Dopers do not fascinate me! The inevitable result of their idiocy is death, and they know it. I don't care.

Posted in: Japan posts top growth in clean energy spending See in context

Hope you enjoy your Lamborghini energy. Not sure who in the world will buy the products produced with those energy costs. Likely more expansion for our Honda plants here in Ohio, Toyota in Kentucky, Subaru in Indiana, Nissan in Tennessee, Mercedes in Mississippi, BMW in South Carolina. Unless the Democrats can win an election and work on destroying our economy more effectively than they have accomplished so far.

Posted in: U.S. and EU impose sanctions as Crimea turns to Moscow See in context

What will the eu do If Putin doubles the price of gas as a sanction back. And where are they going to borrow the billions needed to prop up the bankrupt bottle throwers now in charge in Ukraine, their banks are broke from lending to their own bozo states in Greece etc. And how many Russian sanctionees were planning a trip to Miami anyway? Will St Barts turn away their money? Putin must be thrilled to have most of Ukraine off the client list.

Posted in: Nobel laureate calls handling of stem cell research data sloppy See in context

There will always be problems with government paid for science when the politicians require scientific support for their already decided power grabs. Hard to beat the outright fakery here, but even the now popular "survey says" science to support political plans is full of potential for abuse. Asking those who depend on you for funding to support your political plans with scientific "voting" leads to entirely predictable results not requiring research to prove.

Posted in: Reinventing scapegoats – rightwing populism across Europe See in context

Adding the Tea (Taxed Enough Already) Party to a list of violent racist group is outrageous. Only a left wing zealot looking for a scapegoat for the failures of the current Socialist Democratic government in the USA (in control of the the Congress since 2007, the Presidency since 2009) would spread such villainous lies. If some Americans oppose illegal immigration (currently 11 Million illegals in the USA) it hardly compares to pogroms popular in Europe. And how would Japan react to 3 Million illegal immigrants if they were crowding their schools and emergency rooms, lucky you are to have no land borders.

The Obama administration is effectively doubling the number of lower income Americans eligible for Medicaid coverage. The prescription drug overdose level will likely double right along with that increase.

Posted in: Ukraine: Don't repeat past mistakes See in context

The Marshall plan was successful because if was enforced by the US army. The plan outlined in this article is to assure that Ukraine will remain an economic basket case with the same socialist guarantee of economic failure now in force in all of Western Europe. When America succeeds in throwing out our present Marxist leadership, the economic engine reawakened will have the Euros whimpering and the clients like the bottle throwing Maidan government will be left high and dry.

Posted in: Obama thrust into role as leader of West See in context

Actually, Obama was facing a likely election defeat in Congressional elections this fall. The tendency for voters to rally around the leader in office, may have him sending a thank you note to Putin. As for Crimea as a part of Ukraine, actually only since Khruschev gave it to a Ukraine that he ruled anyway. Even in the USSR breakup, Russia has held onto the bases for its navy there. Now that Ukraine is a bankrupt welfare state, wonder how that vote will go with the Crimeans.

Posted in: Annexation of Crimea: East Asian implications See in context

While we are in a remembering mood, don't forget that the Crimea was added to the Ukraine by Khruschev at a time when he had iron control over both states, hardly a "old sod" part of the country. That the Russians want it back now that they are successful market economy and Ukraine is a bankrupt welfare state is hardly surprising. The kiev bottle throwers now in charge, would be in control of an army, except that the Ukraine disbanded most of their army in return for empty promises from the Euros who have more empty promises on their lips today.

Posted in: U.S. lawmakers, authorities clash over marijuana rules See in context

Sell heroin at the kombini, Y100 for high, Y300 for super high, Y500 for lethal. Stupid dopers will all buy lethal as they will be sure they can "handle" it. Here in the states we are doubling the number of "poor" people on Medicaid, they will be right down to the pain clinic to get their Oxycotin pills to sell to each other. Pill overdose deaths should about double. Couldn't happen to nicer folks. (American poor people only have 55 inch LCD tvs)

There is no "nuclear deal", the Iranians have not agreed to do anything. Just Kerry and Obama doing wishful thinking and lying to the public as usual.

Hey miserable one, where do you find this stuff! Hoover was 12 years out of power, from the wrong party, disgraced in the public's eyes as the "cause" of the depression. No one cared what he thought then or now.

I hope the best for Tanaka, but in the majors any new pitcher is not truly tested until his second time around the league. If the hitters cannot solve him by then, he will be accepted as a big time talent.

Posted in: Obama, Hollande speak out on Iran sanctions See in context

Let's see, Obama and Hollande join in alliance of diplomacy: maybe they should sign the accord with Iran in Munich. When these two Marxists are finished destroying their own countries, they can just turn over the remains to the mullahs.

Turns out sports heroes are human. Lots of folks without enough fame to sell newspapers or get notice online go through the same troubles. You don't need to experience the highs of winning to get to the lows of being human.

The Kennedy's generally have done the same to the USA as John did to Marilyn Monroe. If we can ship them around the globe as ambassadors it seems like a great way to get them out of the country.

Posted in: Obama's Asia policy set back by Democrat See in context

Reid (known at "Dingy Harry" to conservatives) is not up for election this fall, and anyway represents Nevada, a rare state with substantial union membership due to high numbers of unionized casino workers. Outside of a few states, unions only represent government workers, overall only about 10% of American workers are union members. And of course after 8 years of Democratic hegemony in congress millions of Americans are no longer working at all. The smallest percentage of the population is working in 100 years.

Posted in: Biden spent hour on phone asking Abe not to visit Yasukuni shrine See in context

The recent book by the former secretary of defense pointed out that Biden has been on the wrong side of every policy issue for 20 years when hindsight reveals the truth. So ignoring his advice is the smartest thing to do in any situation.

Posted in: China steps up appeal to West in Japan propaganda battle See in context

Japan's crimes against the world are ALL at least 69 years in the past. The Communist regime in China killed nearly as many of its own citizens to gain power, and many millions more to keep that power, and all in times closer to the present day. Anyone remember Tienaman Square? How about the Great leap forward and thousands resettled and starved, all to preserve the power of the current Red leadership and all more recent than Japan's bad actions. That someone redirected the government there to irrelevance and let the people loose to use the market without much regulation is the only reason they have enough money to throw their weight around today.

Posted in: Kerry heading to France, Kuwait with focus on Syria See in context

"Secretary of Unreality" is the assessment of Kerry in the press. An "agreement" with Iran where they didn't agree to anything, a Palestinian peace process where neither side will agree with him. A shame he flies on Air Force jets, at least he could be racking up frequent flier miles,they would be worth more than all his agreements.

Posted in: More U.S. states could follow Colorado lead on marijuana See in context

Colorado will soon learn that pot is not like alcohol in that a still in the back yard is a major undertaking compared to some plants in the basement. If possession is legal will they really be able to prevent the proliferation of supply seeking to cash in by avoiding the taxes they think will be so lucrative. Can employers prevent doped up employees from injuring themselves and others on the job if pot is legal. How soon before a breathalyzer for doped driving is invented. Our tort attorneys make millions suing bars that overserve alcohol when crashes happen, how about the pot store. More questions than anwers.

Posted in: New Zealand's bold experiment with regulating recreational drugs See in context

The death toll in Ohio, USA from prescription drug overdose alone exceeds the auto crash death toll. Many Medicaid recipients depend on selling pain pills obtained from pain "clinics' to supplement their income. (mainly oxycotin) The proposed expansion of Medicaid under Obamacare should expand availability and perhaps cut the prices, but unlikely to kill enough to cut costs significantly, or to show the authorities what they are doing to the people they are "helping". These are drug company made opioids, not the blackmarket highs.
