So Olbermnn violated company policy? Since you mention all of those FOX stars, then it seems that they have a different company policy!

Very simple really since there appears to be no "law" preventing it!

So just why did you even mention their names?


That is my "fun fact of the day!"

"What fact? You merely pointed out the obvious (which you did not even know until after you read my post"

Correcto! I did not know nor care! And it rather seems Herr Olbermnn (obviously a NAZI?) did not care either, since he obviously broke the company rules!

You see to easily forget that News is a form of entertainment! If it was not entertainment, then the news might well be "five citizens murdered today!, four banks were robbed, six women were raped, two school buses wrecked and all aboard were killed!, two famous actors died, as well as one famous politician", five houses burned to the groud, Air Bus crashes into hospital and all 2,000 died, etc.!

The difference is that the names, places, and other descriptive items make this rather dull news entertainment! Notice that the basic facts are correct,but there are a lot of possible questions to be asked and answered for this "news" to be entertaining!

A news broadcast or news-paper with nothing but headlines is merely "attention grabing" if you find out no more information then you will tend to disregard the headlines!

You know I am correct about the above!

Quite a remarkable post...  Especially since it seems to rely on CNN for data.  Of course we all know that CNN is a fairly liberal news machine... but I guess that doesn't count, huh genius?

Respectfully, this thread was about the "Black Church"... not about your hero.

I didn't change the topic... I merely remarked that people of color were susceptible to his obvious 'mystical trickery', and that they would serve the world better if they reached out to their kin in Africa.

But... Why do you assume I mined data from FOX News? 

TGS you did notice that even I admitted that the 200 million dollars per day was a gross overestimate, and I presented my opinion that the real cost was more in the area of 50 million dollars per day!

See buddy, I am supporting you now!

Well OK we will split the difference and call it 20-25 million per day

There is such a thing as inflation!

Regards,

Please check GS employee pay and GI pay from 1990 to 2010? Or don't you even know the abbreviations that I used?

And that does not count the inflation that has occured in Pakistan, India, Indonesia over the same period!

I retired in 1996, and thought I made pretty good money, but that magic word that you deny called "inflation" has made that pay somewhat normal/ lower mid level, in Federal Service today!

And you just have to know that Military Pay has increased even faster! After all these men and women are now "vols!"

In other words, the world today is more dangerous to our President than it was in the 1990's! And the real cost of most everything has risen considerably! Surely I might well have exagerated the costs! But you seem to "low-ball" the same!

Again you speak from a point of mis-education or mis-direction!

Unless you show some spirit of "getting along" then I will mostly ignore you from now on!

I am sure that will please red clay also!

It will also identify you as an enemy of both me and the USA, rather than a co-historist, looking for the answers!

Regards,
