    You have taken my 5% and think I said 155%. You seem to be so far off that all I can do is laugh now. North, what happened to you? You just grab one person at a time and try to ride them until they leave? Sorry I won't leave, but I will probably just ignore any more of your stalking posts. I mean, come on, you are in the wrong thread now even.

    :eek:

    To simplify, following the OP’s thread question… Yes and the only way to stop it is to abolish religion and turn against your Government, My God that is all, what’s so hard?

    Don't be hard on debunk, I like him because of his sense of humor. Look at his forum name, debunked. The only person he has ever debunked in this forum is himself. :D

    Laugh, if this brings you comfort, debunked, but there is nothing honorable in anything you are doing, and your statements are meritless. You provide links to laws you would use to support your (outrageous) claim, I post the law in question, verbatim and in full, and the law explicitly shows it has zero to do with whatever meritless point you were trying to make.

    (All others, if interested in the truth, please refer to post 1215 - the entire text of the first law debunked claims proves the United States is introducing legislation that makes the utterance of words from the Bible "hate speech" punishable by law. You decide).

    Now, as to relevance to this thread, please note it was yourself who indicated:

    As I disagree, you'll forgive me if I respond, and with substance as to why.

    Now, again:

    Please provide evidence the United States of America is moving to murdering Christians if they don't convert to atheism or Islam; and

    Please provide evidence that there is legislation introduced in the United States Congress declaring the uttering of words from the Bible to be hate speech, punishable by law.

    You may continue to post something that falls to nothing under scrutiny, then, shown as such, declare it is everyone else who is at fault, or lying, or twisting, or any other facile means you have attempted to discredit substantive contentions.

    But I don't imagine anyone is truly fooled, debunked. I also would have thought your self-declared faith and code of ethics would demand you stand tall, and stand honorably, when trying to make your points, rather than resorting to such false means.

    I can't believe I am trying again.... why are you so determined to try to make this out to something that I wasn't?

    Can I say anything now without you trying to put it up against the fire? Can I say I think blue jeans are going out of style or they will be considered lame in the future and not have you go haywire on why I think that?

    You got to understand how ridiculous you look trying to make this into such a huge argument, when it was just a quick statement of something I see possible in the future because of something I have been seeing or experiencing.

    Sorry for responding. I guess this all stems from me saying something negative about Obama, because I can't for the life of me figure out why you have attacked this one statement with all your guns even when I clarify my opinion over and over...

    No debunk, if anyone looks rediculous it is you for blatantly lying, and when NPT goes and asks for for proof, you back off and say oh I wasn't being serious. Very childish!

    I haven't seen that you've clarified anything, actually. I have seen you provide a set of links to laws that do not support your stand, and otherwise ascribe some kind of subterranean intent on my part - a habit that has seemingly become de rigeur for you, from what I can tell, whenever your points are addressed. You would do well to stick with what's on the page, as divining intents is a key reason you seem to get into trouble, debunked.

    On this thread, you claim liberals "refuse to deal with what is, and shuffle off responsibility to others," in a word. I dispute this, for reasons I have given; most immediately, chiefly, refusing to provide evidence for:

    and

    Is a prime example how dodging issues is not limited to one side of the aisle or the other - you have given prima facie evidence for this.

    If it makes you uncomfortable that points you make are addressed, I'd recommend you consider a bit more deeply before posting.

    Inflation and the dollar are two wild card factors that will limit the Fed's ability to maneuver. The euro is at 1.5805 dollars and Oil at $110.14 per barrel. This week two inflation indicators -- the Producer Price Index and the Consumer Price Index -- are set for release. The economic calendar also includes U.S. housing starts, industrial output and capacity utilization, and the Fed's Beige Book.

    Job losses, home foreclosures and inflation are taking a toll on both corporate earnings and housing prices.

    From what I am seeing, we will see a “double-dip recession”

    However things can get worse.

    1. We're not at bottom.

    2. The CPI numbers are lagging indicators. They tell us nothing about what inflation is tomorrow, or 2 months from now. The PPI will be a little better, but I wouldn't read a lot into those #s either.

    Keep watching the dollar.

    The Eurozone has already replaced the US as the world's largest economy.

    Yup. I figure that China and the Eurozone will overtake the US and relegate it to third within 10 years.

    Euro dollars is getting too strong due to the USD weakness, I guess they may try to adjust the rates.

    Wachovia just got a swift kick in the nuts.

    It will be interesting to see what this means to the market at open tomorrow.
