The Brits knew enough to ban the bomber. Did we know what the Brits did? If so, why’d we let the guy in? If not, why the heck didn’t we know what the Brits knew?
Obama and his buddies are command economists.
I watched Lieberman on FNS .. . he’s a liberal on all things EXCEPT national security.
Yes, we definitely have! We need to explain this to all of our acquaintances.
I am listening to the book “The Tipping Point” by Malcolm Gladwell, where he identifies that certain people have a much more powerful effect on situations than other people. One example: Paul Revere “knew everybody”, so when he went on his ride, he not only knew which doors to knock on to spread his message most efficiently, his message was received with respect for its validity.
We all must be Paul Reveres to the best of our ability. The next decade will make or break our civilization.
Zero and the Democrats will have to do something if this debacle of a healthcare plan goes through. Already there are clinics and hospitals springing up outside the USA, and it appears more are planned.
Democrats are outsourcing our healthcare to other countries. I guess thewe are more jobs Americans just won’t do.
Problem is leadership comes into question when event after event happens. The country falls into recession after recession due to mismanagement,overspending, obamcare disaster,no border controls etc., etc.
At what point,sooner or later,do you have to ask the question does this ship steer by itself or is there really a capt. aboard?
thewe = these
Oops. Sorry.
She has already been warned about you and you are now on the threat list,its a good thing you are snowed in most of the time.(Merry Christmas anyway)
On FOX, Jim DeMint - Brings up unionizing/collective bargaining of Airport Security personnel as being a top priority of obama administration and what a bad move that is.
Ohhhhh.... Not nice!
Guess I’ll go outside and shovel the snow now. Rats.
Oh come ON! Computer programs can do amazing things- those names can (I thought that was the whole point of the list) be run through the data base whenever a reservation is made- then alerted and checked against other similar names and/or other watch lists.
Someone needs to ask Wallace WTH he thinks is the whole idea behind a list in the first place..
The apologists are out in force, eh?
Anyone commenting yet on why the president hasn't seen fit to make a statement to the citizens yet? Not a word.
I heard on the radio an estimate last week,can't recall where, that if all goes to plan the obama govt. could take over more than 50% of our economy with all their reckless if not evil power grabs.
No. My typical sources don't have this information. Once the guests are established, I think then is when they come out with the panels. I suppose I could poke around for and hour or so Sunday morning to find it, but I'm too busy also.
We'll have ro continue to rely on the reporting that other FReepers do here on this thread.
Yeah I think about that all the time as I roll in the snow outside my front door. Good morning Carley hope Santa was good to you as well.
Jake Tapper is doing well I think. I think he’d make a good new host.
Mitch McConnell is side-stepping whether he will promise to un-do this healthcare bill if more Republicans are elected in 2010.
Just look at the cities that have had democrat leadership for decades. They are failing big time, but dems NEVER claim any responsibility for the failures. All problems have external causes, such as ‘discrimination’; all action is to have another ‘study’, and to ask for more money.
CSPAN has two very old men on, who remind me of the guys in the balcony on Muppets shows. They are both excusing Obama from all responsibility for this year’s downslide in so many ways.
Specter, FOX, doesn’t think there are any constitutional issues with the mandate forcing folks to buy insurance. Brings up DeMint’s “Waterloo” comment and what “bad form” that is.
Demint - We didn’t want to break the Pres, wanted to break the momentum of his policies. Answering Specter’s comments about being partisan, what partanship? Dem’s wouldn’t allow any Republicans to have any input in the health care reform bill.
Menendez tries to blame the Bush era for all the current defecits. LOL, Wallace reminds him of all the spending they signed up for under obama. Menendez essentially says well, we had to because of everything we inheritied.
Shelby - We’re on a financial disaster path.
The most over-exposed President in the history of the country didn't want to "jump in front of a camera"?
Guess dems have tired of putting effort into their lies... a scary new low.
