    Are you getting paid per post? All of your posts are 1 liners which doesn´t contribute to the discussion in anyway.

    No, not contradicting. Oil is 100% manipulated same as everything on the stockmarket.

    It costs the same to produce right? So, when they were pushing for alternative energies well before 9/11 (when the global warming scare was the number one fear), here they were talking about converting wind and solar. The biggest argument was petrol was too cheap. They worked out that petrol prices needed to go much higher to make the alternatives a viable option. So, many of the pension funds, superannuation, councils, insurers and stuff here in Australia then went and bought oil shares, pushing the prices way way up.

    If war stopped tomorrow they'd keep prices high, in fact I believe they'll go even higher as the weather gets worse.

    If I answer you then you will run to moderators and cry a river as usual, so I just ignore your rant.

    Did not realize there were 150 states. ;)

    Julian, the moderation team does not need any assistance from me. Any infractions you get, you bring on yourself with your immature behavior and inability to play nice with others.

    Funny enough, it has never stopped you from crying a river while going around and giving anonymous red rep to others. :)

    Who uses this term anymore? Is it 1965? The only thing more outdated than this is "colored." Most people would say black, but I get your point. I don't agree with it, but I understand what you are trying to say.

    I am from India, but I always seen the video of Obama at most of news channel. As I know he is a one of the great president of US, so no one can beat him even Hillary Clinton also.

    Depends on where you live and how old you are. Many people in certain parts of Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma still use colored.

    Negro, depending on the context does not mean the "N" word. It's a color. Much like Black - or white is to caucasian.

    Depending on how old you are, if you are a person of color chance are your birth certificate says "Negro".

    Whether the one who posted that meant it in a derogatory way? Well that's anyone's guess. Frankly I don't care. I think the point he was trying to make was ultimately whether a person of color , a different race, "African" descent, or whatever politically correct vernacular you choose to use, would have a chance at the top job again.

    Perhaps not the best chosen set of words, but an interesting question none the less.

    For the record, most people I know don't find fault with race as the reason for the current president's ineptness and inability to lead. Any faults he has lie with him as an individual and his party as a whole, not his racial background.

    This is why some politicians get elected. Uninformed people just get all of their info from some media source such as a news channel and base all of their opinions on that.

    This has got to be a joke. Someone not from this country can somehow know that Obama is one of the best presidents of the U.S. ever based upon seeing some edited news clips of him on a news station. I didn't see the smiley face so I'm not sure.
