Why do you feel it necessary to bold all of your posts?
Makes you look pretentious at best.
Many of us won't read self-important posters, they seem ridiculous.

why do u feel it necessary to get personal with every muf$#cka on here?....i mean i haven't seen a post from you that you didn't smart off to someone about thier opinion or the way they write things..on top of that you never have any knowledge to back up your opinion and make for a good debate...i think they have other sites you can go to if u like causing arguments for the sake of argument....such a waist of typing when i read your posts...have you ever read the rules on here about personal attacks and staying on topic?...what about the golden rule in life....do unto others as you would have them do to you?....i hope you aren't older than 30 because that is sad if you are just arguing and putting people down all the time and not focusing on the topic...we all need to give what we know as being true and then sort it all out in debate to make progress...i am not always right and i do learn from some things on here that im opposed to sometimes....but we all need to be more productive because insulting others and creating arguements are for myspace and other teen sites .....this is for debate and learning

I would like to thank "Financial Skinny" for that wonderful piece on terrorism. It was right up there with their some of their other works like:
  • "Memo to the G.O.P: Sarah Palin is the Future"
  • "Buy a Gun Before it's too Late"
  • "Marxist, Marxist, Marxist"

It was wrong for liberals to do that to Bush after 9/11 and it's wrong to do it with Obama. Find out what went wrong, fix the problem, and don't make the same mistake.
certainly the news is trying to take both sides of the story, since some media sources say he was on a "no fly" list and some that he wasn't. however, the fact is that his own father reported him as a problem and if he wasn't on a list HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN.

it is ridiculous that americans have to be incredibly inconvenienced when they fly every single time and that this guy got on a plane at all. the government cannot just keep targeting american businesspeople and vacationers as possible "suspects".

they actually need to keep the terrorists off the planes!

Once again the nearsighted politicians treat the symptom instead of the cause. The reason we have terrorists is because we occupy Holy Lands, we bomb innocent civilians, and our one-sided support of Israel.

We need to leave the Middle East and quit being the policemen of the world. It is not our fight and all we do is throw fuel on the fire. We need our troops home protecting our borders, not fighting and dying for Oil companies.

So true, there's no difference between the whack jobs calling their attacks jihad and the whack jobs calling the Iraq invasion a task from God.

A Dutch newspaper today reports that the material was put in a condom or something looking very much alike....

Under Obama I don't feel so safe anymore...Navy seals are charged for given a bloody nose to a terrorist...so who wants to go after terrorist and risk jail time...maybe some passengers on a plane still dare to do something, that military people soon don't want to do anymore.....
