  1. Yet if a significant portion of those oil reserves prove to be unrecoverable – either because climate-conscious governments or social movements compel fossil fuel companies to stop extraction – that means those assets would be worth a whole lot less. LMFAO! Just exactly how Vince are they suppose to predict that? Come on you have to be smarter than that.
  2. Read the bold. All but admitting to spying on the Trump team.
  3. Oops. Nothing to see here. What was the assistant SoD doing with any of this. They are not an investigative branch of the Administration. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/03/29/former-obama-official-discloses-rush-to-get-intelligence-on-trump-team.html A former top Obama administration official has acknowledged efforts by her colleagues to gather intelligence on Trump team ties to Russia before Donald Trump took office and to conceal the sources of that intelligence from the incoming administration. Evelyn Farkas, deputy assistant secretary of defense under Obama, made the disclosure while on the air with MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski. “I was urging my former colleagues and, frankly speaking, the people on the Hill, it was more actually aimed at telling the Hill people, get as much information as you can, get as much intelligence as you can, before President Obama leaves the administration,” Farkas, who is now a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, said. “Because I had a fear that somehow that information would disappear with the senior [Obama] people who left, so it would be hidden away in the bureaucracy ... that the Trump folks – if they found out how we knew what we knew about their ... the Trump staff dealing with Russians – that they would try to compromise those sources and methods, meaning we no longer have access to that intelligence.” The comments come as lawmakers on Capitol Hill clash over House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes' claim last week that surveillance operations incidentally collected Trump team communications during the transition. Critics have accused Nunes of carrying water for Trump and called on him to recuse himself from Russia matters, but Nunes and his congressional allies have pushed back. Aside from questions over whether communications were improperly gathered during the transition and before, there is speculation over how widely such information was disseminated. Farkas described a rush to spread the material before Trump took office. "So I became very worried because not enough was coming out into the open and I knew that there was more. We have very good intelligence on Russia," she said. "So then I had talked to some of my former colleagues and I knew that they were trying to also help get information to the Hill."

    Wealthiest man I personally know didn't graduate the 8th grade. Now all of a sudden a college degree determines intelligence or success?
  5. And just what party got us deep into that quagmire?
  6. Seen something on the news were a liberal organization "fairly" looked into it and even they were surprised at the results.
  7. We use to have rocket fights with bottle rockets. I don't know if I ever laughed so hard.
  8. I remember in some of my kids baseball tournaments the losers brackets 2nd place trophy was bigger than the championship bracket 1st place trophy. The mere fact they have to take orders from a superior is difficult for a lot of kids today. Nuts.
  9. 1. Hannity is not a anchor. His show while dealing with facts also has opinion's from both sides. 2. 45 minute interview with Hannity they showed 2 minutes cut to how they wanted it to look.
  10. Today's news. Simply say what you want with no repercussions. Sickening. Proof of it getting to the American people is the fact that Trump won.
  11. CNN Contributor Claims Flynn and FBI Struck a Deal, Later Admits She Has No Evidence http://freebeacon.com/politics/cnn-contributor-claims-flynn-fbi-struck-deal-later-admits-no-evidence/
  12. According to Association spokesperson, Helen Dabney-Coyle, "By removing the ball, it's absolutely impossible to say 'this team won' and 'this team lost' or 'this child is better at soccer than that child.'""We want our children to grow up learning that sport is not about competition, rather it's about using your imagination. If you imagine you're good at soccer, then, you are." LMFAO at these people. Sorry not everyone can be good at everything. My kids weren't great at singing and they knew it because I was honest and told them. They didn't pursue singing. BFD move on to something you are good at. 5:15 mark
  13. Often times they have their airlines uniform on.

  15. God it must suck to be you MC. Go ahead and jump.
  16. Obama had a secret email code name for when he communicated with Hillary thru her private email server. Secret email codes are good. Especially when dealing with classified information at the highest levels of govt. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/sep/24/obama-used-pseudonym-emails-hillary-clinton-fbi/ By Andrew Blake - The Washington Times - Saturday, September 24, 2016 President Obama emailed Hillary Clinton using a pseudonym while she served as his secretary of state, according to FBI documents released Friday. The president’s previously unreported use of a pen name is referenced in notes from federal investigators’ April 5, 2016 interview with Huma Abedin, one of Mrs. Clinton’s closest aides, contained within 189 pages of records released late Friday afternoon by the FBI concerning its review of the Democratic presidential nominee’s use of a private email server while in office. During that interview, investigators showed the aide an email exchange dated June 28, 2012 with the subject “Re: Congratulations!” “Abedin did not recognize the name of the sender. Once informed that the sender’s name is believed to be a pseudonym used by the president, Abedin exclaimed ‘How is this not classified?’” according to the FBI’s summary of the interview. “Abedin then expressed her amazement at the president’s use of a pseudonym and asked if she could have a copy of the email.” The FBI’s revelation quickly spurred questions about the president’s past claims concerning his knowledge of Mrs. Clinton’s private email server. Mrs. Clinton’s non-governmental email address was first revealed in 2013 when a Romanian computer hacker breached the AOL account of Sidney Blumenthal, a longtime Clinton confidant, and subsequently leaked messages to the media that were sent to an account operated by Mrs. Clinton’s outside of the .gov realm.
  17. Of course Toyota wanted them to be saved. They knew the govt would protect union workers and have an advantage in their own non-union factories.
  18. I did. Where did Cheney get all of his classified information? Did he pull a Sandy Berger and stuff documents in his sock stealing them from the NA's. Oops I forgot that was a Clinton guy.
  19. So you don't think someone or group wouldn't have swooped in and purchased GM for the right price?
  20. OMFG! Now they are posting what Cheney says as word of god.
  21. The auto industry would have been scooped up and maintained for the right price. The govt did it for the Unions.
  22. Lets not forget the $4.5 Trillion in QE the US has done. FUBAR
