and that says a terrifying amount about our elected officials.

Indeed. I shudder to think of all the things we don't know about, and never will.

“It is apparent, however, that (0BAMA) offered them something to take on our debt. What else do we have to offer?”

What collateral is left?

Even if true it would not be worth the paper its written on.

This has been a fear of mine for years when all this “buy our debt” business started. When our money was worthless, land would have to be bartered next.

You are making a mistake, jiggyboy, by personalizing your comment. I wrote a disclaimer at top.

If you would like to clean up your language and tell us why LiveLeak is not credible, we are listening.....

I’m surprised it’s still up too, if you say it has been pulled before.

Any well-informed, experienced, FReeper is welcome to peruse my posts, links and articles posted. I rarely, if ever, post rumors.

This was sent to me by someone who sends quality material. However, I also hope it proves untrue. But there is a lot of foreign ownership going on in this country, as we learned in the Dubai Ports debacle.

You’re very new here, MeganC, and maybe should do a bit more reading and less posting until you learn the procedures. In fact, when it comes to BS, a newbie trying to reach the moderator sets off some meters as well.

Maybe in your case, it’s the crackpot looking in the mirror.

“You are not welcome to post to me or to any thread that I post.”

Okay. I’ll make a note of it. Why don’t you share what on earth has you in a snit? Be specific. I agreed with you. How did I step on your toes?

So, that’s news to me...we can actually demand that someone not post on an entire thread? Wow.

Perhaps you could check the comments on the article at the site itself.

Maybe they’re a rumor site. I like to think we aren’t. Your CYA disclaimer just means you’re apologizing for posting crap. It doesn’t mean we should excuse you for posting crap.

La Enchiladita flamed to AuntB:
"You are not welcome to post to me or to any thread that I post."

La Enchiladita, you are not welcome to post on the Internet that I read from. ;-)
