THE SOCIALIST PARTY HOSTED THE HOODIE MARCH IN NEW YORK!
SOCIALISM wants racism to be the focal point!!!
I have found a socialist website who is trying to exploit this tragedy by taking the lead in it, and I posted a scathing response to their rehtoric to try to draw those who are suffering into their ideals.
SOCIALISM is a reduced form of slavery and has nothing to do with justice, judgement and equity in this case.
SOCIALISM has never solved any societal malidy. Socialists see the people who are gathering now over this issue as people who are primed and ready to be molded; no more than pawns to the elite who engineer socialism and fool the public into accepting it as a reality. This happened in Russia in 1920s with the Bolshevik revolution (funded by Wall Street and German bankers (Rothschilds) and the elite through Rockefeller have created the new left to further strife and to bring about the same thing in America today.
Why is socialism and socialist blogs and websites involved?
IT IS VILE TO USE THIS HORRIBLE TRAGEDY TO TRY TO SELL SOCIALIST IDEALS TO TRY TO ESTABLISH AUTHORITY OVER AND ABOVE ANYONE ELSE OVER IT.
I BELIEVE IN HOPE, AND HAVE FAITH IN OUR SOCIETY, AND TREAT EACH SITUATION AS A UNIQUE ISSUE, SOCIALISM BELIEVES PEOPLE ARE DEGENERATES.
The truth is this, human beings are self actualizing by nature when psychologically healthy, this is why we must be hurt and stunted psychologically so that socialism has the potential to take root and florish but it won’t because no matter how pliable, how manipulate able, or how gullible people are they still have individual will, senses, and a soul. It is because of these that socialism will never work, because we are something more than they deem us.
Money Money Money
What overrides everything is the Money Money Money that is to be made on advertising, and the “jobs” as campaign workers. I wonder how many people who are “working on a campaign” are MAKING. I wonder what percentage of Tea Party people who have joined only joined to get a job on a campaign.

A lot of blogs everywhere with adwords will make a lot of money from Mitt Romney too.

100,000 Jobs Created?
Romney about his job-creation credentials claimed credit for more than 100,000 net jobs.
100,000 Jobs Created?
In a Time magazine interview on Dec. 21, Romney said:
Romney, Dec. 21: And so I’ll compare my experience in the private sector where, net-net, we created over 100,000 jobs. We created over 100,000 jobs.
100,000 Jobs Created?
He repeated the claim in a Jan. 3 appearance on Fox News’ “Fox and Friends,” but that time said he “helped” create them.
Romney, Jan. 3: And I’m very happy in my former life; we helped create over 100,000 new jobs.
100,000 Jobs Created? When we asked the Romney camp for support, spokesman Eric Fehrnstrom sent us a list of jobs added at three companies in which Bain had invested, saying that these three examples alone created over 100,000 jobs: Staples, which had 89,000 employees as of Dec. 31, 2010; The Sports Authority, which had 15,000 employees as of July 2011; and Domino’s, which has added 7,900 jobs since 1999.
That’s hardly a rigorous analysis of jobs gained and lost at companies Bain backed. And does Romney deserve credit for all of those jobs? Bain was but one of several investors in The Sports Authority, which was launched with the monetary help of William Blair Venture Partners, Phillips-Smith and Marquette Venture Partners. Not to mention the work of founding executives at the company, such as CEO Jack A. Smith.
Plus, Kmart owned the company for about five years starting in 1990. Does Kmart get credit for whatever job growth occurred then? In 2006, the private equity firm Leonard Green & Partners acquired Sports Authority. Does Bain, and Romney, still get credit for jobs created after the company is bought or sold years later?
Staples, too, was launched with money from William Blair and Bessemer Venture Partners, two firms mentioned by Staples founder and former CEO Tom Stemberg, who, it could be argued, deserves the most credit for jobs added by the office-supply store. In comments published by CNN Money in 2002, Stemberg said that Bain “gave us a boost” by talking them up to Avery Dennison, an office-supply wholesaler.
Determining who gets credit for how many jobs is challenging, to say the least.
Bain managers told the Los Angeles Times that they weren’t focused on creating jobs; they were trying to make money.
Los Angeles Times, Dec. 3: “I never thought of what I do for a living as job creation,” said Marc B. Walpow, a former managing partner at Bain who worked closely with Romney for nine years before forming his own firm. “The primary goal of private equity is to create wealth for your investors.”
And then there are the job losses. Bain took over other companies where layoffs, and even bankruptcies, followed. Romney said that 100,000 figure was “net-net.” So, whatever job creation figure one could use, we’d have to subtract jobs lost, such as 385 jobs cut at American Pad & Paper; 1,900 positions cut or relocated at Dade International; 2,100 workers laid off from DDI Corp.; 2,500 jobs lost at Clear Channel Communications; and 3,400 layoffs at KB Toys. Those examples come from Politico and the New York Times.
What Caused the Great Depression?
What Caused the Great Depression?
Many believe erroneously that the stock market crash that occurred on Black Tuesday, October 29, 1929 is one and the same with the Great Depression. In fact, it was one of the major causes that led to the Great Depression. Two months after the original crash in October, stockholders had lost more than $40 billion dollars. Even though the stock market began to regain some of its losses, by the end of 1930, it just was not enough and America truly entered what is called the Great Depression.
What Caused the Great Depression?
Inflation sends false signals into the system
Throughout the 1930s over 9,000 banks failed. Bank deposits were uninsured and thus as banks failed people simply lost their savings. Surviving banks, unsure of the economic situation and concerned for their own survival, stopped being as willing to create new loans. This exacerbated the situation leading to less and less expenditures.

American Bald Eagle vs. Vultures
American Bald Eagle vs. Vultures
In English a “vulture” is different than an “eagle” — and we also have hawks, falcons, turkey vultures (“buzzards”), eagle owls, and more — but beyond the zoological differences, the two words also represent very different qualities: a vulture is usually bad, while an eagle is usually good.
“Eyes like an eagle” refers to someone who has the good fortune of seeing well, as does “eyes like a hawk.” “Eyes like a vulture,” though not a common expression, to me indicates something nefarious.
“Waiting around like vultures,” too, refers to something untoward. “Waiting around like eagles” — again, not a common expression — to me is neutral or positive.
To “soar like an eagle” is a good thing, while “to soar like a vulture” — even though vultures and eagles soar almost exactly the same way — is bad.
I think that all of this is important because it highlights an important fact about how language works: the associations of a word extend beyond the literal meaning of the word.
In Matthew 24:28 and Luke 17:37, the aetos birds gather around (dead) bodies. That’s what “vultures” stereotypically do in English.
American Bald Eagle vs. Vultures
Revelation 4:7, which matches Ezekiel 1:10, mentions a lion, an ox, a human, and an eagle. It’s hard to know if, in that context, aetos was supposed to be positive (soaring like an eagle, for example) or negative (perhaps like an ox that gores). But certainly to the extent that the four animals are used to represent the four evangelists, and, in particular, to the extent that John is an aetos, only “eagle” works in English. (Question: Do you think we should we let that later interpretation influence our translation decision?)
In the OT, aetos is used for nesher. We find the word in Isaiah 40:31, for example, where it is clearly positive: people who wait for God are compared to eagles.
In Exodus we see the well-known image of “wings of Eagles,” upon which God lifted up the Israelites. There “wings of vultures” certainly doesn’t work in English.
In Habakkuk 1:8, though, nesher (and aetos) are used as a predatory image: The Chaldeans “fly like a nesher, quick to devour.” Though most translations go with “eagle” here, I think “vulture” is better.
(Micah 1:6 is interesting, too, because it uses the phrase, bald “like the eagle.” Eagles aren’t bald — not even the bald eagle — but vultures are.)
Deuteronomy 14:12-18 and Leviticus 11:13-19 both contain lists of birds that are not to be eaten. Though it’s almost impossible now to know what each word represented there, we do see evidence of an advanced ornithological taxonomy.

Florida 2012 Election
By MJ LEE | 1/12/12 6:37 AM EST
Sarah Palin suggested Wednesday that Mitt Romney has brought his Bain problems on himself by not being transparent and offering no documentation for the claim that he created 100,000 net jobs and refusing to release his tax returns.
Florida 2012 Election
“Gov. Romney has claimed to have created a 100,00 jobs at Bain, and people are wanting to know, is there proof of that claim and was it U.S. jobs created for United States citizens? … And that’s fair,” Palin told Sean Hannity of Fox News when asked about Rick Perry’s “vulture” caplitalism charge against Romney. “That’s not negative campaigning — that’s fair to get a candidate to be held accountable to what’s being claimed.”

Palin added, “Nobody should be surprised that things about Bain Capital and maybe tax returns not being released yet and maybe some record not being as transparently provided to the public as voters deserve to see right now — don’t be surprised that that’s’ all coming out today.”

Citing President Barack Obama’s “machine” and the billion dollars his campaign will have behind him, the former Alaska governor also suggested that it’s better for the Republican hopefuls to face a barrage of attacks from their own GOP rivals, rather than deal with them for the first time during the general election.
“It’s kind of like a come to Jesus moment for some of these candidates, and that’s healthy and that’s good,” she said. “It is rough and tumble. It’s not beanbag, as Romney and others have called it, and these guys have to be prepared for this.”
