Nev. takes steps to be prepared for Ebola
By Steve Morre, Las Vegas Review-Journal
An advisory task force to oversee Nevada’s preparations for Ebola is being organized to ensure plans are in place to contain the deadly virus in the event of an exposure in the state, Nevada Chief Medical Officer Tracey Green said Friday.
An Ebola tool kit is available online with information about what steps need to be taken to reduce the risk of infection for emergency medical responders, health care workers and the public.
Gov. Brian Sandoval has called for health care experts and public health officials to enhance communication, training and responsiveness on the Ebola situation, and to provide regular updates to his office. Green, Nevada epidemiologist Ihsan Azzam and others in the state’s Public Health Preparedness and Emergency Management Services agency have followed directives and alerts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Because the comic book clown in DC pretending to be President when not golfing or buying Hollywood mansions can’t close our borders or airspace even though seventy percent demand it, any Obola patient that appears should be sent directly to DC where they can set up tents for a growing Obola zone.
Let me interject a little reality for you Justice.
As of Aug. 8, 2014, Obama had taken 19 vacations totaling 125 days so far while in office. Those numbers have risen a bit due to the Martha’s Vineyard vacation, but that’s still many fewer than George W. Bush’s 65 combined trips to his Texas ranch and his parents’ home in Kennebunkport, Maine, which totaled 407 days at the same point in his presidency.
Also at this point we have an Ebola infection rate of one in 110 million Americans with no deaths. So your Ebola hysteria just isn’t playing out as you would hope.
It’s not playing out…….yet. Keep your head in the sand and maybe you won’t catch it.
The cost of Obola’s vacations? How many millions? How many millions for his fund raising trips? How many millions for separate jets?
Delusional people are putting this country at more risk then ever before. If people believe they can get here for treatment they will try no matter how sick they are and if they brought their fever down with Tylenol.
The only two individuals that have been infected with the ebola virus here are healthcare people that actually care what happens to someone other than themselves. That virtually eliminates any chance of infection for some people.
Injustice. YAWN
same insane rant, different day. Take your meds yet?
Why don’t the Obola-Bummers who don’t want to have travel bans fly to Africa now and put their money and health at risk if they really want to be in this environment. The 70% here don’t want Obola or Obummer here so after the 30% leave for Africa the rest can have some level of safety. Although every time a liberal is asked how many homeless people they have taken in or extra taxes they have paid, the answer is always zero, this will be the same result. They want everyone running the risk to be “fair” so the country remains at risk from leftist incompetent imbeciles.
Ha! Nevada is not ready for the common core! Nevada is good for mines, hookers, spousal abuse, government subsidies, unemployment and nuclear waste. ‘justice’ is easily influenced and makes us all chuckle out loud. Ebola is only a threat to ignorant people like justice. Please return to Nascar you ignorant pug.
Maybe while the 30% of Obola deniers tour Africa, your hero Obummer-Obola will show you the hut he was born in! Or his father’s thirty wives and a hundred unsupported children!
Justice: I give you a 58% for that troll. Even Mr. Hair (Trump) had to finally admit Obama was born in Hawaii.
PS.Take a look at FoxNews Shepard Smith’s 3minute blurb why the Ebola hysterics is downright stupid. This may trouble you as it based on evidence not made up s–t.
Oh, and btw, the Texas hospital chief has apologized for all of their mistakes (you know private industry); and guess what, even with their mishandling it is looking like we will be stopping at two nursers who contracted the disease while providing care to a dying man at the height of contagiousness.
I have never fully grasped individuals who would rather troll than engage in thoughtful discussion/debate. Were you dropped on your head as a child?
Rick
So you’re volunteering to go? Didn’t think so. Out of several hundred W. Africans coming in a day, you will state they are healthy? You aren’t capable of rational thought let alone logical conclusions based on unknowns. Your failures aren’t worth a pile of manure in a pasture.
Your lack of thought is as dangerous as the Obola deniers, ask how many in the military want to travel to Africa in this epidemic? Then return or not. The answer is almost none want to go. This is not what our military is for and I don’t blame any that refuse this unlawful order from an imposter and comic book clown playing President when not AWOL.
It is also good to point out this is the first pretend mostly imposter called a President in history who has illegal African relatives in the country who have not been deported let alone paid attention to by liberal media. This pattern of illegal entry may go back decades to a person named Barack Hussein. There has been so much covered up that people are waiting for the truth to come out about Obummer and Obola and Africa and the mind-less liberals responsible for them being in power.
Symptoms of Ebola include:
Fever
Severe headache
Muscle pain
Weakness
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Abdominal (stomach) pain
Unexplained hemorrhage
Symptoms of Obola include:
Fever-for Obama
Severe headache-from trying to understand logic
Muscle pain-in-the-azz-given to everyone
Weakness-of thought
Diarrhea-of the mouth
Vomiting all over these posts
Abdominal (stomach) pain-gutless insults
Unexplained hemorrhage-of sanity
Yep-looks like (in)Justice is infected with Obola.
Hmmm, I think you have it, his post are getter more and more incoherent and irrelevant (if that is actually possible).
Rick
Justice… oh Justice… Nurse Ratched says it is time to take your medication now. LOL!
It would appear the only thing they know how to “quarantine” in Texas are Women looking for Abortion Clinics.
Yup, diaharia and hemmoraging of the brain these two symptoms fit justice to a tea. LOL
Keep shining your Obola-Biden bumper stickers so people can keep laughing at you.
After the election we will see who is laughing and the laughing-stock of the nation.
I do enjoy a good comedy, just not a continual leftist comedy of errors that are dangerous.
.
I’m pretty sure you’ll be crying when Hillary Clinton is sworn in as our next two term president Justice! And your comedic style is quite evident in your laughable comments!
She was beaten by a no-name junior Senator with zero experience except as a community agitator like Sharpe-Tongue and Jack-ass-son. We will see indeed what the country wants then. Now, the leftist incompetents are going to be shown the door and a boot heel to their rears.
No need to cry if Killary is elected. It’ll just show us that the country has completely gone over the cliff, that the majority of citizens care more about free stuff and comfort than they do about honor and the future. And that with a continuation of the “progressive” doctrine in government, the lawlessness and disregard of the Constitution will continue. Therefore, those of us who remember what ‘truth, justice, and the American way’ were, will have to become just as ruthless, in our own way. Our government now makes laws for us, while they live by a different standard, so why should we feel the need to abide by their rules? They change the laws depending on the whim of obama and his cabinet now, and I’m sure Hillary will continue in the same way. You can see how the attitude is trickling down with localized politicians already. Take the mayor or Houston, subpoenaing the sermons of pastors; how does that not violate the 1st Amendment? But our leaders no longer care about laws. Laws are for the little people. . .
Poor justice and dogface, I was just watching this evenings news (and it wasnt foxnoisenothing) and it looks like all your fear mongering and trying to manifest an ebola epidemic through your ignorance, well, it just didnt work. Im sure you are in mourning and are gob smacked by the fact your sources of info. And knowledge just didnt work for you.
I guess now its safe for you to come out from under your rocks, too bad, WHHAAA
Yes Hillary the beast is in San-Fran-Sick-O now raising money from leftist fools who share her lack of values. Looks like the pastel pant-suit is on again for a lack of power look. The Clintons are a national joke who think people still care or like them when they don’t. This old corrupt impeached open marriage couple are as delusional as it gets.
Justice and Dogula, here is a headline and a link to an article that shows the writing on the wall quite clearly as it pertains to the GOP and those conservatives of your ilk that will bring the GOP down.
Colorado School Board Controversy Turning Frustrated Republicans Into Democrats
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/20/colorado-school-board_n_6015818.html?utm_hp_ref=politics
Not sure the specific logical fallacy dawg is using (false choice + ??) but it is similar to what was used in the Bush years. If you don’t support the war, you don’t support freedom. And the more sinister ‘you don’t support the war? what you don’t support the troops who die for your freedom?!’.
And there is the self referential definitions, defining progressives as being specifically lawless and against the constitution.
Pastors aren’t immune. Churches have become increasingly politically active, on an issue that has been declared unconstitutional many times. Their religious opinion has no place in government, so what we really need is an absolute separation of church and state, both ways. If one made up book is used to make laws, all made up books should be used. You talk about the constitution as a holy document, have you read Jefferson’s take on church and state? Any organization that seeks to undermine civil liberties through the political process should expect to be monitored.
So be proactive. Keep the consequences of your belief to yourself and the willing participants in your group. With so many gods and sects within those gods, we can’t choose one and be fair to everyone. It is really simple. Perhaps too simple for a YEC.
Yes the leftists are guilty of trying to monitor Christian churches for invented charges while hundreds of Mosques preach the destruction of this country while in the country and the dangerous Bummer does nothing except let them expand and recruit for their madness. The Constitution is a document that the left hates especially the Amendments where specific freedoms are outlined like the 1st Amendment the left wants suspended. This type of leftist drivel is not unexpected these days and their leader Bummer is their anti-American values hero.
Perfect response Justice! I would expect no less.
Oh, and thanks for proving my preceding comment!
Peace out.
Hey Justice! The National Joke is your “P i m p” Ronald Reagan. You know, the guy that: Tripled the National Debt, sold Missiles to Shiites in Iran, sold Chemical Weapons to Saddam in Iraq, gave Weapons to Islamist fighters in Afghanistan (later known as the Taliban and Al Qaeda), had to say he was sorry on National TV for selling weapons to Islamic States, did nothing when HIV invaded America for six years, tucked tail and ran after a truck bombing in Beirut blew 241 GI’s to pieces, raised Taxes Eleven times, and had TWELVE of his own GOP Cabinet prostitutes convicted of bribes, conspiracy, perjury, obstruction of justice, withholding evidence and misappropriation of funds with the Worst prostitute being Cape Weinberger who was Reagan’s Secretary of State! Here is the list:
James G. Watt (R) Secretary of the Interior,
Deborah Gore Dean, (R) Executive Assistant of HUD,
Phillip D. Winn (R) Assistant Secretary of HUD,
Thomas Demery, (R) Assistant Secretary of HUD,
Joseph A. Strauss, (R) Special Assistant to the Secretary of HUD,
Caspar Weinberger (R) Secretary of Defense,
Robert C. McFarlane (R) National Security Adviser,
John Poindexter (R) National Security Advisor,
Oliver North (R) Member of the National Security Council,
Elliott Abrams (R) Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs,
Michael Deaver (R) White House Deputy Chief of Staff to Ronald Reagan,
Rita Lavelle (R), assistant EPA Administrator
Feel embarrassed yet with your Ebola scare rants yet.
Wow lets see when clueless, blame Reagan, no Bush, No Reagan, No Bush. Lies are lies but they have to try.
The Bummer makes Carter look good and the list of felony Dems is by far triple the list of anyone else as is well known from the last time you put out this old list. Bummer is on a course to beat them all with scandals and felons.
the worst thing Ronnie and daddy Bush did was selling crack cocaine to the Crips who ran it all over America.
Oliver North to the rap but he was a CIA dude.
Justice, bold talk for a spineless moron. Then name a Democratic President that had a Cabinet Member convicted of a crime.
Rock,
The guy that makes things up shouldn’t name call! Or shouldn’t throw stones at anyone as you’ve been proven to outright make stuff up and thus has no credibility.
And before you go on one of your rants, furnish the proof, the proof, to your claim that there were all these stories on Fox & Forbes that Congress has no impact on economic data. You said it, now back it up, or zip it! Cause otherwise, what you say has zilch! credibility.
Parker. Just because YOU can’t or refuse to use a search engine is your own problem.
When the Administration installs criminals in the Justice Dept, the IRS, the State Dept, and the same party controls the senate, it’s pretty hard to get a real investigation, let alone a conviction.
Please.
Hey Justice, so you want a more GOP P i m p s and prostitutes to evaluate. Great!
Bush Crooks:
Catalina Villalpando, (R) Treasurer of the United States, guilty of obstruction of justice and tax evasion,
Steve Grilles, Deputy Secretary at the Interior Department, guilty of of obstruction of justice,
David Safavian, Chief of Staff in the United States General Services Administration, guilty of lying to the US Senate,
Scooter Libby, Chief of Staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, guilty of perjury and obstruction of justice.
Dogula, that must explain George W not being investigated for crimes against the US. Remember, he had SIX years of his “same” party controlling BOTH houses of Congress!
Dog, you are in way over your head here. But, for nostalgic sake, what was the 3/5ths clause about in Article 1, Section 2, Paragraph 3 of the United States Constitution about again…
Rock,
Journalists, which you’re clearly not, get fired for making stuff up like you did. And English students get an F. According to your standards, I could say, “The Obama Admin. admitted that their failures caused the Ebola outbreak. MSNBC did a story on it.” I know it’s a fact. Go verify it yourself.
Ralph Cramden showed you how to cite a source when he corrected you on the Surgeon General vacancy.
And go to the website Progressive Review. Plug in Clinton Admin., year 2000. The name Progressive Review is not a misnomer. It’s a far left website. Says the Clinton Admin. most corrupt in recent times.
Now stop making stuff up and there’s a chance you may earn some credibility back?!
Or earn some back now: Put up or Shut up!
Parker. Clearly you are full of yourself and have no clue how to do any actual research on the internet.
Your cherry picked web site source is erroneous and full of double talk. What do you expect when the site states “A reader computes” because evidently the site can’t do the research. Also, it is mainly related to the Ken Starr Whitewater investigation which was related to a land deal in the 1970’s and 1980’s.
Your web site lists ZERO (0) Clinton Presidential Cabinet members convicted.
Your web site lists “Number of individuals and businesses associated with” but NOT Actual Cabinet Members of a President’s Administration.
Your list clearly misses the Twelve Reagan Cabinet Members I have listed and says “who came under criminal investigation: 4” which is false and can be easily checked with a quick internet search.
Your list completely ignores Nixon and Watergate.
If the game now is to include individuals and business contacts that were only indicted and not actually convicted to the list of GOP Prostitutes from before a President is Elected, that would expand the universe exponentially. And guess what, your web site says…
“America in the Reagan Years: By the end of his term, 138 administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations. In terms of number of officials involved, the record of his [Reagan] administration was the worst ever.”
And Parker strikes out again.
You see this is how it works Parker. Take the name James G Watt and type it in that little line on your browser called the search bar and see for yourself that he was charged with 25 counts of perjury and obstruction of justice and given 5 year probation and a $5000 fine.
Ralph corrected NOTHING, AynRand Paul put a hold on the nomination and Ralph already admitted that.
How exactly do YOU propose to shut me up exactly?
OMYGOD IT’S AN EPIDEMIC!!!! First inJustice contracted Obola, then Dogula, now Parker. I’m thinking they may have gotten it from having unprotected text with CJ…but I could be wrong. They could be carriers.
Poor Rock,
I produce actual evidence to back up what I say, and you make stuff up! Period!!
(Hmmm in case you couldn’t tell, I was giving Rock an example of how silly someone looks when they just pull stuff out of thin air!)
Disagree with the source I generated. Fine. It’s an actual source! And did it mention how Clinton was disbarred?
Anyway, you regularly prove you don’t actually read either. Ralph generated a source, (a source, get it?) that proved the continuing hold up with no Surgeon General is with Reid and Obama. Proving you wrong.
I proved you wrong when you still fail to generate a source (a source, get it?) for your claim that there were all these stories on Fox & Forbes about how Congress has no impact on the economy. Cause you made it up! Period!
You’re free to keep babbling. But because you’ve been proven to make stuff up, outright, you have no credibility.
Rock,
Really? I corrected nothing? I told you the Senate Majority leader, Harry Reid (D) NV, on direct orders from the WH put the brakes on the Murthy nomination for Surgeon General because too many Democrat “Red State” Senators were worried about that sensitive vote in an election year and frankly, even with a majority in the Senate, it was fairly obvious that Murthy was going to lose. Rand Paul, and all the other Republicans put together could do NOTHING to stop Murthy’s confirmation, it was stopped by the WH. Senator Paul’s objection amounted to nothing more than a minor detour, easily overcome with a simple majority cloture vote, now, thanks to the change in Senate rules by Reid, (“Nuclear Option”) no longer requiring a 3/5 majority (60 votes).
http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/federal_government/rand-paul-adds-hurdle-for-surgeon-general-confirmation/2014/02/26/db9cb346-9f22-11e3-b8d8-94577ff66b28_story.html
Dude, you suck at truth.
So much fail in this thread…
Rock clearly demonstrated that the source is unreliable.
A bad source is sometimes worse than no source.
Parker. You can bite me and go play with your Flightsuit Bush dolls.
You produced nothing more then opinionated hot air.
The only thing that is more pathetic then your useless keystrokes is your useless ignorance.
Ralph says From this website titled Barton Prepped for Ebola Patients – “It is true that Rand Paul did place a hold on Murthy”
Define Senate Hold – In the United States Senate, a hold is a parliamentary procedure permitted by the Standing Rules of the United States Senate which allows one or more Senators to prevent a motion from reaching a vote on the Senate floor.
Dude back at you.
‘go play with your Flightsuit Bush dolls.
hahahahaha
i am looking to trade my unopened, mint condition set of Flightsuit, Brush Clearing, and Internet Tubes Speach dolls, for one rare Yale Frat Party doll.
Well, gosh, regarding the fact that we haven’t had an actual Surgeon General, I’d imagine that in that many months, if Mr. obama had actually WANTED one, he could have come up with SOMEBODY in the country who he could have nominated that would have been acceptable. But that would have meant taking time away from golf and campaigning. And besides, every. single. appointment. in this Administration is about politics, not about actually having a qualified candidate in an appropriate job.
@Dog-“…those of us who remember what ‘truth, justice, and the American way’ were…” (WTF?) I remember what they were. They were a line from a comic book, describing a fictional character in a fictional America. Glorifying a fictional illegal alien who breaks the fictional law to administer vigilante justice while taking a job away from a hardworking REAL American citizen. HAH!
But seriously…those concepts have always represented different things to, and for, different people depending on their social status, economic status, race and gender. Anyone who believes otherwise is living in a fantasy.
Rock,
Did you actually read the WaPo piece? The Paul hold on Murthy amounted to a “speed bump”. If Obama and Reid thought they had the votes they would have brought the nomination to the floor, but after whipping the vote count on THEIR side of the aisle they knew they would lose, so they put their OWN hold on the Murthy nomination to avoid an embarrassing vote for their own Senators and subsequent loss.
Hey, I watched Superman on tv when I was a little kid. I’m well aware of where the line originated.
But I think you’re wrong about it ‘always’ having meant something different depending on race, gender, etc.
I think that long ago, pretty much everybody believed this was the land of opportunity and if you worked hard and lived in an upstanding way, anybody could prosper. Why else have SO many people from so many different lands wanted to come HERE to try to better their lives, instead of staying in their own countries?
it’s only recently that we have become a nation of “victims” and each demographic has its own tale of woe and oppression. That’s what leftist policy creates.
Rock,
You get caught outright making stuff up, and yet have the audacity to personally attack others?! Well your defensiveness illustrates your embarrassment at getting caught.
But just when you are giving a source like Ralph C. did for you, should read & comprehend it properly.
Well, as the “ebola is gonna get you” fear mongering has been moved to page two it seems mr injustice has been spanked and gone to bed without supper(or crawled back under his rock). I wonder whats next on the list for foxnoisenothing fear inducing topics for their bimbos to share with the world. I like the whole bush doll thing, christmas is coming…
Dogula-Your ‘thinking’ of ‘what pretty much everyone believed’ is as valid as a fart in a hurricane. Are you suggesting the immigrating child of an aristocrat is arriving the same America(field of opportunities and options) as starving Irish peasants and the African women kidnapped from her village. How naive.
The opportunities are ALWAYS going to be different for different people. But opportunities always did exist.
Are you saying that in your utopian socialist world, there won’t be different opportunities for the children of the politically connected from those of the farmer? Please. My family did come over as ‘starving Irish’ slaves, in the 1600’s, actually. Look it up. they existed. And we prospered.
“The real democratic American idea is, not that every man shall be on a level with every other man, but that every man shall have liberty to be what God made him, without hindrance.”
-Henry Ward Beecher
@Dog-As I have said before, I think you are insane.
“When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.”
-Socrates
opinions aren’t slander
Parker you are a complete moron and if you actually read YOUR link you would know that. This is the last time I am not going to do your work and vet your worthless link…
a. Still NOT ONE actual Democratic Presidential Cabinet Member convicted and named in your link.
b. Jerry Sepers is nameed as a “Journalist,” and he investigated the suicide of Vince Foster and implied it was a murder to which Ken Starr debunked.
c. The other sources: Ambrose Evens-Pritchard, Chris Ruddy, Roger Morris, Sally Denton and Sam Smith are all fiction writers.

List of Democratic Presidential Executive Branch Convicts since 1914:
(none)
You and Ralph are pathetic CONvict lovers and if you want to have fornication with each other or separately, I am not going to get in the way.
Rock–what the score would be if you added the Legislative Branch and Judicial Branch? Just curious….
All you’re proving is that Republicans are at least willing to prosecute their criminals, while the Dems hide and protect theirs.
Tahoser, adding the Legislative and Judicial branches would broaden the net for sure because those bodies are independent from a Presidents Cabinets. Legislative Branch is elected by the various States. With the Judicial Branch you would have to examine the actual Judges Political bent, who or how they were appointed and how far down the chain ie Supreme Court, Appeals, Districts, etc. I am sure the data is out there somewhere. Sounds like a web site project.
Sure Dog, that is why so many of the GOP Cabinet CONvicts had to be pardoned for their crimes and why Nixon fired so many Prosecutors. LOL! How’s that slavery in the Constitution working for ya? Oh, that’s right you don’t answer questions.
Rock,
If you were so confident in your views you wouldn’t need to immaturely name call, and you wouldn’t need to outright make stuff up. I caught you doing it. Period!
I don’t make things up, you do. That means I have credibility, you do not. Period!
Instead of throwing tantrums, call and complain to your high school, and/or college English teacher/s who failed you on the topic of sourcing. You can’t generate it, that means it doesn’t exist, and it makes everything and anything else you proclaim as a ‘fact’ questionable.
Ralph Cramden also proved you incorrect by how? Giving you the source of information.
And with your response then of doubling down on the tantrums, Dogula, whom I don’t always agree with, does have a great quote. (And he even cites the source
‘That means I have credibility, you do not.’
Easy there, don’t get too excited. From my experience your credibility is very questionable.
You must have missed my reply to you rehashing the climate change thing…. the source you cited was bogus. Really bad.
” call and complain to your high school, and/or college English teacher/s who failed you on the topic of sourcing.”
Seriously? How many absolute garbage sources have you cited about climate change? I lost count, but every one you have cited is rubbish.
You are really not in any place to act as judge on this topic.
Bush/Cheney are war criminals. No matter how you slice it.
Hmmmm. Bush/Cheney are war criminals. but obama with his drones indiscriminately killing innocent children is not? Yeah, he deserves that Nobel Peace Prize.
Can’t you even PRETEND to be consistent???
Cosa,
For the record, when I engaged in the Climate Debate, you asked me to furnish a scientist. I did! You questioned the integrity of that scientist, so I furnished another. And commented/asked how many pro-climate change scientists are dependent on govt. funding? And thus should have their integrity questioned because their incomes are reliant on proving Climate Change.
That was when you questioned my sourcing, and recently you stated that you must have slipped or gotten sidetracked in not looking into the 2nd scientist I put forth.
But ok, guess what. I cited a source. A basis for what I put forth! So what I stated could be scrutinized! You felt the scientist wasn’t legit. Fine! I put forth sources where I got my information. Didn’t pull it out of thin air. Big difference!!
We can have a debate on this blog when it’s stated, ‘I believe X, and here’s my basis for it.’ But to just outright make up and declare it as a fact, gets one fired as a journalist, an F in class, but it is a great way to convince oneself you have superior knowledge, cause you get to create your own reality.
Parker. You are done here. You caught nothing except the whiff of gas escaping from your lower digestive system and the only thing made up is the diatribe of excrement from your mind.
Ralph admitted who put the hold on Dr. Murthy. The question is why did AynRand Paul put a hold on Dr. Murthy anyway… because AynRand and his ilk choose to protect the NRA rather then kids getting their heads blown off in America.
Rock,
If you wouldn’t name call, and act so immature, I’d let you get away with making stuff up! Show me where there’s ever been a story on Forbes or Fox that Congress has no impact on economic data, like you stated! Otherwise, you’re just someone who makes stuff up.
Or maybe you just didn’t read something correctly, just like you didn’t with the story Ralph C. cited. (See, he cited his source.) The story that clearly states the current hold up is with Reid and Obama.
But instead of childish name calling, be mature, and cite your source!
Rock,
What is with you? You insist on perpetuating this absurd myth that Rand Paul’s hold/objection to Murthy’s nomination had anything to do with Harry Reid failing to bring the confirmation vote to the Senate floor, which HE just happens to control. Everyone here knows that is not the truth, yet you keep flogging that dead horse. Give it up. This is not rational behavior.
Parker. Here are your clues AGAIN… FOR THE LAST TIME… learn to use a search engine… copy and paste!
“Economy does better under democratic presidents”
“Princeton”
“Alan Blinder”
“Mark Watson”
In pdf file you will need to use the little things that look like binoculars to search for…
“2.2 Congress”
“4.2”
Now go be productive or something by passing gas.
Ralph. This is getting boring. Refer to my copy and paste from above of what you wrote dated October 21, 2014. Oh, I get it… now you deny it… typical CONvict.
The only thing getting absurd is your ignorance.
You really can’t type “rand paul puts hold on murthy” in a search engine?
Go play with Parker and your Bush Flightsuit dolls now.
’cause you get to create your own reality.’
You know that is 100% BS.
You continually fall for rubbish ‘science’. Scientists who have retracted their work. A simple background check by you, the person responsible for finding good sources, would have revealed that.
bad information and misinformation are often worse than no information. And when it comes to science, your information is terrible.
Your track record is really bad.
And your punctuation sucks.
Cosa,
I furnished the sources. One you said wasn’t legitimate, one you didn’t correct. And you never sourced who said the scientist wasn’t legitimate nor answered about the confict of interest with all pro-human caused climate change scientists receiving govt. based on their climate change scenario.
But it is nice of you to stick for and try & help poor Rock! Rock, the guy the makes personal atacks and changes the subject because he lost his credibility when caught outright making something up!
We’re not talking a Princeton study. Where, gee, there you’re willing to cite a source. We’re talking your claim about Congress not having an impact on the economy per reports on Fox & Forbes. Where gee, you’re not willing to cite your source, cause you made it up! Thus losing your credibility! And childish rants towards me does not change that fact. Period!
You’ll cite some other sources, but not that one. Why? Because it doesn’t exist! So your rants don’t change the facts that you blatantly disregard and create out of thin air ‘information’. Thus proving that you don’t have genuine confidence in your own biases.
Parker. Time is up, List of Republican Presidential Executive Branch CONvicts since 1914 33, I found Three more:
Alan D. Fiers, Jr, Chief of the Central Intelligence Agency’s Central American under Reagan, guilty on two counts of withholding information from the Congress.
Clair E. George, Deputy Director of CIA Operations under Reagan, guilty on two counts of false statements to the Congress.
Duane R. Clarridge, Chief of European CIA under Reagan, Pardoned before trial of seven counts of perjury and false statements about a secret shipment of U.S. HAWK missiles to Iran.
List of Democratic Presidential Executive Branch Convicts since 1914: Zero.
Clearly YOU are dishonest about your attempt to find the Princeton Report (I got 15,000,000 Search hits in .45 seconds with 100’s of news outlets referencing the Report using the search listed in my previous post above) that clearly states on section 2.2 Congress:
“Table 5 displays average GDP growth rates when the Democratic Party controls both houses of Congress, when control of the two houses is split (regardless of which party controls which house), and when the Republican Party controls both houses. We see that the average growth rate is highest when Democrats control Congress (3.47%), but the difference with Republican control (3.36%) is trivial.
Apparently, it’s the president, not Congress, who matters.”
Gosh a dishonest GOP Troll… how cliche’.
Sorry. It’s been nice playing with you. We have some Mission Accomplish bumper stickers and Newt for President buttons as parting gifts for you.
Rock,
Time is up. You’ve been caught making stuff up out of thin air! Not just with your false baloney Congress/Fox/Forbes stories, (that’s where you said there were all these stories about Congress having no economic impact.) but with claiming to know what I was saying in ’92, with claiming to know what my income status is…..
Any and all things you state thus have no credibility or believability!
You said Rock,
There were all these stories on ‘Fox & Forbes’ about how Congress has no economic impact. On Fox & Forbes!
This Princeton study I may analyze. Does it take into account the slower Defense Spending, and thus slower economic growth, of the Nixon/Ford Admin. when they had to wind down Johnson’s Vietnam War? Or how, while from ’83-’88 there was strong growth, Pres. Reagan, during his first two years, had to deal with the double digit inflation he inherited from Jimmy Carter?
Maybe it does, or does not? Always worth seeing someone’s analysis of a study!
However, you said there were all these stories on ‘Fox & Forbes’ (implying I guess their support of such analysis). You have never produced or backed up this claim at all! Ever!
Just like you made up: what you thought my income status was, what I was saying in ’92 (17 yrs. before this blog even existed? Weird?) you made up these Fox & Forbes stories.
Since you’ve now been proven to outright make stuff up, multiple times, any & all things you state are to be discounted. That’s not just a journalistic standard, that is a basic High School English standard. And it’s a standard that name calling doesn’t alter!
Parker. I can’t fix your stupidity and the only thing you have caught is the scent of your foul dishonest air. Have a nice day.
Rock,
Was just trying to teach you the basic writing ethics that your high school English teachers failed to do. And how to move beyond the childish name calling that all of your teachers should’ve done for you.
Hopefully you’ll develop more mature communication skills over time. Good Luck.
And if you would dig deeper into the Princeton study you like to cite, (See in certain instances you do like to cite specific sources. Of course still waiting for one of these many Fox/Forbes stories/studies you said existed?) you would see that yes it is in depth and analytical in certain ways. But it has its flaws that can be explained by the fact that it’s author has worked for: The Clinton Admin., The Obama Admin., and been an advisor to Al Gore and John Kerry when they for Pres. So gee, do you think it’s going to be a pro-Democratic study?
“one you didn’t correct.”
You missed my recent post on an older article. Understandable.
And I am sure I supplied a reason why they are untrustworthy and used an outside source. That is what I do. You are 0/3 or 0/4.
And you fell for that Pipe Club pseudoscience.
I have no idea what you guys are talking about and I should just shut up. However, you are trying to play the role of a person who is well informed and values good sources. You failed miserably in enough other areas, people should be aware of that, and honestly you need to get knocked down a few pegs here.
Cosa,
You use ‘That is what I do.’ proclamation and state someone else needs to get knocked down a few pegs?! Wow.
For the record you’ve never once, not once, accurately pointed out my not using a legitimate source!
You one time proclaimed that a scientist I cited, a Ph.D., wasn’t legitimate because that scientist, you said, was getting funded by the oil industry. You didn’t question a 2nd scientist I cited as a source, (and as I said previously maybe you got sidetracked and just didn’t get the chance to research it). Nor questioned the conflict of interest of many pro-climate change scientists.
So I’m 0 for 0 at the minimum with you!
You missed the follow up post on the old thread.
Here is my source that exposes your source as BS.
https://www.skepticalscience.com/even-princeton-makes-mistakes.html
And there there was the previous one that I remember well because it was so hilariously poor. The female scientist who later retracted everything (long before you used it). I think they also had ties to oil money.
There was one before that, it might have been something directly tied to Heartland or Watts.
0/3.
it seems our president is speaking with a forked tongue. he is saying there is no medical reason to quarenteen medical professionals who are handling ebola patients overseas, yet the military is doing that in italy to personnel who only setup camps and did not interact with patients. Why are doing this to military personnel if there in no fear at all, because it is still a small chance.
The White House is making it up as they go.
They are clueless, but still won’t listen to real professionals.
Gross arrogance.
‘They are clueless, but still won’t listen to real professionals.’
“real” professionals being… epidemiologists?
For those of you who are pationate posters regarding Ebola, I suggest you read Hot Zone, by Douglas Preston. I read this quite some time ago… It’s one of the only non-fiction stories Preston wrote. It will make you think a little deeper….
Whoops! Sorry, the Hot Zone it’s by Richard Preston. Both he and his brother are both authors…
Check it out you Ebola posters!
Cosa,
I generated sources that at the time, you simply named called, and one you didn’t even bother refute. Period!
And of course the original point is, I generated a source, Phd’s., nonetheless. If they’re illegitimate contact the universities that gave them their science degrees. (Maybe their PhD’s are not as legitimate as yours?)
Bottomline, I didn’t pull something out of thin air!
Dog, not sure what you are referring to since virtually all infectious disease experts (and those especially expert on Ebola) have all agreed, the Ebola scare in the U.S. is a media and political driven issue, not something born out of facts. 20,000 or so folks die each year (some years more) from influenza – so the real question is have you had a flu shot, or are you going to beat a drum for something that is not a real danger to U.S. citizens on our soil (even with the private hospital screwing up – only two nursers who administered health care to a dying man got the disease and recovered. Pretty much everyone that might have exposed has proved not to have the illness. Wow, only a not terribly informed individual would think there is any there there.
Rick
Parker, Dogula and the rest of the willfully ignorant,
https://soundcloud.com/rockymountainmike
Please scroll down to the picture of bully/punk Christie and give a listen. Pretty much humorously sums it up for me.
‘Scuse me? I never said anything about ebola, only about the Administration’s handling of it. They keep changing the rules (excuse me, “protocols”) every other day. Hence, they make it up as they go along.
And, yeah, I get a flu shot every year. I don’t know why you insist on being so patronizing.
Dog, sadly you continue to show your ignorance. You didn’t mention Ebola but you are talking about protocols related to Ebola – can we say double speak. I doubt you have read the various protocols (as I have friends who teach medical students in Liberia and have long understood the science of Ebola) and the adaptations that the CDC has made based in part on the private sector failing in their responsibility and in governors reacting stupidly to deal with a scare that was largely media driven. So yes, the CDC acted responsibly to make suitable adjustments – that is exactly what you want. Political hacks say ah ha, informed people are happy that experts are at the helm and adjusting protocols as need be. Only very poorly informed and educated folks stand pat, because no matter how well someone responds to a circumstance, there is always ways to improve on what was done. One should never be satisfied with ones job – the perfectionist looks to improve. That is what Hall of Fame athlete’s do, top level scientist, CEO’s etc. I personally will never hire a scientist (I have 25 or so working for me) who does not think deeply about how to constantly improve their product. The CDC should be ever vigilant and do the same – that is good science and good policy; not a failure as you would suggest.
Rick
The private sector has succeeded FAR beyond what governments have : Firestone, Liberia. Look up how they stopped it in its tracks using low tech, tried and true methods.
Oh, and then there’s this, which might cause you to have a conniption fit. And it’s from Slate, so you can’t accuse me of using a crazy right wing source. http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2014/10/24/dick_cheney_drugs_and_bioweapons_ebola_research_funding_unlikely_source.html

“and one you didn’t even bother refute.”
I just did. Again. The unreliability of your sources are independent of my knowledge of them. You consistently cite rubbish sources. I don’t know what to tell you, but you should be aware of that, and rethink where you are getting your information. If its coming from a few blogs you should turn around and question them as well. If I find out that a website has published bad information and not retracted it or acknowledged it, I am done with them for ever. The lack of acknowledgement on your part is very telling. So you had bad information, no big deal, now you are rid of that information and can move on. It is interesting how many ‘skeptics’ are not skeptical enough to over come their confirmation bias.
Feel free to find another ‘skeptic’ source. I can think of two recent ones that you are likely to go to. And yes, they are rubbish.
Speaking of confirmation bias, what’s up dawg.
Looks like Rick took her to the pound this time.
Go order the book on Amazon! The Hot Zone, by Richard Preston… I would bet your postings may be a bit more mindful.
Cosa,
Years ago you did not refute anything! You name called one, without specifics, and didn’t refute another. That was how many years ago?
If you now, years later, have specifics, congrats. So I’ll say this again, at that time I cited multiple sources. Cited where I got my info., (now read this carefully) so it could be critiqued! Info. from PhD’s., and I guess your PhD. comes from a better university than theirs?
Anyway, I cited at that time where I got my info. I didn’t pull something out of thin air. If you’re now telling me every single PhD. in scientific fields now supports human caused/climate change, great. Or any and all who don’t have been refuted, they’ve all been proven to be on the take, well I stand corrected!
Years ago, on that story, when I stated something, I backed up where I got it. You name called one source at that time, and then didn’t comment on the other.
Now in commenting on current 2014 LTN articles, someone shouldn’t make something up out of thin air. They should at least id their source of info!
Parker the moron.
You had better get a book, take a class or hire a 3rd grader to help you with searching the internet.
I know you will deny that you can’t find this but that just confirms your idiocy…
“democratic presidents better for economy forbes”
And “YOU” want to argue with the Princeton Report now? NOW? Humm, an anonymous blogger with no actual data, facts or formulas versus actual Princeton Economists… which one to choose… “chime” and Princeton is the winner!
Still helping Justice with his Ebola scare tactics are we? You know, Africa, Ebola, President Obama… Really? The only people that have contracted Ebola in America where two Nurses from Texas that had direct contact with Duncan. Even the close relatives and Fiancee of Duncan did not get Ebola. Nigeria is now Ebola free. Even in Maine a Judge has refused to arrest Nurse Hicks. Justice and some “news sources” have turned Ebola into a “War of the Worlds” ginned up scare tactic. For the record, I am not scared.
Since 3rd Quarter GDP is up 3.5% and the Stock Market hit new highs again Friday, perhaps you better go back to the “birth certificate” scare again.
Rock The Fabricator!
When did I EVER mention the birth certificate issue? EVER? Where did I EVER say we should be frightened by Ebola, or ever critique Obama on it? Where?
You keep making stuff up! (That was only a sampling.) And if you’d actually read what I say: Yes, the wealthy are getting wealthier in this Obama Economy. Too bad no one, esp. Democrats care about the lower 50% of incomes who are not. The Princeton Study you cite was authored by a Democratic operative (enough said), and then the ultimate fabrication of yours: that there were all these studies about Congress having no impact on the economy that both Fox & Forbes reporting on…
Where are they? Rock, if you’re so confident in your views you shouldn’t feel the need to make up all this stuff out of thin air!
Parker. Newsflash! The wealthy have been getting wealthier since 1981! During the 1970’s and in 1980 60% of Americans Households were considered Middle Class; by the year 1993 that percentage had dropped to 50%. During the same period the Upper Class had grown from 30% to 40%. How is it that everyone seems to know this but you.
Anybody but you can find this information on that internet contraption.
The Two Economists YOU are trying to TRASH are from PRINCETON UNIVERSITY, ONE OF THE TOP UNIVERSITIES IN THE NATION, AND YOU ARE A NOBODY FROM A BLOG WITH NO CREDENTIALS. GET IT!
No, you don’t and never will because you are narcissistic.
Fabricate that Parker.
Under Reagan the wealth gap widened. BUT contrary to now, lower incomes also saw their incomes increase.
Besides making stuff up, I forgot to mention that if you had true confidence in your views, you wouldn’t engage in childish name calling!
But great, you cite a source that exists. That Princeton/Democratic operative study. But why won’t you cite where all these Fox/Forbes stories are? Cause you fabricated it!
I can just as well say, ‘Obama is causing Ebola spread in West Africa’. They said so on MSNBC! Look it up yourself!
Parker. Just because YOU can’t see or find gravity does not mean it does not exist… moron.
Hey Sherlock, the lower income class was 10% in 1980 and it is 9% now, while the upper class is now at 46% and the Middle Class is 45%. And you still believe Reagan’s Trickle Down Voodoo… It is what we have been living under since 1981.
And your “look up” to Obama is causing Ebola is utter nonsense about as worthless as teats on a boar. Senegal and Nigeria are Ebola free now. Mali has one (1) patient. Spain has one (1) patient. Where is the panic here in America now? Gone.
Fabricate that.
Parker, Forbes is not the gospel. Just because it doesn’t exit in Forbes, doesn’t mean the data doesn’t exist, or any other data can also support their position.
You are making a fool of yourself again.
“Years ago you did not refute anything! ”
I didn’t see it. I don’t need to read it for it to be a rubbish source. All of your sources have been rubbish. For example, the one that completely retracted everything they published, long before you used it.
That is pathetic.
Also, you cited the person who is torn to shreds in this article: https://www.skepticalscience.com/even-princeton-makes-mistakes.html .
And I am pretty sure the other one was tied to Heartland, or Watts, or some other disinformation.
Go ahead, try again.
Get off your pygmy pony.
How many posts do we have to go back to find you using numbers to support your position? Your position hinges on quantifiable information. What % of the time do you even use numbers?
Do you see a problem there?
I dare you to post another ‘skeptic’ source. Just for fun.
Cosa,
You’re absolutely correct! Seriously! It is not the gospel. You’ve come in late and missed the point!
On a previous LTN story Rock made a claim that there were all these studies that showed Congress had no economic impact. And it was Fox News and Forbes that reported it. His claim!
I called baloney on the story where he claimed it. And when he goes on his personal attacks like he did on this story, I call him out again.
He made other stuff up, but this is the most blatant. Rock claimed it, and has never yet backed it up! That’s the point. And at the very least he shouldn’t go making personal attacks on others, whatever the story, when he so blatantly tried, but has failed, to create a falsehood.
And as far an at least over 3yr. old climate story, again at the time, at the time, one you name called and one you didn’t question. If you’re saying your Phd. is better than theirs, or that now years later, every single Dr. of Science buys into the Human Caused/Climate Change story, and has no financial conflict of interest in doing so (gets research grant money that is reliant on there being a belief in the Human Caused/Climate Change Narrative) then I stand corrected!
You are proof that there is no functional difference between being uninformed and misinformed.
This is the much larger problem with you:
“How many posts do we have to go back to find you using numbers to support your position? Your position hinges on quantifiable information. What % of the time do you even use numbers?”
AMERICA IS EBOLA FREE. Dr. Craig Spencer was released and he was the last Ebola patient in America. Only two people contracted Ebola in America and only one person died; all in Texas. Nurse Hickox, of New Jersey and Maine fame, does not have Ebola and is moving to Southern Maine.
The Ebola Hoax is over, you can come out of your bunkers now.
