Loading ...Anybody else want to talk about Rules and V Bops ?
….Talk to the Manager….
Come on TQ….a Real Man doesnt Hit and Run….get back in here !
Fully………………….LOL……..
I sent it about an hour and a half, ago……………must have went horse and buggy, and must have gotten stopped at the border.
PMF…good I could use a little mail about now
….not received yet…
FGC………..I must have missed that vote……
Make it 2 votes for having a copy. Also, VK has (at least had) copies of all of the notes from the Constitutional Conventions listed on her site. I read them all, but don’t know if I saved a copy. With that said, so much has changed through the years in terms of interpretations of words, phrases, and dialogue………that it takes some interpretation to relate those writings to today.
TQ…PS….you must have missed that Poll on who owns a copy of the “Federalist Papers”…here is a recap
1 vote…..Yes
50 votes ….No
72 votes ….what the hell is the Federalist Papers ? (My vote )
87 votes….I’d rather watch GBV
TQ…You are Talking to Me !…and I dont like what you are implying
……Your Self Ritcheous Pompas Attitude is duly noted….as it has been for years !
…..Who appointed you Rules of Order Manager of Goldtent…?
……That last post is as Ridiculous a post as I have seen from anyone ever…and that is saying something…
…..I guess you were in the garden and missed it when a few months ago a similar incident provoked one of our Fearless Leaders…Wanka…who I assume you respect more than I….
….He posted in Absolute Clarity …that There would Be No More Posts Tolerated on the Jew and Middle East Topic…and that any offenders would be Demoted…(Posting Priveleges Denied)
….This was reiterated by Floridagold shortly thereafter…
….The Admin of Goldtent is Unanimous in this….It was not a rash decision…Much discussion preceded it….So we do have a few rules here….Kitcoblows was warned as were all posters that continuation of the Line of Discussion would result in banishment…but he persisted..and so was removed….
…..You are a Pompous Asp….showing up here every 3 to 6 months spewing your BS….
….GET OFF YOUR HIGH AND MIGHTY HORSE ALREADY..
…when we first met at A Taste of Freedom Inn….I welcomed you as a comrade….
….But Now after seeing your Self Agrandizing Condescending Holier than Thou Moronic Drivel far to many times….I withdraw that welcome
….Good nite Walking Eagle…

I liked your posts today. Still waiting for a poll to see how many have read or own a copy of The Federalist Papers. It has been a while since I read it. I was fortunate to have read some of the French Philosophes of the 1600s and 1700s who developed the idea that you so clearly presented: that God created us and God gave us rights that no unjust government has a right to take away. They were studied and understood by the Founding Fathers. Where is such an educated group today?
The fluff that often passes for thoughtful analysis of current issues here makes me cringe. I had hoped that it would disappear and that writing here would demonstrate simple basics like clarity, cohesiveness and coherence. I see it far too rarely.
A good example is the simple acceptance of tyrannical V-bopping of posters from time to time. A recent V-bop occurred and I did not see any attempt at due process. Was there a graduated set of limits presented by which to measure the posts in question? Was an attempt made to place the discussion onto an academic plane? Did anyone mention any reference to any Rules of Order? The discussion quickly degenerated into a food fight due to the lack of a coherent policy.
The acceptance of the tyranny of the V-bopper here is a sad testimony to the state of thinking about liberty and our rights to due process.
If Bill H Says watch this…then Damn…I’m gonna watch this !
Bill H:
Please watch

To all; this is a must watch! As I have said for several years now, we are living amongst “systemic fraud”! This court case in Milan is merely the first leak in a dam holding back $100’s of Trillions of fraudulent, upside down and in many cases worthless derivatives. An old friend of mine used to say ” before this is all over, Wall Street will be sued for and owe in damages far more than their collective net worth’s”. I believe he was 100% correct and this is only the beginning of 1,000’s of lawsuits both civil and criminal that will take Wall Street to the executioner. In my opinion it is about time for they surely have it coming to them for what they’ve done to Main St.. Regards, Bill H….

Thanks for the several responses since I stirred up the pot at 15:19 today with the
link about forest kill in western North America and the 15:30 postcript about how loss of tree cover was helping airborne sensors to now see surface geological expression where it was formerly hidden under cover of the tree canopy. My only responses to your responses are as follows.
kentucky 15:47 and 15:57 wants me to take a hike with old lurker. I dont know anything about old lurker so he isnt on my list of someone who I have an urge to hike with. I already have loved ones with whom I love to hike.
tothemoon (18:48) and and Samb (16:07) gave the most thought-provoking comments that were based on the assumption that I was a proponent of the idea that the globe is facing man-made climate warming. That assumption is not true. I have made clear in several postings that I have no evidence that global warming is human-caused, but I do have an open mind to accept that idea sometime in the future if it is proven that human causes are the reason for already documented global warming. The only reason that I engage in the subject of global warming is to challenge the view of those who deny there is any global warming. Thats why I posted the article at 15:19 using , instead of examples from the subarctic and arctic about which I have posted before, an article from the western U.S. which I thought some Goldtenters might relate to more readily than the subarctic region evidence of global warming.
Samb (16:07) asked the very appropriate question, Now what would you do about it, Equiz? In my opinion, I dont think there is a darn thing we can do about global warming because it is a natural process beyond our control.. Actually, maybe there is one thing we can do. We can adapt to it. And I think we will, just as mankind has adapted to many natural environmental changes over many centuries. In this context, I congratulate treefrog for his realistic viewpoint expressed at 17:57.
Samb @ 16:36, I have never posted anything to imply that I thought global warming was not potentially beneficial. I could give quite a few examples where global warming is now showing beneficial effects.
End of my responses to responses. My only goal in this is to post items that substantiate that there is measurable global warming in parts of North America, in some regions more strongly evident than in others. If I have any argument it is with those who profess that there is no global warming in this geological era in North America. I do not enter the useless and unnecessary argument about whether this global warming is human-caused. Here’s to better understanding. Equiz.
New political party
*New Political Party.**Not Democrat, Not Republican, Not Independent.*
*It’s called the “*ISSED OFF PARTY” (or POP).*
*This party is dedicated to vote every incumbent out of office in the next elections.*
*If you’re Democrat, vote Democrat. Just don’t vote for the incumbent.*
*If you’re Republican, vote Republican. Just don’t vote for the incumbent.*
*We need to send a message to all politicians, that we’re tired of their B.S.*
*If the country votes out all the incumbents, the new incoming politicians will get the message..*
*It’s pretty simple. Nobody needs to change parties and lets face it, there’s plenty of blame to spread around.*
*A few good politicians will lose their job but they probably have better retirement and insurance then 95% of the American public.*
*You’ve had to struggle for the last 5 years. Some of you have lost your job and may be working in some other sector just to feed your family.*
*I guarantee you, none of them will suffer like this country has.*
*If you like whats going on and think this is a bad idea, delete this.*
*But if you’re fed up and think this is a good idea, then pass this E-mail on.*
*If you really think this has legs, then a website and a blog could help get the word out.*
*To All 535 voting members of the Legislature; it is now official you are ALL corrupt morons:*
*a.. The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.*
*b.. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.*
*c.. Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke.*
*d.. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to “the poor” and they only want more.*
*e.. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke.*
*f.. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.*
*g.. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.*
h. USPS - Postal Service - BROKE
i. Amtrack - BROKE
*You have FAILED in every “government service” you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars.*
*AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A
GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM? *
Silverboom… looks like your post on America and Heralthcare was a Tent Hit
Linked it under Analysis Paradise…
…Nice Rant
just found this on healthcare
you no longer have a private bank account.
from
• The government will have real-time access to an individual’s bank account and will have the authority to make electronic fund transfers from those accounts (pg 58 and 59)”
all the more reason to own physical in your possession!!!!!

Like I originally posted, the lack of clear, logical thinking
by some in this forum make me want to crawl in a cave and die. The same claptrap trotted out by wards of the state have no purchase here. Wasted words if you cannot even grasp the core principles and implications. Watering them down with broken thinking does not render them of less value - if you want to know the correct meaning of what the founding fathers meant, go read the federalist papers. Trying to put sense into a liberal mind is akin to pushing rope up a hill. Useless waste of time and energy.

My old man can’t even pass wind for that cheap!
Definitely carving out a bottom. UNG will be a huge winner when the USD crashes back to earth. 
EU Budgets are to be saved or sanitized by …
the man made climate lie. All forms of fossil energy - including electricity? - will be additionally taxed by a CO2 emission tax, doubling after one year. This proposal could bring some 2 bn €’s for Austria p.a. alone. Thanks to a political swindle back in the era of chancellor Kreisky, we don’t have nuclear power - one thing they can’t tax.
No new taxes to pay for the bailouts of banks - except also potentially putting a surcharge to them, which they’ll find a way to roll over to their clients.
Not a snowball’s chance in hell to curb some gov. spending as promised, as we’re just on the verge to grant a minimum survival paycheck of about 680 €’s for everyone not willing to work; Some 5% of our population of 8 Million may be the beneficiaries - what a waste!
I’m stunned at this kind of frivolity, some may see as the greatest achievement of social market economy, which in itself is an oxymoron of - what do my grandkids say - hyper-cool proportions.
Read my lips … as the classical overture to rob Peter to pay Paul - only this time even Peter will feel the pinch.
Something will have to give - and potentially sooner then later - it will be the fraudulent monetary system spanning the globe since Bretton Woods. frr
