Friends and Fiends | 11/10/2010 | Friends and Fiends

Just spoke with old friend, very senior retired USN skipper. Says his contacts, many of whom were his "boys," are concerned with how stupid the MSM and Americans are and at how the Internet has fueled rampant ignorance.

As I was calling him, he was calling me to call my military and IC friends to have a laugh and share some scotch to ease our aching heads.

Quix,

I agree with nearly all you have typed. I agree there are problems, but being we are all human, problems will never be ended. I agree with most all of your thoughts. I have followed you for a number of years. btw...I was not stalking you. As long as there are humans, mistakes will be made. Some humans are nothing but a mistake (mho), but God will sort that one out, in the end.

I came to the thread late. I was confused till I read down. I am still somewhat confused, only because the nature of mankind is to be in a state of confusion till God answers all.

If I have been out of line, with anything I have typed to you, I offer my sincere apology. I remain somewhat confused, not with you, not with this thread, but confused, as a 'general' state of mind.

I pray God will have pity on our nation, for our nation has made so many mistakes. Yes, may we, as a nation, correct our mistakes, and ask God for forgiveness for our mistakes. I think God sometimes chuckles when watching us, for as his Son said with his dying breath, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do."

May we know, what we do is correct, right, and proper, soon.

It is a mistake to think America's left, including those in Big Media are stupid and don't realize the harm their policies and propaganda do to our great nation.

And then there are the clueless sheeple who go about their daily lives accepting the left tenants of big government, corrupt capitalist, political correctness run wild and multiculturalism.

But that integral is only true for small values of infinity.

And large values of zero.

TRUE. TRUE.

Then they should get the blazes out of the way and quit being lumps in the middle of the road.

As Texans know . . .

there’s nothing in the middle of the road but a yellow stripe and dead armadillos.

Is that a countable or an uncountable infinity?

Shirley, you joust!

One carnot be more serious about such. Truth be told, like the theoretical dark matter and dark energy now required in the universe lest the general math be only relatively right, we knead only the dark numbers to create uncountable delight!

Barack Obama: We Must Embrace Globalism And The Emerging One World Economy
The Economic Collapse ^ | 11/10/10 | Michael Snyder

Posted on Wednesday, November 10, 2010 10:03:19 AM by FromLori

Although it received very little coverage in the mainstream media, Barack Obama made some comments about globalism during his speech in Mumbai, India that were very eye-opening. As he was discussing the new realities of world trade in 2010, Obama warned against “those who see globalization as a threat” and he spoke of the “integrated world” in which we all now live. But is merging the entire globe into a one world economy, a one world financial system and a one world labor market really the best thing for the American people?

For the past two decades, all U.S. presidents have been heralding the benefits of merging the American economy with the rest of the globe. George Bush Sr., Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama have all steadfastly supported the emerging one world economy. These presidents have each used different terms to describe this process such as “globalism”, “globalization”, “an integrated world”, “the global economy” and even “a New World Order”, but they have all meant the same thing. All of these presidents have sought to integrate the United States even more deeply into the developing one world economic system.

Barack Obama showed very clearly how he feels about globalism when he made the following statement during his speech in Mumbai....

“This will keep America on its toes. America is going to have to compete. There is going to be a tug-of-war within the US between those who see globalization as a threat and those who accept we live in a open integrated world, which has challenges and opportunities.”

Seems that since Reagan this has been the direction.
