Total utter rubbish"

"Some estimates suggest the total economic cost of EU membership is around 11 per cent of our annual GDP – which makes it something like £200billion."

That's a quote.

Most of the comments are ad hominem attacks devoid of logical argument. Objectively, I think the UK would be better off outside of the ill-fated EU. Membership in the EU costs the UK approximately 11% of her GDP. To a socialist, that may sound like a bargain, but not to those being bled dry.

It's a shame that Mass has such ridiculous firearms laws, actually.

I like Ikeda generally, but I DON'T like having to navigate the maze. I do like walking through the displays, but wish they would simplify the floor layout so that it would be easier to go in, go to the section you want, and then head to the register without having to walk through every section.

Posted in: Anti-Trump Republicans seek to recruit third-party candidate See in context

" One outcome, though rare, may be that no candidate crosses the necessary threshold of 270 votes in the U.S. Electoral College. In that case, the vote for the next president would pass to the U.S. House of Representatives, currently controlled by Republicans."

That's likely the plan. The question now is who will be the useful idiot?

Posted in: Cruz fights for survival as Trump eyes Indiana knockout See in context

The rabid Trump-haters here are hilarious. Do you even actually believe the malarkey you write about Trump? If so, I feel sorry for you. And on the Democrat side, it's no better. On one hand there's Sanders who is as economically illiterate as can possibly be(every economist has dismissed Sanders' notions as ludicrous) and Hillary who has perjured herself so many times that it boggles the mind as to why she's not already in a Federal Penitentiary.

Vote NOBODY for President 2016.Lead yourself!

It is indeed pathetic. Not one reasonable choice in either main party.

Posted in: Japanese journalists accuse gov't of pressuring media See in context

Abe and his corrupt cronies are so afraid of people telling or hearing the truth, or even opposing opinions. Are they, the pols, going to run to their "safety spaces" like crybabies? Journalists have cowered so long that it may now be too late.

Posted in: Trump wins Florida, loses Ohio; Clinton wins Florida; Rubio pulls out of Republican race See in context

As much vitriol has been sent towards Trump, I find it ridiculously hypocritical that a comment about Mrs Bill's barking be deemed "vicious".

Congrats to Trump and more importantly his supporters... in spite of the full-court press to suppress the voice of the here unto disenfranchised.

Posted in: Trump, Clinton look to extend leads as five more states vote See in context

Cruz won Kansas, but Trump was a close second, and that will likely repeat in Maine. But that's like being the big fish in a little pond. Rubio is the little minnow.

Did the Okinawans ever agree to the relocation of Futenma to Henoko, or was that just Tokyo agreeing with USA?

“My lips are sealed!” No, no, no. What Shillary said was, "Ma lips ah sealed" in an affected attempt at a "black" accent.

Posted in: Yellen: Persistent economic weakness could slow rate hikes See in context

"She did concede, though, that negative rates, which central banks in Japan and Europe have recently imposed, are a tool the Fed has at least studied." Which in Yellen-speak means they'll follow suit eventually. Yes, her response was indeed "deer in the headlights" when pressed about her non-compliance with the subpoenas.

Posted in: Japan's regional banks to bear brunt of BOJ bombshell See in context

Just another of the many signs of the abject failure of Abe-moron-omics. Let's see, NIRP failed to produce the expected results in EUROZONE, Sweden, Switzerland, and Denmark (which has since abandoned NIRP), but the buffoon Kuroda expects a different result in Japan? He should just go ahead and let his one above ground foot join the other six-feet under.

100-plus FBI agents investigating a person tends to not bode well for that person. The skeletons in the closet will speak volumes.

Posted in: Clinton confronts rival Sanders as Iowa polls tighten See in context

Trump, Clinton, and Sanders is a 3-way battle of the bewbs. Clinton will be headed to the Big House for her email fiasco. Trump and Sanders would be well-suited to be bunkmates at a nuthouse. The truth is that there is no "good" candidate.

Posted in: If you found a bag with a large sum of money in it, say 10 million yen, in some isolated spot, and there was nothing to indicate who the owner was, what would you do with it? See in context

Straw man argument. I've found money and other items several times, turned them in to the nearby koban, and never heard back from any of them. Not even the supposed 10%. No, I didn't follow up because of the further inconvenience.
