Random Politics & Religion #00

Next time you want to refer to today's rates, don't use historical values and reference them as the ending period. Just a head's up for next time, so you don't look like a fool (well, more of a fool than usual).

Friendly advice.

Please point out anywhere in the article in question that the RNC endorses his possible candidacy.

All the article did was show somebody who is throwing their name in the hat. Nothing more, nothing less.

I would accuse you of lack of reading comprehension, but we both know why you made that comment anyway.

"Why would any sane person want to do that?” he asked.

Today's rate is the rate at which you can walk into a bank and exchange the money for. In August, you could take a USD to a Russian bank and get 35 Roubles, today, you can take a USD to a Russian bank and get 45 Roubles.

It didn't really even say he was throwing his name into the hat.

It mentioned first that he had given thought to it and then that he would leave in the hands of god and then that he didn't want to be president because,

When asked about his presidential ambitions in the past, Carson has repeatedly responded that he would "leave it up to God." Last month, he told Fusion that he did not want to be president.

"Why would any sane person want to do that?” he asked.

That being said I was commenting more on your reaction to the article. Wait for the dems to come out sniping! (which is highly hypocritical since the pubs do the exact same thing look at the illinois governors race. Rauner spent almost $50 million dollars attempting to assasinate Quinns character)

You were implying with your comment that he was a potential candidate at all and I was commenting in reply to say it's ridiculous for a number of reasons.

Actually Jassik you don't need to dumb it down at all next time, just do the exact same thing and let the kids try to claim otherwise. Don't know why they care so much about your holiday shopping but it was very amusing watching chaos and KN flail around and end up saying nothing.

End of story, game over, go get somebody audited.

There's no bank on earth that would give you 45 Rubles for $1 right now.

Max you're getting is 37.9 + a possible bank fee depending on where you do it.

Whatever.

I know you got to support your fellow "non-liberals" on this website, but there's got to be a point when you stop wearing out your kneepads and actually stand up for your own values and points for once in your lives.

But Jassik said that he would get it! It doesn't matter if he really can't, because he did, he will.

I know you have to stick up for chaos at all, but the current exchange rate is 46.7:1.

Common sense explanation: They want the dollars.

President Obama will nominate Loretta E. Lynch, the top federal prosecutor in Brooklyn, to succeed Eric H. Holder Jr. as attorney general, people close to the process said Friday evening.

If confirmed she would be the first African-American woman to serve as the nation’s top law enforcement official. She would also be a rare instance of Mr. Obama reaching outside his inner circle to fill a crucial post.

Mr. Obama’s nomination of Ms. Lynch might carry substantial political benefits for a White House recalibrating its strategy after Republicans took over the Senate.

Indeed, Ms. Lynch is a two-time United States attorney who has twice been confirmed by the Senate by acclamation, in 2000 and again in 2010. She also has no personal ties to Mr. Obama or his policies, freeing her of the political baggage that has weighed down other candidates once thought to have an edge in the process.

Her nomination also allows the president, questioned in recent days about what he might do differently after the electoral thrashing by Republicans, to bring a fresh face into an administration many have criticized as too insular.

Ok so you got that far... Russia, on the other hand, doesn't want the dollars. Haven't for awhile now. But they still have to deal with them.

Will the Senate confirm her, thats the question.

President Barack Obama has approved sending up to 1,500 more troops to Iraq, roughly doubling the number of U.S. forces on the ground to advise and retrain Iraqis in their battle against the militant group Islamic State, U.S. officials said on Friday.

Obama's decision greatly expands the scope of the U.S. campaign and the geographic distribution of American forces, some of whom will head into Iraq's fiercely contested western Anbar province for the first time to act as advisors.

It also raises the stakes in Obama's first interactions with Congress after his Democratic Party was thumped by Republicans in mid-term elections this week. The White House said it would ask Congress for $1.6 billion for a new "Iraq Train and Equip Fund."

Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby said those funds would need to be approved before the first additional forces headed to Iraq, something one official speculated could happen in just weeks.

Kirby told a Pentagon news briefing that Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel was urging Congress to approve the funding as soon as possible. It is part of a larger $5.6 billion supplemental spending request.

The guy in that video is the guy who was instrumental in the creation of the ACA. He speaks about how the bill was UN-transparent BY DESIGN because if the it was framed as what it really is, a massive tax and transfer of wealth from the healthy to the sick, it would have died without question.

This from the most transparent administration evah! It pretty much proves that the ideas of liberals and progressives are so bad that they need to lie in order to sell them.

Again. If ACA was remotely unique in that respect, you might have a point, but it's not.
