    It was never about the cut and paste,atleast not with me.

    Creating an internet "bulletin board" to cut and paste without offering any opinion or dialogue isnt the idea behind any forum.

    Express an opinion and provide a link if you want but if you feel passionate enough about a particular issue to cut and paste just create a thread about it and state your opinion so we can discuss it rather than free advertising for the heritage foundation,fox news or the nra ,moveon or whoever else you can think of.

    Although it is never enough for some on here to discuss an issue rationally because even after the issue is exhausted the cut and paste gang ignore the conversation and continue to pollute the board with their advertisments for their views rather than discussing them which then leads to the personal attacks and all that goes with it.

    In some cases, it is much better to get the article without the posters added opinion.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

        Why post old news??

        My opinion is if you agree with the article, why expound more?

        I can see if you disagree the adding of commentary, but the posting of something without adding more comment usually means you agree with what was written and posted.

          Dan,

          How do you live with the Palin articles then? The millions? of Bush/Cheney/Halliburton/etc threads for eight years.

          That was fine until now?

          Consider the timing.

            Dan, your political bigotry, as well as Heck's, hurts the board.

            You are justifying the continued duplicate threads because you rationalize them

            in terms of your partisanship.

            Cheney doesn't HAVE to be quiet.

            Gore didn't.

            Carter never has.

            I don't care that Al IS a mod, you shouldn't be so judgemental and critical about

            anybody being partisan, when

            you can be as partisan, as well as Heck.

            But ridiculing somebody because they don't see politics like you do

            is childish and uncalled for.

            Partisanship is in the eye of the beholder.

            But being outraged that Cheney has opinions is

            making you look foolish.

              So is your politically expedient outrage.

              You won't find fault with other libs no matter what.

              But you'll argue and find fault with non-liberals no matter what.

              But you want some serious discussion.

              Liberal politics is so often an emotional rollercoaster.

              Love/hate/love/hate/love/hate........ oi.

                                    Josh Green's Atlantic piece on Hillary and then the follow-up on the fall of the Hillary campaign.

                                    This National Geographic article is a bit frightening, and won an award for science reporting.

                                    I always liked this old New Yorker piece on "The American Religion".

                                        U.S. Inflation to Approach Zimbabwe Level, Faber Says

                                        May 27 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. economy will enter “hyperinflation” approaching the levels in Zimbabwe because the Federal Reserve will be reluctant to raise interest rates, investor Marc Faber said.

                                        Prices may increase at rates “close to” Zimbabwe’s gains, Faber said in an interview with Bloomberg Television in Hong Kong. Zimbabwe’s inflation rate reached 231 million percent in July, the last annual rate published by the statistics office.

                                        “I am 100 percent sure that the U.S. will go into hyperinflation,” Faber said. “The problem with government debt growing so much is that when the time will come and the Fed should increase interest rates, they will be very reluctant to do so and so inflation will start to accelerate.”
