More and more, I'm beginning to believe that a Right Wing mindset is a mental defect

[phenomena]

LOL!!! "Progressives" think best time in america was the great depression. LOL!!!!!! Big shocker

Quote from OPTIONAL777:

The right wing essentially has place their faith, not in God, but in money and possessions. They long for a return to the two class system...the royals and the serfs. They think they will be members of the royals of course...they wish to regress back thousands of years where their mentality was in complete control, where there was no real democracy, no protections of rights of minority groups, women, children, and pure over the top selfishness and abuse of power by the lords of the realm...

If you ask a progressive what was the best time in America, they will say after FDR and the new deal, after civil rights legislation, after the labor unions gave balance and some power to the working man...

The regressive right wingers long to return to the days of slavery, no rights for anyone but white wealthy land owners, and slave or slave wage labor...

You make this too easy to demonstrate your mental defect...

Quote from Ricter:

... Who knows, the progressives may be to the right wing as homo sapiens was to the neanderthal.

"Neanderthal cranial capacity is thought to have been as large as that of Homo sapiens, perhaps larger..."


Anyway since as you say no one knows, maybe progressives are to the right wing as apes are to humans.

LOL!!! Yeah, "surging earnings" now that they use this new "ex items" method of reporting...

Perhaps I've fallen behind. Since when is identifying extraordinary items a "new" method of accounting? And so now it's a collective, non-recurring accounting anomaly that's affecting and skewing the 500 in aggregate? I certainly didn't see that one coming.

Yes you have deffinitely fallen behind. But at least now we know you don't actually trade (no suprise, just confirmation).

Quote from phenomena:

The thing is Ric, that how life "ought to be" is going to differ from individual to individual. There is not one collective "ought to be" authority. Each person should be free to persue their own individual "ought tos" so long as they can do so without infringing on the rights of others, which are outlined in the constitution...

Spot on!

Well that's clearly the case as far as knowledge of basic economics is concerned.

Perhaps now would be a propitious time for you and Hello to dazzle us with a blotter, since that's what Hello is apt to do. It's the ET equivalent of a western quick-draw.

LOL

That's an understatement.

You get punked, bitch slapped, smacked down, owned, cold cocked, eviscerated, hosed, corn holed, put down, abused, embarrassed, shamed, obliterated and laughed at fourteen ways to Sunday almost every day Gabby.

Fallen behind, it's more like you've fallen down and can't get up.

Groovy. Then explain to me how identifying extraordinary, non-recurring items is a "new" method of accounting. Also, explain how it has skewed the aggregate results of the Fortune 500 in such a manner than the latest available numbers cannot be compared with historic performance in accordance with GAAP. Not even in the aggregate. I'm always ready to learn something new.

Explain away, and please try not to fall down while doing so.
