As opposed to getting it from those who get tingles up their leg thinking about him?Quote:

Um... fox news wasn't the station that originally aired it... it was a local news station.
It was funny as hell... but damn... she got through not one but all four of those without it registering what she said? SLOW might be an understatement.
You see . Sen Durbin thinks that the only legitimate journalists are those who got a media paycheck . But you can find plenty examples of this type of fail from many local outlets ,and even some big prime time losers like Dan Rather .
Only to idiots so eager to mock Fox News they didn't stop to see it was a local Oakland TV station.Quote:

Partial transcript:
What could go wrong?Quote:
Why is this nomination important? Once the director is approved… by the Senate, we no longer have any control over a bureau that collects everyone’s financial records in detail and can cancel a loan 180 days even if both parties to the loan are happy. … The reason this is of the utmost concern to me and has been for the past three years is the lack of Congressional oversight and blatant privacy intrusions of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the CFPB. … I said, this bill was supposed to be about regulating Wall Street. Instead, it’s creating a Google Earth on every financial transaction. That’s right, the government will be able to see every detail of your finances. Your permission? Not needed. They can look at your transactions from the 50,000 foot perspective, or they can look right down to the tiny details of the time and place where you pulled cash out of an ATM. … If your data’s being collected, you do not have the option to opt out. Nor does the CFPB need any kind of permission from you to gather your personal financial information.
I know, it's for our own protection... or rather for the protection of Obama's big bank buddies. Come on ex, occupy a bank!
Quite certain every Washington politician has a bank buddy. It's truly a bi-partisan wonder.
Goober Graham is a prototypical inside the beltway Republic .
The government is going after former Goldman Sachs trader Fabrice P. Tourre aka “Fabulous Fab” and doing nothing about the big wigs there that write the checks to the Dems. GS of course set up Tourre for the fall .while he will be wearing the orange jump suit, they walk with the bank paying a fine .
Referring back to my "what could go wrong" question above...
Dodd-Frank regulations would fill 28 copies of 'War and Peace'
So far...
What could go wrong?
Another global economic meltdown?
As long as they all got theirs... that's all that matters.
How much money that could go to salaries and investment and such is going to be wasted trying to figure out what the hell the law means?Quote:

Are you saying Bill Gertz is not a legitimate journalist ?
The NY Slimes is reporting that Snowjob's lawyer has ties to Federal Security Service (F.S.B.)

You know what FSB is ? The main successor agency to the KGB .
Hello again:
Republican Saxby Chandless says that, IF they were allowed to do it, the SPYING program that they're using NOW, would have prevented 9/11.
Duh! Who among us doesn't think a police state WORKS to reduce crime? Is that what we want America to become?

Hello again,
Give 'em an inch...
Yes, the DEA wants access to the NSA data? Should they have it? What about your local police? Should THEY have NSA data about you? In fact, ALL government agencies WANT access to that data. Who's surprised at that?
In my view, the 4th Amendment is MUCH more important to our freedom than being able to own a gun..
To those of you who SUPPORT a police state, please answer my above question.
excon
Why should it be one or the other?
More important than your right to have a gun?
You are aware that after they take away everyone's guns... "The Man" will have absolutely nothing holding them back for going all the way overboard... Ghandi types don't scare that element... a bullet to the skull and Gandhi would have been worm food... shoot enough of the Gandhi types and the weaker willed will capitulate.
We've seen for 4.5 years now the Law means absolutely nothing to meglomanicas on a power trip.
Your right to have a gun are no more or less important than anyone else's. Naw I doubt you wingers can shoot your way to ruling the country. Stupid to try.
Just curious Smoothie, ever have a psych evaluation? I think all you gun toter's' should have one, especially for concealed handguns. And you can't drink and drive so you shouldn't be allowed to drink and shoot either.
I know requiring a basic competency test is taking away your right to bear arms, but who wants a crazy drunk a$$ with a gun roaming the streets?
I think I'd rather have a crazy drunk with a gun than a Democrat drunk with power.Quote:

What grab bag are you picking from to get all these talking points ? The second amendment is the most inportant amendment as it upholds all the others. As far as the fourth I believe they are in violation of it with how they are handleing this through the NSA.Quote:

Details, details.
Great news, the DOJ is going to investigate itself just like it did with Fast and Furious.
Move along, nothing to see here. Look, something shiny!Quote:
The US Department of Justice has launched an investigation into revelations that the Drug Enforcement Agency uses surveillance tactics – including wiretapping and massive databases of telephone records – to arrest Americans, amid growing concerns from lawyers and civil rights groups over its lack of transparency.
The emperor showed some spine this week in cancelling a summit with Vladdy (Darby) Putin. Let's face the facts... Evita and his reset have had the predictable results . Putin sees el jeffe as a weak President and openly shows his disdain . I can understand him not cooperating with us where he sees where it counters Russian national interest . But it is a hard sell to claim keeping Snowjob in Russian custody instead of honoring our extradition request is in their interest (what ? You thought they were granting him asylum ? ). No doubt they already downloaded his computers while he was still hanging in Moscow Airport.
This is just poking a finger in our eye .Doubly so when you consider that we released Russian spies ,including Anna Chapman, instead of tossing them in the slammer .
I welcome the fact that after 5 years as our leader ,the Emperor finally realizes the necessity of preconditions before discussion... even though I thought I heard the emperor say he didn't care about a 29 year old hacker. Next lesson... don't draw red lines unless you intend to enforce them.
ProPublica highlights the differences in policy between the emperor and Senator Obama.

Tom, do I really need to go over the whole thing again. Both sides see the benefit of the current practice. A path once trodden in the present will become a path well worn in the future.Quote:

That's the problem Tom seeing only the conservative view and thinking its absolutely right and everybody else is a criminal, and wrong. Not everyone buys the true believer approach. Especially when you eat your own.
Hello again,
How's THIS for eating our own? Under THIS president, we have witnessed the complete and absolute destruction of the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution...
While you wingers were sniveling about the Second Amendment, he STOLE the Fourth.
