What nonsense. Both parties do this. It's the nature of modern politics. And not just here, spend a few hours watching daily parliament hearings in the UK. We look like pansies compared to them. And not only do both parties do this crap, but they do it to themselves in their own primaries...

Martin, don't leave me hanging for another year. Why don't you start with responding to where we left off a year ago.... Please pay close attention to the last paragraph. It will allow you to properly structure your answer in a way I'll find more satisfactory. Good luck chap!

No Ricter, it's always been like this because it has always been our foreign policy. Don't defend it Ricter. And the next time you get on a plane and you see a couple of Saudi nationals sitting across from you, ask yourself this question: I wonder if these guys are pissed about what we are...

THIS is why our foreign policy needs to change. Wake up guys, we're on the clock....

Here, let me help you out. When that "one" poster went on and on and on and on (i'm not kidding) and on about defending pedophilia, how many lefties came forward and said, hey dude, that's not cool, I have a young daughter or young son, cut it out. Guess how many? Take a wild stab how many...

There are no facts in politics, only opinions. Second, the Iraq War did not start in 2004. It started when we lobbed missiles into their country and started killing their people. And to be fair, it even started before that with the first Gulf War. Let me ask you something, if Canada fired...

That's my point, it was NOT a response. It was a continuation of the 1998 missile attacks on Iraq for the same purpose. Did the Bush administration not sell the goods as well as Clinton did? Absolutely, Powell, Bush and Cheney were awful salesmen compared to Bill Clinton, Madeline Albright...

What on God's green earth are you fucking talking about? There is probably 10k members of ET who post at least once in a given year and there are maybe 3 or 4 people in P&R you are referencing and you extrapolate from that data that ALL of ET is like that and even worse, all of America? Are...

Actually the Iraq war was a pittance compared to WWII and Vietnam. And ironically, it was the war both parties wanted. WWII was highly controversial and America had ZERO interest in stopping Germany. We were doing business with Hitler for the most part and Americans at the time were VERY...

Do NOT backtest. Form a hypothesis first based on whatever experience or knowledge you have (as little as it may me), then collect data and see if the data is agreeing with your hypothesis. Not the other way around. One you have some sound ideas, the important thing to remember is to be...

You've been on this site for 10 years and you still post crap like that? Doesn't one evolve over time and grow some maturity in their posting? I guess not with you. Since you probably have little to no knowledge in statistics, I can tell you that over the years there have been thousands of...

Are you serious? How many people do you know from P&R that has over 30k posts who is a lefty? There is only one. The most notorious poster probably ever on ET. Fwiw, I believe he died. But the poster I'm referring to of course is Zzz, ART (aroguetrader), and Optional (sp), those were three...

I didn't say they were. I said the guy who supported it was a lefty. And you know who he is.

Trendlover, you are arguing moral relativism. You don't defend bad behavior by pointing to other bad behavior. It's illogical in nature. He was a pot smoking thug who got thrown out of school and and talked like a gangster. Had Zimmerman not offed him, another brother would have sooner or...

One of my recent favorites and memorable CNBC guests was Jerry Favors from Columbus, OH. Jerry passed away a few years back but there was nothing I looked forward to more then Favors Friday with Ron Insana. He had a 900 hotline and fax service and spoke 500 words a minute. That guy was old...

Trendlover, why do you go on and on and on defending that lowlife Martin. I'm not saying he deserved to die, but the guy was the epitome of a deadbeat. Surely you can focus your energy on someone more deserving no? I just don't get it. You come down here and it's one emotional post after...

You have absolutely no perspective. There was a poster who lived down in P&R who had over 30k posts who spent considerable time defending pedophilia. Did he represent all the lefties on ET? No. Maybe a few, but not most and certainly not most Americans. Take a Xanax with a glass of water...

That's not true entirely. Ned Davis was one of the pioneers in the space. Has been around for decades. Very highly respected. http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2013/04/interview-ned-davis/ The problem is, most of the good ones are damn near dead now. They came into this business back when...

Come on Max, stop baiting trendlover. You know how emotional she gets when you start these threads. :)
