Talking about the Employee Free Choice Act today.

Hi Jeff,
Just curious why we haven’t heard more re the AP story last July about the removal of 550 metric tons of “Yellowcake” from Iraq. Is there a possibility that the left-wing media was not much interested in getting the word out?

JM Bell on April 8, 2009 at 11:26 am

Keith – Send me a link, please. I missed it.

Keith Cavanaugh on June 6, 2009 at 9:35 pm

Hi Jeff,
Here you are–wow, did you post that request on April 8th? I just saw it tonight – June 6, 2009. Anyway, better late than never–please see the link below. I would be interested in your response.

Jeff, We need alternative sources of energy, but cap and trade is not the method.
All the money electric companys, businesses, and all entities that use energy will be forced to pay money. It will all go to the federal government, so they can afford all their spending programs that are coming down the line.
It is estimated that just our electric bill will eventually go up some 49 to 85 %.
Car gas will go up perhaps 77 cents per gallon. Those are only two and all because of this bill.
It is a scam that taxes anyone who uses energy or purchases any thing, because all purchased items prices will go up. Your democratic friends in congress who are morgaging this country for the next three generations to pay off the debt of borrowing and printing.
At 3:00 AM yesterday morining a 300 page amendment was stuck on to the bill which not one congressan read. It seems to be typical of this jammed through bills. Most all of which do nothing postive, but do hurt the economy and citizens.
I personally thing that any global warming is the sun which changes all the time.
In fact we are now in a cooling spell.
Thanks
David

David – This post is three months old.

I’d like to respond to everything you wrote, but, as you site not one single source, I’m not going to.

In addition – what you think vs. what hundreds of scientists KNOW – doesn’t carry a lot of weight. Nor should it. I think I ought to be King of America – but you don’t see me throwing that nugget around like it should mean something to anyone but me.

AND – anyone who thinks I ought to be King of America is an idiot.

So – cap and trade isn’t your thing – yet you give no alternative. What’s the point of writing all those words?

Keith Cavanaugh on June 28, 2009 at 9:19 pm

Jeff,
So, have you looked at the web site that I provided that shows the AP story reported on CSNBC regarding the 550 tons of yellow cake found in Iraq about a year ago?

Hi Jeff,

Here is just one web site you might want to check out–it represents at least 9,000 scientists who disagree with the administration’s position on global warming:

In “Climate Change Reconsidered: The 2009 Report of the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change (NIPCC),” coauthors Dr. S. Fred Singer and Dr. Craig Idso and 35 contributors and reviewers present an authoritative and detailed rebuttal of the findings of the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), on which the Obama Administration and Democrats in Congress rely for their regulatory proposals.
The group disputes not only the theory of climate change, but many of the facts underlying it.
More than 9,000 scholars with doctorates in scientific disciplines have signed a petition of support.

(You can read their report, Climate Change Reconsidered, at http://www.nipccreport.org.)

Hey, that Che Guevara caller was actually right about people in the Obama administration and some of his supporters, embracing socialist, even communist principles.

Mark Lloyd, & Cass Sunstein have made very socialist/communist leanings

Think what you will about the source, but don’t shoot the messenger.

Quotes directly from Obamas book:

http://www.city-data.com/forum/elections/476925-quotes-obamas-book-1-i-choose.html

Tell me who you’re with and I’ll tell you who you are. Obama surrounds himself with people that embrace socialist/communist ideals. Oh and another comment you made that socialism and communism are not related, you may want to read wiki on it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communism

The term “Socialist” is mentioned 27 times in the wikipedia and “socialism” is mentioned 21 times in that same definition. In fact, here’s a direct quote:

“Forerunners of communist ideas existed in antiquity and particularly in the 18th and early 19th century France, with thinkers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the more radical Gracchus Babeuf. Radical egalitarianism then emerged as a significant political power in the first half of 19th century in Western Europe. In the world shaped by the Industrial Revolution and the French Revolution, the newly established political left included many various political and intellectual movements, which are the direct ancestors of today’s communism and socialism – these two then newly minted words were almost interchangeable at the time – and of anarchism or anarcho-communism.”

So while you were technically right that Socialism and Communism are different in their origins, their merger made them interrelated as it has been since The Bolshevik revolution.

So I think you owe Mike a public apology, as he was right, and I wonder what comments you muted out of his statements while you had him in the queue.

JM Bell on October 10, 2009 at 6:06 pm

Bob – seriously – how hard is it to find the front page of the blog and post your manifestos where someone might see them?

AND I didn’t mute anything – I hung up on him. That’s different.

So – in parting – according to your thinking up there, you like wearing diapers and being spanked by expensive New Orleans whores (I mean, Vitter does, so that means that all Republicans do – right?) Well, I think you’re a giant perv – but – as long as it isn’t hurting anyone else.

Bob on October 11, 2009 at 2:17 pm

Don’t change the subject. If you’re going to argue, argue the topic at hand. Don’t dredge up the actions of other politicians as a distraction to your statement that NOT ONE of Obama’s czars or vehement supporters praise Castro, and Che’ Guevara. If you want to go that route, I could bring up Chappaquiddick, and Ted Kennedy, etc. but I’m not going to. I look forward to your feedback on the links I posted.

Bob on October 18, 2009 at 12:54 pm

Hmm it’s been 8 days and no mention of the sources I listed. Ignoring the rest of the story are we? Figures. Your show blows. You’re an ignorant puppet to the DNC and the left wing fringe and I’ll bet $1.00 that you delete this posting because you’re fine as long as people agree with you but when they disagree and post good proof of claims, you just casually look the other way. You suck. You’re a waste of spirit. Lame.

JM Bell on October 19, 2009 at 10:11 pm

1 – you owe me a dollar
2 – you’re still in March, you tool. When you can figure out where the current page is, maybe you’ll get your answers.

So … I did look at all of your stuff and it’s thin. I can call you a facist because I assume that anyone who votes Republican wants to kill off everyone who isn’t white and lives below the poverty line. It doesn’t mean it’s true, just accurate in a couple of cases.

You can’t make a case based on a couple of guys. If I could do that – we’re back to you in diapers.

AND you sure as shit can’t use fkn Wikipedia as a fkn source, you gigantic asshat.

bob on November 2, 2009 at 2:00 pm

Aww how cute you can call me names like “tool” and “asshat” how mature and adult like of you. Somehow its my fault that your homepage opens you up to March. Sounds like your site needs to advance beyond 1999 standards. I’ve had more meaningful and insightful debates on merit with people far more resourceful and intelligent than you. But its good to see that Utahs posterboy for liberal thought is so darn snippy. Good luck to the loony left in the upcoming elections. A lot of people are getting fired.

bob on November 2, 2009 at 2:03 pm

Oh and another thing what’s wrong with wikipedia? Oh I know Jorge Dubya Boosh must run it, so it must be wrong. Lmao.
