I have yet to see anyone on the left take issue with the Clintons selling Russia Uranium? Best regards, [/quote] Because it's a non-issue that was cooked up by the paranoid right: (from politifact) The uranium deal Before we get too far ahead of ourselves -- the United States gave a fifth of its uranium to Russia? What? As for the transaction Trump alluded to, it involved the Russian nuclear agency and Uranium One, a Toronto-based company. As PolitiFact National has reported, Russia’s nuclear energy agency, which also builds nuclear weapons, bought a controlling stake in Uranium One. The company has mines, mills and tracts of land in Wyoming, Utah and other U.S. states equal to about 20 percent of U.S. uranium production capacity. So, to be clear, the 20 percent is capacity, not uranium that has been produced. Given that Russia doesn’t have the licenses to export uranium outside the United States, it was likely more interested in Uranium One’s assets in Kazakhstan, the world’s largest uranium producer, our colleagues said. As the New York Times has reported, the deal was made in separate transactions from 2009 to 2013. It made Russia’s atomic energy agency one of the world’s largest uranium producers and brought Russian President Vladimir Putin "closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain." So, what was Clinton’s role? Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. At the time, the United States was seeking to "reset" its relationship with Russia and trying to get the Kremlin on board with its Iran nuclear deal. The national security issue at stake in the Uranium One deal was not primarily about nuclear weapons proliferation, the Times reported, because the United States and Russia had for years cooperated on that front, with Russia sending enriched fuel from decommissioned warheads to be used in American nuclear power plants in return for raw uranium. Instead, it concerned American dependence on foreign uranium sources. While the United States gets one-fifth of its electrical power from nuclear plants, it produces only around 20 percent of the uranium it needs. Trump’s previous claim on the topic, made in June 2016, was that Clinton’s State Department "approved the transfer of 20 percent of America’s uranium holdings to Russia, while nine investors in the deal funneled $145 million to the Clinton Foundation." PolitiFact National rated it Mostly False -- mainly because there is no evidence of a quid pro quo. The State Department did approve the Uranium One deal, but it didn’t act unilaterally. It was one of nine U.S. government agencies, plus independent federal and state nuclear regulators, that had to sign off on the deal. It's as easy as that to respond..... Savvy? |

Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Hillary Rodham Clinton. As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation.

That's not at all how this played out. Facts are facts - they don't care if you believe them or not. The Earth is round - it just is. There are some that don't believe it. It doesn't make the Earth any less round. How many hearings, how much scrutiny, how far does it need to go? If she was so terribly guilty, what happened to tweety's promise to "lock her up"? C'mon - there was more time spent on the Benghazi hearings (political witch hunt) than on the actual 9/11 investigations!! No smoking gun.... no intentional malice... nothing was found. Don't you find it strange that there's been zero/zip/nada from the right about any further investigations on hillary, Benghazi, her emails, the clinton foundation, etc?? It's all just political BS. |

Need I repeat - this is not about criticism, these are facts. I have plenty of criticism for hillary! I have plenty for Obama and Bernie and my mayor and my alderman and the people who comment on here - but that's not what this is. Going back to my original post - it's a fact that the deal that exxon was making with russia is worth half a trillion dollars. It just is. It's a fact that our current Secretary of State, tilly, used to work for exxon. It's a fact that there has now been a request to lift the sanctions on russia to permit the deal to go through. This isn't criticism, this is fact. My criticism comes BECAUSE of the these facts. I criticise the sheep on the far right allowing tweety to fleece America. I criticise the likes of the GOP in Congress that let this happen and don't call out obvious wrongdoing when it's within their own party. I criticise the democrats who do the same. So when you bring up hillary and how "guilty" she is... you're not basing it on facts - YOU are just criticising. Just own it. We get that you hate her. It's ok, I hate tweety - but in the case of him - there are FACTS that support my position (maralago, his constant tweets, his cabinet, his thin skin, etc.) . hillary has been scrutinized for decades, she's been the subject of numerous hearings, spent decades in public office and yet, nothing has been proved about any wrongdoing. Speculation doesn't count in a court. |

I like math because numbers don't lie. 1 + 1 = 2 I forget the expression Neil DeGrasse Tyson used, but to paraphrase, it just is. It can be proven. By anyone. Scientists work to create these theories and either prove or disprove them. Other scientists work to disprove others, or confirm their findings. Galileo theorized the Earth was round. Later, it was directly observed. So, some scientist comes by with this crazy theory. Let's call him "Al". He theorizes that energy is equal to mass times the speed of light in a vacuum, squared. As we learn about our own environment, this theory proves true. Quote:
So, this was a theory. It can be proved time and time again. Where am I going with this? Something stinks with Hillary and I can't prove or disprove it. I'm just supposed to rely on some "experts"? Do you recall the campaign regarding pomegranate juice? Turns out it's fantastic for you, cures ED, boosts immunity, heart disease. This was a campaign launched by Pom, a company that markets and sells pomegranate juice. Little biased, no? I'll go one further... now that time has elapsed, independent studies have been performed.

A study that was shown to be put out by the bottlers/marketers of POM juice were found out. Good on the truth! The way it should be. So who do you trust in the hillary scrutiny? Are you yourself part of the investigation? Have you ever met hillary or any of the clintons? Have you ever sat on a judiciary committee investigating her? See the point I'm making? You can't compare one instance of marketing scheme to decades of being in the public eye. Is hillary a politician?? YES!! Has she made shady deals (like every other politician)? YES!! Did she have someone killed? NO!! Did she willingly let 4 people in Benghazi die? NO!! Did she use her personal email server when she shouldn't have? YES!! Did she actually break the law? NO!! Was she stupid? YES!! It just boils down to - who do you trust? Do you trust those who have accused her? Do you trust those that have questioned her? Do you trust those that have reported on her? Do you trust those that have run campaigns against her? Do you trust the findings of the committees that investigated her? Who do you trust? No, don't believe everything on the internet (referring to the POM story). But at the same time, don't confuse fact with conjecture. It's a fact that hillary has been under scrutiny for the better part of the last few decades. It's a fact that many, people in DC hate the clintons - hillary in particular (I'm no fan of her myself). Just because you hate someone doesn't make them guilty. |
Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by Paraquat on 04/20/17 at 11:10:12 I don't trust anyone. I don't trust her. I don't trust her accusers. Now, at what point can you make an observation and arrive at your own theory? There are an awful lot of dead people surrounding both the Clinton's. More so than surround me. There has never been any doubt to congress that I ever lied about anything. The doubt exists with her, even though it's been supposedly quelled. Submitting this as empirical evidence, I can theorize that there are some shady doin's going on. I can't prove it. I can't disprove it. But I know enough to steer clear. --Steve |

OK then - so you trust nothing but math? You have no trust in anything else? No trust in the people YOU voted for? No trust in people like police (all those crooked cops, right?). No trust in a jury convicting or acquitting someone? No trust of anyone outside your control? Seriously... can you answer any these questions? Don't feel obligated to - I'm just using them as an example. The point is - regardless of what you think, the judicial process has found hillary innocent of any wrongdoing - be it the clinton foundation or Benghazi or her emails. Because YOU don't trust her is on you - not the general populace. You can shower your criticism all day and that's cool. But the facts are the facts. She has never been found guilty of any offense worthy of conviction. Full stop. Whether or not you believe it doesn't change those facts. (the GOP had 9 hearings on Benghazi and found no negligence or malice) Let me state for the record that I do not support hillary. I'm glad she's been put to pasture and her career in politics is over. She's the reason Bernie Sanders got the shaft. She represents the establishment democrats. Their time is over. But again, just because I can't stand her doesn't make her guilty of anything but being a politician. |
Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by Paraquat on 04/21/17 at 09:24:37 I can absolutely answer them. I don't trust anything or anyone. I needed something machined. I bought a Bridgeport. I needed something welded. I bought a Miller TIG welder. I needed something turned, I bought a Hendey lathe. I wanted to port and polish a race head for a car, I did it. I built a flow bench. I flow tested it. I wanted to rebuild an engine, I did it. I outsourced the bore and hone but I have a set of telescoping micrometers and I was able to confirm the dimensions, roundness, and squareness to the deck. How do I trust my measurements were good? Pre inspected the set master and double check the calibration on the tool. I observe or have influence over these factors. I didn't vote. I opted to follow George Carlin's idea: Quote:
I don't trust the police one bit. My 9mm Hydroshoks are 1496 FPS. When my dog alerted my neighbor that the house across the street was being broken into, it took the police 45 minutes to respond. When my friend, in the same town, had a brick thrown through her front window, it took the police over an hour to respond even though the station is a 5 minute drive at normal speeds. In both instances, the suspect had fled long before the police responded to the scene. One night, I had 4 or 5 guys getting rowdy in my street at 3AM. Pounding nip bottles, discarding them in lawns and in the streets. One urinated in my front yard. I called the police. They were no where to be seen. I was working pizza delivery in my youth. I had a bunch of town maps in my car and worked late hours. I got pulled over. I was questioned why I was out late, why I had the maps. The officer said I had a license plate light out. I asked if I could see it. He said yes. I opened the door and he slammed the door on my foot with his hand on his sidearm and yelled to stay in the vehicle. I explained that I just asked him if I could see it and that he gave me his consent. He suggested I check it at home on my own time, and get out of here. Guess what I didn't need to buy the next day? A license plate light. Because it worked fine. Someone backed into my girlfriends car. The officer on the scene was someone who went to high school with my girlfriend. He let his guard down and started talking to us casually. He said if he ever sees a suspicious car and wants to pull them over, he just tells them they have a marker light out. He added that people are stupid and don't even question what that is. I witnessed these events first hand. Are you going to tell me I'm wrong? A person is smart. People are stupid. I could always review court records for myself, if I cared. Public records. Nothing to hide. I will assume you ride a motorcycle. That should be evidence enough that you can't trust anyone else on the road. Based on all my observations of her I have arrived at the conclusion that she is fishy. --Steve |

When I was a little kid, I had to go to the barbershop and have a haircut. The barber, while running the clippers, nicked my ear and it hurt! He got the top cartilage and it bled a lot! (I still have the little scar). Well, I obviously needed another haircut at some point and time - what was I supposed to do? Never get a haircut?

Denying it as long as the sanctions are in place might be intended to influence Putin to reconsider continuing the things that got the sanctions imposed in the first place. Everything isn't always just about the partisan bickering in US politics. "World ain't what it seems, is it Gunny?" |
Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/21/17 at 15:07:29 As if the Clinton crime family shared a dime.. You do know what Dividends are, right? Stockholders earn,, and spend into the economy. Yes, I Am smarter than That, and you, too, apparently. That would have been a win, win. More oil on the global market, better relationship with Russia, and the economic boost created by the corporate wealth. |

Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/21/17 at 21:20:45 You're not thinking. Stockholders, STOCKHOLDERS, earn Dividends..and BUY houses and cars and gasoline, and, and, and AND Someone is gonna do it. Why avoid the benefits? You prefer a different country help Russia develop a huge oilfield? What about how much that would repair the relationship with Russia? This is a dumb move. |

Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by WebsterMark on 04/22/17 at 05:20:54 Corporate success and profits are what keep this nation, this world, afloat and moving forward. Taking away that will turns us into Venezuela or the $hitholes in Africa. Of course trickle down economics works. The owner of my company ownes his own island in the Baltic Sea, a yacht to float to one of his 7 houses. He also employs 3800 people around the world and pays based on output. You don't think that's trickle down? Anyone not capable of seeing that is letting their partisanship block common sense and logic. What you perceive to be the wealthy running this country is what exists in the Middle East. A small number of extremely wealthy with the supprt of laws and governments that prevent the formation of corporations with investments, dividens, etc... One of you who claim tricky down doesn't work, tell me the name of the poor man person you work for? (being a Federal Worker for the US Government means you work for a bankrupt owner so that doesn't count.) |
Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/22/17 at 08:33:39 And No, bot, I don't see things differently based on Who does it. Right and wrong, smart and stupid are what they are. Maybe you don't remember the things I've said about Not trusting trump and criticisms leveled at him. Explain How I would change my position if Hillary had made this call. Your Accusation didn't elaborate. Why would I Like what I call STUPID because she did it? Or, maybe you didn't really read what I said, and just Projected Your total hypocrisy on me. |

You seem to forget how trickle down economics has worked... it hasn't. The only real good that profit can do is by investing in America. Period. Yeah, you can make a handful of people rich by paying them dividends, or you can invest, grow and employ more with your profits. If you are only beholden to your stockholders - that's a problem. No.. I take that back... That IS the problem. Further, you seem to think that we are somehow going to change vlad into Mr. Rogers by striking an oil deal.... that is laughable!!! Yeah, maybe we should have been friends with hitler - I'm sure things would have been much different!! LMAO!!!!! |

Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by MnSpring on 04/22/17 at 16:22:45 “...ask not what your Country can do for you - ask what you can do for your Country" Awesome JFK Quote. Yet, “…ask what you can do for your Country…” Means: (According to the, ’Snowflakes’, and, ‘Fairy Dust Sprinklers’) Standing in the street and crying, because you don’t get, FREE. Protesting and NOT, knowing,” WHAT”, you are protesting, and causing ANY KIND of Violence/Destruction you can. Dishing, every chance one gets, to SLAM, the POTUS. Or does it mean: If you have a objection, state it, in a way that is understood, and apply a alternative. Protest, in a sane, rational way. But, I guess, the, ’Snowflakes’, and, ‘Fairy Dust Sprinklers’, have a different view. |
Title: Re: The $500B Man (told ya) Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/22/17 at 20:14:07 Removing a roadblock to drilling and putting oil on the open market, pushing Russia towards energy independence, means They BUY less oil out of the OPEC cartel. That, in turn, lowers competition For the oil that is produced and sold on the global market. The stockholders, people all across the country, get PAID dividends. That money is saved or spent into the economy. The People benefit. Your complaint about Trickle Down economics is nothing new to me or anything I disagree with. This is Not trickle down. https://www.thebalance.com/trickle-down-economics-theory-effect-does-it-work-3305572 |
