I've discovered Netjets 10 year plan!

[glasspilot]

And yet more Americans TRUST the Daily Show host Jon Stewart than any other...weird.

Look, I didn't say I GET my news from Jon Stewart. In fact, his show wouldn't work if you did. The shows only funny if you're already familiar with what he's talking about. Yes, he is a comedian. Thank you for pointing that out.

 

[rajflyboy]

And yet you posted it. You posted the far right rantings of a lunatic (most would say) from a small, little independent website with an agenda and offered that as an "education".

Just watched last nights "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart". It's a little more main stream and after all, Jon Stewart has in fact been voted Most Trusted Newscaster (Source).

Here is a link to the show. Just watch the first segment and then come back and tell me if you agree with the GOP stance on how to run this country. Namely, should we consider taxing more or not. I don't want to sway you, just watch the video and tell me what you think. It's one of his better pieces if you ask me.

I thought about starting a new thread for this but since it got brought up and nobody really has a "10 year plan" anyway I posted it.

Enough with crazy far right or far left arguments. The county is going to hell and I blame the right. I don't support able bodied folks living off the efforts of the rest of us, but the facts show that isn't the main problem.

Anyway, here are those links again:

God Help a left winger in the cockpit

I think you would be suprised by how many are left wingers are in the cockpit. The difference is we don't wear our religion or politics on our sleeve. We also stay quiet when a righty is around.

As someone already pointed out. It's truly scary that John Stewart is the most trusted for news and he is a comedian. That said, I DVR every episode because it's #$%@ing funny as hell.

What I especially love are all the right wing, pro-union guys out there.

Reminds me of Sam Kinison's bit about RADD (Rockers Against Drunk Driving). He likened it to "Christians Against Christ". Seems to me any Union Supporter out there would lean left, and yet it is what it is. Go figure.



Oh, forgot to add this: For anyone seeking more "education" from the fringe check out this gem:

ChemTrail Education...son.


Happy reading.

Blaming Workers for the Mafia and Communist infiltration of our Unions is like blaming the Rape victim instead of the Rapist....

 

[glasspilot]

Oh, rape victims VOTE IN their rapist? Is that your point?

Catastrophic failure of imagination: you may count it alongside your ludicrous admonishment of worker representation.

The reason you "love" it is because you fail to understand the mechanics of worker representation within the confines of a free market. The fundamental concept of unionization is nonpolitical, but the opposition and restriction of such activity is.

Business parties entering into compensation contracts fundamentally cannot have a specific political alignment, anymore than the practice of entering into a credit-card agreement with Amex makes you leftist.

It is a fantastic delusion indeed to assign a political alignment to a business practice, fabricated to further distance a detractor at the expense of legitimate argument.

While it is true that many union organizations contribute to leftist practices, many individuals (like yourself) have convinced yourselves that the very concept of unionization is a leftist enterprise fundamentally, when nothing could be further from the truth.

Unions are tools for the protection/mediation of compensation with an employee population, nothing more. Some organizations are good, others bad.

That said...

Your problem is that you are under the tragic misapprehension that employees have no cause to organize and bargain for compensation and working conditions, which as it splendidly turns out, is a very leftist position to take (post-revolution, of course).

Small wonder that you find right-wing, free-market attitudes undesirable, eh?

Really? That's your argument? Okay, whatever. Could you say that again in language I could understand?

"Political alignment to a business practice, fabricated to further a distance a detractor at the expense..."


Seriously Harvard. Just using the biggest words you know and stringing them together doesn't make you smart. In fact, I think you're a dumb guy with a thesaurus.

Okay, so we agree. Nice. Stop speaking like a queer.

And just to show I'm not cherry picking items to comment on, here is the whole thing. View it for all it's glorious craziness. Someone needs a therapist, and I'm looking at you Paradoxus.

Yup, what Glass said. Quite possibly the dumbest post I've ever seen.

No one can say anything you can understand.

The liberal way of life. When you don't have facts to argue an issue >> start calling someone names

This is exactly why I don't discuss politics in the cockpit or in general..... Like I said ...far too many people believe everything they read from any source and take it as the gospel....

I had a coworker recently tell me as a matter of fact, that Obama wasn't born in the USA...His source, Fox News and Donald Trump...The first is a broadcast that is severely against anything Democrat, the other is well...Donald Trump... It's always important to consider the source...

Where is the actual proof that he is an American Citizen? and i don't mean the phony birth certificate that someone made for him

He is The President of the United States.....I'm pretty sure someone somewhere would have noticed if he wasn't a natural born citizen. Say the FBI or CIA..

You did take some form of government class in elementary school right? Besides being 35, it is one of the only other requirements....

I'm pretty sure they do background checks on Presidents.... You may have passed your 10 year background, but I'd bet the background check on a President is much more thorough..But keep believing everything you see and read.... Donald Trump has always been right.....

You are a lot more optimistic about our government than I am.

 

[glasspilot]

How would anybody prove citizenship if birth certificates are to be discounted due to the possibility they are forged? Turns out an archived birth announcement from the local paper isn't good enough either.

So I ask, how do we know anybody is a citizen that we didn't actually see shoot out the actual birth canal while inside the actual boarders of this Country?

Actually, there is no requirement for any government agency to verify the eligibility of a President. The Constitution requires one to be a natural born Citizen ... but nowhere requires anyone to check the evidence.

Barack Obama was born a Dual-Citizen ... He was born a Kenyan citizen (or British subject)... because of his father's citizenship. Is a dual citizen a natural born Citizen? I say no. The requirement to be a natural born citizen is for the purpose of not have split allegiance. Obviously a dual citizen by definition has split allegiance.

The fact still remains that he was born a US citizen.. and by government law has every right to run and be elected president....

As far as what the government may or may not check in one's background.... You're really reaching there if you really think a check of the guys citizenship wasn't done at some point in this guys political career. I can find out what my neighbor bought his house for, can look at the legal records of anyone in the US, I'm pretty sure the US government is able to figure out where B.O. was born.

Lastly, unless you, or anyone on this board, is not just a pilot but also member of a government entity that checks into citizenship or background checks. I'd have to call BS on the whole arguement.

Obama could provide 8mm film stock of his birth, with his umbilical cord resting on the Honolulu Star Bulletin for 8/4/61, and the birthers would still claim it's faked. There's no reasoning with these people.
