The mobile version of LGF now has a button that lets you switch to the desktop version if you wanna. And of course, you can switch back to the mobile version too.

That’s got to be a parody account.

I’d hope but it is really hard to tell, at least for my meter.

I just had a strange thought. I wonder what would have happened if the entire CNN staff were on Malaysia Airlines Flight #370 when it went missing?

Is that like the start of a media black hole or something?

All I know is that they would have called off the search long ago, if they even had one.

Hezbollah: Danger to Syria’s President Eliminated

The leader of Lebanon’s militant Hezbollah group says that the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad is no longer in danger of falling.

Hassan Nasrallah said in interview with Lebanon’s daily As-Safir newspaper that the danger of the Syrian government’s “fall has ended.” Excerpts of the interview were published Sunday by Lebanon’s official National News Agency

I saw a UN report last week estimating that the Syrian war could continue for about 30 years.

At what point is Russia back to the U.S.S.R. condition?

Description:
On Fox News Sunday, former head of the CIA, Michael Hayden, claimed that a statement made by Senator Diane Feinstein on the CIA’s torture program made her “too emotionally unstable” to render an objective decision.

On the map, Donetsk, Luhansk and Kharkiv, combined with the entire Crimea region, form a rather orderly arc of points extending westward from Russia, into Ukraine. It looks to me that the Russian actions in the 3 cities are centrally-coordinated, from Moscow of course. This is a very unfortunate development.

Absolutely. This isn’t just a few random guys out for a walk deciding to protest ,,,, in three different cities ,, at the same time,,,, with the same message

I’m thinking that maybe men should be more “lady like” in their outrage over torture (and many other civil rights injustices), not the other way around.

Russia is playing a danger game.
If it is ok for them to do this, why would China not go after things they want and need on the Russian borders with China. What goes around comes around seems to fit.

You know they (China) are watching the worlds response with keen interest. Problem is (imho) there are so many hot spots in the world today that none of them will invest much energy in the goings on in/ around the Ukraine to care, being consumed with their own turmoils (and rightfully so) instead

We were talking (commenting) about this on LGF, around 2 weeks ago I think. People came up with a few “invasions” and “occupations” in modern times. But there were very few examples, and if I recall, they either involved rather small areas (with all due respect to those areas) or they were in the aftermath of World War II., when there were major migrations of hundreds of millions of people all over the place.

Sure, we invaded Iraq, but we didn’t declare that we own part of it. When Iraq did just that with Kuwait in 1990, it wasn’t tolerated.

When I’m trying to say is the same point you made above, that what Russia is doing now sets a shocking precedent for modern times. It’s doubly unfortunate that it also manages to reanimate, however slightly for now, the Cold War.

There is something very wrong with any person, male or female, who does NOT get deeply, flagrantly emotional about the torture that the U. S. government did during the George W. Bush years.

That huge (6000 pages?) report done by the Senate really needs to be made public, immediately.

I admit I know basically nothing about all this, and how it may or may not have any usefulness in the work to keep our homeland secure. I might even entertain an idea like Alan Dershowitz’s, of “torture warrants” for use in unusual situations. I plead ignorance here. But one thing I feel on solid ground about: the American public needs to finally see that 6000-page report, with minimal redactions. This is far more important than anything that Snowden and Greenwald think (mistakenly) that the public should see.

Another cool feature in the mobile version now: if you tap the “Upload Image” button, you can upload an image straight from your smartphone’s camera, or choose an existing image from your Photos library.

Hard to quit going to a place I don’t go to but…

Enjoying an Awesome Blossom at Chili’s on Monday? Some of your money will be going toward anti-vaccination efforts.

On April 7, the restaurant chain will be donating 10 percent of customers’ checks to the National Autism Association in honor of National Autism Awareness month. On its website, the NAA claims that vaccinations can expedite autism in “some, if not many, children.”

Then too so many have the A-Bomb now, the governments do not have the money for standing armies so they will be more likely to use the bombs now days.

I would wager that JEB (John Ellis Bush, his name isn’t JEB) is waiting to see if the Christie thing blows up further and what kind of political shape he is in. One anointed “sane” one in the republican primaries may be one too many as it is.

W.E.B. Du Bois name wasn’t “WEB”. But I’ve never seen him called William Edward Burghardt Du Bois!!

The fact that Bush is being taken seriously after several years in the wilderness pretty well indicates the amount of damage that’s already been done to Christie. Yeah, he might recover somewhat, but now he’s damaged goods.

re: #42 sattv4u2

I’ve never seen him called J.E.B. just Jeb, which I didn’t know wasn’t his real name until not toooooo long ago. I pointed it out in case someone else didn’t know either, nothing nefarious.

I do hope and expect that the attitude of the European Union towards Russia will change drastically.

Of course, we all want to avoid an escalation that goes anywhere near nuclear weapons. But it’s possible (hopefully won’t happen) that the situation in Central Europe will start to feel like the situation with Israel and Iran, that the nuclear option isn’t totally unthinkable.

Leaving for a few hours. What an amazing news day!
