World Nut Daily.

The #1 source for cut-n-pasting for the deep right-field nutjobs.

Seriously, Sard, you should check out Assault Web or Stormfront. They are right up your alley.

Good point AM.
Ichty - is there something specific you disagree with in the article?

It's a fawkin' joke. WND has all the credibility as The 700 club.

In an attempt to be concise and to the point 'rhoid. Stick it! I know you don't like the facts of the matter. So again Stick it. If you agree with those protesting nut cases the article is about. stick it again. I will find my own sources and most assuredly not any of your touts. Stick it "rhoid.
ps Sorry, no alleys.

Aw Crap. It's hot and sticky out. Been working in the garden pulling itch's and other weeds. I just cannot overlook the 'rhoids reaction to the thread lead article.
Rhoid, do you disagree with the facts related in the article? Do you dislike the author? Is there some data displayed that impacts you personally? Does your pink card require you to react in an inane manner whenever the Communist Party is Dissed? Or perhaps you are just a frustrated anarchist that lacks a couple of the glandular requirements that all real anarchists must own.
I really am curious about your reactions to certain news sources. I feel bad for you. Pravda no longer is publishing for useful idiots.

The Commies are coming!
The Commies are coming!

Where's McCarthy when you need him?

That's non sequitur Dan S. Edgar Bergen is missing too.

I think the Commie scare has come and gone.

The faults of communism/socialism have been documented for everyone to see, so nations aren't exactly lining up to be socialists and communists. In fact, socialist countriess are leaning more and more toward capitalism.

Worrying about Commies is so 1960's.

cold war-another way of saying $30,000 debt per man woman and child in this country.....and if its up to the republicans it will be $60,000 per by the time bush gets done with this country.....

sard is starting to remind me of one of those japanese soldiers in the south pacific that still thinks he is fighting WW2........its over sard-.....both sides went bankrupt over the cold war although it took us longer to go bankrupt from it....

If everybody on the planet is bankrupt, what is the point ?

Sard,

Dan's got ya' on this one. I'm almost surprised that you post the right wing's counterpart drivel about what the left wing is up to. When you post original thought, you don't seem so rabid, but your cut and pastes from far right wing whack jobs really undermine your image. Not that I expect you to care a whit. But what thinking person on the planet even has a brain wave to waste on the communists? It's a century-old movement that has clearly self-fulfilled its inevitible collapse.

The far left commie message was borderline irrelevant in the late 1960s (yeah, I was there giving it all the thoughtful consideration I could stand), and it hasn't gained any in the subsequent decades.

I realize Spokane isn't the cultural nor intellectual mecca of the Pacific northwest, but I didn't think you were actually this hard up. You have my condolences.

Sincerely,

all of the largest centrally planned economies today are multi-national corporations.......
central planning works much better in business than in govt.....hence one of the reasons that cuba has moved away from communism and has embraced socialism.......

but i gotta say that liberalism is totally opposite of communism....... why the constant attempt to attach communism to liberalism? it makes no sense...... liberalism built this country and so far all the conservatives have been able to do is tear the country apart......isnt that a more pressing topic than trying to reach back 30 years into history and re-hash something that was never ever the slightest threat???????

Lord, it's kinda like a player piano. Somebody starts pushing the pedals and pretty soon everyone wants to push the pedals. That communism is a failed 'ism is not arguable. Except when the pearl in the geoduck is Fidel. Then it's altogether another matter. lol. Our cold war past is/was with the major communist ideologies that were on the scene. Many of the frustrated fellow travelers have had to find a new oracle for their adulation. The masters of Russia and China, no matter what they were called in the past are desirous of Empire. And they will use Vladimir's useful idiots as the opportunity presents itself. In my opinion the wackos that were raising hell in the streets as depicted by the article are a danger to our country.
Yes, our freedoms are about just that conduct in the streets. However, I don't have to admire the screwballs.
Save the insincere condolences Salmo g. Spokane is at least 10 years behind the coast in most matters. Thank goodness.
You do have all that saltchuck to play in. That's to be envied.

well since fidel isnt a communist- it is another matter....cuba is socialist, people in cuba are free to start their own business and it is very common to do so..... maybe you just dont understand the difference..

of course its one thing to read a book about something....and another thing to experience it. your like a guy that has read a book on how to build planes that thinks he knows more than the boeing engineers....

point is that communism is only a topic to you geriatrics....the rest of us understand that it isnt a threat to america and its a waste of time to try and demonize something that has no power...

Nice post Lupo. You must mean socialist as in National Socialist. I grant the 'ism is anti-communist, based on Europe in the late 1930s.
I don't know anything about aircraft design. Lol
My time in the Boeing Design and Engineering group in Renton is not applicable since I only worked on a few aircraft prototypes. Boeing's SST, The C5, the 737, 747 and the various mutants that were modified for Military contract purposed.
You wanna talk politics. The aircraft business is seriously infected. Boeings expertise at that time was mainly big haulers not hypersonic airframes. Lockheed, the serious hypersonic folks, were awarded the C5 contract and essentially built the Boeing design. The SST, which should have been Lockheeds baby, was dropped after the prospect was considered unprofitable. The French went ahead for the sake of national ego and built an SST. It too was not profitable and thus faced extinction. The market is money driven. Eh?
I hope you get to experience the realm of Geriatrics Lupo. Just don't fall off a tall roof.
BTW did you ever hear of the Dynasoar project? It was Boeing's design for the viable flyable rentry vehicle. North American Rockwell won that award, never did hear the why's and wherefore's of that decision.

ps, you're right Lupo, Communism has no clout. Those street demonstrators prove that. LOL

Sard,

Sorry about my cyber-communications failure. My condolences are completely sincere, cuz I can't fathom any reasonably intelligent conservative waving that anachronistic commie fear flag as you did with your cut and paste. One of the problems inherent in C&P is that a reader like me can only assume you bothered to C&P becuz you believe it exactly as written. Otherwise I expect you would express yourself in your own words rather than someone else's. It's not so much that original composition is original thought, but that by expressing an idea yourself gives you ownership of the idea, regardless of where it originated.

Using the Cliff notes to inform your own opinion is acceptable, but copying them still results in an F at most schools.

The right of the protesters to have their demonstration is exactly what America is about. A few of the whackos that abound are to be feared. Most need merely be tolerated. These days I have a greater fear of the far right variety than any of the impotent far left types.

I apologize for my low blow at Spokane. There are many nice places around there.

Sincerely,

Salmo g.

My bad. I see an interesting article and post the link. No requirement to go there posted. However, just cause I post the link doesn't mean I am in lock step with the accredited author of the material or the publisher for that matter. I usually think the material is of interest and not just a scary booo to the reader.
I wonder at your apparent awe of things academic. Academia is at least as wacky in some of it's behaviour as any group of street hellions. I am one of those classic underachievers. It took several years for me to realize that getting A s in subjects that are detested or boring is much more important than getting A s in the fun subjects. The fun subject grades come easy. In my case the sciences.
The good old apolitical days.
Cliff notes, that is what I missed out on, I never used Cliff notes. No wonder I spent so much time getting eye strain.
Apology accepted.

Sard,

If you knew me, I think you'd understand that my apparent awe is just another way of poking fun. I spent enough time in Academia (slow learner, plus multiple drop outs and ins) to see plenty of the wacky side. They weren't apolitical times, however. Never used Cliff Notes either. I really was that impoverished as a student.

Politics was the farthest thing from my mind. If it didn't emit female pheromones I didn't notice it. I was in the USNR in those days and between trying to figure out how to maximize my also pitiful income and attempts at enlarging the gene pool I was much too busy for politics.
