Besides, when he was in the Senate, in 2007, he pushed forward the Iraq De-Escalation Act.

He was on a state, not US, senate. You're lucky I'd even consider him voting against the war, but since Durbin is really a man who's been true to American values - I'll let it slide. Durbin was the only Illinois senator to vote against, so really Obama, being a citizen from Illinois, voted both ways - in the senate.

Sorry Mak Manto, but you really need to read my posts, rather than the first couple lines.

I really don't care what Obama has voted for - if the bills don't pass, they don't pass. He still hasn't talked about getting rid of the executive orders. He paid the Fed and he won't talk about auditing them. He won't talk about Sibel Edmonds. He has denounced 9/11 theorists.

And I'm gonig to re-refer you to health care. A CORPORATION is fueling the right wing. The part of health care that was meant to actually help people is out because pharma and insurance will lose profits.

You do know Bush, thus Wolfowitz, doctrine is part of NS act, right? 'Left' hasn't moved to revoke that.

At least he was telling the truth when he said something like, "Any problems America faces in the world, today, are America's fault."

Did you even read SkepticO's thread about lobbyists and how they control congress? Here, "Damn the Country, Obama Must Fail"



You do know the Taliban in Afghanistan are burning poppies right?

2.5 tril goes missing prior to 9/11... What, 1.6 trillion is missing now? Violence in Afghanistan is increasing again, what? Coincedence? How about you?

And since this is derailed.

The bill proposed here is designed to make decisions for me. I'm more than able to handle my own choices and the responsibility thus ensuing. Thanks.

Ship to shore short wave radio my friends. It is the one form of communication that cannot be jammed.

Land based short wave is easily interfered with. If they should happen to shut down selected internet web links, the old way of communicating will be of use.

Short wave radio! Especially nautical radio. I have such a radio in my car.

Also, Nautical and Aeronautical radio waves lengths can cross communicate.

Avoid CB radios, and Ham radios.

I firmly believe when SHTF, the inter-net will be corrupted and rendered pretty much useless. If the government wants to crack down on "information sites" it doesn't like, it will do so. The Chinese do it, without much trouble.

We have grown so used to having this avenue of mass communication at our disposal, we cannot quite imagine life without it. Somewhat like the telephone, radio and television.

100 years ago none of them existed. We tapped on keys that sent messages of dots and dashes across wires to a receiver. It was called the telegraph. Or we mailed letters.
