For over ten year, the Seattle Chapter of Drinking liberally has served as a gathering place for people to talk politics, brainstorm, introduce new candidates, watch debates and SOTU addresses. All over a beer. So please join us this evening as we do it, once again.
We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. Our starting time is 8:00 pm, but some folks stop by earlier for dinner.
Can’t make it to Seattle on Tuesday night? Check out one of the other DL meetings this week. The Tri-Cities and Redmond chapters also meet tonight. On Wednesday the Bellingham chapter meets. The Bremerton, Spokane, and Kent chapters meet on Thursday. And next Monday, the Aberdeen and Yakima chapters meet.
There are 190 chapters of Living Liberally, including eighteen in Washington state, four in Oregon and two in Idaho. Chances are excellent there’s a chapter meeting somewhere near you.

Wow… “Where is the leadership?” asked Cory Fritz, a spokesman for Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio). “The federal government has just been hit by one of the largest thefts of sensitive data in history, and this White House is trying blame anyone but itself. It’s absolutely disgusting.”
Wow… “We can expect to continue to see these kinds of cyber attacks and intrusions until we get much better at defending our cyber networks,” Rep. Jim Langevin (D-R.I.) told The Hill.
Meanwhile we just experienced two big hacks and Obummer wants to do this? http://thehill.com/policy/cybe.....encryption
Wow… “We are opposed to any policy actions or measures that would undermine encryption as an available and effective tool,” said the letter, from the Information Technology Industry Council (ITIC) and the Software and Information Industry Association (SIIA).
Wow… Many of the big names in ITIC and SIIA also signed on to a similar letter sent to the White House in May that also included over 100 civil liberties organizations, digital rights advocates and security researchers.
Anything to spy on Americans is the Obummer way! So if Obummer has his way, all those web purchases would be under scrutiny now!
And you HA DUMMOCRETIN morons didn’t understand that Obummer’s push for strange net neutrality rules was the first step because most of you are as internet ignorant as you are in most topics y’all comment upon here! https://www.techdirt.com/blog/netneutrality/articles/
20141012/06344928801/revealed-isps-already-violating-net-neutrality-to-block-encryption-make-everyone-less-safe-online.shtml – remove the space after the “…articles/” because it overran the boundaries!
Then read www .enta. net / opinion/ 2015/ 05/27/ update-internet-org-coexist-net-neutrality-and-encryption / #.VXbqtFVVhBc – Puddy removed the http part and inserted spaces so it would pass the filter test!
Wow… However, it’s not just the net neutrality aspect that is now causing concern. Amongst the strict criteria for companies wanting to join Internet.org is the fact that encryption is not allowed. The reasoning behind this is reportedly because all the on-the-house web traffic has to go through Internet.org’s proxy servers which cannot (currently, at least) support HTTPS. Therefore, participating sites using HTTPS will either have all encryption stripped out or will be rejected from the project.
Wow… In response, Facebook has confirmed that it will have access to track users’ online activity but argued that use of that information will be governed by their standard data policies, which seems of little comfort to many privacy advocates. Let’s face it, Facebook doesn’t have the best reputation for protecting users’ privacy and has been accused of tracking online activity in the past.
And whose ASS does Mark Zuckerberg vividly kiss in politics? Obummer and DUMMOCRETINS!
You see HA DUMMOCRETINS, people in the technology industry understood what net neutrality as offered by Obummer’s FCC would do and allow companies to do! Yet there were IDIOT Wabbits and clueless databaze cretins and frog lovers and neverrights and fake scientists all for net neutrality! Puddy was against it from the beginning knowing what Obummer’s suggested rules would do to the average user! Butt, y’all are ignorant because you read left wrong libtard sites all day. Yes…

@1 That’s nothing. A few years ago, our country had an unelected commander-in-chief who spent more time vacationing in Texas than working in Washington, and then when some buildings got knocked down by foreign terrorists, he went and attacked the wrong country and embroiled us in a war that cost thousands of American lives and over a trillion dollars. Kinda a one-man wrecking ball who ruined a lot of peoples’ lives. You voted for that guy, you defended him, and you’re whining about a data breach that could have been avoided if Republicans weren’t too goddam cheap to spend a little money on upgrading the government’s 1970s computer systems? Stamp this comment with a big fat red “H” for hypocrisy.
GOP rising star Marco Rubio, it seems, has a bad habit of mismanaging his personal finances that’s been well known among GOP insiders for a long time and is now surfacing in the media.
http://www.cnbc.com/id/102743754
This guy would be bankrupt if he hadn’t been bailed out multiple times by his Republican backers. He puts his family members on campaign payrolls so he can pay his bills. And now that he’s a presidential candidate, he’s going to tell us how to balance the federal budget? When he can’t manage his own checkbook? Really? C’mon.
Since you all hate Mike Huckabee so much Puddy knows you disagree with his prescription for the hack attack… http://thehill.com/policy/cybe.....okers-data
Interesting… and true about Obummer’s foreign policy weakness… The U.S. should launch a cyberattack campaign against China, 2016 GOP hopeful Mike Huckabee said Monday, days after it was revealed suspected Chinese hackers had pilfered 4 million federal workers’ records.
“What will it take for President Obama to open his eyes?” Huckabee said, calling it “mind-boggling” that the administration wouldn’t hack China in response to the breach revealed last Thursday at the Office of Personnel Management.
None of our enemies respect Obummer at all. Weakness leads to tragic consequences. And now 4 million people are open to espionage upon themselves and their families! Remember last year the Sony attack was the tip of the iceberg when North Korea could hire some peeps to perform their dirty work! What is IS doing to us that we don’t know about? http://www.foxnews.com/politic.....y-website/ Well these guys took “credit”!
Yes this is The One (remember he was called “the messiah”) y’all voted for! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
@2 That’s nothing. A few years ago, our country had an unelected commander-in-chief who while at Wimbledon in 1996 and later at other “social events” in 1998 fettered away one chance after the other to remove Bin Laden from the earth. He was too busy hanging with the in crowd to take the call or make the decision to eradicate the individual!
The rest is history!
Wow Marco Rubio had student loan debt, an underwater house and bought something he really wanted for a long time and the long knives are out from DUMMOCRETINS. Just like Sidney Blumenthal’s attack (hero of the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit) on Rubio’s supposed number of speeding tickets which we now learn was mostly his wife’s lead foot. At least the Rubios’ paid for them vs. trying to get out of them.
DUMMOCRETINS are scum!
@4 “Since you all hate Mike Huckabee so much”
We don’t hate him. He isn’t cut out to president, but he’d be fine as a Bible Belt preacher. He doesn’t advocate stoning gays like some of them do.
@4 “None of our enemies respect Obummer at all. Weakness leads to tragic consequences.”
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Republicans’ record in this regard speaks for itself and needs no comment.
@5 You’re funny.
@6 “which we now learn was mostly his wife’s lead foot”
Uh, no. Four of them are his, and that was made clear in the news reports, and also in my first HA comment about the subject. Rubio is a guy with a lead foot and also happens to have a wife who has no respect whatsoever for traffic laws intended to keep other people safe from people like the Rubios.
@6 As for the Rubios’ financial issues, these go far beyond the travails experienced by many Americans, into the realm of personal irresponsibility. Another concerns is the Rubios’ dependence on a wealthy patron who subsidized Rubio’s teaching career, employed him as a lawyer, and still employs Rubio’s wife. It’s not stretching things to say this billionaire pays the Rubio family’s bills while Marco plays at politics; and if Marco becomes president, you can be sure he’ll use that office to make decisions that benefit his patron’s business and investment interests.
Some people resent Hillary’s wealth (strangely, most of them are Republicans who in all other instances worship money and those who have it in abundance), but nobody owns her. You can’t say that of the GOP’s boy wonder.
Oh, and then there’s the utter rank hypocrisy of a politician who can’t manage his own checkbook peddling “austerity” in the name of balancing the federal budget as cover for beating up on the working poor. (It’s not the military budget or corporate welfare that Rubio would cut to achieve his “austere” budget.)
What a two-faced little slimebucket this guy is. He’s disgusting.
Although the minimum wage has gotten most of the attention, another force depressing incomes at the bottom of the wage ladder is shrinking work hours. Opportunistic Republicans try to blame this on Obamacare, but it’s mostly due to demographic and economic forces, such as the U.S. economy’s switch from manufacturing jobs to service jobs. See, e.g.,
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/wh.....rt-timers/
And now many employers are using on-demand scheduling software that saves them money and boosts their profits but makes things even worse for their low-income employees. The net result is a growing need for government subsistence aid for low-income workers, such as the explosion in food stamps we’ve seen in recent years, much of which is going to the working poor. If you believe in free markets, and don’t want government dictating minimum wages or hours to employers, then a logical solution that allows markets to function freely is to give businesses freedom in scheduling and paying their employees, but tax businesses as much as necessary to pay for public assistance provided to their employees, which amounts to government subsidies of their labor costs.

Google Obama the messiah images
“What Barack Obama has accomplished is the single most extraordinary event that has occurred in the 232 years of the nation’s political history” – Jesse Jackson, Jr.
“This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.” – Barack Obama
“We thought that he was going to be … I shouldn’t say this at Christmastime, but – the next messiah – Barbara Walters
“We have an amazing story to tell. This president has brought us out of the dark and into the light.” – Michelle Obama
What ever happened to the messiah? He for whom Americans danced in the streets on that unforgettable election night just six years ago. He who promised that humankind would remember this moment “when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.” – LA Times
Jesus was a community organizer and Pontius Pilate was a governor. That’s all I have to say! – Susan Sarandon
Jesus was a community organizer. Pontius Pilate was a governor, and perhaps they should understand the role of a — a community organizer to help people in distress. – Donna Brazile
The Bible says to whom much is given much is required and it comes out of that tradition. So it was insulting to see both, you know, the governor as well as Mayor Giuliani criticize people. There’s some on the Internet now that Jesus was a community organizer, Pontius Pilate was a governor. And perhaps they should understand the role of a community organizer, do help people in distress. – Donna Brazile
“I’ll do whatever he says to do. I’ll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear.” – Halle Berry
“A quantum leap in American consciousness” – Deepak Chopra
“He is not operating on the same plane as ordinary politicians. . . . the agent of transformation in an age of revolution, as a figure uniquely qualified to open the door to the 21st century.” – Gary Hart
“Many spiritually advanced people I know (not coweringly religious, mind you, but deeply spiritual) identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being who has the ability to lead us not merely to new foreign policies or health care plans or whatnot, but who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet, of relating and connecting and engaging with this bizarre earthly experiment. These kinds of people actually help us evolve. They are philosophers and peacemakers of a very high order, and they speak not just to reason or emotion, but to the soul.” – Mark Morford
“No one saw him coming, and Christians believe God comes at us from strange angles and places we don’t expect, like Jesus being born in a manger.” – Lawrence Carter
“Many even see in Obama a messiah-like figure, a great soul, and some affectionately call him Mahatma Obama.” – Dinesh Sharma
“We just like to say his name. We are considering taking it as a mantra.” – Chicago Sun-Times
“Does it not feel as if some special hand is guiding Obama on his journey, I mean, as he has said, the utter improbability of it all?” – Daily Kos
“He communicates God-like energy” – Steve Davis
“Obama has the capacity to summon heroic forces from the spiritual depths of ordinary citizens and to unleash therefrom a symphonic chorus of unique creative acts whose common purpose is to tame the soul and alleviate the great challenges facing mankind.” – Gerald Campbell
“We’re here to evolve to a higher plane, he is an evolved leader, has an ear for eloquence and a Tongue dipped in the Unvarnished Truth.” – Oprah Winfrey
“I would characterize the Senate race as being a race where Obama was, let’s say, blessed and highly favored. That’s not routine. There’s something else going on. I think that Obama, his election to the Senate, was divinely ordered. I know that that was God’s plan.” – Bill Rush
“Not just an ordinary human being but indeed an Advanced Soul” – Chicago Sun Times
Is Barack Obama—junior U.S. senator from Illinois, best-selling author, Harvard Law Review editor, Men’s Vogue cover model, and “exploratory” presidential candidate—the second coming of our Savior and our Redeemer, Prince of Peace and King of Kings, Jesus Christ? His press coverage suggests we can’t dismiss this possibility out of hand. I therefore inaugurate the Obama Messiah Watch, which will periodically highlight gratuitously adoring biographical details that appear in newspaper, television, and magazine profiles of this otherworldly presence in our midst. – Timothy Noah of Slate
Common Core skuuling… “Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope,” – Nikki Grimes
“Obama is, of course, greater than Jesus.” – Politiken (Danish newspaper)
“Barack Obama is our collective representation of our purest hopes, our highest visions and our deepest knowings. He’s our product out of the all-knowing quantum field of intelligence.” – Eve Konstantine
“This is bigger than Kennedy. This is the New Testament. I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don’t have that too often. No, seriously. It’s a dramatic event.” – Chris Matthews

Early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit BULLSHITTIUM!
Yes Rubio doesn’t have a Clinton Crime Family Foundation to pay smear merchants like Sidney Blumenthal (hero of the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit) to employ staphers like the two whom went to Dade County to investigate 17 Rubio family tickets. 13 from Jeannette Rubio and 2 from Marco for speeding and 2 for rolling through a stop sign for a 13.3% value for Marco over two decades!
Also didn’t John Effin Kerry hide his $70 MM yacht in Rhode Island so he wouldn’t have to pay Massachusetts port taxes? Why yes he did! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....56985.html Did the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit decry that act of tax evasion? NOPE the DOPE didn’t!
Marco didn’t grow up with a silver spoon up his ASS or marry money or create a crime family foundation to hire their hit man/woman RASPUTINS like most DUMMOCRETINS have! Marco had to pay off his student loans, his house mortages etc. like a common man. Hillary ain’t common to anyone at anytime at anywhere!
@9, to a early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit DUMMOCRETIN, truth and FACTS are funny because they hit that “mental” brick wall and can’t penetrate the neanderthal cranial orifice!
Here’s a special message for the morons (not mentioning names) who assert Republicans are better at foreign policy than Democrats:
“Washington (CNN) — Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld now said that the goal of creating a democracy in Iraq was ‘unrealistic’ and that he was ‘concerned’ when he first heard the idea floated by former President George W. Bush, a stark admission by one of the Iraq War’s biggest defenders.”
http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/09/.....index.html
Roger Rabbit Commentary: Poof, 4400+ American soldiers’ lives thrown away for nothing by idiots. And now these idiots want to lecture us about foreign policy? Pathetic.

Rumsfeld early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit? You were one of the biggest cheerleaders for Rumsfeld’s head!
REJECTED!
@17 Thank you for mentioning Sidney Blumenthal. He starkly spelled out just how criminally negligent the Republican George W. Bush regime was in failing to protect us from terrorist attack:
“Bush’s approach in most situations seemed a reactive combination of calculations to avoid his father’s mistakes and to reject Clinton’s policies. This was especially clear in international affairs: in his first nine months he reversed Clinton’s policy toward China, proclaiming it no longer a ‘strategic partner’ but a ‘strategic competitor’; in the Middle East, by withdrawing U.S. involvement in the negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians; toward Korea, by abandoning the negotiated accord that had frozen the North’s nuclear program and by humiliating President Kim of South Korea, who was promoting North-South reconciliation, during his March 2001 visit to the White House, contributing to a wave of anti-Americanism in a country that was among the staunchest American allies; by withdrawing U.S. support from the Kyoto treaty on global warming; and by forsaking Clinton’s efforts to address the dangers of international terrorism.
“During the transition between administrations, National Security Adviser Sandy Berger arranged several extensive briefings on this last subject for Bush’s incoming national security adviser, Condoleeza Rice, and others on the Bush team, including Vice President Cheney. One briefing lasted half a day. Berger told them that Osama bin Laden was an ‘existential threat’ and told them that he wanted ‘to underscore how important this issue is.’ In another briefing, Richard Clarke, head of counterterrorism in the NSC, the single most knowledgeable expert in the government, gave them a complete tutorial on the subject. In yet another briefing, CIA officials were brought in to go over all the intelligence available on terrorism.
“Don Kerrick, a three-star general and outgoing deputy national security adviser, overlapped for four months with the new Bush people. He submitted a memo for the new National Security Council warning of the danger of terrorism. ‘We are going to be struck again,’ he wrote. But as Kerrick explained to me, he received no answer to his memo. ‘They didn’t respond,’ he said. ‘They never responded. It was not high on their priority list. I was never invited to one meeting. They never asked me to do anything. They were not focusing. They didn’t see terrorism as the big megaissue that the Clinton administration saw it as. They were concentrated on what they thought were higher priorities than terrorism.’ The Principals meeting of national security officials took up terrorism only once, after constant pressure from Clarke, on September 4, 2001, and at that meeting they discussed using unmanned Predator drone spy aircraft, but no decision was made. ‘Unfortunately,’ said Kerrick, ‘September 11 gave them something to focus on.’”
— Sidney Blumenthal, The Clinton Wars (New York: Farrar, Strauss, and Giroux, 2003), pp. 797-798.
Now these same idiots and their moron followers lecture us about foreign policy and call President Obama “weak.” Sheesh.
@17 “Marco had to pay off his student loans, his house mortages etc. like a common man.”
No, he didn’t. His billionaire financial angel took care of that for him. Marco is an owned man and will do his master’s bidding if he wins the presidency.
@18 You wouldn’t know what a FACT is if one bit your ass.
Two good God-fearing Christians who, like Puddy, hear voices in their heads.
“Two heavily armed suspects taken into custody Thursday morning on the campus of South Macon Elementary School in North Carolina intended to shoot students and staff, saying “it was God’s will,” according to authorities.”

@21 Look up “statement against interest” in a legal dictionary and then get back to me about that. Or ask Rumsfeld; he attended a law school for a while, and maybe could explain it to you.
“You wouldn’t know what a FACT is if one bit your ass.”
When Puddy throws a capped “FACT” our way, we all know the factless motherfucker is lying his batshit crazy ass off again.
@15 I’ve always wondered where rightwingnuts came up with that “messiah” nonsense. Apparently I was correct in assuming it was from thin air.
@15 was about the dumbest fucking post ever. So Barbara Waters used “Messiah” in a sentence once and this leads you to believe that people you consider to be Godless communists believe this president to be the coming of the messiah predicted by the prophets of the Old Testament.
You are truly one stupid motherfucker.

@1 You know last night Coast to Coast was about EMP and the possibility that the sun could do an XFlare. Sure they were selling the guests book and selling their version of MREs so folks would have emergency supplies. Sure there was more than a bit of hyperbole, but either event can happen and either would be more serious than any cyber attack on the internet. Heck either might take the internet down. At least large parts of it. People would die probably not the 90% of Americans predicted by some yet not too much is mentioned about this threat to the internet and power grid ect.
There are ways to protect yourself from cyber warfare. In some instances perhaps the old way is the best way. Rather like the Russians do in some cases. Rather than hooking the nuclear power plant or any power plant and running it off the net maybe like hire people to work 24 hours who will operate the plant. You want secure communication with a loved one or friend drop em an old fashioned letter through the mail. Rather like Jimmy Carter does when he writes to leaders over seas.
Be a luddite and do your banking in person at the window with a person.
Puddy shows a fundamental misunderstanding that many people have. The internet is not secure and was never meant to be. It’s just a way to exchange information. It’s a great way to communicate during a nuclear war particularly when the government systems close their gateways to the rest of the internet. This makes the governments internet a little less useful. Someone may want to order some great underwear from Duluth.
These folks are confusing security with the internet. If the information is on a computer on the internet there is a risk someone can get it, change it, ect. There is no privacy on the internet. Perhaps government agencies should not be placing employee information on computers that end up on the internet, perhaps such information should remain in old fashion paper files, but those things are pricey to maintain and then to store. The bean counters hate paper files for any number of reasons unless the power goes out then they love em.
Does Mr. Hucklebee really believe that we are just pure and clean when it comes to cyber warfare. We are not pure and clean. Hitting North Korea with a cyber attack is a joke as they have no internet. Getting China is more possible but not easy as there is the Chinese Wall and exploiting it may expose the exploits that we may or may not have in the wall. So operationally it may be we could do such an attack, but it may be more useful to read the communications between the Chinese Politburo. Or between army leaders doing illicit deals between each other and the outside world. Or keep an eye on the communications between the leadership and the Princes and Princesses that study in this country. Maybe Mr. Huckebee is talking to his base and doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Rather like past Republican calls to close the Atomic Energy Commission ect. Odd how old Ronnie Reagan changed his tune so quickly and quietly on that. Now its the evil IRS. Yeah sure they will close the IRS down when pigs fly and they will eventually decide to give it the resources it requires to like collect taxes. If only to support limited government. Someone needs to pay the power bill at the lighthouses.
As North Korea and Iran and atomic weapons sorry I mean Weapons of Mass Destruction will be part of the upcoming election may I suggest reading: “To Kill Nations American Strategy in the Air-Atomic Age and the Rise of Mutually Assured Destruction: by Edward Kaplan.
Puddy shows a fundamental misunderstanding that many people have. WRONG! Puddy been in this industry a very long time Mark Adams. Maybe you should look in the mirror and stop projecting your stupidity on others.
How many web sites did you cut and paste for that “treatise”?
These folks are confusing security with the internet – Sure! Right! That’s why NSA is asking Apple and other high encryption companies to possess the keys to their security methods. http://www.washingtonpost.com/.....story.html R U another of those LIVs masquerading as a enlightened libtard? HAHAHAHAHA!
Yes Mark Adams, you are a moronic luddite!
Regarding MAD, the Chinese would love for their client state North Korea to attack the US. China would love to see what would happen if they could make a long range SCUD to deploy EMP over America! How about those special islands China is making in the South China Sea? Obummer runs to China to try and thwart the North Koreans was the funniest thing Puddy read late last year… http://www.washingtonpost.com/.....story.html
And China basically told the feckless one NO! Because China is at the forefront of cyber crime!
See ya!

More from above… Seems Obummer is going full Josef Stalin now!
The legal request, filed nearly four hours after Barack Obama vowed to sign a new law banning precisely the bulk collection he asks the secret court to approve, also suggests that the administration may not necessarily comply with any potential court order demanding that the collection stop.
US officials confirmed last week that they would ask the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance court – better known as the Fisa court, a panel that meets in secret as a step in the surveillance process and thus far has only ever had the government argue before it – to turn the domestic bulk collection spigot back on.
Simply amazing how the feckless one disregards courts and legal opinions! Cheered by the wireless encryption moron yellowishleakingbuttspigot arschloch! And y’all didn’t read this in your left wrong libtard BULLSHITTIUM sites…

The Great One Puddy calls out certain people for getting carried away with their enthusiasm for TWO TERM President Obama. – Yes crazed databaze deala yellowishleakingbuttspigot arschloch, your two terms of constitutional havoc is front and center!
@63 it has also been two terms of Puffy the Ape maniacal delusion.
If you’re a presidential candidate with a net worth of only $444,000 people will consider you a poverty case.

Seriously, our country is run by the rich, and unless you’re worth millions don’t even think of playing at politics.
@63 “Seems Obummer is going full Josef Stalin now!”
Bwaaahaaaaahaaaaahaaaaa!!! Puffy has finally, completely, totally lost it!!! If Obama is Stalin then Puffy is Pol Pot!
And that’s why they have the long knives out for Marco Rubio. A common man!
@57 It bothers you that Obama is behaving like Bush??? Better late than never, I guess.
Obummer is waaaaaaaaaaay worse than Bush! Done things Bush never dreamed of and he knew the libtard left wrong press would attack. Obummer gets a pass!
@67 A common man living off handouts from a billionaire patron, you mean. And he still can’t pay his bills.

Vs. Hillary taking donations from strange people world wide and then using 85% of your personal benefit vs. 15% of it for the poor people.
No thanks Hillary!
Even the poorest GOP candidate is detached from reality about poverty. Politifact rates Rubio’s views on welfare and poverty as “mostly false.”

Well the 2016 election should be interesting. Housing is unaffordable, more people are falling out of the middle class, and Republicans have no answers except more tax cuts for the super-rich.

If your job doesn’t pay enough to make rent, Rubio’s answer is go ask for church charity. He believes hunger and deprivation make families stronger and build character.
These Disney employees worked so hard they thought the boss was calling them in to give them bonuses. Instead, they were ordered to train their cheap-labor replacements from India.

Meanwhile, I’m making $3500 in the stock market today, 60 times what a $7.25/hr. worker makes, even though I do no work, produce nothing, and add no value. That’s how capitalism devalues work!

@81 Birds of a feather flock together.
I’m sure cheap labor conservatives love that outsourcing Disney story. They seems to love it when American workers lose their jobs,
“H-1B immigrants work for less than American tech workers, Professor Hira said at a hearing in March of the Senate Judiciary Committee, because of weaknesses in wage regulations. The savings have been 25 percent to 49 percent in recent cases, he told lawmakers.”
“Former employees said many immigrants who arrived were younger technicians with limited data skills who did not speak English fluently and had to be instructed in the basics of the work.”
but they are cheaper….
I have yet to find anyone who can explain how my marriage to my husband some how dilutes their marriage to their wife.
@61 So what industry are you in Puddy? Doubt that you knowwhat a gateway is or a CISCO router or how about a line of sight microwave or how about some tropo. Or for more fun how about some HF communications.
So what is a T1 dude? What can you use a T! for?
Apple isn’t an encryption company. Neither is Microsoft. Sure encryption is used on the internet, or by individuals to encrypt their data and that can get the NSA whitey tighteys in a bind. It does seem a corporation has rights if so doesn’t a corporation have the right to keep it’s communications secure and the communications of its users and customers. Doesn’t seem to the business of the NSA or Uncle Sam what folks say to each other. There is that odd constitution thing out there. Now I do agree that the NSA can spy and get information, but that information can’t be used to throw someone in prison or charge them with a crime. That isn’t the NSA’s purpose. Child porn isn’t the NSA balliwack and if it finds the largest purveyor of it that information should just go down a great big black hole because that isn’t their job. The security of the United States is. The NSA’s problem is that it loves creating huge haystacks of information that might contain some useful information, but the NSA is supposed to answer to our civilian leaders, who are supposed to answer to we the people. And while there are things that are legitimately secret or secret for a time the NSA is still answerable to the American public and not everything secret should be and too much secrecy threatens us all and our American Republic.
@62 Actuallyy the Chinese are not particularly happy with the North Koreans and yes to get at the US they will continue support, but there is more enough Chinese grumbling out there that suggests they know the North is about run its course and they would like to figure out a way form the Korea’s to reform under the leadership of South Korea rather than the chaos that will follow a collapse.
The Chinese know if the North Koreans misbehave they can be dragged into something they don’t want. That scares them. If North Korea were to o an EMP over the US within 12 hours the North will be a radioactive wasteland. e Chinese also know there will be at least one sub off their coast with the ability to launch and will launch on China adding to the disaster in the North drifting across their mutual border.
@89 Callin Puddy So you ain’t going to give a answer?
Well if you don’t want to answer that one so how about them Mariners?
