Just great, now Don's all upset with me. He goes into the main office and leaves ET running. Bad enough we 'discuss' politics, and rarely agree, now he shuts off my access in the training room. c

Things change. They didn't have to compete in a global environment nearly as we do today. As smart as they were, they were limited to their place and time, much like we are exposed to much more today. They, and we, have to work with what we are dealt. I hate saying 'flat earth society' - but it...

From Intrade today. Not much 'Santorum' to worry about, it seems. Republican Nomination 93.1% Mitt 2.5% Rick 0.3% Newt 1.4% Paul http://www.intrade.com/v4/misc/scoreboard/ c

The lawmakers who voted no were Republican Sens. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, Richard Burr of North Carolina and Charles Grassley of Iowa. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/22/stock-act-senate-insider-trading-ban_n_1373081.html c

Do I really need to re-post all the conservative quotes? Or is it enough to say both sides say stupid things? Nevermind, I know your answer. Just thought I would try. c

And/or some of the big corporations, from oil to Con-Ag, will have to struggle by without all their tax subsidies, pay for not growing crops and all the rest. Don't be so quick to toss America in the toilet, I'm sure we'll survive. c

Why do you think it is so hard for so many to understand this basic, simple logic? I can understand the political pundits, who get paid for saying outrageous things they don't even believe, or just make up. And they are the first to switch sides if need by to stay employed. But simple online...

And his spelling is not improving. Still types 'Liebral' - but, seriously, I don't use ignore, I just chuckle. When people become so obsessed in their biases, or their religion, you cannot sway them with objectivity. They generally have such sad lives that they seek some sort of comfort in...

+1, of course. That's where thinking people reside, not at an extreme. Things simply get gridlocked when fanaticism sets in. c

How very generous you are to share you biased nonsense with us. Please don't bother to use any facts. Are you another 'Goldwater arch-conservative'? You might want to check these posts: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3481254&highlight=conservative#post3481254 I do...

Do you even read opposing posts? I think I totally disproved the OP's premise with facts regarding the percentage of Muslims in many European countries, and Europe as a whole. Are you just plain against the billions of Muslims, or just liberals, or both? Hardly a Christian view, right? I have...

Ah, what the heck, too easy. If you would have posted these, then I would have searched for stupid liberal quotes, trying to maintain some balance, where there is none. Bachman and friends: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/XGVaEGgSNV8" frameborder="0"...

No need to google it, but I will anyway. I understand your point about actually feeling some empathy those who are so entrenched psychologically that they become fearful. Of course they will all rebuke all this, but it happens to ideologues on any side of the spectrum. And, yes, I grew up...

Funny, yep, that's me. Check out the Goldwater arch-conservative quotes above. I know Mr. 377 won't believe me, since for some reason he has to hate me, but I actually agree with much of what Goldwater stood for. I honestly didn't realize how much. That's the trouble with labels, for others or...

Got me curious about Mr. Goldwater, so I did a little research: Goldwater: In recent years, Goldwater has been unhappy with some of the directions the party has taken. On abortion, he is pro-choice. He dislikes "political preachers" and once advised, "Every good Christian ought to kick...
