The rule is no matter how good looking someone is sooner or later you have to talk to them. So physical beauty is low on the pole since it is fleeting.

When you look up ugly in the dictionary the definition says "see Deaves".

Never said any other president behaved bad. Just that GHWB and GWB are close friends with Bill Clinton and they spend a lot of time together working on projects helping others.

As a former Director of Internal Audit for a large corporation I can say it is somewhat lonely. I could not be personal friends with anyone at work to avoid appearing biased or protecting someone one way or the other.

I would enjoy meeting any president. Politicians today should take a page from GHW Bush, B. Clinton and GW Bush on how to behave.

Just look at Bejing's air. China has vast areas that are contaminated. They closed factories during the Olympics so the air would clear for the TV cameras. If China is the leader then the world is doomed.

You need to read the non-binding treaty not listen to the new media as what is in it. The treaty is clearly non-binding. Russia and China are not held to the same start date. They got a ten year reprieve and would not have to start till 2024.

I agree with you. The LL have drank the Kool-Aid and there is no going back. The real objective is to reduce the standing of the USA in the world and to weaken our economy.

If you read the agreement the USA was committed to pay$100 million to other countries as well as pay for our own commitments. Russia, China and India got a pass on doing anything for 10 years. Nothing in the agreement was binding on any country. It was a joke of an agreement just to say "We did something". Only the ones that did not read and understand the agreement believe it was a workable treaty. It would have cost the USA a ton of money and nothing would have gotten better. China does not care about pollution. As Mao said "if we loose 100 million people that is not going to hurt us". Bejing is so polluted you cannot see down the street on some days. Russia is still dealing with Chernobyl. India has very little pollution control on the factories or farming. They are only interested in feeding the billion people they have.  less

Maybe he wants the USA to not have to pay $100 million a year to countries that will not stop polluting.

Now maybe a real working treaty can be developed.

You cannot just use the eye-for-eye punishment if it does not stop the violent behavior in the perpetrator. Protection of others is the objective of punishment. If the punishment deters future violence then great but that is not the usual result.Separating the violent from the benevolent is the best way we have now to protect the majority of people.

We have to much government running our lives for us.It amazes me when Democrats make millions and billions it is ok. George Soros is a multi billionaire and many of Hollywood's minions are millionaire 1%'ers. Yet they keep making millions and no complaints. We just had an audit of the fire department in Kansas City MO. One firefighter earned over $227,000 in 2016. That is a firefighter. A soldier in the Army makes less than $30,000 fighting in combat. A librarian for Kansas University makes $324, 000 per year off the taxpayers. Liberals never complain about how much they make.  less

I think you need to read George Lakoff's book on the rules for the Progressives that have taken over the Democrat party.His book is the guide force behind George Soros and the Progressives driving the changes in the Democrat party.

It is happening now with ISIS.

Yes it does reward bad behavior. To many people want to take the path of least resistance. Easy to go along than take a stand and say "this is wrong, stop"

That was history repeating itself. Hitler did the same thing. In the 1800's the black Hatians  killed all white people on the island. Just to get rid of them. Humans have not changed in it's history. Great ability for good and evil.

Imagine a world where there is only one type of dog, bird, fish, snake or only one of each species. Pretty boring after a short while.

That genocide was tribal. If not Hutu then you had to go. Killing was the only choice. Amazing how the world stood by and let that happen.

The communist did not pack up and leave. They joined the democrat party. Nothing new about that.

I have had responsibility to ensure compliance with DF act since the inception in 2002. It is a huge waist of money (millions per year) and time. Has driven up cost that get passed onto the consumers in the prices they pay for products and has done nothing to prevent or deter fraud. All the large fraud cases since 2002 were subject to DF and it did nothing to prevent or detect the fraud. DF was written for the CPA firms that failed to do their jobs and tried to shift the blame to the business. Yes the business has the primary responsibility to prevent and detect fraud but the CPA's are supposed to give the investors the confidence the financial statements are true and correct. DF does nothing to further that assurance.It is the Tone at the Top of the companies that prevents and detects fraud. If the auditors don't think like a crook they will not catch crooks.  less

Yes. Only once did I see a neighbor bring beer to the house. We never had it around. No drugs were used either. Not a religious thing. We were not religious. Just never had it around.

Another reason is Americans can carry firearms where Europe you cannot.

A similar tactic was used by the British in the 1800's. The arabs were throwing their bodies across the railroad tracks to derail the trains.The Brit's used pork fat to coat the rails. The problem stopped.

Tell China if they do not get rid of NK's nuke we would place an embargo on Chinese goods coming into America. China would never take military action against the US. They have to much to lose domestically.If China did not get on board then hacking NK's control system would be the first step. Then destroy their ability to produce and launch nukes would be the last resort. A military strike would harm/kill NK's that have no choice but to server their masters. In the end, all said and done. I would be pre-emptive to protect our citizens and allies.  less

The difference now is they do have nuclear weapons and a way to deliver them at least short range. Can they nuke San Fransisco? probably not but what about Guam, Hawaii or our allies South Korea and Japan. The likely hood of NK actually launching a strike is very remote. China has to much to lose if they did. China will stop NK to protect China's interest. China has a lot to lose if NK did attack with nukes. If our intelligence showed they were planning to launch then destroying their launch site would be justifiable to protect the thousands of lives at risk of a nuclear blast. I suspect NK's military's leader know full well a war with the US would last for a very short time. China would not defend them this time. If the US blocked all of China's imports China's economy would collapse.  less

I only invest in companies that I understand their business and where they are in the market.When the market corrects it is not across the board decline. If you know the company you invest in and it is a sound company that people want or need it will weather the storm just fine. When the decline starts many people will sell out of fear. The time to buy is after the sell off. Then the market will recover and you gain.  

Individuals can engage in pre-emptive strikes but it is a fine line to walk. If someone is using a weapon in a threatening manor toward you, you do not have to wait till they injure you to defend yourself.

It is possible but not likely. The safety stops will kick in at a 10% drop and suspend trading. It could happen with a total loss of faith in the American economy.

Never saw the conservatives rioting in the streets or attacking people after BO was elected. Even with his hate speech and discriminator policies.
