BARRISTER's Comments (314)

“"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"!”

“If your thesis is that judaism represents "The West", it is axiomatic that "The West" would include the Faith of Islam as well. You happy with that Rabbi?”

“Who the hell was it that Tiger killed? What is wrong with him having encounters? Which one of us, in our brief moments of honest reflection, does not say "...darn, I wish I had his money, fame, success at my chosen proffession and the ability to have my choice of female companionship whereever and whenever I want". It is only those who HONESTLY do not think that can be critical. In any event, it is hios choice. He is not paid NOT to have women. He is paid to play golf at the highest level. Has his having many women made him a worse golfer.

Grow to phuch up America!”

“What is it with you folks/ Whose business is it who Tiger 'mauls"? His extra-golf activiyies are his business, not ours.

As for the Swedish babysitter who struck gold, was she as "shocked" by his wealth and power when she met him and began to feel the feel? She is just a gold digger.

If El Tigre had just married a non white woman, none oif this would have mattered. He chose the wrong club. He is now in the hazard.

But, truth be told, like every other successful black person in America, they are always gunning for you.”

“bermanator:

Wrong!

"assymetrical warfare" as you call it, was being practised in Palestine by the Jews against the British Administrators and the Palestine People right up to 1948. Then it was called "Nationalism" as the Euorpeans of the Fewish Faith wreaked havoc on the Palestinian People. Now the same military tactics are called "assymetrical warfare". The bulk of the InternationalLaws to which you refer were created AFTER 1945.

All sides need to step back and accept Peace. Stop any type of warfare, symetrical and assymetrical.

Peace.”

“Is it "American" for people to die because they cannot afford private Health Insurance?
Is it "American" for people to make millions of dollars in nett profit from sick people?
The Highways YOU drive on are Federal Government!
The Armed Forces you Right Wingers mollycoddle are Federal Government!
The Border Agents, INS, Customs etc are Federal Government!
The airtraffic control system is Federal Government!
The Coast Guard that protects the seas are Federal Government!
Why not just do away with ALL government and lets see how you "Free Marketeers" survive.
No Congress. No Laws to Govern and regulate. No Armed Forces to defend ( and attack innocent countries to create work for Blackwater etc), No airtraffic control therefore airlines, no highways, nothing provided by Government at all.
In the meantime the rest of us will step away from you spacelings while you self destruct asyou are self destructing the American Empire with your "Free Market" ideology.
Peace”

“True, Sherysherry, true what you say about george W. Bush.”

“Why is it that we think we should dictate to a woman that she cannot make a man, or woman, pay her for the honour of coupling with her? Who are we to impose our hypocritical "values" on others?
If you think about it, every man and woman exchanges money or money value for sex. When you take your date to dinner etc. and you pay the cost, you then have "consensual sex in a relationship". How is that different to a woman or man having a short date with someone they are not in a long term relationship with and, instead of buying them dinner etc., they give that person the money to buy dinner etc.,? Like a spouse giving the other spouse money, gifts, a roof over their head etc., it is a Law of Nature for there to be an exchange related to the sex act.

A woman has a Right to demand money in exchange for the honour of your use of it. Perhaps all the hypocrites who are against that, for whatever reasons they spout, should shut their blather and get on with their own lives, and stop doing anything which benefits their spouses or partners or dates.

America: the land of Universally failed policies of banning certain human behaviour.”

“There can be no such thing as "excess of freedom".”

“What is wrong with Americans? It is not us who selects the Nobel Winners. It is the Nobel Committee.
Our views and opinions do NOT matter. Let it be.”

“Repeal the un Patriot jingoistic Stalinistic Act. now!”

“Your argument is pointless. Lets start with the 30% which Insurers keep for themselves out of your premium. Would't the eradication of that produce an immediate savings?

Singlepayer Universal Healthcare now!”

“Mr. Rattigan put that NeoCon liar former Lt. Gov. of New York in her place yesterday.

We need more journalists like Rattigan!!”

“The American Empire is no more.”

“Thou art surely a jester! Lest you missed it, the article had a point and it was not about protests.”

“Only in a Just World where each Nation is treated equitably, will there be Peace. In such a World there is no G20, or "Superpower" imposing their Nationalist Agenda at the barrel of a gun or threat of Economic Blacklisting on other Nations and Peoples. When we recognize this and begin to treat others as we would wish to be treated, there will be no need for boycotts. The reality is that all of the reasons which spur the G20 and our own "Superpower" to act in this bullying way at home. Tthe G20. They claim "Offshore Tax Havens" and the sub-prime mortgage takers, not lenders,are the causes for the World Financial Crisis. Nothing about the vulgar abusus of their own in creating fictional money based on gambling with non existent assets -derivitives and their counterparts like 'credit default swaps' etc. Creating all this "money" was heralded as being inovative. Until calls were made for funds in banks. Then there were no funds to back this 'new money'. All houdini-like, Las vegas paper 'money'. They ignore that they have ravaged their own middle class by the offshoring of the fundamental blood of an economy: manufacturing jobs.
In their piggish greed for the next dollar, they have destroyed the basis of growth in their own economies and must permit the false creation of wealth so as to be able to bowwoe from the very countries to which they have transfused their wealth.

They need to boycott themselves.”

“If it were a white Southrn girl in Aruba the Press and Politicians would be all over this.”

“The problem now is, and at the Ballot boxes next year will be for Democrats, the continued existence of private Health Insurance Companies which will reap multi-billions of extra dollars from us by way of extorted premiums, aka mandates. These companies provide no value added and act as middlemen for a 30% commission. Better for Government to collect all the premiums and deal directly with hospitals, doctors, pharmaceutical companies etc. Savings; At least 30%. Additional Benefits: No rejections etc. Name: Single Payer, National Universal Healthcare. Beneficiaries: We The People of These United States. Losers: those Insurance Companies who, like animals, thrive off the sufferings and deaths of We the People of These United states.

Quod Erat Demonstrandum!”

“Unfortunately. if it is a Tax it is Constitutional.”

“Sorry, it is not Florida's Senator Nelson.”

“All of a sudden, "Free Speech" is being waved about like a Lifesaver. Remember Scott Ritter? The Dixie Chicks? Ambassador Joseph Wilson? Well these good people were victimized, sleezed and called unpatriotic, treasonous and such similar vituperatives for exactly that (exercising their "Freedom of Speech" ) by Republicans and their supporters who, incidentally, would rant and rave at anyone who deared oppose their Supreme Court selected President "in time of War"!!

The time has come when they must be called to account for this outright dishonesty.”

“Do Republican's drive on the Interstate Highways? Do they support our Armed Forces? Do they fly in airplanes into, out of and intra these United States? Do they eat? Go to the beach?
Well, lets reduce this "Big Government", and its "Government Takeover", and its "Government Spending" and see how they will do any of these activities without Government involvement.”

“Without hyperbole, it is Treasonous to gut American manufacturing and send it overseas. Manufacturing created the American Middle Class which fueled the American Economy into being the greatest ever known. Destroying the American Manufacturing base destroys the American Middle Class. Destroying the American Middle Class destroys the American Economy. Destroying the American Economy destroys America. Destroying America is Treason. Dept. of Justice should seriously commence prosecutions against all who advocate destroying America.”

“Both Hatch and McCain, like every other Republican in the Senate, have had many opportunities to vote 'yes' on a Health Proposal of one kind or another put forward by Senator Kennedy from the start of the careers up to now. Neither of them, and very few of their collegues have ever supported any such.

Their crocodilian tears and "passion" for Teddy Kennedy will serve to undo them all.

Power to The People!!!”

“Yet, people like you gave and continue to give G.H.W. Bush and his sons lifetime passes on their behaviour, notwithstanding that they have done things which command inspection by the Law well past their fortieth birthdays. Moreover, I therefore take it that Cheney is still under 40??”
