Good analysis at PBS. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/businessdesk/2013/03/february-job-numbers-unemployment-falls-236000-jobs-created.html In February, 236,000 new jobs were added to the economy, which was higher than expected and the unemployment rate dropped by 0.1 percent. But the 7.7...

Today's report says that unemployment is is 7.7%. That number is not true. It's not even close to being true. http://money.cnn.com/2013/03/08/news/economy/february-jobs-report/ Meanwhile, the unemployment rate dipped to 7.7%, as 12 million workers were counted as unemployed. The drop...

There are millions of unemployed who aren't even counted. http://www.usnews.com/opinion/articles/2012/10/05/mort-zuckerman-why-the-country-is-unhappy-under-obama?page=2 If you are on disability, you are not considered to be in the labor force either. As of April, we have added 5.5...

The F-18, despite its upgrades, is still a 30+ year-old design. The F-22 program has been stopped. The purpose of sharing the F-35 with others is to get them to share the cost.

They're sick and tired of Canadian winters. I hear they're planning on invading Mexico.

The "point" of the F-35 is to replace the F-14 (retired from service), F-15 & F-16 (40 year-old designs) and F-18 & AV-8B II (30 year-old designs). Whether or not the F-35 will accomplish that mission remains to be seen.

They don't scrap an entire aircraft because of the headrest. They redesign and replace the headrest.

A man of the people... who stole billions... from the people. ============================================ Analyst estimates Chávez’s family fortune at around $2 billion http://newsfromvenezuela.tumblr.com/post/867542155/analyst-estimates-chavezs-family-fortune-at-around-2

One day Paul Krugman was standing on the observation deck of a 100-story building. All of a sudden, he grabs the guy standing next to him and leaps off the building, taking the other guy with him. Krugman is serene as can be, but the guy he pulled over with him is screaming hysterically as...

Legalize drugs. Freedom includes the right to make bad choices as well as good ones. A close friend's brother destroyed his life with drugs, ending with a fatal overdose. The drugs he used were all illegal. All the drug laws on the books didn't stop him.

The stock market loves my daughter. She invested some of her savings and the market's been going up ever since. It's obvious that she has supernatural powers. There's no other possible explanation.

If that's true, then a 100% tax and spend government would produce infinite growth in the economy. But it's not true. It's not even close to being true when measured by a dynamic (as opposed to static) econometric model. --------------------------------------...

That was the same message I heard when I went to Berkeley in the late 1980s. I went there a liberal and graduated a conservative as a direct result of the intolerance demonstrated daily by the so-called "progressives." Most of the students at Berkeley believed that all views opposing the...

This is not a one-time event. It's a pattern of behavior by the White House. ---------------------------------- "My Administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government." - President Barack Obama, January 2008 ---------------------------- Two years...

I think you're right. For the past two years the German/French strategy has been to try and force the UK into the EU-FTT. That's failed. Now the strategy may be to wait and see if they can find a more friendly partner in the UK Labour Party.

After four years, TSA is 100% Obama. He owns it. He can change it any time he wants to. And you don't know shit about who I voted for. I'm an independent who rarely votes for democrats or republicans because they're all corrupt to the core. Obama is just another in a long line of corrupt...

Obama has had 4 years to change TSA and he REFUSES. It runs exactly the way Obama wants it to run. Obama has been in charge of the TSA for four years. If he wanted it changed he would change it. But he doesn't change it because he likes it the way it is. Every policy at TSA is approved...

According to AK, since they were started under the Bush administration, therefore Obama is unable to change them. Just like TSA, even though he's been president for over 4 years, Obama has no control over any government agencies or their actions.

So, you're saying that Obama -- who has had total control over the agency for over four years -- has no culpability here at all. Obama could get rid of it anytime he wants. Yet he REFUSES to do so. REFUSES. REFUSES. REFUSES. After four years it belongs to Obama because he refuses to get...

Yes. We do that now. Ship luggage via UPS or FEDEX. Just take one small carry-on.
