Be Afraid Of Isis

The rest of Europe is learning the hard way what happens when you turn a blind eye to the infiltration of a terrorist state in the name of "religious freedom".

They are now stricken by their own prejudices/hypocrisies. They know they have to live with this for ever, as will we. At least until we can no longer borrow money to pay for fighting it,

The only hope is for a third party to rise to the public conscience and gains traction, similarly to the UKIP in England. They at least have sense.

The programmed zombies that inherit this nation have no idea what responsibilities they hold, nor care. They have no idea that a world exists outside of Facebook.

I would love to see parties other than dems or reps rise to prominence. I find it astonishing that this country, with tons of choices in so many categories, that we only have 2 major parties come election time.
Id at least like my next vote for prez not be viewed as 'throwing away' my vote, like in the last two elections.

I can only hope ISIS will brutality awaken Western lemmings including our President from their Arab, all is well, PC, wet-dream.

Conniving and deceitful Muslim leaders are now in full damage control mode in an attempt to keep the PC zombies in their self-induced fantasy of reaching out to moderate Islam -- the religion of peace despite the fact everything ISIS is doing is in the name of Allah and is fully supported by and in the Koran.

When the Koran preaches of the killing and destruction of all infidels it means killing and destruction. The Koran despite all its false advertisement is not like the bible and in fact reads more like a gang manifesto or Mein Kampf. The religion is not a peaceful one, never will be, no matter how much fabreeze is sprayed on it.

They're all hoping that the "international community" will provide leadership, since we have none.

As ABC’s State Department reporter Ali Weinberg remarked, this was their message just from one single day: “We're going to destroy ISIS. Or manage them. Or shrink their sphere of influence. Or follow them to the gates of hell.”

Any success for "third parties" seems to be limited to local government, with rare exceptions. On the state and federal levels, the two parties have all the resources, and it's rare for a third partier to even be allowed to debate them. FWIW, in every presidential election in which I have voted, I've always considered my vote to be for the lesser of two evils. In my youth, I considered my Dad's view of politicians to be incredibly cynical, but it only took time and attention for my opinion of them to mirror his (again, with rare exceptions). Anyone who isn't cynical about big government isn't paying attention.

Yeah, I guess so, if one considers also the lemmings who drool and faint at the sight of dear leader(s) to be "in on the scam," which I suppose they are even if they aren't sufficiently self aware to know it.

Yea but in the early 70's CEO's used to make only 60 times what an average worker was paid and now it's 331 times or 5.5 times more than it used to be.

Meanwhile the National Debt, the debt we all owe, has gone from 500 billion in the early 70's to almost 18 trillion today but that's only 36 times more than it used to be.

As long as 'they' are able to keep the lemmings feeling like victims, jealous and focused on trivia they can buy and have been buying their votes for decades. F@#k the generations to come, we're leaving them windmills and electric cars.

Talked to one of the leads of the Libertarian Party of Vanderburgh Co. Southern Indiana recently. He told me that the party has no structure whatsoever despite having a strong Pres. Candidate.

Nothing is going to work unless these guys gets some backing.

So if you are smart enough to see the inevitiable outcome of concentrated wealth and those with that wealth buying the rule changes you are playing the victim card? Take a look at companies missing earnings and where are they missing? If you guessed revenues you would be correct. Why would that be genius? We are no longer in the 70's where some had a sense of ethics and fair play. You now have CEO's with a lottery ticket of hundreds of millions in options. You think they give a fuk that the jobs they are blowing away will translate into future revenue misses? Nah just hit the bottom line for the Qtr so they cash out.
I wish I could gloat when the **** hits the fan and all your assests become worthless as we get crushed with deinflation but mine will be also. But you are smart and will get short. Good luck with the carrying charges and the routine margin call inducing bear market rallies that crush people a hell of a lot smarter than us.

Now back to this ISIS ****. I have been very against the wasted Trillions over the last 15 years but now it is time to send a message. We need to send a 21st century Locust swarm of drones at them and destroy them. Cost effective and none of our sons and daughters will be coming back in half.

yeah, i know what you mean about lesser of two evils-but they're still evil.

is it wrong of me to enjoy telling people 'i told you so' when they admit to me they were suckered by obama's talk of change?
when a pols lips move, they're lying.
