If Amber lives through this... she needs to spend about a year in jail.

Can't think of anything.

They would be doing better if they just boiled every issue down to a simple heads or tails solution to each problem and flipped a coin because so far they have been wrong right on down the line.

Al least with a random coins flip they would be more or less 50 -50 in the right - wrong box.

Even Clinton got quite a few things right

The Obama record is so bad it has to be intentional demolition of our economy, culture, national sovereignty and national security.

Well, they sent out a bunch of people to various websites including this one to tell us all we were panicking and stupid and all that.

So in the agenda sense, that was right because they spent that time spreading liberal ideas about a plague, helping ensure more good people and kids die. So there’s that.

The thing is, they refuse the very idea of a binary situation. It’s all simply shades of gray to be manipulated to power advantage.

The binary coin flip is in most cases a better solution because you get it right or wrong and move ahead depending on the outcome. Their method ensures the problem only worsens with no possible positive on the horizon because by definition there is no solution to be had.

And how many others have those 800 had contact with?

Isn’t it amazing just how freakin’ selfish she appears.

Yes, selfish. She knew she wasn’t feeling right and yet her material life was more consuming than the prospect of death?

Pray ...just pray for our Nation. Hearts, minds and souls so empty that the only thing that matters are the materials of this world.

What about the CDC person(s) who told her it was okay to take the flight to Cleveland?

And what about the CDC person(s) who defined the foolish protocols that led to this debacle?

In all seriousness. She is average today. She like most was told she was special, a unique little snowflake and got her participation trophies like everyone else.

The only thing that confuses me is why people are so unable to put the two together. We are in for grief because there are 200,000,000 more that share her sense of self importance.

This isn’t intended as an attack on you personally so please don’t take it that way. I mean in general people just don’t grasp it. Yesterday there was a similar discussion. Folks, we did this to ourselves when we refused to stop PC liberalism in it’s tracks ‘no matter what’ back in the 60s. And it just got worse from there. Earlier really, but the flower kids really got things rolling.

“As the tunnel came closer, they saw, at the edge of the sky far to the south, in a void of space and rock, a spot of living fire twisting in the wind. They did not know what it was and did not care to learn.

It is said that catastrophes are a matter of pure chance, and there were those who would have said that the passengers of the Comet were not guilty or responsible for the thing that happened to them.

The man in Bedroom A, Car No. 1, was a professor of sociology who taught that individual ability is of no consequence, that individual effort is futile, that an individual conscience is a useless luxury, that there is no individual mind or character or achievement, that everything is achieved collectively, and that it’s masses that count, not men.

The man in Roomette 7, Car No. 2, was a journalist who wrote that it is proper and moral to use compulsion ‘for a good cause’ who believed that he had the right to unleash physical force upon others - to wreck lives, throttle ambitions, strangle desires, violate convictions, to imprison, to despoil, to murder - for the sake of whatever he chose to consider as his own idea of ‘a good cause’,which did not even have to be an idea, since he had never defined what he regarded as the good, but had merely stated that he went by ‘a feeling’ -a feeling unrestrained by any knowledge, since he considered emotion superior to knowledge and relied soley on his own ‘good intentions’ and on the power of a gun.

The woman in Roomette 10, Car No.3, was an elderly schoolteacher who had spent her life turning class after class of helpless children into miserable cowards, by teaching them that the will of the majority is the only standard of good and evil, and that a majority may do anything it pleases, that they must not assert their own personalities, but must do as others were doing.

The man in Drawing Room B, Car No. 4, was a newspaper publisher who believed that mend are evil by nature and unfit for freedom, that their basic interests, if left unchecked, are to lie, to rob and murder one another - and, therefore, men must be ruled by means of lies, robbery and murder, which must be made the exclusive privilege of the rules, for the purpose of forcing men to work, teaching them to be moral and keeping them within the bounds of order and justice.

The man in Bedroom H, Car No. 5, was a businessman who had acquired his business, an ore mine, with the help of a government loan, under the Equalization of Opportunity Bill.

The man in Drawing Room A, Car No 6, was a financier who had made a fortune by buying ‘frozen’ railway bonds and getting his friends in Washington to ‘defreeze’ them.

The man in Seat 5, Car No.7, was a worker who believed that he had “a right” to a job, whether his employer wanted him or not.

The woman in Roomette 6, Car no. 8, was a lecturer who believed that, as a consumer, she had “a right” to transportation, whether the railroad people wished to provide it or not.

The man in Roomette 2, Car No. 9, was a professor of economics who advocated the abolition of private property, explaining that intelligence plays no part in industrial production, that man’s mind is conditioned by material tools, that anybody can run a factory or a railroad and it’s only a matter of seizing the machinery.

The woman in Bedroom D, Car No. 10, was a mother who had put her two children to sleep in the berth above her, carefully tucking them in, protecting them from drafts and jolts; a mother whose husband held a government job enforcing directives, which she defended by saying, ‘I don’t care, it’s only the rich that they hurt. After all, I must think of my children.’

The man in Roomette 3, Car No. 11, was a sniveling little neurotic who wrote cheap little plays into which, as a social message, he inserted cowardly little obscenities to the effect that all businessmen were scoundrels.

The woman in Roomette 9, Car No. 12, was a housewife who believed that she had the right to elect politicians, of whom she knew nothing, to control giant industries, of which she had no knowledge.

The man in Bedroom F, Car No.13, was a lawyer who had said, ‘Me? I’ll find a way to get along under any political system.’

The man in Bedroom A, Car No.14, was a professor of philosophy who taught that there is no mind - how do you know that the tunnel is dangerous? - no reality - how can you prove that the tunnel exists? - no logic - why do you claim that trains cannot move without motive power? - no principles - why should you be bound by the laws of cause and effect? - no rights - why shouldn’t you attach men to their jobs by force? - no morality - what’s moral about running a railroad? - no absolutes - what difference does it make to you whether you live or die anyway?. He taught that we know nothing - why oppose the orders of your superiors? - that we can never be certain of anything - how do you know you’re right? - that we must act on the expediency of the moment - you don’t want to risk your job do you?

The man in Drawing Room B, Car No.15, was an heir who had inherited his fortune, and who had kept repeating, ‘Why should Rearden be the only one permitted to manufacture Rearden Metal?’

The man in Bedroom A, Car no. 16, was a humanitarian who had said, ‘The men of ability? I do not care what or if they are made to suffer. They must be penalized in order to support the incompetent. Frankly, I do not care whether this is just or not. I take pride in not caring to grant any justice to the able, where mercy to the needy is concerned.’

These passengers were awake; there was not a man aboard the train who did not share one or more of their ideas. As the train went into the tunnel, the flame of Wyatt’s Torch was the last thing they saw on earth.”
- Ayn Rand, “Atlas Shrugged”, p566-568

Not unless she is preceded by Barack Obama and the relevant members of is cabinet.

Keep your eye on the ball.

She isn't the Won.

Here is Obama and his "Senior Advisers" learning how to flip a coin

Obama:....:OK I got it now."

Heads.....we have Wagu Beef for lunch

Tails:....we have Lobster for lunch

Senior Adviser No 1:....very good Mr President

Other advisers (to self)....What a dummy.

These effing idiots told a nurse that was known to be potentially exposed to Ebola that it was all right to get on an airplane and fly to Ohio because her new onset fever was 99.4 and not 100.5. I have been an ER nurse for a long time. I can not tell you how many times I have rechecked a questionable low grade fever with a different thermometer and a little more attention to detail and then found the actual temperature to be much higher. These dumb a55es are still maintaining that Ebola can’t travel through the air when highly qualified scientists have already demonstrated that it can and does. They have told medical staff that an N95 mask is adequate even though it is well known that a positive air pressure mask is far more effective and they have asserted that people with Ebola were safe to be treated in a non-level 4 containment facility which has never been the policy for high consequence pathogens like Ebola. They couldn’t be more incompetent if they tried.
