  1. I read the article to learn what are those connection and there is no names, except from Putin's name just for kicks with no relevancy. Basically it's "Trump is bad, trust us we know". It's like reading an article written by BruceVC. My favorite line: "He would know what's there, he knows who his partners are and he knows, you know, he will know going forward." Is this even English? We should be following this story to see how it unfolds, its too early to see how serious it is but you should be concerned
  2. http://edition.cnn.com/2016/09/14/politics/kurt-eichenwald-donald-trump-business/index.html Guys this should be the most concerning story you have read in a while, Trump has real trade links to various countries that have a negative view of the USA This should be a real concern if the security of the USA is a worry to you
  3. Again this is just another reason why Julian Assange annoys me and why I have no respect for him He claims to be the person who " wants the world to know the truth " , he says the world deserves the truth and it is " incumbent on all of us to demand the truth " But what is the " truth " according to Assange ? His idea of truth is selectively releasing cables and information that alway have one primary objective, they want to undermine the USA and the West. They want to weaken the West and this is a problem for me He is biased and has an agenda and its fine to have an agenda but lets not fool ourselves, wikileaks offers information that presents a subjective view of the facts. If you are fine with this then you are fine with this Its interesting you acknowledge "wikileaks has no intention to let Clinton become president " .....just this comment highlights my point. Wikileaks has this unbelievable degree of arrogance to assume they have any right to determine who should be president of the USA? Why would anyone in the USA who actually will vote care what Assange thinks ?
  4. Mate, you've gone bonkers. I'm going to suggest counseling for you and BruceVC. Spose I don't have space to speak since I did my screed gainst Clinton's dishonesty. Doubt she reads it, though. quidproquo you are new here so you still have to probably form opinions of the various members and what motivates them My view on SJ and politics is often misunderstood on these forums, some people tend to generalize and assume what I mean and that creates a negative view of what I stand for Sometimes its my fault as I can condescending but most of the time people who have " major " issues with me and call me a troll just don't agree with me, thats fine as we can debate a point and then agree to disagree For example you and I have different views around whether the USA should have left Iraq, its okay and we agreed to disagree. This doesn't mean we wont debate other topics For me every single point I make is based on my own experience and what I have learnt, I can produce links to support any view I have ....of course this doesn't mean I am always right because sometimes our views are based on an expected outcome based on historical precedent ...and prognostication is not a definitive science Anyway Volo is an interesting character, people tell me he is a troll but at times he makes very cogent points that are true. So I continue to treat volo as I treat everyone else I debate with. If they say something I assume they being sincere and I will respond if I want to
  5. GD, this is a new low you....I'm very surprised. You quoting RT, we never quote RT ...you know its biased and full of anti-USA hyperbole
  6. No that would be extreme But we would look at actual actions and general Internet decorum..... I believe a slightly better moderated Internet is better for everyone
  7. I am perfectly happy to say I believe in freedom but to achieve real freedom we need rules These would simply be a few things that can or cannot be done in society...once these rules are followed we will achieve a happy and prosperous country
  8. I'm irritated by these Sanders supporters, they were asked to vote for Hillary Clinton. It was explained to them ....nicely They should be doing everything to ensure a Democratic victory.....why dont they understand they are weakening the Democrats possible win by voting for these smaller parties ? Why is that funny...its true? Lets just be honest in the interests of people understanding the political outcomes Many Bernie supporters were drawn to him because of his radical and populist ideals, he made certain political promises that were unrealistic and would have unintentionally harmed the economy of the USA but people still supported him because he is sincere and I think his views do resonate in a unique way with many Americans. But his entire view of the world and how to address social and economic inequality is on the opposite side of the political spectrum on almost everything Trump stands for....lets be clear, Sanders is a dichotomy to Trump So when Sanders asked his supporters to vote for Hilary its not just because he wants " Hilary to win " ...no its because to Sanders this is about an ideological clash....and Trumps vision of the USA should be one that all Sanders supporters should be opposed to. Since they did claim to want to change the world..... So yes, Sanders supporters should absolutely be voting for Hilary because of what Sanders stands for

  10. GD I agree with Pidesco on this one, you cant force people to prayer just because you religious This comment from the article summarizes my view "Coach Monken had no business telling my son and his Army teammates to get on their knees and pray a prayer to Jesus!" wrote one concerned parent. "My son was very upset about this. ... This violates the Constitution and to think it happened at West Point?" OK, I didn't see that line. That is different. Never let facts get in the way of the outrage machine. Its not just GD who sometimes does this, most people on this forum use emotion to make points when it comes to the current US political reality. Yes it gets frustrating at times but I can understand emotions are running high and this clouds most peoples logic I make my posts on fact and .logic ....I think i do at least

  12. No you wrong, I am not trolling and as you know that comment annoys me yet you always say it I accept what you saying about voting for Obama over Putin and yes that changes my view of your comment I was overly critical of your views in the previous post. I understand what you saying now and I support this
  13. I do feel sorry for her, on the health issues at least. On the political aspects she's again been her own worst enemy though. Right down to the cringe inducing photo op with the 'spontaneous' little girl outside Chelsea's apartment, as if pictures of that would displace her being half carried into a van from the news. What a surprise, you would find Putin a stronger leader Lets see ...Putin has destroyed the Russian economy, controls the media, has murdered journalists and illegally annexed parts of Georgia and Ukraine...yeah what a leader And you think he is more decisive than Obama, really? According to you and the Putin get- a-long-gang he was going to invade Turkey to teach them a lesson, actually defeat ISIS and " make a real difference in Syria because Putin knows how to get results " But he has been inconsistent in the bombing campaign, bombed hospitals and killed innocents and failed to win the war in Syria...and now they need the USA to end the war.....yes that's very decisive Zora Putin is strong leader in sense that his opposition in Russia is weak, his foreign policies are supported by significant economical and military power that he can use quite freely. But fact that he is strong leader don't mean that he is necessary good leader or leader that one should look as example how to run you country. But in foreign politics he should not be ignored or underestimated, because he is in control of significant resources and is in position to drive through his own agenda, which is why it is important (for president of USA) to understand what that agenda is and how you can negotiate with him. Putin is a dictator and again he has driven his economy into the ground Yes Russia has a role to play in global politics, Russia sits on the UNSC. But he hasn't exactly completed any military campaigns lately But how can anyone suggest he is a better leader than Obama is false ....Obama has not destroyed the US economy and has avoided getting the USA into numerous conflicts

  15. Yes I agree about 9/11 and not expecting people to have deep feelings It is over now and the new threat is ISIS.....and the USA is actually stronger now and has very effective information gathering like the Prism program, so the USA is effectively able to prevent almost all external terrorist attacks but not home grown
  16. Anyone who seriously thinks 9/11 was a conspiracy theory is either anti-Western and bitter Uninformed and ignorant Dillusiuonal or suffering from dementia Someone who just believes stupid conspiracy theories At this point in history anyone who doesn't believe in conspiracy theories is just misinformed. With all the information that has been leaked and all the awful things that government do you still trust them? I can understand skepticism and asking for evidence but just denying them on the merits of being a conspiracy theory... just go back to the MSM and vote for Hillary you chump. i honestly dont believe in any conspiracy theories.....well none I can think of? CS are just excuses where people become lazy and aren't interested in the truth. Why what CS should I consider?

  18. Oh sorry I misunderstood you, I meant to say Canada has every right to arrest people but it must now deport them You cant incarcerate people for crossing non-existent borders, its an extreme and pointless gesture
  19. Didnt you know this about me ? Why do you think I am so aware and supportive of gender equality You are not. You act towards women like an owner towards a dog. You think you know better and that they should obey you, because in your mind you are superior to them. You just feel good because you don't beat or starve them and you let them play in the yard. You are not nor you ever will think of women as an equal, independent human being. For you they are a charity case at best. No thats not at all what I think, your assessment is horribly inaccurate I consider women my equal in most things but very important to a balanced society I would 25 % of Trumps supporters are bigots Volo you need to accept this, its true......I'll be honest when I first came to these forums I had you on several bigotry lists like my "possible sexist list " and " habitual sexist list " but I took you off
  20. Guys to be honest none of you have ever worried about her health before, now this attention seems false She is fine, she has a very good doctor and if she really was sick and couldn't run she wouldn't
  21. Didnt you know this about me ? Why do you think I am so aware and supportive of gender equality
  22. I do think its fine because Canada is vast country of wilderness and very little border control ? Canada is the perfect Western country to take in about 1-2 million more refugees ....we both know you can place them anywhere and they wont be seen and due to the lack of infrastructure in most parts of Canada the refugees will feel right at home So yes Canada is not the same as the USA....sorry volo but I respect you too much to be dishonest
  23. Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time... No really...Britain is building a wall: http://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/britain-to-build-2m-great-wall-of-calais-to-keep-migrants-out-of-uk-a3338526.html See... This is perfectly reasonable, but its intention is not to keep migrants out but rather control access This is very important as the UK has a right to decide who can enter as a migrant
  24. It'd called an Elizabethan Collar. It looks like the lace ruffles people used to wear around their neck in 17th Century England. But think what an amazing life your dogs have had with you, the fishing and trips to Cold Creek ....the wilderness I doubt any dog could live better
