I thought we had confirmation of premium being available for less than what you quoted. And I checked the site for my area and it is absolutely dead on. But hey, whatever you say.

웃 reacted to one...two...tree in Fox News Flubs Stats To Make Obama’s Record Look Horrible
Fox News compares apples to rotten oranges to make it appear as if Barack Obama has presided over a near-doubling of the ranks of the unemployed.
Media Matters first spotted the inconsistency. Simply put, Fox & Friends juxtaposed unemployment in January 2009 — calculated to measure the number of unemployed people actively looking for work — with a different measure of unemployment in August 2012, calculated to include disaffected and marginally attached workers.
A direct comparison is less misleading, but also less eye-popping.
The standard measure of unemployment (U-3) when Obama took office was 7.9 percent. Now it’s 8.1 percent.
The broader measure of unemployment (U-6) when Obama took office was 14.2 percent. Now it’s 14.7 percent.
Here’s how Fox mixed and matched the figures:
Using January 2009 figures of any kind papers over the fact that the economy (and thus the unemployment rate) was in free fall when Obama took office. An email to a Fox spokesperson was not immediately returned.

You've been had, very easily I might add. People with your mindset are the problem.

By deflecting the blame to anyone other than the scum that carry out these attacks you justify their actions. That's exactly what you have done with your "Thank you GWB" comment.

Don't forget Israel. I'm sure you can find some way to spread the blame to everyone except the lowlife scum who carry out these attacks.

웃 reacted to mawilson in GREEK NEO-NAZIS ATTACK IMMIGRANT VENDORS OUTSIDE ATHENS: BYSTANDERS KEEP WALKING
There's no contradiction in his post, just varying degrees of guesswork.
He'll be damned if it's less than 50%. Damned - willing to be condemned to eternal punishment in hell - that's how confident he is that at least 50% of Americans have no clue.
Without having to put his soul on the line, he's guessing the actual number is between 70 and 95%.
He's so confident it's close to 95% that he is willing to bet money on it.

1/4th of Americans don't know why we celebrate the 4th of July.
And about 1/10 think we won independence from either France, China, Mexico, Spain, or Japan.
Your average American would not know the years we were in WWI or WWII, or who our allies or enemies were.
A friend of mine in high school (actually two friends) didn't know our first president. Now they were the extreme, I knew they weren't smart. One said George Jefferson, the other said George Clinton!
I'll be damned if more than 1/2 knew what Kristallnacht was. My guess is somewhere between 70 and 95% would have no idea what the hell you were talking about. Probably closer to 95% than 70.

If only an Islamic terrorist attack looked like this.
"In the most recent example of Golden Dawn’s brazen violence, the party released a video of its members destroying the stands of immigrant workers in the city of Rafina, near Athens, Friday night."

That sounds real cool until you realize that half the medicaid beneficiaries are children and the remainder are mainly old folk in nursing homes. They can't wipe their own ####### but sure, let them pick up garbage.

웃 reacted to Mr. Big Dog in Romney Gets No Bounce From Last Week's GOP Convention
If Obama wins re-election, he will win because the country rejects the GOP platform. Republicans will either understand that or pay the price in 2014. And possibly again in 2016.

You might have been doing better. But the economy wasn't. That's not an opinion. That's a fact.

웃 reacted to james&olya in Romney Gets No Bounce From Last Week's GOP Convention
His bald-faced BS is so teapublican! When the leaders and nominees themselves feel free to just make things up and engage in a sort of 'Alice in Wonderland' kind of opposite definitions it is no wonder that other adherents of the movement will feel little restraint from doing likewise. It does make intelligent discussion of the issues difficult! Maybe that is the whole point. Didn't someone once say something like "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance than baffle them with bullsh!t"!

Not important unless they kill in the name of atheism..
If a catholic guy or atheist guy kills his wife because he caught her cheating it had nothing to do with religion.
If people kill on religious grounds or organize killings/destruction through religions means that's a different story.
