My agency is the worst. I get so bored from lack of business, I just go out to IJ all day and dislike the lefty comments. Then, I act like I’m someone else out here on IJ because I’m actually 12.
My agency is the best place to work. I let my girls have 1/2 hour lunch break EVERY DAY. They love working for me because I’m so smart and am the best boss around these parts. I know the insurance business like nobody’s business and my girls look up at with with awe in their eyes. I also treat everyone to a bang-up Christmas party at McDonald’s every Christmas, unless you’re Muslim. Then you stay back at the office and answer the phones.
So IJ monitor, how long are you going to permit boogereater to make a mockery out of every article, steal monikers to post his garbage? How about taking his posting permission away from him?
Isn’t this interesting making a mockery out of IJ. Imposters galore stealing monikers to post drivel. Planet, you and booger would be better served to post on Media Matters or Huffington Post so you can agree with fellow leftists. By the way, your President played 9 rounds of golf while the world is on fire and our journalist was beheaded in Iraq. He is such a caring guy, our President. I wonder how many times he has been in the situation room in the past year.
Cliven, It’s time to adjust the antenna on your head. You keep repeating yourself with senselessness and you are getting the rebound effect. Go down to the local Radio Shacks and pick one up, you probably could write it off too! After that, you should probably start reading a bit more rather than the oral history you Texicans are fond of. I would also recommend a bit less time with your police scanner and HAM Radio when you get home from your Evangelical Insurance Ministry, that maybe where part of your brain wave interference is originating form.
Planet, forgive me for not posting on this question yesterday. I was out of town at a meeting of one of our leading markets being recognized for production, retention etc. Gee, being in an inner circle group of about 6 other agents out of a couple hundred in the region makes me feel good about what we do. Despite what you and your other leftist friends have to say, we do an excellent job for our insureds and have good relationships with our carriers. Our employees also like working for us since we are good to them.
I agree, the comments section on IJ is nothing more than Booger posting garbage and acting like he is in kindergarten. It is not even worth coming here anymore.
Hi draetish! Welcome to the correct side of the argument which is my side. That is the reason I block posts from the left. Glad to have you aboard as long as your moniker is not a derivative of an Indian or Pakistani name. I am sick of curry and can not stand the sight of Vijay Singh. Golf is only for white people.
Draetish – it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure it out. As soon as Agent responds to one of our posts (within minutes,) our post is thumbed into oblivion and his has at least 26 likes. Besides he’s been accused by everyone and has never denied it. In fact, it was a post from txboogereatertx that told him how to do. Ever since then, it has been like this. We’re tired of it and are fighting back.
Like I said Libby – There are alot of people that read but don’t comment and they can use the Like or Dislike buttons. I haven’t posted on here in a long time, but I do read it everyday. Maybe I am the one that thumbs you leftist down because of your idiotic post. Boogereater is one of your minions and a true testament of the kind of followers you have. That is why “I” thumb all of you down, so get off your high horse and stop flattering yourself.
I guess you use your centipede thumbs to thumb Agent up in the 100’s, too. Not likely. And what does this have to do with me getting over myself? Agent is the one that needs to get over himself, thinking he can control who reads what on IJ. Stay out of it.
Sixteen posts to this article, and not one of them relate to the article in the least. The finger-pointing, immature posts, name-calling, etc. is ridiculous for a group of people that call themselves insurance professionals. I’ve sent e-mails to the IJ regarding some of the posts, particularly those that call names and make vulgar comments, but nothing is done. I’m unsubscribing to IJ entirely. What was once a resource for conversation and different perspectives is nothing more than a playground for adults (or rather, insurance professionals) to act like children.
Hey Giving up, the very first comment on this article was moniker stealing booger posting under my moniker his trash talk. He doesn’t waste much time, does he? His IQ is about 50 and has the maturity of about a 10 year old. What employer was stupid enough to give him a job in this industry?
Similar to your maturity level with your incessant voting for yourself! LOL!! Have a great weekend Agent/Real Agent/Original Agent or whatever your name is.
Cliven, funny how I only posted with my name and your former moniker. Even better, in all this madness, I made less than 10 posts under your former “moniker” much of which was copy and paste like you do from wikipedia. If my IQ is 50, then yours is 25 at best. I don’t think your IQ is anywhere near half of mine so it’s mostly likely in the single digits. As for me being 10, it’s better than you being 70 and still acting like the used massengill nozzle of the sweaty fat chick in the sauna at the gym still thinking she will fit into some yoga pants one day. You really do have that many people that would love to post under your “moniker” but were just waiting for someone to make the first move. I made that first move, brought your antics to the forefront, and have been having a blast ever since. At the very least, there are now more people willing to call you out and expose you for the Jimmy Swaggart of snake oil salesmen that you are. Hope you enjoy the toaster you were acknowledged with yesterday. Just how many in home demonstrations did you have to do to win it?
I too am very tired of these post. It’s worse than high school. Nothing intelligent ever is posted and that is to both sides. I too usually just read and thumb down/up those I agree with but to get into the BORING, USELESS banter is not worth my time. Just text or FB each other so the rest of us can have real conversation’s about the articles.
I don’t give a rats ass about thumbs up or down. I like reading comments from the real people posting. It pisses me off that the past couple weeks the monikers have been stolen. Stay classy!
Lucy, I have changed monikers about 5 times and booger still posts his trash on every one. Perhaps it would be better if booger lost his posting/moniker thieving ability and we might actually post on the subject presented and have a discussion.
We will never have the proper discussions while you still post. Your posts routinely consist of at least one reference to “your fearless leader”, “governance by the pen”, Tyrone, your born again values, how great you are, how great Texico is, and now you’ve started a blog called “Aggie Football with Ole’ Agent”. You then stir up your asylum with your asides to you chat buddies which then sparks mass responses. I understand that the interweb is a newer concept to you. You aren’t young enough to have used AOL in the 90’s when chatting was the bees knees. You probably belonged to that old ‘Murrican institution of having a pen pal that you signed up when you received your subscription of “Boys Life Magazine”. You probably still correspond with them if they are still alive. “If you want your blog you can keep your blog” I have another moniker you haven’t used yet. How about Elmer Fudd. You need to step your game up and stop regurgitating what you hear on the Fox News Comedy Channel. Another good suggestion is to stop accusing me of posting under all of your many “personalities”. Pretty sad that you would need to have at least 5 isn’t it? I would have no reason to post something under your various names that I wouldn’t post under my own although I posted under the moniker “Agent” to prove a point. There really are that many people that think you are a choad.
Bravo! I can hear the voice in my head as I read that. That’s flipping awesome!

To all you whiners out there. There is nothing stopping you from reading articles on IJ if you enjoy it so much. You do not need to click on the Comments section when reading an article. And there certainly is no need for you to then comment on the comments. Just click the “x” in the upper right hand corner.
But Libby, both sides of the aisle post useful info. I would agree that most of the post go right to insults and is usually pointless dribble. Even a blind squirrel ya know. Just like everything in this world. Some day maybe even obama will do something good. At least they are talking about punishing companies that ship jobs out.
But I do agree, the childish behavior from the likes of Booger Brain need to go.
I understand what you’re saying, but how much useful information could one expect to get from this article? Or any other article that isn’t specifically about insurance or insurance products, which the majority aren’t.
Articles about birth control, the ACA, gay rights, and other hot topics will always spur the kind of posts these people are complaining about. Why would anyone think otherwise?
Hi FFA, Isn’t it great that our fearless leader said yesterday that he didn’t have a plan for ISIS? In fact, he doesn’t have much of a plan on anything except to grant amnesty to 5 million illegals via the pen.
By the way, the Texas A&M Aggies gave South Carolina a severe licking last night on the road and without Manziel. The new quarterback, Kenny Hill broke Manziel’s single game passing stats. The old ball coach Spurrier didn’t know what hit him. I think the Aggies will be allright this year.
I, for one, am glad our administration isn’t rushing into anything like our previous admin did. And, I’m pretty certain there are talks of a strategy, but this President is smart enough not to broadcast that across international channels for all of ISIS to hear. Just remember who got Bin Laden. If widescale bombing is getting innocent American heads chopped off, we need a more focused plan of attack. That type of plan doesn’t evolve over night.
Captain,
Things from Texico rarely evolve let alone over night. By the way, I was watching a show last night called “10 Things You Didn’t Know about Texico” with host Henry Rollins. Did you know that the US Military brought camels from the Middle East to Texico? This was before pick up tanks came along. I think I’m going to listen to Kashmir now. This of course was well before a spectator event they had where two locomotives were deliberately put on the same track to create a head on collision with each other at 40 MPH. The best part was these Neanderthals were allowed to stand within 30 feet of the collision.
Just remember Planet the President blaming a video on Benghazi after he said Al Quida had been decimated. Just remember that he called ISIS the Jayvee team and not to worry about them for month after month after he was warned ISIS was a big problem. Who is the Jayvee team now?
Nice dog whistle with the ebonics. That joke is hilariously racist. By the way:
(from Politifact)
As of Aug 8, 2014 President Obama has taken 125 days of vacation. George W. Bush took 407 days of vacation during his Presidency.
Again, as of Aug 8, 2014, President Obama has played 186 rounds of golf. Dwight Eisenhower played nearly 800 rounds and Woodrow Wilson played nearly 1,200.
Planet, I am glad you found it hilarious. We need more levity in this society. It is interesting that you compare Eisenhower playing golf with our golfer in Chief. By the way, your figures are off. He played 9 more rounds in the Martha Vineyard vacation. So what if Eisenhower played a lot of golf. He wasn’t tearing the country apart with a leftist agenda while doing it. The country was united, not divided. He didn’t have several hundred minions including Czars doing the dirty work for him while he was playing golf. I guess your Progressive Socialist Wilson was the worst although he had a stroke and couldn’t play at all toward the end.

Now, what I do find actually hilarious is all of the Faux News crowd making a deal of our President’s vacationing when Dubya took over a year off and they don’t make a peep about him.

Udall in Colorado, Landrieu in La, Hagen in NC want no part of this guy or be seen hugging him. That is the kiss of political death now.

WOW!! What a recap! I felt like I was right there. I love the “ole ball coach” reference. It gives you a sense of southern fried good ole boy cronyism. Do you go to Texican A&M games and pretend you are one of their many dirty boosters? I bet your dog catcher friends go and root for those “fast coloreds” on the field. Texican A&M allows non-whites in right?
Hey Boogerbrain, had you been following athletics, coaches and football, you would have known that Steve Spurrier has been called “Old Ball Coach” by the media for several years, not “Ole” as you misspelled showing your ignorance of the subject and the English language. Actually, uninformed troll, the A&M quarterback is black and is damned good. Your Common Core education is appalling and your blatant racism is oozing from every pore.
Hey FFA. Did you see the story on the net about Mary Landrieu in La? She is the embattled Senator who is struggling big time in her re-election campaign and took the Louisiana Purchase bribe to vote for Obamacare. It seems that she was found out that she doesn’t even own a home in the state. She has a $2.5 million home in DC, but no home in Louisiana. She listed address as her parents home. Not sure that qualifies as a residence, do you? I think her goose is cooked now. She has been running behind anyway and this revelation may be the frosting on the cake. Funny thing about the folks. They generally want their representatives and Senators to actually live in the State and not just be DC weasels.
Hi FFA. Saw an interesting article today on Saul Alinsky and the heritage he left his followers. He was one of those University of Chicago professors and Bill Ayers, Obama & Hillary all subscribed to his philosophy
Rules for Radicals – Eight main tenants are in play.
1. Healthcare – Control Healthcare and you control the people.
2. Poverty – Increase the poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.
3. Debt – Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way, you can increase taxes, and this will provide more poverty.
4. Gun Control – Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way, you are able to create a Police State.
5. Welfare – Take control of every aspect of their lives, Food, Housing & Income.
6. Education – Take control of what people read and listen to – take control of what children learn in school.
7. Religion – Remove the belief in God from the Government and schools.
8. Class Warfare – Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to (tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.
Does any of this sound like what is going on in America?
So FFA, did you get to see any of the Florida State & Oklahoma State game the other night. Most analysts thought Florida State would roll over them by 30 or more points. Someone forgot to tell OSU they should just roll over and play dead. A seven point game indicates it was close.
By the way, I wonder why Harry Reid is not grousing over the “Seminoles” mascot name. That should be equally abhorrent, racist and offensive to Indians everywhere, right?
Agent – oh thee of politically incorrectness, Seminoles is an actual tribe of Native Americans. Redskins is a derogative term the white man came up to describe Native Americans. Many of them view it as similar to the “N” word.
Libby, have you ever seen a Cleveland Indians ballgame? Look at their uniforms sometime. The reddest face imaginable right on the uniform. How about we get them to change their name as well? Gee, I wonder how the Redskins managed to play in the NFL for 60+ years and this just came up. No one but liberals thought it was derogatory in any way.
Since you are not Native American, I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to say what is or is not offensive to them.
If someone tells you something offends them, the polite person refrains from doing or saying whatever that something is. They don’t sit there and argue about it.
But since you were raised where you were, I can’t expect you to have honed your social skills.

Agent,
Serious question here – I grew up in Peoria, IL. There is a town outside of Peoria called Pekin. Their name some time ago was literally, honestly, The Pekin Chinks. Look it up if you want to fact check. Do you think Pekin should have kept that name or do you think they were correct in changing it? They played that way for YEARS without offending anyone and the name change one day “just came up”. Certainly, they should just haved kept it, right? FYI – They changed it to The Dragons.
It is nice that you know my heritage so well Libby. I was born and raised in Oklahoma, the land of the seven civilized tribes and have 1/4th Cherokee in my blood. It is offensive to me that you make general statements that have no basis in fact. You know what “Assume” means, don’t you? Whose social skills need honing now?

Hey Txmouth,
I saw this great political cartoon today. It showed the bullet actually getting to Reagan, ending his economical tyranny on the United States. In the next frame, it showed a prosperous America in 2014, one that doesn’t have the largest wealth gap in the history of the world.
That was one of your more horrible posts Planet. You should be ashamed of yourself. I don’t think I have ever said that about Carter or Obama or Clinton. Us Conservatives lived through Carter and Clinton and we will survive Obama in the end.
I never said it killed him, just knocked him out of his awful Presidency (perhaps made him more brain dead than he already was). One of the worst of two Presidents ever. It’s a tough battle between Raygun and Dubya. Ronnie most likely takes the cake, though.
Planet, only you are deranged enough to think Reagan was an awful President. Most polls have him as the greatest President in the past 100 years. I suppose you think Carter was a better President. Reagan was the one who cleaned up the mess Carter made in 4 short years.
Reagan is the root of our current problems. He stole his first election. And, he wouldn’t be nominated by the Neocons today. He isn’t far enough Right. Reagan sucked and it cost us big time.

Give me a break, Agent. We all know Dubs stole his first election with Florida and the “hanging chads.” What a coinky-dink his brother was governor and the attorney general a staunch supporter. Gore won that election and you know it.
The second election he stole in Ohio, by blocking the polls to minorities.
Oh, he and his buddy Karl were very crafty alright. He had no business being president and the current economy rests squarely on his shoulders; along with many a dead &/or wounded soldier. He was a DISGRACE.
Right on Thom, you are the smartest man on the radiowaves. He also got Newt to admit to the Caucus Room Restaurant meeting where top GOPers pledged to have a Taliban-esque approach to trying to ruin our President. #treason

Libby, how did you manage to get from Planet’s accusation about Reagan stealing an election to GW over Gore? That is a big leap and shows your reading abilities are in disrepair. As I recall, you voted for Reagan. Do you think he stole that election from the incompetent Carter? Do you think he stole the re-election from Mondale? Both of them were blowouts.
By the way, the recounts Gore demanded in Florida were a higher margin than the first results, so no he didn’t steal the election after all. I shudder to think what would have happened if we had Gore in place when 9/11 happened.

So Libby, I see you are depressed about the country being divided when we should be uniting. I agree with you on this. The thing is that we have a President who is dividing us daily by gender, race, economic status and is doing a totally incompetent job of being President. The latest Gallup poll has him at 38% approval rating after hovering since June at 40-43% approval rating. If we had real leadership in that office from someone who has the country’s best interest at heart and could rally all Americans to be US first, we might get somewhere. Now, it appears the country has two more years to suffer this fool.

Agent told Txmouth this, “…showing your ignorance of the subject and the English language.”
And in a later post, wrote this, “Us Conservatives lived through Carter and Clinton and we will survive Obama in the end.”
Kids, can we all help Agent with his “expertise” of the English Language? Let’s be sure to focus on punctuation. While we are at it, please work in your group table with Agent on reading comprehension, too. Texas doesn’t seem to have a grasp on those functions of our language quite yet. But, WE (hint there Agent) Yankees can help!
You should read Boogers posts sometime if you want to criticize punctuation, spelling etc. By the way, I could care less if your hole in the ground baseball team in Illinois was called the Chinks. I knew you were probably from Illinois, the state with the largest pension debt in the country, currently $54 Billion. Chicago is just a bigger Detroit and is nearing bankruptcy and then wonderful Dead Fish just invited in a bunch of illegal aliens to care for.
Planet, I hate to tell you this, but your spelling is as bad as your posts. The correct spelling is Rham Emanuel. Those who throw rocks shouldn’t live in glass houses.
Agent… Chicago story is the same. Multiple Murders every day. Watching the news, never sure if I am watching todays news or just a re run. State Cops not making much of a difference in the news any ways.
My days are numbered in this miserable state…. Chicago will no longer dictate to me what I can and or cant do and how much taxes I pay. No longer going to be subject to the Chicago Democratic Political Machine. Gonna have an honest hard working Gov to lead the way.
FFA, you have a good one in Walker. The unions are still trying to oust him, but he survived their last attempt and he has the state on the right track so the good people of Wisconsin should keep him in there.
BTW, I did not get Manning or his receivers, Breese, but I did get Grahm. Love that guy. What a role model. Proof you can pull your self up and out of a bad situation.
I did take Johnny Football with my last pick so I can keep him for next year.
And who did Jerry Jones sign yesterday, but that gay defensive end Michael Sam from Missouri who got cut. That shows you how desperate Jones is. They couldn’t stop a decent college team. I will go out on a limb and say that if they win 6 games this year, I would be shocked. Johnny Football will be starting for the Browns sometime this season. You don’t draft a guy like that to hold the clipboard.
Not in the least Libbytroll. The guy got cut from the Rams because he wasn’t good enough to unseat the incumbent. Jones is so desperate for players, he will sign almost anyone to suit up. He is on the practice squad for now, but after the first game when more players are injured, he will probably be a starter. The knock on Sam athletically is that he is too small to be a defensive end and too slow to be a linebacker.
Agent – there was no need to mention his sexual orientation if your intention was to slam his athletic ability – which wasn’t even mentioned in your post. You can try to dress it up, but your comment is what it is. Homophobic.

Isn’t this interesting making a mockery out of IJ. Imposters galore stealing monikers to post drivel. Planet, you and booger would be better served to post on Media Matters or Huffington Post so you can agree with fellow leftists. By the way, your President played 9 rounds of golf while the world is on fire and our journalist was beheaded in Iraq. He is such a caring guy, our President. I wonder how many times he has been in the situation room in the past year.

Planet, forgive me for not posting on this question yesterday. I was out of town at a meeting of one of our leading markets being recognized for production, retention etc. Gee, being in an inner circle group of about 6 other agents out of a couple hundred in the region makes me feel good about what we do.

Besides he’s been accused by everyone and has never denied it. In fact, it was a post from txboogereatertx that told him how to do. Ever since then, it has been like this.

I guess you use your centipede thumbs to thumb Agent up in the 100’s, too. Not likely. And what does this have to do with me getting over myself? Agent is the one that needs to get over himself, thinking he can control who reads what on IJ. Stay out of it.
Sixteen posts to this article, and not one of them relate to the article in the least. The finger-pointing, immature posts, name-calling, etc. is ridiculous for a group of people that call themselves insurance professionals. I’ve sent e-mails to the IJ regarding some of the posts, particularly those that call names and make vulgar comments, but nothing is done. I’m unsubscribing to IJ entirely. What was once a resource for conversation and different perspectives is nothing more than a playground for adults (or rather, insurance professionals) to act like children.
You won’t be missed.
Hey Giving up, the very first comment on this article was moniker stealing booger posting under my moniker his trash talk. He doesn’t waste much time, does he? His IQ is about 50 and has the maturity of about a 10 year old. What employer was stupid enough to give him a job in this industry?
Similar to your maturity level with your incessant voting for yourself! LOL!! Have a great weekend Agent/Real Agent/Original Agent or whatever your name is.
Cliven, funny how I only posted with my name and your former moniker. Even better, in all this madness, I made less than 10 posts under your former “moniker” much of which was copy and paste like you do from wikipedia. If my IQ is 50, then yours is 25 at best. I don’t think your IQ is anywhere near half of mine so it’s mostly likely in the single digits. As for me being 10, it’s better than you being 70 and still acting like the used massengill nozzle of the sweaty fat chick in the sauna at the gym still thinking she will fit into some yoga pants one day. You really do have that many people that would love to post under your “moniker” but were just waiting for someone to make the first move. I made that first move, brought your antics to the forefront, and have been having a blast ever since. At the very least, there are now more people willing to call you out and expose you for the Jimmy Swaggart of snake oil salesmen that you are. Hope you enjoy the toaster you were acknowledged with yesterday. Just how many in home demonstrations did you have to do to win it?
I too am very tired of these post. It’s worse than high school. Nothing intelligent ever is posted and that is to both sides. I too usually just read and thumb down/up those I agree with but to get into the BORING, USELESS banter is not worth my time. Just text or FB each other so the rest of us can have real conversation’s about the articles.
I don’t give a rats ass about thumbs up or down. I like reading comments from the real people posting. It pisses me off that the past couple weeks the monikers have been stolen. Stay classy!
The monikers shouldn’t be the issue in the least! CONTENT matters. It may better off starting all over with new ones.
Lucy, I have changed monikers about 5 times and booger still posts his trash on every one. Perhaps it would be better if booger lost his posting/moniker thieving ability and we might actually post on the subject presented and have a discussion.
We will never have the proper discussions while you still post. Your posts routinely consist of at least one reference to “your fearless leader”, “governance by the pen”, Tyrone, your born again values, how great you are, how great Texico is, and now you’ve started a blog called “Aggie Football with Ole’ Agent”. You then stir up your asylum with your asides to you chat buddies which then sparks mass responses. I understand that the interweb is a newer concept to you. You aren’t young enough to have used AOL in the 90’s when chatting was the bees knees. You probably belonged to that old ‘Murrican institution of having a pen pal that you signed up when you received your subscription of “Boys Life Magazine”. You probably still correspond with them if they are still alive. “If you want your blog you can keep your blog” I have another moniker you haven’t used yet. How about Elmer Fudd. You need to step your game up and stop regurgitating what you hear on the Fox News Comedy Channel. Another good suggestion is to stop accusing me of posting under all of your many “personalities”. Pretty sad that you would need to have at least 5 isn’t it? I would have no reason to post something under your various names that I wouldn’t post under my own although I posted under the moniker “Agent” to prove a point. There really are that many people that think you are a choad.
Elmer Fudd,
Don’t forget to block this message too. huhuhuhuhuhu
Bravo! I can hear the voice in my head as I read that. That’s flipping awesome!
To all you whiners out there. There is nothing stopping you from reading articles on IJ if you enjoy it so much. You do not need to click on the Comments section when reading an article. And there certainly is no need for you to then comment on the comments. Just click the “x” in the upper right hand corner.
But Libby, both sides of the aisle post useful info. I would agree that most of the post go right to insults and is usually pointless dribble. Even a blind squirrel ya know. Just like everything in this world. Some day maybe even obama will do something good. At least they are talking about punishing companies that ship jobs out.
But I do agree, the childish behavior from the likes of Booger Brain need to go.
I understand what you’re saying, but how much useful information could one expect to get from this article? Or any other article that isn’t specifically about insurance or insurance products, which the majority aren’t.
Articles about birth control, the ACA, gay rights, and other hot topics will always spur the kind of posts these people are complaining about. Why would anyone think otherwise?
How about if it is rebranded as “Insurance Enquirer”???
Hi FFA, Isn’t it great that our fearless leader said yesterday that he didn’t have a plan for ISIS? In fact, he doesn’t have much of a plan on anything except to grant amnesty to 5 million illegals via the pen.
By the way, the Texas A&M Aggies gave South Carolina a severe licking last night on the road and without Manziel. The new quarterback, Kenny Hill broke Manziel’s single game passing stats. The old ball coach Spurrier didn’t know what hit him. I think the Aggies will be allright this year.
I, for one, am glad our administration isn’t rushing into anything like our previous admin did. And, I’m pretty certain there are talks of a strategy, but this President is smart enough not to broadcast that across international channels for all of ISIS to hear. Just remember who got Bin Laden. If widescale bombing is getting innocent American heads chopped off, we need a more focused plan of attack. That type of plan doesn’t evolve over night.
Captain,
Things from Texico rarely evolve let alone over night. By the way, I was watching a show last night called “10 Things You Didn’t Know about Texico” with host Henry Rollins. Did you know that the US Military brought camels from the Middle East to Texico? This was before pick up tanks came along. I think I’m going to listen to Kashmir now. This of course was well before a spectator event they had where two locomotives were deliberately put on the same track to create a head on collision with each other at 40 MPH. The best part was these Neanderthals were allowed to stand within 30 feet of the collision.
Just remember Planet the President blaming a video on Benghazi after he said Al Quida had been decimated. Just remember that he called ISIS the Jayvee team and not to worry about them for month after month after he was warned ISIS was a big problem. Who is the Jayvee team now?
Hey FFA, I saw a good one about the President’s press conference on the beheading of the journalist.
He said, let me begin by talking about the beheading of the journalist. I be heading to the golf course.
Nice dog whistle with the ebonics. That joke is hilariously racist. By the way:
(from Politifact)
As of Aug 8, 2014 President Obama has taken 125 days of vacation. George W. Bush took 407 days of vacation during his Presidency.
Again, as of Aug 8, 2014, President Obama has played 186 rounds of golf. Dwight Eisenhower played nearly 800 rounds and Woodrow Wilson played nearly 1,200.
Planet, I am glad you found it hilarious. We need more levity in this society. It is interesting that you compare Eisenhower playing golf with our golfer in Chief. By the way, your figures are off. He played 9 more rounds in the Martha Vineyard vacation. So what if Eisenhower played a lot of golf. He wasn’t tearing the country apart with a leftist agenda while doing it. The country was united, not divided. He didn’t have several hundred minions including Czars doing the dirty work for him while he was playing golf. I guess your Progressive Socialist Wilson was the worst although he had a stroke and couldn’t play at all toward the end.
Actually, your reading comprehension is off yet again. I don’t find it hilarious, I find it hilariously racist. And, if you focus hard enough, you will see I noted, “As of Aug 8, 2014), so, my figures did not include The President’s well deserved Martha’s Vineyard vacation.
Now, what I do find actually hilarious is all of the Faux News crowd making a deal of our President’s vacationing when Dubya took over a year off and they don’t make a peep about him.
Find out what choad means yet? Maybe you can ask one of your gals in the office.
Well deserved vacation Planet????? Vacation from fundraisers all over the country? Is that doing productive work governing the nation? Over 400 fundraisers to date and many of the candidates he is fundraising for are dodging him and won’t appear with him. Udall in Colorado, Landrieu in La, Hagen in NC want no part of this guy or be seen hugging him. That is the kiss of political death now. He is now underwater on every issue people care about, some by double digits. Keep hugging him Planet.
Imagine if you knew this much about insurance instead of the redundant, useless, factoids you have to share with all of us. Man, if I were an addict and went to one of your tent revivals, I would make sure I was on your team during a game of “Useless Born Again Political Puke Team Trivia”
WOW!! What a recap! I felt like I was right there. I love the “ole ball coach” reference. It gives you a sense of southern fried good ole boy cronyism. Do you go to Texican A&M games and pretend you are one of their many dirty boosters? I bet your dog catcher friends go and root for those “fast coloreds” on the field. Texican A&M allows non-whites in right?
Hey Boogerbrain, had you been following athletics, coaches and football, you would have known that Steve Spurrier has been called “Old Ball Coach” by the media for several years, not “Ole” as you misspelled showing your ignorance of the subject and the English language. Actually, uninformed troll, the A&M quarterback is black and is damned good. Your Common Core education is appalling and your blatant racism is oozing from every pore.
Its just something different. A change of pace. Not sure gay rights belong in an insurance forum, but again its something different.
How your Broncos looking foe this year? Got your QB on my radar for my FF team along with all your receivers.
Go Peyton!
I haven’t watched any preseason Broncos, since we don’t get many of their games in PA. :-(
Wish I had time to give you 100 thumbs up on that one…. Top scoring player in my league last year. #2 you ask??? Drew Breese.
Hey FFA. Did you see the story on the net about Mary Landrieu in La? She is the embattled Senator who is struggling big time in her re-election campaign and took the Louisiana Purchase bribe to vote for Obamacare. It seems that she was found out that she doesn’t even own a home in the state. She has a $2.5 million home in DC, but no home in Louisiana. She listed address as her parents home. Not sure that qualifies as a residence, do you? I think her goose is cooked now. She has been running behind anyway and this revelation may be the frosting on the cake. Funny thing about the folks. They generally want their representatives and Senators to actually live in the State and not just be DC weasels.
Hi FFA. Saw an interesting article today on Saul Alinsky and the heritage he left his followers. He was one of those University of Chicago professors and Bill Ayers, Obama & Hillary all subscribed to his philosophy
Rules for Radicals – Eight main tenants are in play.
1. Healthcare – Control Healthcare and you control the people.
2. Poverty – Increase the poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.
3. Debt – Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way, you can increase taxes, and this will provide more poverty.
4. Gun Control – Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way, you are able to create a Police State.
5. Welfare – Take control of every aspect of their lives, Food, Housing & Income.
6. Education – Take control of what people read and listen to – take control of what children learn in school.
7. Religion – Remove the belief in God from the Government and schools.
8. Class Warfare – Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to (tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.
Does any of this sound like what is going on in America?
So FFA, did you get to see any of the Florida State & Oklahoma State game the other night. Most analysts thought Florida State would roll over them by 30 or more points. Someone forgot to tell OSU they should just roll over and play dead. A seven point game indicates it was close.
By the way, I wonder why Harry Reid is not grousing over the “Seminoles” mascot name. That should be equally abhorrent, racist and offensive to Indians everywhere, right?
Agent – oh thee of politically incorrectness, Seminoles is an actual tribe of Native Americans. Redskins is a derogative term the white man came up to describe Native Americans. Many of them view it as similar to the “N” word.
Libby, have you ever seen a Cleveland Indians ballgame? Look at their uniforms sometime. The reddest face imaginable right on the uniform. How about we get them to change their name as well? Gee, I wonder how the Redskins managed to play in the NFL for 60+ years and this just came up. No one but liberals thought it was derogatory in any way.
Since you are not Native American, I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to say what is or is not offensive to them.
If someone tells you something offends them, the polite person refrains from doing or saying whatever that something is. They don’t sit there and argue about it.
But since you were raised where you were, I can’t expect you to have honed your social skills.
“I wonder how the Redskins managed to play in the NFL for 60+ years and this just came up.”
The N word was regularly used for hundreds of years and it “just came up” that it’s improper to say. Move with the times, old man.
Agent,
Serious question here – I grew up in Peoria, IL. There is a town outside of Peoria called Pekin. Their name some time ago was literally, honestly, The Pekin Chinks. Look it up if you want to fact check. Do you think Pekin should have kept that name or do you think they were correct in changing it? They played that way for YEARS without offending anyone and the name change one day “just came up”. Certainly, they should just haved kept it, right? FYI – They changed it to The Dragons.
Interesting factoids:
http://gaijinass.com/2010/07/24/pekin-chinks-windsor-swastikas-atlanta-black-crackers/
It is nice that you know my heritage so well Libby. I was born and raised in Oklahoma, the land of the seven civilized tribes and have 1/4th Cherokee in my blood. It is offensive to me that you make general statements that have no basis in fact. You know what “Assume” means, don’t you? Whose social skills need honing now?
Agent wrote, “It is offensive to me that you make general statements that have no basis in fact.”
So, my question to you Agent is this – how many times a day do you offend yourself?
Oh, SNAP!!!
Hey Txmouth,
I saw this great political cartoon today. It showed the bullet actually getting to Reagan, ending his economical tyranny on the United States. In the next frame, it showed a prosperous America in 2014, one that doesn’t have the largest wealth gap in the history of the world.
That was one of your more horrible posts Planet. You should be ashamed of yourself. I don’t think I have ever said that about Carter or Obama or Clinton. Us Conservatives lived through Carter and Clinton and we will survive Obama in the end.
I never said it killed him, just knocked him out of his awful Presidency (perhaps made him more brain dead than he already was). One of the worst of two Presidents ever. It’s a tough battle between Raygun and Dubya. Ronnie most likely takes the cake, though.
Planet, only you are deranged enough to think Reagan was an awful President. Most polls have him as the greatest President in the past 100 years. I suppose you think Carter was a better President. Reagan was the one who cleaned up the mess Carter made in 4 short years.
Reagan is the root of our current problems. He stole his first election. And, he wouldn’t be nominated by the Neocons today. He isn’t far enough Right. Reagan sucked and it cost us big time.
Planet, Reagan stole his first election?????? The way I remember it, it was a landslide. Only your President steals elections and only Democrats vote multiple times in both National and Mid Term elections.
Give me a break, Agent. We all know Dubs stole his first election with Florida and the “hanging chads.” What a coinky-dink his brother was governor and the attorney general a staunch supporter. Gore won that election and you know it.
The second election he stole in Ohio, by blocking the polls to minorities.
Oh, he and his buddy Karl were very crafty alright. He had no business being president and the current economy rests squarely on his shoulders; along with many a dead &/or wounded soldier. He was a DISGRACE.
http://www.thomhartmann.com/blog/2011/03/transcript-thom-hartmann-asks-reese-erlich-if-ronald-reagan-cut-iran-hostage-deal-and-s
Here’s another good one.
http://www.thomhartmann.com/blog/2014/09/gop-war-workers-has-killed-again
Right on Thom, you are the smartest man on the radiowaves. He also got Newt to admit to the Caucus Room Restaurant meeting where top GOPers pledged to have a Taliban-esque approach to trying to ruin our President. #treason
It’s all so sad. At a time when we all should be uniting, we are more divided than ever. It will take a small miracle to right this ship. I’m disheartened today.
I see you’re up to your old tricks again, Agent.
Libby, how did you manage to get from Planet’s accusation about Reagan stealing an election to GW over Gore? That is a big leap and shows your reading abilities are in disrepair. As I recall, you voted for Reagan. Do you think he stole that election from the incompetent Carter? Do you think he stole the re-election from Mondale? Both of them were blowouts.
By the way, the recounts Gore demanded in Florida were a higher margin than the first results, so no he didn’t steal the election after all. I shudder to think what would have happened if we had Gore in place when 9/11 happened.
So Libby, I see you are depressed about the country being divided when we should be uniting. I agree with you on this. The thing is that we have a President who is dividing us daily by gender, race, economic status and is doing a totally incompetent job of being President. The latest Gallup poll has him at 38% approval rating after hovering since June at 40-43% approval rating. If we had real leadership in that office from someone who has the country’s best interest at heart and could rally all Americans to be US first, we might get somewhere. Now, it appears the country has two more years to suffer this fool.
Agent told Txmouth this, “…showing your ignorance of the subject and the English language.”
And in a later post, wrote this, “Us Conservatives lived through Carter and Clinton and we will survive Obama in the end.”
Kids, can we all help Agent with his “expertise” of the English Language? Let’s be sure to focus on punctuation. While we are at it, please work in your group table with Agent on reading comprehension, too. Texas doesn’t seem to have a grasp on those functions of our language quite yet. But, WE (hint there Agent) Yankees can help!
It’s hopeless, Captain. I’ve been schooling him on the “Us” v. “We” for years now. He’s just too dumb to get it.
If Agent had written the Constitution, it would have begun “Us, the people of the United States in order to….”
I actually voted today and gave you a thumbs up on that one. Hilarious!
You should read Boogers posts sometime if you want to criticize punctuation, spelling etc. By the way, I could care less if your hole in the ground baseball team in Illinois was called the Chinks. I knew you were probably from Illinois, the state with the largest pension debt in the country, currently $54 Billion. Chicago is just a bigger Detroit and is nearing bankruptcy and then wonderful Dead Fish just invited in a bunch of illegal aliens to care for.
Agent, it was the entire high school, all sports and students. You don’t like Asians, either?
Not a Raum fan but good on him for inviting them in. Jesus would have done the same thing.
Planet, I hate to tell you this, but your spelling is as bad as your posts. The correct spelling is Rham Emanuel. Those who throw rocks shouldn’t live in glass houses.
Hey Agent,
To quote John McClain, “Glass? Who gives a sh!t about glass?”
Agent… Chicago story is the same. Multiple Murders every day. Watching the news, never sure if I am watching todays news or just a re run. State Cops not making much of a difference in the news any ways.
My days are numbered in this miserable state…. Chicago will no longer dictate to me what I can and or cant do and how much taxes I pay. No longer going to be subject to the Chicago Democratic Political Machine. Gonna have an honest hard working Gov to lead the way.
FFA, you have a good one in Walker. The unions are still trying to oust him, but he survived their last attempt and he has the state on the right track so the good people of Wisconsin should keep him in there.
BTW, I did not get Manning or his receivers, Breese, but I did get Grahm. Love that guy. What a role model. Proof you can pull your self up and out of a bad situation.
I did take Johnny Football with my last pick so I can keep him for next year.
And who did Jerry Jones sign yesterday, but that gay defensive end Michael Sam from Missouri who got cut. That shows you how desperate Jones is. They couldn’t stop a decent college team. I will go out on a limb and say that if they win 6 games this year, I would be shocked. Johnny Football will be starting for the Browns sometime this season. You don’t draft a guy like that to hold the clipboard.
A little homophobic, Agent?
Not in the least Libbytroll. The guy got cut from the Rams because he wasn’t good enough to unseat the incumbent. Jones is so desperate for players, he will sign almost anyone to suit up. He is on the practice squad for now, but after the first game when more players are injured, he will probably be a starter. The knock on Sam athletically is that he is too small to be a defensive end and too slow to be a linebacker.
Agent – there was no need to mention his sexual orientation if your intention was to slam his athletic ability – which wasn’t even mentioned in your post. You can try to dress it up, but your comment is what it is. Homophobic.
Hey Libby, the guy came out, made a big deal about it and had a picture made for the media with him smooching his boyfriend when he found out he was finally drafted. He made this what it was. Other gay professionals have not chosen that path and as a result they are not in the media spotlight. I am sorry you don’t like the facts.
Rest in Peace Joan Rivers. You were one of the funniest females alive for decades. It is hard to believe we have lost Robin Williams and her in a short time. It looks like a big malpractice claim to me since it was a minor procedure she was having done and the doctor & clinic must have screwed up so the investigation begins.
It is great to work an agency that all employees are Professionals that care about the client. They “make it happen”!
