‘Left, Right & Center’: Jobs, Kagan & ImmigrationPosted on Jul 2, 2010
The employment situation is looking grim for our nation. What’s to be done? And financial regulation got derailed—score another one for big banking! Can “Left, Right & Center” regulars Robert Scheer, Tony Blankley and Matt Miller offer any answers to these modern-day conundrums? Also: Elena Kagan’s kabuki dance and Obama’s immigration speech are duly noted by our panelists. KCRW:

I don`t believe G_d has anything to do with our Human
Report thisStupidity, arrogance and ignorance.
Free will to teach US how to make decisions and live
with them.
No blame Game-G_D on this Gay Keg of Kagan,
drink to your fill, and still never know the truth.
Hoover Edgar, 50 years FBI, chased down everyone
especially Gays-queers, remember, when Edgar goes
home and changes into his evening dress and high
heels, why not same boy friend for 40 years, Who
cares if we don`t know Kagan, like Hoover 40 years of
influence. Don`t ask don`t tell! Musical Chairs! It`s
all Good!

From Tony’s Townhall column:
As these truths become more broadly understood and accepted, I think more Americans—Republicans and Democrats, hawks and doves, liberals and conservatives—will come around to the lamentable conclusion that a continued, substantial U.S. militarily presence in Afghanistan will do no good for the United States or the long-suffering people of Afghanistan.
You will never hear this from Matt. Needless to say nothing ever got accomplished by compromise

Unemployment, failing financial problems globally,
abnormal global weather patters, are just a few of
the judgements of God taking place throughout the
world as related in the following comments I just
posted following the report “5 Million Iraqis Killed,
Maimed, Tortured, Displaced—-Think That Bothers War
Boosters?” You can turn things around by humbling
yourself, praying to God to forgive your sins, and
begin a new life style in which you follow the
teachings of Jesus, Ten Commandments, dietary laws,
etc. The choice is yours. Just remember that you
will suffer the consequences for your choices.

Report thisAnarcissie—-Besides being forbidden in the Bible
Lesbianism is an act against nature. It is deviant
behavior for someone to put their mouth where another
person eliminates urine and feces. It is also
dangerous. While in the Cleveland Clinic several
years ago for heart problems I was watching an
educational program on health produced by The
Cleveland Clinic. It stated that Lesbians could
catch AIDS along with other sexually transmitted diseases. Lesbianism is popular in pornography from
Southern Califforia which is having influence
on the minds and behaviors of females beginning their
psycho/social development throughout the world. God
destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah because
of their sexual perversions. The Bible says this
was done as an example to others. Sexual deviancy
is one of many sins plaguing the world and causing
financial problems, aberrant weather conditions,
etc. God is saying “Repent and return to loving
Jesus and keeping his commandments.” If not prepare
for things to get extremely worse on planet earth.

Robert- I agree with you. They are criminals even if they do have the political
lobbyist muscle to rewrite the laws to excuse their crimes.
What’s going to happen with the economy guys? I’m lucky to have a job and a
company that does not look like it’s in trouble right now. But, I’m really
concerned. Will there be a Depression? What would it look like?
Tony- What data are you looking at when you say that extension of
Report thisunemployment benefits temps people from looking for work? There are tons of
really good people out there who have, through no fault of their own. lost their
jobs and, despite their best efforts, have not been able to find a new or
comparable one, because they just are not out there. Where are all these great job
hiding? China?
