Chris Hedges: "No Outcry Within Media" on NDAA

Oh common, Current isn't on allot of providers, and if it is you have to pay more, though it comes standard on a few... And not everyone has decent internet access....

Seems like yesterday!!! =(

I am sad to say I already think it now.

Wouldn't that be Great??? =(

Well, the ironic thing is WE DO! ;)

That one guy that's 74 years old and spouts the same things BO did??? =(

Yup...and the difference is his record matches the words...BO's didn't and, obviously, continues to not

Awww, C'mon, do you really Trust a 74 year old man to be worthy of sitting in the seat as POTUS??? He's so Darned Old I am sure he forgets half the things he says... I am not against your choice, I just look at all that is at stake...

The age thing really does not bother me all that much. The issues at hand are much more important than worrying whether or not the President is going to need Depends.

Yes but a younger man basically said the same thing... =)

Perhaps You have not been paying attention??? BO said he would end the wars and close Gitmo, he was also leaning as though he would legalize marijuana... None of which have happened... =(

Fair enough, I aplogize for my accusation and will edit comment above... =)

Some folks are just that way I guess... Been happening a lot lately, I mean if this is a place to talk about the issues, I would prefer someone tells me Why they disagree and Why they choose to down my comment... At least You asked, so I Tip my Hat to you... =)

Get a good VP too just in case.

Hey I agree, I read that as well... I think it would surely Help to do away with the voting, I can see it for posts, but on comments it only invites Childish Behavior, but that's just my opinion... =)

And Thanks, I am always on the lookout for new things to post... =)
Which would be a Waste of time if Folks didn't drop by to check them out... =)

Someone once said we need to give up some of our Civil Liberties for our own safety... I forget who that was... =(

(sarcasm) =)

Here's the real truth...

"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

Benjamin Franklin

He was a Very Wise Man Leen... =))=

Indeed he was, KB.

Those who would give up Essential Liberty
to purchase a little Temporary Safety,
deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.
Sometimes attributed to Ben Franklin, sometimes Thomas Jefferson, either way it needs to be said today over and over.

I agree... =)

Funny how they think we forgot about Habeus Corpus... =(

most of my neighbors can't spell Habeus Corpus
they only know about you get out jail free card and do not pass GO

Bastards!!! =(

Thanks chew_chew, odd how we have to leave this up to a journalist, I guess that's why the one's that do not follow the party line are so Villified...??? =))=

I am sorry to hear this Progresshiv, I thought that was still lingering, have you found other employment yet??? Spring is here and I am forecasting many protests, what they will accomplish I am not sure of... =(

I hope you keep your eyes open, did you receive any severance pay??? I agree and Hate saying it but that is indeed what it will come to before there is any change... In the mean time they look down their nose at us and laugh... I am all for Peaceful Protest, but as we have clearly seen it is nothing but wall paper... =(

Good Luck Progresshiv... =)

Damn I was hoping for some Good News... =( Would you have the unemployment benefit if you refuse to do that class??? Or would they consider that job abandonment???

I hope you're wrong but I fear you are right.

Man they really have you over a Barrel, or should I say at the end of the Barrel... I have said time and again that I too feel my employer is out to Kill me... More work than can be done in an 8 hour period, with no chances of a raise even though I have been here for 5 years and hold many hats... Once I am up to date on my Production the owner moves the Goal Posts on me... I will never understand his mentality, I will never understand how the person that makes sure all production needs are met so the production floor has work to do is denied the hours to stay ahead of the game.... I don't know any teachers myself but I do send my Best Wishes, it's gotta be very hard on you.... =(

I don't know Friend, there are 12 million that are willing to work for less... =(

boy are we fooled or what? Soon we will be paying them for a job, oh wait we are with our existence here...call it life or whatever, they control what it can be and Progressiv is right, "ENOUGH of this bullshit!"

That is outrageous !

I have to agree, protests are not going to work at this stage of the corruption and deceit ! When every branch of your government is against you...well...what's left , but revolt.

I agree, but how do we turn it around... =((=

I'd like to frame this comment and hang it on my wall. I'd also like to have a key-macro that posts it automatically to emails and senseless comments I receive--comments on how we should just trust our leaders; that those leaders and what has obviously become a police state here; that they have our best interest at heart.
Your comment is a reminder to all of us that we as a people must always question, always be involved and never cower.

I think one of them asks or demands that the People rise against the government when they are out of hand, doesn't it??? I don't have the time right now to look for it, but I know it exists.... =)

Jefferson's quote, Thanks I knew I heard this before, but was not sure where... =)

The guarantees vanish on a daily basis. The constitution is quickly being rendered impotent. Recent Case-in-point; the latest Supreme Court ruling which allows invasive search upon arrest.

Sad but True... =(

They Did??? I never knew that, as I was not even walking in that time period, but thanks for letting me know, I need to check this out... Perhaps a Link that would make it easy for me??? =)

President Carter tried mightily to advance alternatives to oil, clean up our environment, bring sense to the insane budget waste, and clean up elections. He was attached non stop by the media after he started taking away some of the stupid perks the house and senate had going. Just for starters--he had no recession during his administration but if we check the headlines from that and preceding times you'll learn that he was a financial failure-according to all the national media. Raygun, who had several recessions is praised as a financial wizard despite the Savings & Loan Scam in which the Bush family stole to the tune of hundreds of millions! Carter was ahead of his times and honest--a sure death nell with Republicans-----

Thanks for sharing Frosty46, it means alot... I did not know about the Crime Family stealing all these millions... Bastards have been corrupt forever I guess??? =(

I remember that . Iran Contra scandal was ALL about Ending the Jimmy Carter Presidency .

That, the Iran Contra-drug smuggling scam run by Ollie North came after President Carter. That was the greatest American hero to ever walk this planet, The Ronald Raygun Administration. Yes smuggling drugs into the United States to fund an illegal war in South America--what a true American Hero!
Actually Raygun was a monster of the first order--I know it personally!

Just since the written word became popular--------

Still Not Coool... =(

Well at least you are able to view this one here cherry5000... =)

Quite Welcome... Maybe I should start a RT News group and paste the news there everyday??? =)
