Comment on Last Night’s State of the Union by Shoeless

Why even have a comments section? Why hold out the facade that you even want to hear other opinions? Why not just embrace the censorship you so often rail against?

Seriously.

If this was your first State of the Union, I find it amusing that you feel you can identify if the speech was or was not self serving and political.

Let’s compare last night with last year:

Not that the republicans are any better, but don’t fawn over something just because you (personally) haven’t heard it before. It shows ignorance.

The only candidate who wants us out of the job of world policeman is Ron Paul. That is whay the rank and file have contributed more money to his campaign than any other candidate. Obama promised we’d be out of Afghanistan and he would close Gitmo. Rhetoric is just that.

Regarding “The Wall Street Journal is reporting that banks and financial companies will see their lowest salaries since 2008. Paychecks at Goldman Sachs will be cut with the company’s average salary of $431,000 falling to $385,000. Fixed-income trading businesses may get smaller by 60 percent, and Morgan Stanley will be cutting bonuses by 40%.”

I don’t see anything about the executives giving up their bonuses or paying back bonuses, or anything about the execs who lied and committed fraud being indicted. Why are the workers penalized for what the liars at the top did?

We need Anthony Weiner back in the senate along with Alan Grayson, we have lost some of our smartest and courageous congressman this yr. 2011. And now Barrney Franks is to retire, this is not good for the 99% or the 80 percenters.

Comment on Liberia’s Runoff Election by Titus

we have witness many blood share for fourteen years in Liberia,but it seems like we have not learn enought from our past experience. If election results can allowe Liberians to killed their brothers,is a clear indication that peace is not yet restore and our illiteracy rate is still on the increase. But if what I have observed is proven wrongly regarding illiteracy causing problem, I stand to be corrected.The pass election results pronouncment that leads to runoff should not be reason for public uprising or buycot.Many countries has gone through this and Liberia should have done the same to avoid trouble, as we proclimed to be a peace loving nation.I regret the lost but strongly condemn the act of protesting.it is setting that many Liberians around the world feels very disturbed and disappointed with this news.If we continue to allowe politic to disrupt peace and make us to exile all of our lives, is a sad news for our up coming future leaders and our history that Liberia is built on a christian principles will be in vin. Unity must be our close neighbor and love must become the over all, no matter how we fall apart. Liberians let us unit and built our nation for a better tomorrow.

Not only that there is no substantive showing of fraud, the CDC still claims fraud. Here’s an interview that the party’s figurehead leader gave to Reuters: http://uk.reuters.com/article/2011/11/06/uk-liberia-election-tubman-idUKTRE7A52OQ20111106.
