QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 3, 2014 -> 02:40 PM) You know...I should have kids that someone else should pay for. I mean really, do some of these posters think that is how we should run this country. Once they have the kids, we are stuck providing for the kids (and should), cause the kids shouldn't get hosed because they came from dumb parents. They already have to deal with overcoming their genetics they inherited from those "dumb" parents. But come on....its a right so therefor we need to pay for it. Is having an Iphone a right too? I see enough freaking poor people with phones that blow my mine out of the water (technically I have an S4 that I got for free so maybe not...but for years this would have been the case cause I refuse to pay 200 bucks for a phone). Oh absolutely. This and we should also be responsible for thousands of illegal aliens pouring into our land. f*** the citizens, it may mean some more votes.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 26, 2014 -> 04:43 PM) I think the Clintons are closer to $100 million, but the question in doing the comparison is how you'd count the Bush inheritance which is currently in the hands of H.W. At that level they're invested in everything and I wouldn't even want to wager a guess how much the family fortune is worth. Agree. But the house in Maine is pretty sweet.

QUOTE (juddling @ Jun 26, 2014 -> 07:19 PM) Congrats to SCOTUS on their decision to (unanimously) strike down the President’s “recess” appointments to the National Labor Relations Board. 12 th time in two years. All the NLRB decisions since should be toast, no?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 08:41 AM) I think Hillary may actually be the 2nd least wealthy candidate to be on a ticket since 2000. Kerry, Bush, McCain, Romney were all loaded with legit corporate/inherited wealth. Her net worth, including Bill, is more than Bush, no? I remember seeing the other day Bush has a net worth of $35 million, and the Clinton's are at $55 million. Granted these figures are all subjective and murky. And after a certain number does it really matter.

IIRC the head of the Archives said they did not follow the law. also I thought I heard they, the IRS employees, were suppose to print out, hard copies of certain work related emails......also A hard drive failing? Sure.....but a total of seven hard drives all relating to people who were involved in the 501C4 cases? Highly suspicious.... Usually if it smells like s***, it probably is s***.... And this whole subject does not pass the smell test...

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 15, 2014 -> 10:27 PM) We do realize that The Daily Mail is basically what you would get if you let Fox News and the National Enquirer have sex, right? Was it true?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 15, 2014 -> 05:42 AM) I remember that under Bush, no emails or tapes of torture were ever lost or intentionally destroyed. So you are comparing the CIA to the iRS? Torturing some terrorist vs intentionally distributing citizens tax information and intentionally targeting individuals? We're the torture emails linked to the White House? Another Liberal false equivalency.... But then you liberals have his cock so far down your throat ......oh forget it....this is why nobody posts in here anymore.....because even with something this blatant you will try to defend him...and you are not even doing that...you are comparing him to something that happened 8 yrs ago...what's your explanation of the thousands of illiegals Asshole is letting into the country...how many gang members and potential terrorists are included? Keep smoking the Hopium pipe...the Republicans should come out right now and not fund the EPA, the IRS, and HHS, next year. If f*** face wants to govern by executive order fiat, try funding the government that way too. f*** him and all you turds that support him...

Majority of oil comes out of Basra. Shouldn't have too much of an effect on their capacity.

A little background: Mullah Mohammad Fazl (Taliban army chief of staff): Fazl is “wanted by the UN for possible war crimes including the murder of thousands of Shiites.” Fazl “was associated with terrorist groups currently opposing U.S. and Coalition forces including al Qaeda, Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU), Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin (HIG), and an Anti-Coalition Militia group known as Harakat-i-Inqilab-i-Islami.” In addition to being one of the Taliban’s most experienced military commanders, Fazl worked closely with a top al Qaeda commander named Abdul Hadi al Iraqi, who headed al Qaeda’s main fighting unit in Afghanistan prior to 9/11 and is currently detained at Guantanamo. Mullah Norullah Noori (senior Taliban military commander): Like Fazl, Noori is “wanted by the United Nations (UN) for possible war crimes including the murder of thousands of Shiite Muslims.” Beginning in the mid-1990s, Noori “fought alongside al Qaeda as a Taliban military general, against the Northern alliance.” He continued to work closely with al Qaeda in the years that followed. Abdul Haq Wasiq (Taliban deputy minister of intelligence): Wasiq arranged for al Qaeda members to provide crucial intelligence training prior to 9/11. The training was headed by Hamza Zubayr, an al Qaeda instructor who was killed during the same September 2002 raid that netted Ramzi Binalshibh, the point man for the 9/11 operation. Wasiq “was central to the Taliban's efforts to form alliances with other Islamic fundamentalist groups to fight alongside the Taliban against U.S. and Coalition forces after the 11 September 2001 attacks,” according to a leaked JTF-GTMO threat assessment. Khairullah Khairkhwa (Taliban governor of the Herat province and former interior minister): Khairkhwa was the governor of Afghanistan’s westernmost province prior to 9/11. In that capacity, he executed sensitive missions for Mullah Omar, including helping to broker a secret deal with the Iranians. For much of the pre-9/11 period, Iran and the Taliban were bitter foes. But a Taliban delegation that included Kharikhwa helped secure Iran’s support for the Taliban’s efforts against the American-led coalition in late 2001. JTF-GTMO found that Khairkhwa was likely a major drug trafficker and deeply in bed with al Qaeda. He allegedly oversaw one of Osama bin Laden’s training facilities in Herat. Mohammed Nabi (senior Taliban figure and security official): Nabi “was a senior Taliban official who served in multiple leadership roles.” Nabi “had strong operational ties to Anti-Coalition Militia (ACM) groups including al Qaeda, the Taliban, the Haqqani Network, and the Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin (HIG), some of whom remain active in ACM activities.” Intelligence cited in the JTF-GTMO files indicates that Nabi held weekly meetings with al Qaeda operatives to coordinate attacks against U.S.-led forces

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 10:24 AM) Illinois' budget is pretty thoroughly f***ed for a lot of reasons, so they sort of do need that revenue to survive if you don't want huge cuts in a lot of services. Cut the f***ing workforce.. Want a license,,,better go a month early it will take a while....If the unions do not want to take a cut, gut the workers..At least it will be paid for.

Oh believe me, i am cynical enough to never believe a word anyone in this state mutters, be they R or D. And can they just once give a reason that does not reference eduacation spending. That argument is sooooo old and lame...

Congrats to the lying sack of poop that is our governor for making permanent the temporary income tax hike. Wtg s***head. What a disgrace. Unfortunately he and I are high school alums. Who lies more? Quinn or Narcissus?

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Mar 21, 2014 -> 07:51 AM) The issue for Tesla is it's an infant market that lacks infrastructure -- and while they're taking steps to do something about that -- it's been a slow roll out. Tesla is 100% hype at the moment, they have a great company name, etc., but the bottom line is their cars are too expensive and the second the others decide to flip the switch, they'll be in a over saturated market and find themselves in a race to the bottom in pricing. Tesla will be fine so long as they're one of the only games in town, and while a few of the others have dabbled in this area, none of them have dove into the deep end yet. That said, a day WILL come that Ford, GM, Fiat (Chrysler), Porsche, BMW, VW, Volvo, Nissan, Hyundai, Honda, etc., decide to do exactly that, and when that happens, Tesla is going to find itself between a rock and a hard place. They'll be priced way higher than the cheaper mass production models from Ford, Honda, etc, and find themselves too closely priced to someone like Porsche. Why would anyone spend 75k on a Tesla when they can spend 85k on a competing Porsche? Now, aside from that, let's talk numbers: https://www.google.com/finance?q=tsla&e...sU5CzCdHFqQGBEQ Tesla (TSLA) is trading around $234 P/E: N/A (you cannot have a P/E ratio when you make no money) EPS: -.70 (losing 70 cents a share) Dividend: N/A They have $845,000,000 in the bank (from their IPO and continued share issuance to raise more money) and owe $606,000,000 Their debt has doubled in the last two years, meaning it will probably double again Keep in mind the only way this company has made any money so far is to issue additional shares year after year, as they don't make any money on their one and only product. Now, these numbers aren't all bad, as they're showing growth -- but as I was talking about above, it's easy to grow in a market nobody else is bothering with at the moment. But when the competition arrives in mass, and it will, they're going to find growth much harder to come by, and if they continue building that debt as they've shown they probably will, they won't have the profits to cover it. And by the way, Musk can crow about a 30k Tesla by 2015 all he wants -- that's never going to happen. The only way that happens is if they create a new, separate, non-luxury model, but that car you see now will NEVER be 30k. All of this considered, that doesn't mean Tesla will fail, they very well may succeed -- but these are the types of things I personally consider before investing in a company. As an investment choice, there are better out there, in markets with less competition waiting patiently on the sidelines, with far less inflated stock prices. Don't forget the carbon credits it has sold to the big three.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Mar 12, 2014 -> 10:35 AM) LOL. No, you'll only let us know so long as you win, the minute you lose, and you will, we won't hear a peep. As with all day traders that think they know what they're doing, when they don't. But BOOM BOOM Bernanke said we have to take risk. How are we supposed to make any money? Margin at an all time high means good times for all...
