ah ok now you edited the post

Again, Im speaking of self proclaimed debunkers, they are the majority, and not Carl Sagan, who doesnt go around and call himself a debunker(at least I dont remember that).

I know that site avarearch.com its pertty good. I agree with them on a lot, it is true he is pumping gold and silver because that is his business, selling gold and silver. However what they fail to point out on their site is that he does have a lot of good things to say as well. Also keep in mind I didnt "video drop" a ridiclous video like "dollar collapse 2015" or "Gold 15,000 in 2015" because I know that they are stupid and they just change the year haha, listen to what he is saying in the fist video, it is not so nuts like you are trying to say. Hell even in the video that is a avaresarch advertisement he says a lot of things that are true, it is just his prediction doesnt have a time frame and he is talking about the gold - silver ratio and I dont agree with him on that. I do agree with what he has to say in a lot of this other videos though, and no, I have never ever ever bought anything from him haha.

Avaresearch is selling products in the exact same industry as M.M. so guess what, they might be modvated to make videos like that. Amazing! It is as simple as that.

The other video, the one about the economy and has the quotes from Obama and Clinton, I agree with most of what he has to say in that video, it doesnt feature so called "wack jobs" gold, silver, or your favorite person Piers Mo. uhh I mean Alex Jones. It uses mostly fed data.

es, the evil Popular Mechanics is out to steal your money, just like the government. How dare they go point by point, using experts in the field taking apart some truther's nonsense. Why not take a break from what you usually read and actually trying reading some of it and then come back here and attempt to take it apart. I read some of the truther stuff you posted earlier and did exactly that. I read a lot of that when it first came out, both sides. It's pretty clear who the nuts were and who made more sense.

No not at all, Popular Mechanics does not steal your money. You decide to give them your money in return for a good. That is not at all how goverment works. I did not and am not saying anything like "how dare they" not at all, but guess what, if you point out a possible modivation that is the reaction you get, good job! hand clap! I have read it and I am not going to take it apart, Im not a mechanic anyway. What would that prove anyway? Threre are other qualified professionals that do not agree with all of what is publised there, I guess they are automaticly wack jobs, but wait, did you read what they have to say too? No you dont need to you have already discounted all people that do not conform to what is in PM as wackjobs.
Does PM go into the whole CIA funding of Osama years before? No , you see that is another aspect. A fact.
PM is selling a mag, just like people on news shows sell books.

Who Controls the Senate?

 

[GILSAN]

Iowadawg is gonna love this... I think.

Joni Ernst grew up castrating hogs on an Iowa farm, so in Washington, she'll know how to cut pork! Check out her ad.

She's gonna be a Senator. Love it. Imagine the reaction when she walks by other male senators. They'll be holding really hard to their cojones.... just in case she has an urge

Alaska is also gonna go Republican. Verbster do you still have any bottles of fermented moose liver left?

 

[GILSAN]

POP (Pissed Off President)

AK is probably 75% Republican, so I'm not surprised at whatever happens. The guy running is not so good, but that's Alaska. If the legalize pot measure passes, I'll just drown my sorrows in smoke. Begich has done a fine job, but he was barely elected and only because Stevens was being investigated for criminal conduct.

 

[RaiderGirl]

You forgot one very important part in his Presidency.... Golf. I'm sure he will be playing a lot more golf after tomorrow

LOL.. I'm all for it, I'd much rather see him with a golf club in his hand than a pen.

Clearly this is a very good for day for America, The removal of Harry Reid as leader of the Senate, it finally happened!.. 8 years of that A-hole refusing to bring bills to the floor for a vote, 8 years of obstruction and gridlock and that's all going to change and America will be better for it..

And we picked up 10 more Republican seats in the House, Hopefully Democrats have pulled their heads out of their butts and realize what their party actually stands for.

 

[RaiderGirl]

Most all the selections on the ballot were either Republican or Democrat, very few Independents, When looking at my choices, I didn't care who the person was, how much experience he or she had or what they voted for in the past, some of them I didn't even know, they could have criminal records for all I knew, as long as they were Republican that's who I voted for, ANYONE but a Democrat.

Quite revealing, thanks. It appears you and McConnell think alike.

And we want to spread American style democracy around the world?

smh

Pretty much the only way democrats will make the necessary changes to place moderates in their leadership at the national level is if the entire chain of democrats, from head to toe get punished at the ballot box. There are exceptions, of course, there have to be. I think to a degree this happened with republicans over the last decade, there are a lot more in the leadership talking about 'immigration reform' than there are talking about enforcement of current immigration and deportation law, for example.

Locally, one of the republicans is under investigation for spending potentially hundreds of thousands of county money for personal needs. They even have her on video at a wal-mart making an $18K purchase, which included things like squirrel food, panties, all sorts of stuff. Technically, because she was not yet convicted she was still on the ballot. Innocent until proven guilty and all that, but they literally have her on video making the purchase, county credit card in hand.

She received nearly 1,000 votes from people who voted straight ticket, stuff like that drives me crazy.

But those candidates are the exception rather than the rule.

Those candidates may be the exception, but the straight- party voters aren't.

In any case, the tables are now turned. Republicans have their chance. The time for complaining is over, and the time to fix what Republicans have been complaining about for eight years is here. I'm hoping for the best, but will not be surprised that all the talk was just talk, and nothing will change, or will actually regress.

 

[RaiderGirl]

Quite revealing, thanks.

Not a problem, I'll take it a step further and say that I'd vote for an actual donkey before I voted for a Democrat, I probably wouldn't say that 20 years ago, sadly the Democratic party has changed dramatically since then, they lost what conservative ideology they had left, all of it and they paid a price for it last night.


Aside from the historic win in both the Senate and House, a BIG congratulations to "Mia Love" of Utah for winning a seat in the House, it was her second run an it, losing 2 years ago, The first Black Female Republican to win a seat in congress, NICE!

The biggest satisfaction I got from last nights shellacking is that it was in my opinion, first and foremost a major defeat for the Liberal Mainstream Media. I can just imagine how pissed off these brainwashed journalists must be feeling at CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, Washington Post etc etc.

The second satisfaction is that it was a rejection of Liberal policies and dissatisfaction with Obama & Co.

The MSM are the ones who brainwashed millions of Americans into voting such a weak personality as Obama. Hillary Clinton should have been President, not Obama. They couldn't resist the opportunity to put a " Black" president in the White House, even though he had nothing in him, or like Clint Eastwood so aptly called him: "the empty chair". He basically got elected because white America felt guilty, because the media said so.

The MSM then decided to throw Hillary in the mud and convince some of the brainwashed masses to vote for the new Messiah. They (Liberal Media) succeeded in giving Obama two wins. Pity it took 6 years for some people to realize the mistake they had made.

They even managed to convince some idiots in Oslo, Norway to award Obama the most prestigious of all awards... the Nobel Peace Prize, before he even did anything. Why he won it, only those idiots know.

I'll bet the MSM will now start throwing out excuses and suggestions. The New York Times is already suggesting to stop Mid Term elections

http://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/11/03/opinion/cancel-the-midterms.html?_r=2

The MSM will probably say they lost because of racism.... because few blacks voted in the midterms. Whitey's fault I'll bet.

There is going to be a turn to the right, thanks mostly to illogical and extremely tolerant policies to things that affect people's lives directly.

Hoping to see The Republicans in power in 2016, UKIP in the UK next year and the National Front in France, followed by other right wing parties around Europe. We need to urgently put a stop to the outright stupidity of Liberal policies, once and for all.

I also hope the next President of the US is able to say half a dozen words without a teleprompter. It's so embarrassing to see the leader of the most powerful nation in the world reading from one of those things.

GOP Superstar Mia Love Refuses To be Tokenized By CNN

Mia Love is the first Republican black woman elected to Congress but that has nothing to do with who she is or how she wants to be identified. During an appearance on race-obsessed CNN this morning, Love shut down hosts Rick Berman and Michaela Pereira's attempt to make her race and gender an issue.

Love: Race and gender had nothing to do with [my win]. Principles had everything to do with it. Utah values had everything to do with it.

Pereira: I want to challenge you on one point. This isn't about dividing on issues of race but ensuring everyone has a fair shot at a seat at the table.

Love: You have to understand that [in my district] there are very few black residents. I wasn't elected because of the color of my skin. I wasn't elected because of my gender. I was elected because of the solutions I put forward and my promise to run an issues-oriented campaign, That's what resonated.

Love wants to be known for her character and ideas, not skin color and gender.

What a concept -- a concept CNN couldn't grasp with Velcro gloves dipped in super glue.

It's precisely that narrow minded attitude that some other Republicans share (like McConnell and his main priority to stop anything to do with Obama) that makes conversation and compromise unachievable, yet you have the gall to say it's the Democrats who were the obstructionists over the last several years. Already, you are fuzzing up the actions of Republicans, trying to erase their antics aimed at blocking everything possible, not out of a desire to help the country, but out of some sort of need to oppose for opposition's sake. Pretty soon you'll have convinced yourself that Republicans actually tried to work with Obama, and that he was to blame for Republican filibusters.

Stick with your hardline beliefs; you won't be satisfied until there is no one voicing any dissent at all. maybe you should meet with your congressman and suggest all dissenters should be locked up. After all, the Republicans are so much smarter than any Democrats that there's no need to communicate with them, anyway. Besides, all those liberal beliefs are not good for the Republican agenda of exploiting everything possible for money. Who needs trees and wolves, anyway?

"Brainwashed" is back, I see. And so is your brainwashed viewpoint on how and why Obama got elected. A sympathy vote by white Americans. Well, when you get absurd, you might as well go all in.

The MSM will probably say they lost because of racism.... because few blacks voted in the midterms. Whitey's fault I'll bet..

Thought you said the Democrats depended on voter fraud to win anything. Guess there wasn't enough fraud.

There is going to be a turn to the right, thanks mostly to illogical and extremely tolerant policies to things that affect people's lives directly..

This makes no sense. Or maybe I'm too brainwashed to understand such tangled concepts.

I also hope the next President of the US is able to say half a dozen words without a teleprompter. It's so embarrassing to see the leader of the most powerful nation in the world reading from one of those things.

Good grief, not this old nonsense again.

 

[GILSAN]

Been watching CNN and boy are they pissed off. They've been mocking and laughing at some of the Republican winners, something they never did with the Democrats when Obama won.

I like the colour red. My soccer team, Benfica wears red and now it's great to see the map of the USA virtually all in red after the thumping:

I'm not going to say you're an idiot because that's just rude.
