh **** that regime is in their own backyard, and hiding behind a flag that looks like the "stars & stripes"..... seems blindness is a common affliction?

Boston, I agree. With much of what you post, I agree. I am part native, my father was born on (Chief Quanah Parker's) Quohada Comanche land (I know not where - near Fort Sill, obviously). He was 1/4 Native. All I have is somewhere a photo of the sod lean-to he was born in and a mothballed horse-hair blanket in which he was wrapped, newborn, in 1924. Our native part lost the war. Quanah P. knew we lost and was still a great man.
"Seems to me from this distance", I sometimes agree with you, too, Mas and I don't so much mind you being a rude somebitch to me but God, the drone, the nagging - Are you sure you are not a woman?

Mark, thanks? but I cannot understand the apparent total apathy that seems to be the response of the good folk in USA... The situation is not playschool stuff but I am sure any sub teen would understand the gravity of the situation.... I abhor conflict and to stir up some response from the good people of USA seems like talking to a dead dog?... The consequences of doing nothing, has very adverse consequences throughout the world, and, unlike USA military/foreign policy, most countries prefer to leave "internal matters" to the country concerned, but that does not mean we (foreigners), cannot, and will not, remain quiet, but rather yell out often and clearly, - - "WAKE UP YOU SLEEPY-HEADS" - and I feel at the moment most in USA seem totally comatose (on drugs?), as there is no reaction... and the situation that is dire and immediate.... VERY IMMEDIATE....

The immediate risk is that any credibility that the USA had is diminishing very fast... Interest in foreign cooperative assistance to the USA is diminishing faster than the FED is ******* around with exchange rates and trade... If market manipulation in USA continues the rest of the world will be forced to dump on USA economically, as continuing with gross economic abuse by USA is totally untenable... My feeling (and somehow I hope I am wrong), is that any global goodwill towards USA will not extend beyond mid 2010... if not earlier...

I can commend a read of this extended essay http://www.caseyresearch.com/displayCdd.php?id=220 - better yet subscribe yourself and don't be such a cheapskate...

Im ok with that Mark

my point is the same one I made to the idiot that accidentally shot me on the fourth

I dont mind so much getting accidentally shot
what I mind is the idiot not owning up to it and refusing to apologize ( kinda like the US gov )

I was willing to have a sense of humor about it
and said to him when I found his sorry ass standing in line at the bar
"new rule"
"anyone accidently shooting anyone else"
"owes em a drink"
and I meant it
and that fool said back
I dont like being told what to do

right about then things got ugly

typically they throw both parties out unless it could be clearly shown who started it
I started it
in this case
I stayed and my bouncer buddies got me the drink
they knew the guy was a jack ass and everyone knew he shot me and that I dealt with it myself so as not get the jerk in trouble with the law
Ive known this idiot sinse he was about 12 years old and Ive always defended him
to have him be such a jerk to me of all people just pissed me off no end
hell Im still pissed off
a month later and that looser still avoids me like the plague

so I think I got a pretty good sense of humor when it comes to things going awry
its when folks refuse to acknowledge there stupidity that I get irked

PS
if anyone needs a picture of the bullet wound I got several
it comes with a lovely profile of my ass
yup
as Forest Gump would say
I got shot directly in the buttocks

If anyone here openly advocates armed conflict, they are in deep Barack. There is an attempt underway to keep this place from morphing into SA Dos. We are aware of the corruption. Everything has to be done through the approved legal venues for now. They are attempting to silence dissention through fairness doctrine, permit roadblocks to conservative airtime, and government media (CNN, PMSNBC, New York Times, etc.) refusing to cover conservative viewpoints and belittling conservative ideals. They are financing and abetting their illegal activities through many channels - ACORN approved, government funded, under-age, illegal alien El Salvadorian prostitutes to make spending money and union thugs intimidating gentle folks at Town Halls are but two examples.
And if the Republicans get in, they're proven to be almost the same **** (but without the media bias and union thugs). A little bit of pain may just wake up the bunch.
What would you have us do - start shooting?
Don't show us your ass, Boston.

For a start show strong support for Ron Paul's HR1207 and make sure it is not a watered down show case of no effect or impact... The FED MUST be audited, honestly and openly... - - - - - - Hearing planned this month on Paul's bill to audit Fed http://www.gata.org/node/7778 and http://www.gata.org/node/7777 Antal Fekete: Has Barrick been barricked by the U.S.? - - veeeeery interesting nein?

Take your camera and record the event (video & sound) and post it on utube and make a link here... advise other independent podcasters / webloggers to cover the event... Make sure you have a clear and concise "press release" typed out and lots of copies to give the media... Challenge "mainstream" for being so recalcitrant in their failure to cover important 'home events', by sending releases to "opposition channels" with free footage (edited and ready to go) just before the news is tied down ready for broadcast... Organise a local closed road "tea party" in your street/block/suburb, be sure to invite the police along to protect the folk in your street party, alert some media as 'you claim you are fearful that uninvited people may seek to cause trouble as you plan to support HR1207 intentions to "audit the FED"', or, select another single key issue that needs community attention... and do this at least once a week.... Write to your politicians (BOTH parties) and assure them you will support an independent over them, if they fail in their responsibilities to their electorate....

The key is for the good citizens to stop this ongoing rot that does absolutely nothing to correct the problems faced by the good citizens at home (USA)... http://www.gata.org/node/7779 """ Richard Russell: Fed will do anything to keep gold down """ He is (reading between the lines) effectively talking about the FED & associates selling your ass and your children's future to any bidder.... those arseholes will do unto you that which gives you no pleasure and no future...

[quote=mark775;298466]Hey, Han. When you get done bleating, have a thought about why you are bitter. A swollen prostrate is nothing of which to be ashamed. People your age all have a problem there and if you just get your buns down to an MRI machine, you can get the thing diagnosed and maybe removed on the same visit! When you come down for your doctor's appointment don't forget to leave a few thou at the Tulalip casino!
Remember, be a good cheeser, take your Stanley Cup losses with a stiff upper lip. Don't make me boycott the Red Green show and throw your economy into a deeper tailspin. Really, it's almost curling season and you don't want to distract from that!

Mark,you miss the point.You take offense at me slagging poor policies,criminal behavior,and fools who get their education from South Park???

If it was corps. and bankers effing themselves up,that's fine.
But the derivatives and "asset backed" AAA Moody rated junk has f%^ed up many others all over the world..and ultimately yourselves.
Now,good hardworking Americans have now been fu%^ed over hard and dry and their kids/grand kids will spend the rest of their lives paying debts.
And you're mad at me??!!??

How much longer are the Chinese gonna buy your bonds to keep you running?
Is anyone going to in the future?

Don't believe the ads you see on TV re: health care in Canada.
Sponsored by companies who see a decrease in their income.
Just another dog and pony show.
But your gov't spends almost double per capita on subsidized health care than we do....so go figure.

Here's a cut and paste from an email:

I have friends in the US,and they tell me the same stories about having to wait at hospitals,waiting for a specialist,etc etc but they get to pay more.

50-60% of bankruptcies in the US are from health care costs.
So if I may have to wait a bit (hasn't happened) for my unlimited use/$40 a month...so be it.

How about this,like us:
-only G8 nation to have NO deficit AND paying debt off,this year the first negative year since 1996 or so.
-NO bank bail outs.
-Fed "cash for clunkers" amounts to $300 a car and is little used.
-as of this spring-.3% of Canadian mortgages in arrears for three months or more.
-subprimes are 1% or something like that.
-here's from a US newspaper a month ago:
"Canada's national debt at the moment is $481 billion and change, or $C14,400 per person.
The U.S. debt is $11.8 trillion, or $US38,400 per person but when we consider the estimated $15 trillion in "undeclared debt" which includes the $6trillion of Fanny Mae/Freedy Mac the comparison seems..."

So if you love giving money to banks who created a problem,and bailing out companies who are now rewarded for being crooks.....good for you.

And if it makes you feel better picking on us..that's OK too.
Stanley Cup-I think 55% of NHL players are from here anyways.

Don't like us? Fine..we'll switch off the oil,power,and natural gas.
What will u do then? Eat your couch and ride your bike?

But I get the last laugh because I've made a fortune from the U.S's misfortune the last year,and quite a lot of your hard earned tax money has ended up in my bank account.

So get back to work,I want more money-so do the Chinese...

I had a couple of those thugs you mention suggest I shoot him back
I thought it better to handle it the old fashioned way
I definitely got all his attention now

but that bit in the constitution has nothing to do with duck hunting
it was intended that a well armed public maintain a government that represents the people, by force if necessary

these days thats not a practical response to the take over by the corporate oligarchy
they got bigger guns and spend more money brainwashing the military than they do on just about everything else combined
( that was sarcasm but they do invest billions brainwashing the military kids )

I agree that we should be equally disgusted with both the democrats and the republicans
both are equally responsible for the present turmoil and
although Reorge definitely drove us over the edge
it had to happen sometime

they also do there best to silence dissension
specially when it concerns something obvious
like 9/11
which was about as obvious a gov job as anything could be

the real conservatives have been pretty much abandoned by both parties and are clearly out on a limb screaming for sanity
they are not likely to get any
the republicans have turned into fascists and the democrats socialists
leaving true democracy out in the cold and any pretense of a government by the people precisely that
a pretense
although democracy always left a few of its own out in the cold
so I guess one evil master is no better than another
at least from the native point of view

but in the end there is no turning the tide
we are headed to a worldwide two class system
historically that always breads violent revolution
and history never lies
what other outcome can there possibly be
impractical as it seems

cheers
B

[masalai]

maybe they are watching and laughing? MIB...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daNr_TrBw6E can anyone affirm who he is and that he is sane? if he is OK and who he says he is then 9/11 is another FRAUD on the American people...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkT5y...eature=related ??????? I am starting to have serious doubts as to the honesty of the US Govt and many others????

fron "13 Reasons for Major Gold Breakout"
The move to kiss $1000 gold was the foreplay, the first dance, the initial step to capture global attention and to preview the next much bigger move. Some important less visible factors are at work to push the gold price up, somewhat hidden from view. The Intl Monetary Fund and the London G-20 Meeting bear on the gold forces. The full breakout is imminent. It could be days, or a couple weeks, probably not more than a month. Ramadan ends in ten days, and Chinese anger is spilling over. Underlying structures are breaking with each passing week. Bank ripples are being felt. Insolvency is spreading like a disease, while corruption spreads like a cancer. Central bank money creation occurs like from a garden hose. Stories will be told about these days for decades. This is history in the making. They are accumulating gold bullion here. The fools are still selling gold, unaware of its 100% rise in price upcoming. Actually, what comes is a quasi-global 50% currency devaluation. China is cutting deals with the I.M.F. to secure central bank gold in huge blocks, much like geopolitical horse trading amidst grand power shifts for global control. If the West wishes to enjoy the benefits of Chinese credit supply, then China must be given much of what it demands. In short, the gold price will break out past 1100 and past 1200, toward a 1300 target, WHEN CHINA DECIDES TO GIVE THE ORDER.
- - - all in the timing and I know not when, but surely it will be soon... Add to the pressure, the Indian buying season, Barrak Gold, loss of faith in fiat currencies... the list goes on.

Well today has been entertaining and a significant learning experience... I feel good and may now post a few images on my build progress - not much happening really as good things take some time to make well, and it is very pleasing to see such fine work...

I hope you all have an enjoyable weekend with your loved ones and may your preferred deity shower you with blessings and joy...

I'll keep coming back to bop one on the head now and again but this is getting tiresome!

What an idiot one has to be to say something this arrogant. And who did you knock down exactly, you omnipowerfull usanian?

It is this sort of stupidity and arrogance that put the country and even those good people who have to live there, in the **** basket. As if you have some kind of "moral" authority on all things in the world and who doesn't think as you is "knocked" by his shithed higness mark the omnipotent...?

Get off that ass because you are just the next ignorant usanian who is 1/8 "native" only in your head. And remember that democracy means that other people have the right to think and value things that you may dislike. And you have no right to be this full of yourself because you have nothing to be full of yourself..

Although, there's a lot of other stuff that you are full of...

Oh..I'll get "knoceked" down now...the "freedomfighter, with several different nicknames by the way, is getting tired in his quest for the righteous to be free from dissent for their nazist hegemony.

Get a grip. Your country has destroyed itself after it has destroyed 3/4 of the world. And **** is yet to start pouring in.

And there are many with popcorn ready to cheer and celebrate. What goes around, comes around.

Your turn. It is all your fault anyway. Blaming others for your own malversations and crimes is quite a poor form.

[masrapido]

And they say they are democracy, not a nazist gulag. Here's how they design their command centres in the usanian navy. See for yourself:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/silvery/143053448/

It was all about catching the sun they say... optimal design...yeah, right.

And have a look a the link to the nursing home in Alabama too.

First, Dickweed, you've got somebody with an above average grasp of English penning for you now. Good job. Then, Yes, I do, have moral authority to defend my country against foreign invasion - even if said invasion is just by cockroaches, the likes of you. More freely, this is not a democracy. Hegemony? You're thinking of Pinochet. He put you on the map.
I look at things the other way - we've saved 3/4, or more, of the world and you, indeed, are discoursing on a forum, on a computer, with a program, bought with Chicago School earnings, through satellites, in free space...brought to you by the place you so despise. Even eating popcorn as a theater diversion is an American invention! Finally,.."criticism of (your) type is largely beside the point unless supplemented by evidence that a hypothesis differing in one or another of these respects from the theory being criticized yields better predictions for as wide a range of phenomena." Besides, we are not broken and you will not see it when it does happen and if we were to break, you still won't be able to demonstrate a better system. Hint: "Money Matters" - SEE? - YOU USED GOOGLE!

God, Seabass...I'm dumbstruck. I don't know what to say...um...ah, you caught us with a building that, when viewed from above, has the shape of a swastika. Yes, we are under the control of the Boys from Brazil. You are too good!

Good grief. You are more simple than I imagined.
