Bloomberg Study?

PowerStroker, this Bloomberg you speak of wouldn't happen to have any ties to that Democrat trash who currently is Mayor of NYC would it? IIRC the people of NY are fed up with Democrats.

Never mind that Bloomberg got on national TV on New Years eve drooling over Lady Gaga. I bet it must suck to be so rich and yet still not get any action.

Nasty if you ask me. Stoma and Bloomberg seem to have one thing in common, neither one can seem to "get it up".

Yes he was! And everyone knows there is NOTHING worse than a turn-coat.

It shows how low he will go to make a buck.

I mean did you even see the New Years eve broadcast where he come off as a perverted old man drooling and foaming at the mouth? Some of the things he said were a little extreme! Like his old wrinkly ass would ever have a chance of pleasing Gaga! All of that while wearing a sweater with an American flag! What a chump!

He is old and spent. He needs to be discarded back to the general population as he is no longer fit for the job.

I don't know about the market, what with all the Government propping up...

But in NYC Soda business will be BOOMING as people have to spend TWICE to THREE times as much to get more than 16oz of Soda!

What a BULLSHIT law that could have only been cooked up by a jackass!

Tuesday the new law takes effect, but just like Obamacare, they are not going to start issuing fines until a while after... June I think it is... Until that time the NYC Nazi police will just issue warnings.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/03/10/nyc-businesses-brace-for-new-soda-size-rule/?test=latestnews

I think the people who passed this law should be jailed and FORCED to re-imburse the business that had to jump thru these unconstiutional laws when this reaches the high court. Here we a struggling economy and many business will have to order new supplies such as glasses and menus.

Fuck NYC! Life is better in Detroit!

Yes, I must give credit where credit is due; I only hope it can maintain this momentum.

HOWEVER, often times a very large spike is followed by a sharp decline (historically speaking). That said, Obama just has to ensure the market does not also swing to an all time low under his watch.

I still have my concerns with regards to the quantitative easing and government propping up of the market. I just hope the Europeans are not colluding in dumping a bunch of money in our market only to pull it all out and leave us in a bad situation.

The term "Too good to be true" kind of lingers in the back of my mind, but it's more than worth it to have a strong market once again.

So let's all hope this momentum can be kept up! +1 for Obama and his Democrats.

My recent response was more or less to call out what I feel is a total violation of NY'ers rights to choose when it comes to the size of their sodas. Do you feel NY's new size limits on drinks is constitutional?

I'm not well informed on that issue. I will say generally that a limit on the size of soda does seem to be a bit of a government overreach. My prefered way to deal with things that cause health problems that taxpayers end up paying for, is to tax the offending activity enough to cover the governments costs. Much like I feel the bank bailouts should be paid for by levying a tax on risky stock transactions.

Is there a big hooker epidemic in MN or something?

Or are you suggesting Bloomberg may have a problem with hookers?

You (as a Democrat) support

Legalizing drugs

Prositiution

Gun Controll

Gay marrigaes

????

Wow...

You know.. The old saying "Why buy the cow when you get the milk for free" only applies to guys getting pussy WITHOUT having to pay for it. You might want to look into buying the cow before you latch onto a diseased utter one of these days.

Not all drugs, just Mary Jane, and it would still be illegal to operate a vehicle while under its influence. I'm not necessarily in favor of legalizing prostitution, though de-criminalizing it may have merit. Gun regulations and Gay marriages are fine though.

But...But...

Isn't Mary Jane the lady who takes you across the gateway? At least as far as kids and first time users are concerned?

Isn't de-criminalizing something pretty much the same thing as making it legal? aka it's not worth the Police time because there is no $$$ in it?

Gun regulations huh? That's pretty vague... Don't we currently have a boat load of laws now?

Gay Marriage? PFT... I'll flat out reject ANY arguments you have for this on the fact that it's not natural and does nothing to promote society, meaning if everyone was gay the human race would go the way of the dinosaur. The disrespect it would cast on traditional marriages would not be worth the satisfaction a few homo's would get by being able to marry.

More people die from Alcohol than Pot, can you even find one report of a person dying from pot?

de-criminalizing doesn't mean the government endorses it, it just means they have chosen to prosecute other things with their limited resources.

We need universal backround checks for firearms, and an assault weapons ban.

Homosexuality IS natural, it's just less common. There have been many contributions to society from gay people. The world is way over-populated as it is for the limited resources that we have... Why you place reproduction so high on your criteria for what makes a legitimate couple is beyond me, I'm a straight man with a vasectomy, so I'll never have any kids, does that make me less of a person?

Your term "traditional marriage" is vague. Could you elaborate? The bible lists these 8 types of marriage, so are all of these "traditional"?

The standard nuclear family: Genesis 2:24
Polygynous marriage:Genesis 4:19
Levirate Marriage: Genesis 38:6-10
A man, a woman and her property -- a female slave: As described in Genesis 16
A man, one or more wives, and some concubines: Genesis 21:10
A male and female slave: Exodus 21:4
A male soldier and a female prisoner of war: Numbers 31:1-18
A male rapist and his victim: Deuteronomy 22:28-29

Has your marriage ever been affected negitavely by the gay couple living down the street?

Homosexuality is natural, bigotry is a lifestyle choice. I suggest you choose better.

More people die from smoking than alcohol PowerStroker, It's a fact! Lung cancer is not exclusive to just tobacco. I am not saying alcohol is not lethal because it most certainly can be. Usually these deaths you speak of are automotive related deaths where someone has drank too much and drove. People that smoke pot are dying a little bit every day just like people who drink every day. If pot were legalized today there would be lots of people that just like alcohol will think it's okay to smoke every day and after awhile you will have more and more cases of people dying just like alcohol. I certainly think it should be someones own choice to choose what they want to do, even if it means they are killing themselves but I don't feel it's right to suggest that Pot is safe or GOOD for you. Just like alcohol people who smoke pot get into car accidents, in fact just the other day right in front of my house some pot head rear ended someone. I know he was a pot head by the amount of time he spent in his vehicle hiding shit, and then of course the dead give away, he rolled down his windows prior to getting out of the vehicle. Of course unless the cop smells the pot, or see's it that accident will never even mention Pot or the fact the kid was stoned and could not react in time to stop. So don't bullshit yourself PowerStroker. And not once did you address the "gateway" factor of Pot, esp. with the young. As a tobacco smoker I can tell you it's hard to quit, and I know it's bad for me.

de-criminalizing doesn't mean the government endorses it, it just means they have chosen to prosecute other things with their limited resources.

Maybe I can get on-board with de-criminalizing Pot. If only because often times the Police and Courts go overboard in the prosecution of such crimes as simple possession.

We need universal backround checks for firearms, and an assault weapons ban.

We already have background checks for firearms and an assault weapons ban is a jackass talking point with the sole intention of trying to scare the public into giving up more of their rights! Let's take the AR-15 for example, that is a pussy rifle that pretty much shoots high powered .22 rounds. Now look at a .308 rifle, that gun will go thru a person and three houses behind him. Same goes with .50 cal guns and shot-guns. It's the same thing. Where does it stop PowerStroker? Today the AR's tomorrow hand guns and next week rifles. Look how many weapons have sold as a result of this gun-control talk! Look how many people die in accidental car deaths both young and old, should be ban cars too?


Homosexuality IS natural, it's just less common. There have been many contributions to society from gay people.

Homosexuality IS NOT natural PowerStroker. If two good friends of the same sex want to live together and fuck each other in the ass or strap on cocks that is their business and I am not saying it should be banned. I am only saying that Marriage should be ONLY between a man and a woman out of respect, and after all it took a Man and a Woman to make the homo's in the first place. Face it PowerStroker, allowing gays to marry like heterosexual couples undermines the core principals of marriage. If you fail to see that then you have a mental condition and or are just one of them people that does things with the sole purpose of trying to be different just to piss off others. Homosexuality is a selfish lifestyle that should NOT be rewarded by undermining "Natural" unions PERIOD 

The world is way over-populated as it is for the limited resources that we have...

The world is way over-populated? Maybe that's because the rest of the world lacks morals and responsibility? Is America over populated with it's 300 million people? Or would you say places like China and India (much smaller than the USA) with their 1 BILLION people are overpopulated? Maybe if these countries held their men accountable for their offspring this would not be a problem? To say America is overpopulated is a complete farce. America could become overpopulated due to loose immigration laws but what I have said about other countries and their loose accountability should not make Americans feel as if we are overpopulating the world because WE ARE NOT. So go fuck yourself with that statement and place the blame where it belongs. 

Why you place reproduction so high on your criteria for what makes a legitimate couple is beyond me, I'm a straight man with a vasectomy, so I'll never have any kids, does that make me less of a person?

Why? Because if it wasn't for reproduction I, you or anyone else for that matter would not be here! I know that simple fact is WAY beyond you. If you don't wish to have kids that is your choice and if you have taken steps to prevent it then that too is your choice. I don't think it makes you less of a person but it sure does ensure your heritage/legacy will die with you. Given your current mindset that might not be a bad thing.

Your term "traditional marriage" is vague. Could you elaborate? The bible lists these 8 types of marriage, so are all of these "traditional"?

The standard nuclear family: Genesis 2:24
Polygynous marriage:Genesis 4:19
Levirate Marriage: Genesis 38:6-10
A man, a woman and her property -- a female slave: As described in Genesis 16
A man, one or more wives, and some concubines: Genesis 21:10
A male and female slave: Exodus 21:4
A male soldier and a female prisoner of war: Numbers 31:1-18
A male rapist and his victim: Deuteronomy 22:28-29

Do you see any same sex marriges in that list PowerStroker? No you do not. So where is your point? If anything you have proven my point. If not for the Stigma of homosexuality people could become blind to the fact it's just not natural to fuck your same sex best friend. What's worse? The idea that these sick people feel they should be permitted to undermine the natural order of life and that others should accept and approve of it. Even worse? They seem to think they should get the same concessions that a family should get which is WRONG on every level and totally unfair to a family trying to raise kids. You don't know anything about it PowerStroker and given your choices you never will, so why don't you and the homos leave this topic to the "adults" who made it possible for you to even exist. The sport fuckers and homo's have already proven their selfishness why reward it?


Has your marriage ever been affected negitavely by the gay couple living down the street?

I already told you the story of how I had to rescue my wife from a hotel full of homosexuals. I have already told you how as a heterosexual man I was looked down upon by these homo's and branded a "breeder". Meanwhile they go and fuck themselves and expect me to recognize their skill of being able to stick their dicks in each others asses? Naw... They might as well go clean the shit out of their heads at the same time they wipe it off their cocks because that will never happen so long as their ass-holes face down.

Homosexuality is natural, bigotry is a lifestyle choice. I suggest you choose better.

Bigotry huh? I don't think it's bigotry PowerStroker... I am not intolerant of homosexuals, I am intolerant of the idea that these people think they can disrespect the people that gave up 18+ years of their lives so they could run around and screw their same sex best friend. Homosexuals have no respect, for themselves or anyone else. I don't need nor do I want people like that in my life and I don't want these sick people influencing my kids with their sick ideas either. By allowing same sex marriage you are promoting it. I'd like to see the reaction of Hillary Clinton or Obama if one of their kids turned out to be homosexual. Typical hypocrisy where it's okay for everyone else, except my family. This is the party you subscribe and an overwhelming majority of this nation seems to have lost their way. Sad really, that you would call me a bigot because I do not harbor homosexual feelings but I guess your jackass party needs all the votes it can get, even if it means getting in bed with the same sex. You sick fucks!

Hey PowerStroker! I don't agree with people getting married to or having sex with animals... Does that make me a bigot too? I am sure you and your Democratic base think bestiality is okay too huh?

Let's look at that "all time high" PowerStroker was bragging about back in 2015 --- Wasn't shit compared to the near 30k DOW today...

And lets have another look at that video of the old codger poon hound mack'n on Lady Gaga with his big ole' American flag sweater on New Years Eve in NYC! What a ham! I give him props for trying, but for gawds sake, on national TV with his wife there!?

I dunno...

Numerically the Dow is higher, definitely. I would argue we are still riding the Obama recovery though. Also worth noting is the Dow when Obama took office was around 8000, and when he left office it was right around 20000 and growing. In terms of percentage growth, Trump would have to hit over 40000 to meet Obama's economic success.

But yes, it's always good to bump such things so people can remember how good we used to have it.

What did Trump fuck up besides the Democrat Party?

He kept his promises, donated his Presidential paychecks and finished his term with a record stock market! Democrats hated him because he was so brutally honest and he didn't take any shit from the Liberal media or any of the jackasses on the Hill.

I suggest your party get to work shitting Tiffany cufflinks for the American people because 2022 is less than two years away! 

Right now a lot of Americans are struggling due to the games your party played on the people with COVID to steal the election. They would be wise to get working on them stimulus checks before dicking around with Trump. Then again, we have seen your Democrat party hinder and obstruct the freely elected President Trump for the past four years! I doubt that will stop now, but my hope is Republicans will show you the same level of cooperation!

Nice, I think everyone has built card houses back in the day... back then things were different... no distractions like there is today.

Outside of the Telephone and programed television you just did what was fun to pass the time. I hope it's still the same for some kids today!

But House of Cards is a Netflix show, it starred a guy named Frank Underwood who had them cufflinks above, just incase you didn't watch the show... it was a Liberal show on the Liberal Network of Netflix.

I haven't watched Netflix in almost two years now... when they raised the prices for the third time and started releasing more stuff than anyone could keep up with I left.

The market bled out like a stuck pig again today... 800 points in the drink... It would be sad to think this is because of a crap platform like Twitter, but $44 billion is a lot of money and I'm sure some of it was carved out of the market.

West Wing was a liberal show, but House of Cards portrayed Democrat Frank Underwood and his wife as absolute monsters. I'm not sure how that's a liberal show?

Fair enough, but Netflix did turn liberal there for awhile in their programing... or at least that's the kind of WOKE programing they were pushing...

Then there is the fact that most Liberals liked House of Cards, as did many Conservatives because they are just twisted that way... I might add that Hillary herself was a self admited fan of House of Cards, at least before Kevin Spacy was canceled... if you think about it, Kevin Spacy was one of the first to undergo what we now know as cancel culture... him and a few others.

I have never seen West Wing, althought Melissa binge watched it awhile back so it must be a Liberal show... West Wing almost seems to have a cult following, and before you said anything I never even knew it was a Liberal favorite. I think the woman has watched it too, and from what little I have seen of it, I more or less thought it was one of them love stories... much like General Hospital or Days of our Lives... Do you think I would enjoy watching West Wing? Currently I'm trying to finish off Yellowstone, then I have to catch up on Big Sky, and I been working on Logmire for over a year now... that's my go-to for when I need white noise for sleeping as it seems to be very long and will play thru until I wake up the next morning... so I have yet to even get close to the end...

Maybe Netflix isn't a Liberal network... I dunno, sure seems like it... anymore it's getting hard to see the difference... Peacock made Yellowstone and I don't find that show to be Liberal in any way.

West Wing was a very high budget show, and a true master work... I've watched it a few times, and know you would enjoy it too. Even though it portrays a Democratic administration in a mostly positive light, it is without question the most realistic depiction of an actual White House administration I have ever seen. After the first couple episodes which are basically for character introduction, it shows very realistic situations. Many based on actual events, and how an administration deals with them for better or worse. It also shows significant failures, and how they absolutely haunt this particular president, especially when soldiers lives are lost. As well as the frustrations of wanting to make changes that would benefit the American people, but being constantly frustrated by a Congress with other priorities. As well as the president's personal struggles as he tries to balance his own morality with laws that run counter to it ie: Wanting desperately to prevent an execution, and having the power to do so, but ultimately refusing to because he understands that his job is to uphold the laws of man.

For all of his good intentions, President Bartlett makes some pretty significant mistakes like not disclosing a diagnosed medical condition that could, and does affect his ability to perform his duties. This plunges his administration into a huge election fraud scandal with a special prosecutor and Congressional hearings. And while this is playing out, his personal secretary who he has known for decades is killed by a drunk driver, which just about breaks him. After her funeral, he orders the secret service clear out National Cathedral and lock him inside alone to have a few words with God. That was a powerful episode.

The show doesn't just follow the president though, but his entire senior staff, some of whom are far more liberal than the president himself, and find themselves frustrated when they can't steer the president toward policies because of political considerations. They would rather lose reelection and use their limited opportunity to make some real positive changes for the country, but often run up against competing interests which often make them question why they even bother trying.

Art imitating life I guess, but imitating it very, very well.

That's quite a write up PowerStroker! Sounds like you enjoyed that show!

Might have to check it out next winter, sounds like it will take some time and concentration. How many seasons and episodes in each?

I'm also one of them people who will watch a show many times to pick up on things I didn't catch the first time around when I was caught up in the storyline. I watched 24 and the Sopranos a few times to pick up on things I might have missed and there is always something you missed each time you re-watch it. Love a good show that keeps your attention, even the third and fourth times you watch it.

I'm currently watching Yellowstone right now, I try not to mix up shows because sometimes you can get put off on both trying to keep up.

I was on Instagram today and seen this video from POTUS... I had to do a double take because it looked like Biden had like a 10 pound bud of pot on his end table...

You tell me... What does that green thing on his table behind the books look like at first glance?
