    The big news this afternoon is a terrorist attack in Paris killed 35 people, and 100 more are hostages.

    I think this is one of those situations where a government has to go in with force and kill every last one of those motherfuckers where he stands, even at the risk of losing some of the hostages.

    It was only this morning Obama said “We have contained them.” #ISIS

    Maybe it’s ISIS, maybe it isn’t.

    I just find Trump’s candor refreshing. I may not agree with him, but he speaks his mind. Like calling Carson “pathological”. I do understand where he’s coming from. And I can’t say I disagree. But it is a pathology they share. And it’s called sociopath. I think it’s a right wing requirement by a base that’s sociopaths. They have a pathological hatred for anyone that’s different. And it leads them to their own failures of competence and responsibility to do right by all the people. So as a nation we all suffer.

    CEO, now this:

    In 2003, after leaving Merrill Lynch, Mr. Blodget agreed to pay $4 million to settle accusations that he privately disparaged companies that he promoted in public. That deal included a lifetime ban from the industry by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

    But Mr. Blodget has found success in his new venture, drawing millions of readers to Business Insider’s particular brand of journalism and attracting millions of dollars from venture capitalists.

    Nice to see that spending all that time around a billionaire is having an effect on Goldy.

    @2 “Maybe it’s ISIS, maybe it isn’t.”

    We don’t know that yet, but even if they didn’t do it, they’re cheering, and that’s as good an excuse as any to finish them off. We still need to sort out who’s going to do what dirty work — Russia, France, the other European countries, the USA, and yes Iran also has skin in this game. I think this is a situation where the world needs to gang up on a rogue movement and put it down, as should’ve been done with Hitler before he and his followers got out of control.

    @3 “The captured gunman claimed this was an ISIS authorized attack.”

    It has that stench, doesn’t it? If so, it’s an act of war, and I can’t imagine France not responding militarily. It’s France’s 9/11. We’ll likely be in it, too. If this was ISIS, it’s boots-on-the-ground time for all of us.

    You’re behind the news. It’s 100+ dead and still counting. The attackers set off explosives in a crowded theater (where an American heavy metal band was entertaining Frenchies).

    Ehh didn’t France or any other European countries contained ISIS or offered to help? Is it because they look at this as Americas problem? Did America create all thi instability in the Middle East? France has always had a large population of Mudlims, you would have thought they would have been more involved in the interest of the region. You don’t think republicans alienated them by calling French fries freedom fries, do you? How can you say GWB kept is safe when he could t even negotiate France to fight a war? Freedom Fries for everyone.

    Funny something like what just happened in Paris hasn’t happened here on U.S soil on TWO TERM President Obama’s watch. Will the always wrong wing credit a TWO TERM President?
