We know that The Donald doesn't suffer fools and he'll come out swinging on the Fox debate on Thursday, August 6, 2015. Someone will ask him a stupid question and he'll say why are we talking about this nonsense, let's get to work. This country needs jobs, not a debating society. Here's what he'll tell to the other debate opponents.

Jeb: What have you done on your own? You inherited your father's political base. You're a legacy. Florida boomed during the real estate boom, but when it busted your state is a basket case. Were you a timeserver?

Rand Paul: You're a legacy too. You inherited your dad's political base. You didn't build it. What have you done? Tell me something. Kentucky doesn't have a great economy.

Scott Walker: Your state is a financial basket case; It's next to last in job creation. What have you accomplished? Aren't you ashamed of your state finances? Everybody is the state hates you, including Wisconsin's Republican politicians.

Ted Cruz: You're a psycho. You shut down the government because you threw a temper tantrum.

The Governor lets her adult daughter [who may be unemployed] freeload off of the state by parking her travel trailer on a dirt lot out back of the state mansion and hooked up to its utilities. The Guv denied that her daughter was using state resources without authorization even with the travel trailer [visibly, see the pictures on the link] hooked up to the mansion's water and electricity. As it's 100 degrees the fifth wheel travel trailer's two air contioners are probably using a lot of electricity.
In a related story Cliven [freeloader] Bundy says he still doesn't owe the federal government any money for his cattle grazing on federal lands for the last 20 years.

We are now paid in Monopoly Money.

In January 2001, the beginning of the George W Bush era, 5 of your US Dollars would buy an ounce of silver (80 bucks for pound of silver). Now it takes 34 of your US Dollars to buy an ounce of silver, 544 bucks to buy a pound of silver).

Your US Dollars are now worth 15 cents when compared to what it was worth is Janury 2001 silver.

Aren't we a smiley, happy country. And the Pokemkn village rolls on.

Maybe the Occupy Wall Street bunch have a point. After all, poverty has increased about 50 percent since 2001.

There were several hundred people at the state capitol in Oklahoma City today. They held an event at about noon 'til 2pm in solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street group in that is encamped in Kerr Park in downdown Oklahoma City.

The OWS-OKC marched 2 miles from their downtown encampment to the state capitol today. Of course the major statewide newspaper (ultra-conservative) headquartered in Oklhoma City didn't cover it. Neither did any of the other media, TV stations, or talk radio stations. However, a minor state newspaper, the Edmond Sun, covered it, with pictures. They probably hope that if they don't cover it then the DFH will just go away. Of course the people in solidarity is generally not hippies, they are working people that are tired of getting screwed.

Nathaniel "Batch" Batchelder, leader of the local Peace House was there, as was James N. Branum, local Green Party attorney and GI Rights Hotline advocate.

NATO doesn't report Afghanistan civilan deaths; with poll

An MSNBC.com news service story from Kabul, Afghanistan reported that a NATO official said that 13 people were killed when a suicide bomber rammed a military convoy in the Afghanistan capitol of Kabul. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack. NATO initially reported that all 13 killed were service members. Later on it confirmed that 8 were civilians working for the coalition and 5 were soldiers.

The Afghan Ministry of Interior said 3 Afghan civilians and 1 policeman also died in the attack. There were 8 other Afghans, including 2 children and 4 other civilians, wounded, said Kabir Amiri, head of Kabul hospitals.

NATO, after a full decade of war, can't even correctly report a death toll in a suicide bombing. The MSNBC web site's headline is "NATO: 13 killed in Kabul attack". There were 18 people that died in a suicide attack, 17 victims and 1 suicide bomber.

NATO's reports consider Afghanistan people to be Non-People when they die in a suicide attack, and the suicide bomber is always considered a Non-Person. The Afghanistan Ministry of Interior corrected the record to add the 4 Afghanistan deaths.

The second decade of the Afghanistan War has become an Orwellian Nightmare of doublespeak.
