In the most recent GOP debate, a resolved Ron Paul received groans and boos from the crowd for attempting to explain the "just war" principle of using military for defense only when referring to Iran. He then received an awkward silence when he explained that war should only be acceptable if the people's representatives vote for it per the Constitution. Similarly, he heard crickets with his historical perspective of the USSR's thousands of proven nuclear warheads pointed at America to show what little threat Iran actually poses. Finally, he tried to explain that war is a bad idea economically; that we simply can't afford it.
Nothing seemed to sway much of the audience. They only see good and evil. And they've been told Iran and Syria are evil. Therefore, the evil doers must be dealt with through death and destruction like all the other GOP candidates advocate.
By the way, the Obama Administration supports the exact same war mongering as is obvious by the State Department's rhetoric and actions outlined above.
Somehow the masses, who are the only ones who can stop the bloodshed, continue to buy the propaganda and rubber stamp the murderous aggressive wars. The gullibility of the masses has surpassed embarrassing levels, and unless there is a rapid awakening, we are surely headed for blood....;}
This seems to happen with humans also: Paul Buchheit, from DePaul University, revealed, From 1980 to 2006 the richest 1% of America tripled their after-tax percentage of our nations total income, while the bottom 90% have seen their share drop over 20%. Robert Freeman added, Between 2002 and 2006, it was even worse: an astounding three-quarters of all the economys growth was captured by the top 1%.
This sounds exactly like the kind of hierarchical behavior observed in the animal kingdom when social species get stressed. If there is not enough to go around, resources that are available are concentrated in the hands of those at the top of the pyramid, marginalizing those at the bottom of the pyramid. If total resources are inadequate, population at the bottom of the pyramid is reduced, leaving those at the top untouched.
In this post, I discuss some of the issues raised by Dilworth and the parallels I see with humans. I also add a perspective of hope....
CHUCK CASTO [Deputy Regional Administrator]: [...] if we end up with a molten core and then you talk about the time for the concrete to disassociate, you know, that NUREG says it's
a couple of inches an hour,
you know. And, of course, that Mark 1 containment is the worst one of all the containments we have, and it's literally, you know, this NUREG tells you that in a station blackout you're going to lose containment. There's no doubt about it.

Only about 8 feet of concrete to eat through at 2 inches an hour, I would imagine once it hits earth it travels much more rapidly.
love you short quips though, you gotta great sense of humour

I swear, Kevin, there have been days when I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

" Like a greasy loan shark working for a hardboiled mob cartel, World Banks M.O. is to lend large capital packages (made with money or credit created out of thin air) which the target country and its government obviously cannot afford to pay back. These loans often stipulate that the country relinquish control of its natural resources, the true wealth of the nation, over to international corporate bodies for management. Through this process, World Bank removes competition from a market and hands designated companies (globalist front-companies) the keys to the kingdom. ...

In March of 2000, the forum made the following statement:
Water is an economic good and its economic value should be recognized in the allocation of scarce water resources to competing uses. While this should not prevent people from meeting their basic needs for water services at affordable prices, the price for water must be set at a level that encourages conservation and wise use...
During the assault on the rebel stronghold in the Homs district of Bab Amr, the Syrian army took more than 1,500 prisoners, mostly foreigners. Of these, a dozen French nationals requested the status of prisoner of war, refusing to give their identity, rank and unit of assignment. One of them is a Colonel working for the DGSE transmission service.
Chief Judge Richard Cebull, a George W. Bush appointee to the federal district court in Montana, admitted yesterday to sending a racist email forward comparing President Obamas conception to sex with a dog:
A little boy said to his mother; Mommy, how come Im black and youre white? the email joke reads. His mother replied, Dont even go there Barack! From what I can remember about that party, youre lucky you dont bark! [...]
Cebull said his brother initially sent him the email, which he forwarded to six of his old buddies and acquaintances.
He admitted that he read the email and intended to send it to his friends.
The only reason I can explain it to you is I am not a fan of our president, but this goes beyond not being a fan, Cebull said. I didnt send it as racist, although thats what it is. I sent it out because its anti-Obama.
A 25-point gap now separates supporters and opponents of marriage equality in California, with 59 percent of residents backing same-sex marriage and just 34 percent opposing it, a new Field survey finds. This represents the largest margin of support for the issue in the three-plus decades the Field Poll has been asking the question
These people are clueless.....they are your leaders.....8D
"Which route will Israel choose?
It will go over Syria. There would be hell to pay if Israel went over Turkey or Jordan. If the Saudis permitted it, the Iranians would retaliate by assassinating Saudis all over the world. So it will be Syria. This is especially true as the country is in chaos today.
Will Syria attempt to shoot down Israeli aircraft flying over its territory?
Yes, it has surface-to-air capability and it also has MiG-23 and MiG-27 fighters. The Israelis will escort their bombers over Syria with their F16s. These fighters will wipe out anything that Syria puts up. The ground-based defenses are old, and no doubt, poorly manned these days.
1) Russia is right next to it's Syrian Counterparts with these S-300 Systems.
1a)Russia from it's base in Tartarus, plus contacts in the Pentagon/WH will know the instant Israel Launches.
2)Syria is not in trouble from it's 'war with hillary's State Dept Mercs. Being encircled and rounded up as I type.
3) Most importantly of All, Iran will KNOW that Israel is coming. From Over a 1000 miles away.
3a)They will be ready....;}
4) Note how the Above casually dismiss Iraq Airspace as a hindrance? That going over Jordan will have 'more hell to pay' than going over Iraq?
Like the Tsar of Russia July 1914...just clueless.
"As of today, Israel officially has only thirty of these bunker bombs. It has a total of 100 F15 attack bombers, so it needs more bombs to fully utilize their strike capability. Look for a sign on this. If the US agrees to supply more bombs, the timing is close"...8D
The LULZ here is that somehow the USSA thinks these diplomatic niceties of looking somewhere, aNywhere but at Israel when it attacks will absolve it of any War making v Iran.
Iran will immediately attack the USSA and it's infrastructure.
THIS is when you get the ' no one could've predicted this' spontaneous street uprisings in Amerika...
" Unbelievable Stress of Making "Only" $200,000 After Taxes
People who have nothing to eat, no job, and are about to be tossed out of their homes in foreclosure, really do not know what stress is.
To fully appreciate stress, please consider the sorry "plights" of Andrew Schiff, marketing director for Euro Pacific Capital, Daniel Arbeeny, a Wall Street headhunter, and hedge-fund manager Richard Scheiner....
People who dont have money dont understand the stress, said Alan Dlugash, a partner at accounting firm Marks Paneth & Shron LLP in New York who specializes in financial planning for the wealthy. Could you imagine what its like to say I got three kids in private school, I have to think about pulling them out? How do you do that?
Wall Streets cash bonus pool fell by 14 percent last year to $19.7 billion, the lowest since 2008, according to projections by New York state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli.
Its a disaster, said Ilana Weinstein, chief executive officer of New York-based search firm IDW Group LLC.

Yes, the establishment will counter-attack and use any means to remain in power and control but their days are numbered. Like Goebbels and the Berlin propaganda in early 1945, they can still issue proclamations, enact decrees and frighten the citizens but soon a large enough percentage of the electorate will know the truth. The emperor has no clothes and the rulers as well as the power elites hiding behind the scenes are frightened....
very frightened. And listening to the likes of Gen McCaffrey and his ilk.
And how many days until the Gulf Coast evacuation?

"Our forefathers must be turning over in their graves right now to know that a British company can come over here and recklessly and blatantly pillage our Gulf, ruin it, and then try to play technicality games to get out of having to pay!! Why do I even have to write this letter to begin with? Where is the justice? Where is the justice for the 11 men who died on the rig? Where is the justice for my friend, my family, and the wildlife??
Want to go back to talkin' about those poor fetuses now?
So, no real money was handed over, no cries of pain from Berlin, no let-up in the Greece is dead leaks by the IMF, no political kudos seen by Venizelos in staying to take the credit for Greek salvation, no action by Athens on the is and ts of the Brussels Accord, and no accusations from the Troika about that. But a concerted push for Berlin to get a firm grip on the eurogroup.
That all adds up, I think, to something both nasty and imminent..."

The discrepancies pertain to verbal claims that exposure to COREXIT, the dispersant selected by BP and approved by the EPA to treat the oil, was safe, and the health problems actually associated with COREXIT listed in a BP manual.
So despite the fact that BP officials knew the severe health risks tied to Corexit, they told cleanup workers they had absolutely nothing to fear from the dispersant.
The company manual exposes BPs complete and utter disregard for the safety of cleanup crews that spent months working the waters in the spring and summer of 2010. This key piece of evidence may very well provide the impetus for sick cleanup workers many of them commercial fishermen and charter boat captains to opt out of the $7.8 billion class settlement and to sue BP on an individual basis.
The manual lists symptoms of exposure, such as damage to the central nervous system, chemical pneumonia, upper respiratory problems and injury to the kidney, liver or red blood cells (hemolysis). Further, the manual recognizes that crude oil contains benzene and other hazardous chemicals that can cause cancer.
People are sick and dying all along the Gulf Coast. We have a serious situation on our hands that has been largely overlooked by the national media and our elected officials in Washington. "
I have terrible chest pain, at times I cant seem to get enough oxygen, and Im constantly tired with pains all over my body, Aguinaga explained, At times Im pissing blood, vomiting dark brown stuff, and every pore of my body is dispensing water. Aguinagas health has been in dramatic decline.
And Aguinagas friend Vallian is now dead.
After we got back from our vacation in Florida, Merrick went to work for a company contracted by BP to clean up oil in Grand Isle, Louisiana, Aguinaga said of his 33-year-old physically fit friend.
Aside from some gloves, BP provided no personal protection for them. He worked for them for two weeks and then died on August 23. He had just got his first paycheck, and it was in his wallet, uncashed, when he died.
Tragically, there are thousands of accounts just like that of Steven Aguinaga. ....;}
The BP manual states that COREXIT is a chronic and acute health hazard under EPA standards, and its toxicity is so severe that special protective equipment and clothing are necessities. But LEAN and GAP have received numerous reports that when cleanup workers sought additional safety equipment, such as respirators donated by LEAN, they were threatened with termination.....
Heres the link to both the bombshell BP manual and the GAP/LEAN letter:
See, the problem is that once you've gone ignorant, you don't know what to pay attention to anymore.
You can start paying attention, but it's painful at first. Just like an addict in withdrawal.
Just the way the USSA likes it.
There is some kind of code among conservatives that sez you will not criticize the oil industry in any way, shape or form. It's like if you do then it means you hate Nascar, 'rugged individualism' and Bubbas.
If only they could find a founder or two that owned a well or a tar pit, that was used for more than axle grease!
Almost every country in the Middle East is awash in oil, and we have to side with the one that has nothing but joos. Goddamn, that was good thinkin'. Esso posted on 2012-01-13 7:37:56 ET
That I have to go out to google to get back in here and then....
that what I post is not 'displayed'....;}
So the point of Mcgowanjm Wire is what?
You think the only way to find it is through google? Some people don't use bookmarks and use google to find anything. lol. You can bookmark it too though.
I thought the purpose of the "wire" was so you could document the happenings in the world from your unique perspective.
Also everything you post here in on topic. Sometimes your other posts not so much.
For example a thread about confessing about voting for Obama. You post "In an interview with the Chicago Tribune, Ken Griffin, founder of the hedge fund Citadel was asked if he thought rich people had too great of an influence on politics. " Which has absolutely nothing to do with the thread. Why do you do that?
Because you and yours, just like every apologist for the Top 400, can never ever look farther into the past than the Day After your proxy was thrown out.
That USSA's history of failure started with Obama even when from
November 2008
I've made a special point of showing the Finance/Military White House positions are non negotiable. Whichever 'party's' involved.
Yet, threads like this are put up to show that Obama is the sole reason that the USSA's goin' down the tubes.
That Big Oil, the Banksters, and Israel only want the best for the avg Amerikan and the truth couldn't be further away from that premise.....that's why.
Now maybe you can tell me why you started Mcgowan Wire and then made it impossible to find w/o going out to Google, and then
I thought the purpose of the "wire" was so you could document the happenings in the world from your unique perspective.
The purpose was for me to show you the relevancy of my posts.
To tie them together, put a bow on them, and then spoon feed you with it.
Help you along on your re education.
Still is really.
I guess you just want a private tutorial?

How about the ChevronOwningTransocean debacle down in Brazil?
What strikes me most forcefully about the metastasizing attacks on women's health and reproductive rights by male Republican legislators is the sheer mean-spirited hostility, not to say hatred, that it reveals.
Now, the men proposing these laws, and in many cases enacting them, are for the most part married. They have wives, who are using birth control medications. They have daughters who are using birth control medications. They have sons whose wives and partners are using birth control medications. And yet, like Rush Limbaugh, who once again performs the indispensable function of saying out loud what these men are thinking, they clearly consider women who seek insurance coverage for birth control medications to be sluts and whores. That is their own wives and daughters whom they are describing in that manner.
I find it very unlikely that we would see hyperinflation (as opposed to, perhaps, CoL increases in the 10% annual range) before the Ponzi collapses.
The collapse of the Ponzi will be really caused by a freeze up of credit although the idiot media will focus on a plummeting DOW. It is against their religion to analyze with any honesty.
Last October, the New York Times reported that those who believed the Earth was warming dropped from 79 percent in 2006 to 59 percent. However, a month later polling experts blamed this decline on a collapse in media coverage and pollsters deeply flawed questions.
3 types of denial:
* A literal denial is: the assertion that something did not happen or is not true.
* With an interpretive denial, the basic facts are not denied, however, they are given a different meaning from what seems apparent to others. People recognize that something is happening but that its good for us.
* Implicatory denial covers the multitude of vocabularies, justifications, rationalizations, evasions that we use to deal with our awareness of so many images of unmitigated suffering. Here, knowledge itself is not an issue. The genuine challenge is doing the right thing with this knowledge.
