  1. These people are driving into parking lots in minivans. Just saw on CNN a minivan pulls into a lot. And no kidding 5-6 people get out , leave the doors in the van ole n , and carrying bags they brought with them enter the store and steal what they can.
  2. " we also gave those who wish to destroy the space to do that as well".......Rioting sanctioned by the mayor of Baltimore...nicely done Mayor....nicely done....
  3. http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle...ry.html?hpid=z1 With this success and the success in Yemen and Libya, Syria, Ukraine and giving Iran the bomb I think s*** head should be nominated for another Nobel Prize. I find it absolutely hilarious that he thinks sanctions will be snapped back into place once he bows to IRAN and gives them everything they want...what a fool! And that idiot that calls himself the Vice President said just last week that things were not s bad as everyone was saying, with regards to Iraq....this administration is absolutely abysmal and will go down as the worst in American history....There is not one country in the Middle East that trusts their relationship with this tool in office...so sad....Putin is wiping his ass with Obama....

  6. QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 6, 2015 -> 09:41 AM) Kind of an odd jobs report, the low wages uptick/high jobs report seems good to remove some of the slack...but participation went down. I'm going to say wait for the revisions. What i find strange is no mention of job losses in the energy sector....Those jobs have been getting hammered the last two months and that is not represented in the data..
  7. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 5, 2015 -> 12:25 PM) In other words...that could also be the equivalent of a "salary cut" from the company right? yes
  8. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 5, 2015 -> 11:58 AM) Is that a personal, individual policy or are you also adding in "shifting costs from employers"? No its a company policy. And a good one at that. Not quite a "cadillac" but pretty close.
  9. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 5, 2015 -> 10:41 AM) What were the annual increases before that? You know i would have to check. IIRC, i was somewhere in the neighborhood of $400/mo....now i am $558/mo. My older son is Type 1 and co-pays for his endo have gone from $25 to $41.....Regulaar office has increased from $20 to $28....ER visits from $100 to $150.....No co-insurance to 5%....FWIW....Basically any raise has gone to insurance increases...Rx have increased from $5 to $10..... This is from June 2011-Present
  10. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 03:54 PM) Changing from 8% growth per year to 2% growth per year = saving a ridiculous, insane, unbelievable, enormous, ungodly amount of money. Mine has increased 10+% each of the last two years.. And I have 5% co-insurance now that i never had before...
  11. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 24, 2015 -> 11:32 AM) He's a Christian. He's also an extremist/psychotic one with a warped and distorted understanding of Christian ideology. Not sure why this is so complicated. Obama isn't forced to label ISIS members broadly as just Muslims. He can say they're extremists, terrorists, etc. And you're still not getting it. I want Obama to state the facts regarding their motive. E.g., like today, ISIS kidnapped 90-100 Assyrian Christians. It wasn't a "random" kidnapping. It was clearly deliberate. http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/02/24/...N0LS0MH20150224 Well it was random because ISIS didn't know those exact people would be where they were when they were there, so by all accounts according to the brain trust in the White House, it was random.
  12. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 22, 2015 -> 11:24 AM) Second crude pipeline spill in Montana wreaks havoc on Yellowstone River Sure is scarier when you report it as 118k gallons instead of 3200 barrels....
  13. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 31, 2014 -> 08:13 AM) #3 House Republican spoke at white nationalist rally in 2002, said he shared many of former KKK head David Duke's "conservative" values in 1999. He also voted against MLK Day in the Louisiana state house in 2004. Off to a good start. edit: also, too, (R-Throw a Reporter off a Balcony), Michael Grimm is resigning after pleading guilty to tax evasion This post has been edited by the Soxtalk staff to remove objectionable material. Soxtalk encourages a free discussion between its members, but does not allow personal attacks, threats, graphic sexual material, nudity, or any other materials judged offensive by the Administrators and Moderators. Thank you. He did not speak at the White Nationalist Rally. But whatever fits the narrative.. Obama listened to hate speech for 20 plus years in a church...you are good with that. Happy New Year
  14. http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/39456...e-it-ian-tuttle Expect nothing less from the lying assholes n the White House. Disgraceful....WORST EVER Do they tell the truth about anything? Waiting to get my copy of the NY Times tomorrow, I'm sure this will be Page one, right? Or should i just watch the network news tonight? They'll surely be all over it...Hmmmmm....decisions decisions.....
  15. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 08:03 PM) Which party has a majority of seats in the United States House of Representatives? Ah a question with a question. Say no more...
  16. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 08:31 AM) It's hard to imagine a worse way to handle the event if they were looking to minimize unrest, but I'm willing to assume incompetence over malice. We are talking about gov't here..
  17. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 24, 2014 -> 08:30 PM) If I'm a parent I'm happy they decided that. Who knows how crazy this will get. Hopefully it'll be a whole lotta nothing. SOLD! The type of animals being dealt with here. Lol!
  18. Premiums for health insurance up 9.3%... Premiums for dental up 25%....premiums for vision up 50%... Co-pays up another $3... RX's up $2.... And coinsurance went from 100% coverage to 95%...
  19. http://www.nationaljournal.com/white-house...f-lies-20141112 From the most transparent pile of s*** to ever inhabit the peoples house.
  20. QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 7, 2014 -> 11:07 AM) The turnout figure I posted is not at all based on registrations. It is based on the voting-eligible population, which includes both registered and non-registered voters. They use data from census research, American Community Survey (to determine the amount of non-citizens), and prison records (to determine number of incarcerated and felons). A quick look at state-by-state data: Top - Maine, 59% Wisconsin, 56% Alaska, 55% Oregon, 52% Colorado, 52% Bottom - Indiana, 28% Texas, 28% Utah, 29% New York, 29% Tennessee, 29% Mississippi, 29% Oklahoma, 29% Even disregarding explanations, it's sickening to think that we are effectively ruled by such small portions of our citizenry. There's an extent to which we try to keep people from voting, there's an extent to which people's lives are too hard to really think about politics, some people just suck, some people are careless, the entire institution is rather unsupported structurally....whatever the reason, it hardly feels like living in a democracy when only a third of the people who can decide who governs end up deciding who governs. The portion of people old enough to vote who cannot legally vote has also increased in the past 30-40 years due to the rising felon population. While I get pissed at the Republican Party for what I believe are voter suppression tactics, the Democrats that have control in various places in the USA hardly over-extend trying to use their power to get more people to the polls. The goal of both parties ought to be to get as many people to vote as possible with as little fraud as possible. One party is just focused on the fraud and the other party isn't focused on anything. You couldn't spend too much money on trying to make sure your country gives a voice to as many people as possible. What's most difficult to account for is the possibly disenfranchising effect of geography. I live in Ohio, which is supposed to be super swing state. Despite living right smack dab in liberal Columbus, I live in an uncompetitive Republican congressional district. In statewide elections, it was clear long before the elections that Republicans would win everything easily. Several city-wide positions were uncontested. I voted, but I feel that the main thing of consequence that I did was cast votes for the local Green Party who needs them to get ballot access back (state government had no problem using bipartisan cooperation to pass laws removing third parties from the ballot unless they meet new, onerous requirements). Welcome to the world of the Illinois Republican
  21. QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 5, 2014 -> 09:29 AM) Wait what? You voted for 3 D's? Who? Curious what you don't like about Lisa Madigan. Or was it a proxy vote against Michael? I'd love it if they removed the 60 vote threshold, which I personally think is a huge problem. But I don't see it happening. Lipinski for Congress White for Sec State Dart for Sheriff
  22. Grimes gets smoked. Nunn gets smoked......judges can't help Orman weasel his way in...I'll take a possible 53.. A good night.... Wtg Rauner!
  23. Walker wins Wiscy... Maybe the Dems can conjure up some more fake investigations of his pets or something..
