I’m a bit discouraged, like most I think but I still have faith and am fully committed. Having said that, I think things are brightening up a bit for us.

Ororeef @ 11:22 Re Bull/S Terminology From 2003
part of several 2003 posts:
Anybody notice how they make things sound better on the news?
“Lots of money on the side-lines” How about, lots of DEBT on the sidelines?
Another one, “double dip” are they trying to remind us of an ice cream cone, while talking about a bad economy?
How about “sub prime loans” instead of risky-dead beat loans. Why is the word ‘prime’ there? To remind us of steak?
Even the word “inflation” to make it sound like something is getting bigger instead of saying the dollar getting smaller.
I would love to meet the people who are paid to come up with miss-leading terminology. Why don’t they speak English?
@(SeattleSun) Terminology for the masses
(Mr.Copper) Apr 25, 11:51
I would love to know who the propaganda ministers are that are paid to come up with this nonsense. Why don’t they speak English?
Take notice how some are a mix of one pleasant word with one negative word like sub-prime.
If you guys can think of any others, just let me know.
#1 “double dip” (better than one dip?)
#2 “stealth bull market” (no bull mkt)
#3 “non-performing” (bad loans.)
#4 “sub-prime” (dead beat borrowers.)
#5 “accounting irregularities” (fraud)
#6 “creative financing” ”
#7 “cook the books” ”
#8 “corporate shenanigans” ”
#9 “pro-forma earnings” ?
#10 “market-disconnect” (excuse)
#11 “pre-rally decline” (decline)
#12 “negative growth” (contraction)
#13 “negative outlays” (less)
#14 “growth recession” (recession)
#15 “Paralysis by analysis” (excuse)
#16 “chapter 11” (not paying bills, while in business)
#17 “relief rally” (s/b dead cat bounce)
#18 “economic soft spot” (collapsing economy)
#19 “Waning optimism” (pessimism)
#20 “Seasonally adjusted figures” (excuses)
#21 “war premium” (no premium)
#22 “Jobless Recovery (no recovery)
#23 “Negative obligation”(not doing what supposed to)?
“Waning Optimism”….Brand new, fresh off the ‘Propaganda Press’
(Mr.Copper) Mar 04, 11:12
Yesterday I heard that phrase on the radio, and thought…. wouldn’t they save a word by just saying, “pessimism”? Why 2 words, when 1 is enough?
So, I have added a new word to my collection of evasive, miss leading, ridiculous, sugar coated, terminology heard on the media, intended to dumb down the masses.
I would love to meet the sleazes that are paid to come up with this nonsense. Why don’t they speak English?
When I heard it “waning optimism” I think they were talking about consumer confidence.
A sneaky, sleazy way to say pessimistic. They are brilliant. Remember “A thousand points of light”?
@(teo) Mar 04, 11:18 how about “better than expected” ?
(Mr.Copper) Mar 04, 11:52
Thank you Teo. But that one does not meet the criteria of miss-leading phrase, generally made up by mixing a nice word with a bad word.
Ex. Sub (less) Prime (quality meat) or Double Dip (ice cream) Recession.
“Better than expected” is probably just a normal and common lie. 🙂
“Friendly fire” (wild fire)
Perhaps

Their mayor isn’t doing any better. They created this, stood by let it escalate for their own agenda. I don’t know how I would feel if I was black about those statues. I as white thinking if I was black would see them as a reminder of things of past. I would not like to see all those reminders go away and how far things have progesssed since then as history repeats just in another form. Just as the Jewish keep the concentration camps where they are as a reminder of mans inhumanity to man.
We’re seeing it again by the left. Now it will be every little thing they can’t handle born from their special interst groups and safe spaces. We have illegals and fake refugees coming in stealing from us via welfare, jobs, and trying to change our laws to suit them That is beyond communism but anarchy from within all for votes. Then they call others Un American who don’t go along with them, it’s them who are UN American traitors and infact anarchists who would flush this country and its economy down the tubes for their own self Interest.
It’s just a side tract for their own failures. The people at these riots are un american and don’t represebt us. They are trying to make it look that way.
Meanwhile it’s a side tract to jobs wages healthcare they totally messed up. People still going to the doctor who can pay for tests treatments or medicines these same anarchists allowed to happen. A good way to shut them up with diversions.
What’s the sudden concern.. Or a diversion Dont look at them look at Trump whos trying to reverse the carnage for the better of all and these idiots will follow along and take the bait., Trump should beef up security you know what they’re trying to do.

Indian, Chinese Soldiers Clash Following Alleged Chinese “Incursion”
n what may be the first documented clash between Chinese and Indian soldiers who have been piling up across the border between the two nations over the latest territorial dispute, Reuters reports that “Indian and Chinese soldiers were involved in an altercation” in the western Himalayas on Tuesday, “further raising tensions between the two countries which are already locked in a two-month standoff in another part of the disputed border.”
While there has been no official confirmation yet by either India or China, a Reuters source in New Delhi who was briefed on the military situation on the border, said Indian soldiers “foiled a bid by a group of Chinese troops to enter Indian territory in Ladakh, near the Pangong lake.” He added that some of the Chinese soldiers carried iron rods and stones, and in the melee there were minor injuries on both sides, the source said.
Ororeef 22:09 Theyre not just communists they’re Anarchists. Trump should of responded by telling the Gov of Va to do is job protecting all citizens not just the ones he thinks are voting for him. If he did his job it wouldn’t of happened.
Typical left blaming others for their failures of what they created on someone else. Trying to blame this on Trump or his voters. Blame themselves.
They gave a permit to white nationalists and people who were protesting the vandalism of historic figures knew anarchist were going to be bussed in paid by one and could of seperated them but instead they stood back and as a result a woman is dead, two police officers are dead and others are in the hospital. What was the term originally of police? Peace officers. Keeping the peace. Not spectators. The Governor can blame themselves for making this about him and trying to demonize whites looking for votes by propaganda and will put people in harms way to get them. Then looking to what Trump is going to say like a set up. Trump should of said DO YOUR JOB. if they did their job it wouldn’t of happened. Typical anarchists,
Now more protests are set one in Boston over free speech not affiliated with any race group and even a Hillary is spreading fake news about it to get the anarchist ” DOMESTIC TERRORISTS” to show up and Attack them. I read someone even vandalized a holocaust memorial. If anything some historical relics should stay up as a reminder of not not to repeat. It will be the left anarchists who have been instigating and dividing that will be the ones who repeat in another form.
These snowflakes are a bunch of sniveling whiners ever since Hitkery lost. How many here needed their mommies and daddy’s to support them at 26 and pay for their health care. I’m guessing most of us were out of the house at 18 getting jobs buying their own cars paying their own bills and getting their own education or work skills. Theses whiners want anarchy cut all their free stuff away. They want to complain about slavery, then stop making them out of others and pay their own bills.

Thank Carter and Clinton for North Korea’s Nukes
If there is anything positive about the crisis about North Korea, it is that we don’t have a President Hillary Clinton dealing with it. The wannabe first female president, if you don’t count Obama aide Valerie Jarrett, who orchestrated the disaster in the Middle East, would no doubt take the advice of William Jefferson Clinton, the commander-in-chief who is the godfather of North Korea’s nuclear program and the winner of the Neville Chamberlain Lifetime Appeasement Award.
Between the two of them, they have royally mucked up the word. Hillary was there when President Obama precipitously withdrew from Iraq, creating the vacuum that ISIS filled, and drew the red line in Syria with vanishing ink. She is the architect of the Libyan venture that turned Libya into a failed state and Benghazi a graveyard for four heroic Americans.
As for her husband’s role, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter must be very proud. Their policy of appeasement of North Korea’s brutal dictatorship has now borne rotten fruit with the little fat boy, Kim Jong Un, now able to threaten the world with horrors similar to those imposed on his own people.
When Clinton first learned of the North Korean nuclear program in 1994, a surgical strike against its Yoingbyomg reactor might have sufficed to send Pyongyang a message that a nuclear North Korea was unacceptable.
Instead, Clinton allowed Jimmy Carter to engage in some private foreign policy and jet off to the last Stalinist regime on earth to broker a deal whereby North Korea would promise to forego a nuclear weapons program in exchange for a basket of goodies that included oil, food, and amazingly, nuclear technology.
Along the way, Carter praised North Korea’s mass-murdering dictator as a “vigorous and intelligent man.” And of North Korea itself, Carter said of this habitat for inhumanity, “I don’t see they are an outlaw nation.” Of course, the man who gave us the ayatollahs in Iran didn’t. That wouldn’t stop him from getting the Nobel Peace Prize. As Jonah Goldberg wrote in October, 2002:
Let’s start with the Nobel Peace Prize Committee. On Oct. 11, the Nobel committee announced it would award its Peace Prize to Jimmy Carter. It was really an un-Peace Prize for George W. Bush, whom the Nobel crowd believes is a foolish warmongering meanie.
“In a situation currently marked by threats of the use of power,” intoned the Nobel press release, “Carter has stood by the principles that conflicts must as far as possible be resolved through mediation and international cooperation based on international law, respect for human rights and economic development.” Translation: Bush should be more like Carter…
…it was brother Jimmy who had the bright idea of lavishing the North Koreans with aid in exchange for their “cross-our-hearts-and-hope-to-die” promise that they would stop pursuing nuclear weapons technology. Of course, many argue it was Carter’s mollycoddling of the North Koreans during his presidency that encouraged them to start their nuclear program to begin with. But hey, that’s heavy water under the bridge…
The final agreement, which Clinton dubbed “a very good deal indeed,” called for the United States to provide the North Koreans with $4 billion worth of light-water reactors and $100 million in oil in exchange for a promise to be good and an assurance that inspectors would be allowed to poke around at some indeterminate point  etc  etc etc…..
