The Fox (and other right leaning media) has one objective for the past 2 years. To wash clean the republican party of any wrong doing after 8 disastrous years. Just to remind people...Bush was barely having any approval rate in his second term..but Fox relies on the fact, that many GOP backers were extremely dissatisfied when Obama was elected. So they have been eating the sour grape for the past 2 years and found their candyman - Fox News, which had a serious controversial and unprofessional behavior of circulating BS news during the election time.

I'm not trying to save Obama here..he has got some major issues that many won't agree and won't like, but what really is leading to his demise is his light handed way of dealing with his worst opponents, sometimes bending over for them, while many were actually voting for Obama to go after those people in the first place.

This makes Obama look weak and easily pushed around by anyone..a puppet. And trust evaporates as people see no progress , no matter what..even though they would just "want to" trust Obama, but he is not listening anymore and he himself destroying his own supporter base.


Meanwhile the other side uses various forms of propaganda to alienate the entire government from the people and especially gain back the momentum they lost after the 2008 elections. So they will be throwing the kitchen sink if they need to.
The current economic crisis is a perfect environment for extremism to grow and the republicans are using it as a weapon against the current administration. There is some truth that the Obama administration isn't doing enough, many realizes that, but they also realize the fact, that the GOP has been riding on this to gain support.

I say, anyone with a conscious mind is just as confused right now..I would say this mid-term election time, the biggest voting base will be either the non-voters and the independents.

Ok, quick question, he didn't add me as a friend, but I can now see more on his profile, it used to be I couldn't see anything, too private. I thought he just changed it for everyone to see it like that, but a friend said she was looking at his profile, and she couldn't see anything at all. I'm confused, how can I see more but she can't, ????


He lowered the privacy settings just for you. For some reason not adding you (maybe he isn't FB savvy either) he figured he just sets the privacy controls down a few notches just for you.
If he is good at FB, there might be a reason he didn't add you..not sure what..doesn't want his friends know that he is dating you or something...I can't tell..I can only guess. Good luck!

*googling Leasure Suit Larry*


Ohh..you are in trouble. Leasure Suit Larry has been a legend..some of the first games with him came out in the late 90s.

The games' aim to get Larry laid through discussions and situations. It gets really funny.

Nine years after 9/11 sent US-Saudi relations crashing to a low point, bilateral ties have made a complete 180-degree turnaround with the Obama administration's plan to sell up to $60 billion worth of advanced aircraft to Saudi Arabia.

The package, which would be the US's largest-ever overseas arms sale and has been in negotiations since 2007, underscores how Israel no longer feels threatened by Saudi Arabia and how the US increasingly sees the Gulf state as essential toward containing Iran, says Thomas Lippman at the Council on Foreign Relations.

"It’s a reminder to the Iranians," says Mr. Lippman, that if Tehran continues down a nuclear path "the response will be to so beef up regional rivals and enemies that their overall position will be diminished."

The Wall Street Journal reported that the package would include 84 new Boeing F-15 fighter jets and upgrades to another 70 of them. It would also include three types of helicopters: 72 Black Hawk helicopters, 70 Apaches, and 36 Little Birds. In addition, US officials are discussing a $30 billion package to upgrade Saudi Arabia’s naval forces.

The White House is reportedly set to notify Congress of the deal within the next month, which would set off a 30-day congressional review period. It is expected to be touted as a way to spur new job growth and support at least 75,000 jobs at Boeing and United Technologies, the Journal reported.

Despite the prospect of new jobs, such a proposal would have been politically untenable several years ago, says Lippman, the adjunct senior fellow for Middle Eastern Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations. In the years after 9/11, he says, "a deal like this would have simply inflamed the foam-at-the-mouth crowd. They must have calculated that it won’t."

To Americans, says Lippman, Saudi Arabia was synonymous with terrorism and Al Qaeda following revelations that many of the 9/11 plane hijackers were Saudis, and anti-American rhetoric ran high in Saudi mosques and madrassas. Riyadh was on rocky terms with the White House at the beginning of the century amid George W. Bush’s pledges to promote democracy and freedom in the Middle East. In 2004, the US for the first time ever included Saudi Arabia alongside Burma and North Korea in the list of eight countries it describes as seriously violating religious freedom.

But by the end of President Bush's term, Lippman says Riyadh became cozier with Washington, and Bush had softened his stance. In 2008, Bush visited Riyadh twice and also gave details of the aircraft sale that is now nearing completion. Then as now, arming Saudi Arabia was seen as a way to counter Iran.


“The Saudis can certainly make the case to Washington that Iran is a growing threat, so their argument seems to grow for getting such sophisticated planes," James Phillips, senior research fellow for Middle Eastern affairs at the Heritage Foundation in Washington, told the Monitor in June when Saudi King Abdullah visited the White House to discuss the Saudis’ bid to purchase a large number of F-15 fighter jets.

Yet such a deal would also have been adamantly opposed by Israel years ago. During the 1980s, Israel opposed the sale of aircraft and missiles to Jordan and Saudi Arabia, according to a 2004 Congressional Research Service briefing. In 1986, the Senate blocked President Reagan’s sale of shoulder-launched “Stinger” missiles to Riyadh amid American and Israeli objections – although a denuded arms package eventually went through.

Israeli concerns about the newest deal have been reportedly calmed by assurances that the jets will lack long-range weapons systems and be of a lower grade than those sold to Israel. Defense Minister Ehud Barak has reportedly discussed the deal with US officials and a US Defense Department official told Reuters that Israel is "fairly comfortable" with it overall. As an editorial in The Jerusalem Post recently highlighted, "If the US does not sell to the Gulf states, EU countries or even Russia, which are much less receptive to Israeli interests, might fill the vacuum."

Washington, Tel Aviv, and Riyadh today all share concerns about Tehran possessing a nuclear weapon. "In contrast [to the 1980s], today, the US, Israel and the Saudis are on the same page as far as Iran is concerned," The Jerusalem Post editorial declared. Lippman, in a 2008 policy brief (pdf) for the Middle East Institute, argued that Riyadh would feel compelled to build or acquire its own nuclear arsenal in the case of Tehran going nuclear.

"Part of what the [Obama] administration is doing," Lippman adds, "is to convince the Saudis that we can take care of their security concerns without them getting nuclear."

Relax lpdon and lay off from faux news..every single news you post comes from fox news.

There will be no war with Iran, the USA is dead broke and stalled in 2 places at once, Iraq and Afghanistan.

Afghanistan alone is bankrupting the USA and the biggest concerns are domestic issues, regarding jobs and economy.


Ummm, I use CNN(when Fox is down).

We won't be going into Iran as long as we have a pansy in the White House.


Tell me how another (3rd) war will benefit your life.


We can get back INNOCENT American's in Iranian custody.........


and that calls for a war? Bomb them kill them ?

Why dont' wee see post about Uganda or Sweden? Hey North Korea is a a bigger threat, since it has nuclear weapons already and threatened not once by many times and yet Faux is fixated on the Middle East relentlessly while riling up the people in USA to hate Muslims at all cost. Even the blind can see they are all nothing but propaganda.

Interesting time piece

January 28, 1981: Reagan Officials Planning to Sell Arms to Iran
The newly installed Reagan administration publicly maintains a hard line against Iran, a nation vastly unpopular among Americans who have not forgiven that nation for holding 52 of its citizens hostage for well over a year and murdering a CIA station chief. (Years later, Vice President Bush will call it “an understandable animosity, a hatred, really,” and add, “I feel that way myself.”) President Reagan’s secretary of state, Alexander Haig, says bluntly, “Let me state categorically today there will be no military equipment provided to the government of Iran.” Yet within weeks of taking office, Reagan officials will begin putting together a continuing package of secret arms sales to Iran.

Ever felt like, you make a connection with someone..not much but just talking and chatting, exchanging pictures and just being friendly.
You may even talk about possible how you like him or her..but nothing big and the other goes NUTS on you?

Getting flooded with messages and mails and whatnot..and you are interested but it's just too much and too quickly and the other one is playing an emotional game on you, like if you don't answer each mails he or she starts making conspiracy theories how you are pushing her away etc??

And eventually THIS what starts driving you away, with you hands up slowly making steps backward to increase the distance, but at the same time you still getting these emotional outbursts from the other and now you start actually feel guilty about the whole thing?

Hmm?

I did a google search how many sites reporting on this story, but it seems like there is only one. Others link back to the same webpage.
