		<description><![CDATA[Back in the 80s, there was a somewhat similar incident in NJ from a Rep. governor, Jim Florio, the boxer.  He promised taxpayers the world and as soon as he took office he screwed everybody starting with a raise in sales taxes.  The uproar was such that he had to rescind it.  I still can&#039;t understand how/why he wasn&#039;t impeach as that is what the people were calling for.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Back in the 80s, there was a somewhat similar incident in NJ from a Rep. governor, Jim Florio, the boxer.  He promised taxpayers the world and as soon as he took office he screwed everybody starting with a raise in sales taxes.  The uproar was such that he had to rescind it.  I still can&#8217;t understand how/why he wasn&#8217;t impeach as that is what the people were calling for.  This was early on so he devoted the reminder of the 4 years trying to clean that up and brainwashing people into forgetting that little episode.  Come election time, he was voted out with a vengeance.  I was impressed to see that people remembered.  Hopefully, the same will happen in WI.  Better yet, recall the bastard!

Now if Bernie, wanted to commit suicide instead of facing forever in jail, he would only have to tell the whole truth about who has got the government in their hip pocket and any further ideas they plan for the country.
He would gone within a week.  I don´t think Bernie has that type of courage. I might be wrong.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the absurdities of this issue is that marriage isn&#039;t under attack (at least not by the gays), therefore it doesn&#039;t need to be defended. What the Holy Moral Rollers want is to keep marriage exclusively their property. They want to be the arbiters of who can and who cannot get married. In that their position is driven by their religious convictions there is a prima facie case that what they actually are doing is projecting their religious values (oxymoronic though that might be) onto everyone else, in clear violation of the First Amendment. It&#039;s the homosexuals who actually want to defend the institution; it is their access to a fundamental human right which is clearly being violated. I see no difference whatsoever between this issue and the fight for basic civil rights in the South in the 50s and 60s. Come to think of it, it is the same mindset that opposed the enfranchisement of African-Americans then that opposes the enfranchisement of homosexuals today.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Actually the Pine Bark beetles there are not imported, they&#039;re native.Dendroctonus ponderosae is the usual suspect. Mountain Pine Beetle.
And some Cedars may be victims of the Japanese Cedar Longhorn Beetle, first detected in North America in 1927, Vancouver, BC. First detected in the USA in the 50&#039;s in Washington state. These beetles like  Juniper and Cypress,  and some Cedars.
Most of the research surrounding Cedar has to do with drought, but a few beetles have had an impact.

Edit: Cedars and lack of water is an issue that has been studied in the Northwest for over a decade. What one my perceive as the beginning of a drought is really something that has been going on for quite a while. 
And regard the post from Commentista. Pine Bark Beetles are not only native, but have evolved for each specie. The reason they&#039;re having such a huge impact is drought and warmer winters that allow for more larvae to survive.]]></description>

The top 10% own 80% of all the resources, leaving the other 90% fighting over 20% of the resources. .. and many multi-billion dollar profit corporations are paying nothing in taxes to the United States (yet, those CEOs get the benefits of those profits/revenues, like flying around the planet on private jets.. or like one company near where I live, a &quot;party train&quot; that runs around the country -- paid for by tax loopholes that made it &quot;better&quot; to buy a party train for the company than pay taxes to support the community the company functions in).

And the reason someone like Gates gets away with not paying much in taxes despite being a billionaire is the same reason they became that rich in the first place.. RIGGED GAME.

		<description><![CDATA[I have had (and still do) the anger you are spewing....but why are you spewing it at me?
Obama IS a blue dog....like it or not.

I liked Howard Dean way back before the MSM destroyed him. and I still do.
There are rare honest people in politics. He is one of them.
Back before social media, I bored every single person on my email list, with info about the criminal activities that Bush Co took part in. I probably was one of his first vocal critics, But why try to convince you, since you have your mind made up about me.

I don&#039;t deny that there are many in this country that are racist. Of course there are. What I get upset about is that when I, and others like me, who are very unhappy with Obama (who I BTW voted for and was thrilled to see win) take issue with his policies, I am accused of beiing racist. 

I sometimes think you and those like you are the real GOP trolls, trying to divide us on the left by calling us racist if we dare criticize Obama.

		<description><![CDATA[People appear to be supportive of unions, those who have heard of them and have the sense to make up their mind about them, that is, the problem is the over 40 percent who haven&#039;t heard of them or can&#039;t say or perhaps don&#039;t want to say.

Majority in Poll Back Employees in Public Sector Unions

“[A] majority of Americans say they oppose efforts to weaken the collective bargaining rights of public employee unions and are also against cutting the pay or benefits of public workers to reduce state budget deficits, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll.

“Labor unions are not exactly popular, though: A third of those surveyed viewed them favorably, a quarter viewed them unfavorably, and the rest said they were either undecided or had not heard enough about them.”

Over and over again we see the same thing, the 25% of the Bush supporters who against anything that helps the people, and the nearly 45% who appear to be functionally illiterate: they don’t know they get their social security from the government; they evidently can’t or won’t read and they appear to be unable to learn or make the simplest decisions regarding how they feel or what they believe in.  I think it is these people who are really the problem, because so man of them don’t vote.

		<description><![CDATA[DOMA is unconsitutional, no doubt about that, but that&#039;s ultimately for the courts to decide because DOMA was enacted by Congress and signed by a president. There is a (slight) difference between voiding a law and simply not defending, but it is still a bit troubling. And Bush-like, but in a good way. (Still Bush-like, though.)

And Boehner? It&#039;s awesome that you&#039;ve discovered that thing called &quot;the rule of law&quot;, really it is. And it&#039;s very sweet how upset you are that Obama isn&#039;t going to bat for this homophobic and unconstitutional legislation.

Now go defend the legislation that was passed overwhelmingly by Congress, at the urging of Saint Reagan, and has been ignore by Bush &amp; Obama, the United Nations Convention Against Torture. Fulfill our treaty obligations and start an investigation.
Do that, and I&#039;ll vote Republican for life.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s not the cops fault when it comes to corruption. It&#039;s the moralistic laws that create the problems. I&#039;m old enough to remember when cops were there to protect and serve. The laws against consensual crimes and banned substances always create corruption but when Nixon ratcheted up the war on people in 1971 crap really hit the old rotary oscillator. Stealing private property has become the normal operating procedure. In fact a lot of the departments actually put it in their budgets as a source of revenue. We don&#039;t have a clue how deep this goes but safe to say our lawmaker$ are also in on the &quot;scam&quot;.  We need to end this drug war before it ends us.  copssaylegalizedrugs.com

		<description><![CDATA[I can believe that the use of Conspiracy Theories is the American people&#039;s way of dealing with the fact that
1) our government is too distant
2) it wants to keep us from observing them
3) it has become arrogant
4) it does not see itself as the public servant
5) it tells us we have no power to demand better

Well, let them look to Wisconsin, then.

		<description><![CDATA[History never lies.

How quickly America was willing to forget that Arianna was a hardcore right-wing conservative fundraising activist a decade or two ago.

How willing everyone is to believe that hardcore rightwingers who like media attention aren&#039;t willing to exploit political beliefs in order to profit, whether consciously or not.

Huffington Post is drival and celebrity worship.  For years they tricked people into giving them free content by playing to their beliefs, and then they sold out to advertising completely.  How many people could look at full page ads, pop-ups, links, adbars, sidebars, and dozens of porn news stories, and actually think there was some integrity involved?

These days, there&#039;s a sucker born every second.  And everyone &quot;journalist&quot; who gave HP their work for free even once should retract their statement.  They ignorantly chose to ignore the signs that they were being exploited, and begging for money now is just sad.  You killed journalism, not Arianna.  She just convinced you to do it for free.]]></description>

Theory: a collection of thinking based upon the facts as known.
Conspiracy: When more than one person plan to do something, especially, a crime.

People that ignore Conspiracy Theories are really ignoring the facts!

My conspiracy theory is that she got the $315 million for her reporting that she does not believe them.
